Creating Your Character

Your character is the point of view you carry into a world.

I'll ready a hero

Choose I'll ready a hero for the fastest route into the opening scene. Creation OS prepares a fitting background, strengths, equipment, and abilities, then lets you step in now.

Use it when the exact numbers matter less than getting into the story.

Author them

Choose author them to begin the Rite of Becoming. The Rite asks more questions about identity, history, temperament, strengths, and starting style. Use it when you want finer control before play begins.

Equipment and abilities

Starting gear and abilities are shaped by the world and your role. Open the OmniCodex with Q, then use:

Identity > Loadout for equipment
Identity > Abilities for learned techniques and powers
Team for companions and their gear

Growth through play

Relevant abilities improve through use. Equipment bonuses matter when an action depends on them. Milestones can also change health, capability, and standing.

There is no manual stat editor after creation. A character becomes specific through decisions, consequences, equipment, and repeated action.
