Upon clicking the Character Setup option on the main menu, you will be faced with the character creation menu. This guide will detail the options available to you. To ease navigation, it will be broken down into categories for each individual tab. You may use up to 40 character slots, each containing a unique character. Ensure you click Save slot after making your changes, or they will be lost.

General

The General tab is the main screen for character creation.

Option Explanation
Name The name of your character - this shows up on your ID and when you speak. Refer to the Rules for naming guidelines.
Gender This is your character's apparent biological sex. It has no influence on gameplay beyond which sprite your character uses.
Age The age of your character in years. For humans, the minimum is 18 and the maximum is 100.
Species This is your species. Alien species require a whitelist application.
Blood Type As it is in the real world, your blood type influences medical care in tissue and blood donations.
Skin Tone This allows you to modify the color of your skin. For humans, it is represented by a number, where 1 is very pale, and 220 is very dark. The default is 35.
Needs Glasses If enabled, a screen blur will be applied when you are not wearing glasses. Glasses can be obtained in the Loadout or from the Infirmary.
Limbs This menu allows you to replace your limbs with mechanical prosthetics or to remove them entirely. Mechanical prosthetics act differently than biological limbs in several ways, most notably reacting violently to electromagnetic pulses. It is not recommended to remove your legs without replacing them.
Internal Organs In addition to your limbs, you can choose to replace internal organs with mechanical prosthetics. These, also, react violently to EMP.
Height and Build Allows you to adjust the height and build of your character.
Hair, Facial, Eyes These menus allow you to customize your character further by changing their hair, facial hair, eyes, and their colors. Refer to the Uniform Guide for grooming restrictions for military characters. You can change your hairstyle in-game with the "Tie Hair" verb.
Body Markings Lets you customize your character with various tattoos, bio-mods, hair fades, and other body markings.
Equipment This section of settings allows you to customize your undergarments, choose a backpack type, and adjust your suit sensor settings. Fleet personnel should wear PT tank tops below their utility uniform.
Flavor Flavor text allows you to enter text which will be viewable in-game whenever another player examines your character. This allows you to further explain your character's appearance if you choose to use it.

Background

The Background tab allows you to change details about your character's backstory, including your home system, citizenship, faction, and religion. The tab also allows you to adjust your known languages and your in-character Records.

Option Explanation
Culture Allows you to adjust your character's culture - the planet and people they grew up around.
Residence Allows you to adjust your character's residence, i.e. where they currently live.
Faction Allows you to adjust your faction, i.e. who your character works for.
Beliefs Allows you to adjust your character's belief system and religion.
Languages These are the languages your character can speak and understand. You can utilize the 'check known languages' command in the 'IC' category once you're in the game for a reminder.
Records These are text fields where you can enter information accessible in-game on records computers. For example, the Security Records are viewable on the security record console and could contain information such as past arrests or convictions. Filling this information out is not required. See the Paperwork Simulator for templates and instructions.
Other Lets you set a custom email address and password, if desired.

Occupation

The Occupation tab determines which, if any, jobs you can be. It also contains settings to change your branch of service and your rank and allows you to make skill selections for each job.

Most jobs are available to the Expeditionary Corps, and it is recommended that new players select that branch. Clicking on any crossed out job will explain the required options for that job to become selectable. If your first character is not a civilian, you should to set their Rank to Explorer or to Crewman.

Once you have selected a job, click the name of the job to open the Skills panel. Skills have mechanical effects so make sure you set them before joining! Generally, the older your character is the more experienced they are.

For your first character it is advised that you pick something like a Crewman, Deck Technician, Steward, or Janitor. Select "Engineering Trainee/Trainee Medical Technician" if you want to get started in those departments!

It is recommended to make a new character for every job.

Job selection works on a priority system, where [HIGH] is the job you most want to play, [MEDIUM] is the jobs you wish to play if your [HIGH] job is unavailable, and [LOW] are the jobs you wish to play if both your [HIGH] and [MEDIUM] selections are not available. The [NEVER] option is the default and prevents you from being assigned that job by the assignment system. At round start, all players who have selected the Ready option on the main menu will be entered into the sorting system.

Roles

The Roles tab is where you can define which special characters you can become. This is used similarly to the job assignment system described above. Please refer to Antagonist Roles for details on the various antagonist types.

For your first game, it is recommended you keep these options set to NEVER.

The Roles tab also contains additional settings related to antagonists:

  • The Uplink Type menu allows you to change which of your standard items will be converted into the uplink, a tool which allows you to create special and powerful items to assist you on your mission, whatever it may be. Please refer to the Guide to Uplinks page for an explanation of the individual options.
  • Exploitable Information is similar to the Records explained above. It is accessible on the uplink provided to Traitors and certain other antagonists and could contain information on things such as your family, debts, past misdeeds or other things that could give someone a mental or emotional advantage over you. As with the records, filling this information out is optional.

Loadout

The Loadout tab allows you to select special equipment to enter the game with. These are items that may not be ordinarily available in-game. You have an unlimited number of points but try not to bring an entire warehouse onboard. Some items are restricted to certain branches or jobs. Select "Hide Unavailable" to see what is allowed for your current job.

If you are from a uniformed organization (the Expeditionary Corps or the Fleet), please check out the Uniform Guide. If you forgot to take something, there is a Uniform Vendor in both Cryogenic Storages.

Option Explanation
