The Basics
You're creating a new character and might be struggling to make it look decent.

So how does this guide help? Very simple, you'll follow a very simple set of instructions to get to a custom template. There are 3 templates for male characters and 3 for females. And if you're still feeling lost after that, you can always follow one of the 9 finished suggestions for each of the templates.

54 Finished Examples - Have a look!
Just want a good looking character? Pick one of these 54 examples!

If you just want a finished characters, have a look at this huge picture[i.imgur.com] and pick one of the 54 characters from there!

Example: You want to make the Female Preset 3 Type B

Instructions: Go the Female Preset 3 section, make the base preset and then skip to the part where you start making that particular type.

You can always use the main 6 presets to make your own characters from there. It's a lot easier than starting from the default presets.

I thought the whole point of character creation was to make a hideous abomination.

yeah just adding to the pile of people with eyes you can see these look as ugly as the default lol. NOT a guide on how to use the character creator, just a bunch of ugly presets you could do better yourself

I'm still spamming random until my guy is toxic waste.
