Well, you could have a ChooseChar function, in which it gets the players choice, and depending on that choice sets the attributes.
like, for example:

Code:

int agility;
int strength;
ChooseChar ()
{
   enum Race (orc, human, elf);
   Race choice;
   //get choice
       switch (choice)
       {
       case orc:
         agility = 3;
         strength = 10;
         break;
       case human:
         agility = 5;
         strength = 5;
         break;
       case elf:
         agility = 8;
         strength = 4;
         break;
       }
Player player (strength, agility); //create player with attributes
}

or something like that.
