I think a waste is your best bet with these numbers.  Once you
train ST to 13, you'll get all the great waste weapons, and (s)he should
have good endurance to start with, and a decent chance at expert attack.

However, I can see the attraction of branching out.  Most offensives
would be crippled by the speed, although if you shifted two points from DF
to ST, it could make a decent basher, but you'd be better off with a more
defensive style.  Parry-strike would be a definite possibility, as would
parry-lunge. Really, though, this set-up would be best used (other than as
a waste) as either a total parry or an AB.  Ideally, you'd want a higher
WT for an AB, because learns are vital, and maybe a slightly higher CN
but that shouldn't be a problem.  CN would also be nice for the TP, but
there WL is more important than WT, so you don't have that problem.  Both
these styles want a low speed, so that is an advantage.  I'd go with the
TP, but some don't like that style (wonder why?) so the AB is another nice
option.
