Character Creation
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.

There are two data centers for FFXIV. One is located in Japan, which houses the servers for Japanese players. The second is located in Canada and houses servers for both North American and European players.
Legacy worlds are worlds that contain players that played during 1.0. As such, players will have more gil, which could potentially affect the economy for a new player. New players are allowed to join Legacy worlds. However, Legacy players are not able to join normal worlds.
