The Character Creator

Your looks and costume are independent of your archetype, powers, and level: you never have to give up your beautiful choices for more power.

Archetype and Powers

Select one of five archetypes, two primary and two secondary powers. Selecting different powers support different play styles, even for the same archetype.

Your Unique Appearance

Select your body type from male, female, and big guy. Starting from one of 114 presets, you can customize facial and body features through up to 92 adjustable parameters.

Create your Costume

Create your costume from hundreds of pieces that can be mixed and matched for countless combinations. Customize each piece with up to 3 colors slots.

Randomizers

Quickly get to something you like for body, faces, and costumes with the randomizers . Use randomizers to select your look, for individual elements, or as a starting point.

At any time, you can change the looks, costumes, background story, and powers within the power sets on an existing character.
