CHARACTER CREATION
!!DISCLAIMER!!
Let's just keep people in mind and be respectful. As adults young and old, we've given you the freedom to pretty much make most of everything up on your own. But keep in mind: don't post anything TOO over the top. This is a basic forum rule!
Character Creation: How To
To make your character, please copy the form below and paste it in the Character Sheet board as a new thread with the options filled out. Keep in mind where you are choosing as your starting colony; each starting colony has different living arrangements. Please make sure you make the correct choice on this. Knowing the details of each colony will also help you decide.
Additionally, please check the Starting Guide for information. It may also be helpful to check the Skills page and the Items/Prices page.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ FORM START (START COPYING) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It cannot have an in-game value of more than 50 buttons (the currency of World Fallen).

Johnson and Wellness Hospital: small patient room
Forest Camp: Small Tent
Harrison Manor: Servant closet
MacClellan Ranch: Single horse stable
Richland Heights: Single room in a four room house
KR-3 Satellite Center: Small Closet
Revolutia: Hammock in the Sleeping Quarters with a small space for gear
Choose the right one!]
Skills: [Every starting player is given 50 skill points to put into any skill of their choice. It is suggested to not put all 50 in one skill, but to spread them out wisely, so your character has more of a chance at survival. Putting 30 in one skill may be a judicious choice as it will put you right into intermediate. 10,10,10,10,10 may alse be a decent choice, as its the most well rounded. Anything more spread out might dilute the points too much. Check the skills page to find out more.]
