Hello!

A few things to note, your stats will appear in the top left corner and you can see the amounts change with each choice that has a stat effect.







Your career and money will appear in the middle of the left side of the screen, these are not noted in the book like the stat changes are.







Lastly, you can skip all this and use the quick set to distribute your stat points to your liking.
With quick set, you start with 2 points in all stats and have 3 remaining to distribute for a total of 21 stat points.The Military Career with 10 Money is the default but you can change this based on which color group has more points.
Red = Military and 10 money
Green = Academic and 4 money
Blue = Diplomat and 25 money.

*The preset stat points in quick set are not hard locked and you can change them if you want*
*It is possible to get a total of 22 24 points during character creation if you don't use quick set.*

Choose male or female.
Currently, leaving either name blank will result in the default name of Mandel.

*You can see they have 22 points to distribute as opposed to the 21 that quick set gives you.*
