Your Agility score gives you an idea of how quick your character is. Not just in terms of their ability to run fast (though that's certainly a part of it), but also the speed of their reactions, and their hand-eye coordination. (In D&D terms, it's a combination of Speed and Dexterity.) If you want your character to move like Bruce Lee, you'd be wise to consider having a high Agility score.
Uses[]
Since your Agility score relates to how well you can react to unexpected and nasty surprises, you'll be checking this score a lot. Starting out with a high Agility will also give you bonuses to your and affect how well you do in combat, as (quite obviously) being able to dodge when your enemy takes a swing at you avoids significant damage. Starting out with a low Agility score will also have a bad effect upon your combat prowess.
Affected skills[]
Archery, Horsemanship, Thievery, Weaponry (and subskills), Unarmed Combat
