Character Creation (Semi Automated)

In this method you will edit some things manually and add items to automate some steps.

Ask the GM to turn Character Creation mode on.

Ask the GM to create a new actor in Foundry and choose 'Character' as the type and assign ownership to you

Choose your Archetype, Culture, Class, Homeland and Religion, dragging the relevant items to your character sheet.

Go to the Stats Tab and either select your stats values or roll them.

Whilst some equipment and bonuses are added you may need to review these and make any manual adjustments as you go
