The inventory might be a good idea. As for defining certain skills, the very point of free-style RPGs is that characters can do anything they could logically do. (though some do it better than others. It might not seem like it, but the stats you sent me have actually modified your success rates in quite a lot of activities. That also takes care of over/underpowered characters, you don't notice but your dice rolls are affected from time to time).
