CustomizationEdit

After one chooses the gender and race of their character, they will be able to customize them. The player is presented with a number of options for the body, head, and face of the Fugitive. There are a number of preset facial features, such as hairstyles and eye shapes that the player can choose from, as well as face markings. Finishing the customization completes the character creation.

For a fee of 50 , Theodor Gorlash will allow the player to alter their character again, at any time after their initial creation. By speaking to him, the player can change not only the Fugitive's appearance, but also their gender and race.
