Character Creation

Jump to navigation Jump to search
The first screen when creating a new character.

Character Creation allows the player to customize their character before the story campaign begins. Various aspects of the character can be adjusted, some of which cannot be changed later in the game yet. If the player wishes to change these aspects, they need to reset their character via the Settings menu. Currently only one character can be created per account. A separate character slot will become available for the planned Nuzlocke feature.

Body settings[edit]

Various options to change the morphological appearance of the character are available. These settings are currently unique to character creation and cannot be adjusted later in the game.

Body type[edit]

Two body types are available, representing a feminine and masculine morphology. They are not tied to pronouns and do not reflect sex or gender, so they can be freely chosen depending on personal preference. All cosmetics are compatible with all body types, with only minor differences in some cases.

Skin color[edit]

A wide range of skin colors is available.

Style[edit]

Four style options are available, representing idle stances and running animations. Note: that the stances and running animations are associated with each other and cannot be selected separately.

Head shape[edit]

Several head shape options can be selected. They differ mostly in the lower half, with focus on the chin.

Face[edit]

Face settings provide a range of variations for eyebrows, eyes, nose, and mouth. Note that these are associated with each face option and cannot be selected separately.

Eye color[edit]

A wide range of eye colors is available.

Cosmetics[edit]

Unlike the other settings, cosmetics can be changed later in the game. While most cosmetics and dyes available in character creation may be purchased for Feathers in Tamer's Paradise after finishing the game, a few are available sooner for Pansuns in boutiques. Cosmetics selected in the character creation menu cannot be traded.
