You may take a look at blobman.
Compared to that, your parameters list is way to small.
You need to provide:
angle at the hip (2D), knee and ankle, with tortion (both 2D), as well 
as the position of each toes (3D), for each leg.
a bend angle (forward-back and sideway) and tortion angle for the torso.
angle got the shoulder (2D), elbow (2D), wrist (3D) and fingers 
positions for each fingers (4 values per finger including the thumb) for 
both arms.
mouth opening and thongue position
eyes orientation and distance
facial expression
ears location

That's about it for the positioning.
Next, some details:
skin, eyes and hairs colours.
lips and nipples colour.
sex, with optionaly breasts size, form, placement,...
hight
weight
weight distribution
divergence of leg and harms length relative to the average.
muscularity/build
age from child, or even new born, to adult.
...

That's a *LOT* of parameters!
