Final Fantasy XIV features a comprehensive character creation system which allows players to customize their avatars.

Once a race and clan have been selected, players can proceed to choose from a wide variety of face types and hair styles. From there, detailed adjustments can be made to hair, skin, and eye color, as well as mouth, nose and eye shape. There are even smaller details available, like putting highlights or streaks in your hair and adding scars and tattoos. Not only can players choose how they look but they will also get to choose how they sound with a variety of voice types. The possibilities are almost endless.

Character Creation Steps

1. The character creation process begins with selecting from one of the five races and its gender, then one of the two clans within the race.

2. Next, you can customize your appearance (or randomize it if you're not suere about what you want).

3. Once your character is complete, you begin the game and set up your discipline, nameday (birthday) and Guardian Deity.

4. Once all those steps are complete, you choose your name, which must consist of both a first and last name. You are allowed a maximum of 15 letters for each, but a maximum of 20 letters total. Dashes and apostrophes are also allowed.

5. Once you finalize your character, the introductory scene will play and the adventure begins!
