Character Creator

The Character Creator is the UI window to setup a new character in Starbound. This is where the player selects a race, gender, and customizes the elements of their base appearance, Then give them a name. There are seven different playable races currently; The Apex, Avian, Floran, Glitch, Human, Hylotl, and Novakid. Each have their own unique ship and armors, as well as racial skills that you can unlock as you progress through the game. You will also be able to choose between the three different game modes; Casual, Normal, and Hardcore, Choose wisely they determine what happens if that character dies in-game, you may lose pixels, ore, or even that character if you are in hardcore. Once a game mode is selected for that character it cannot be changed.
