  • You should see the character selection/creation screen. If you don't see the below image, there was probably something wrong. Read the error message and try to correct what is wrong. See Getting Help if you need more help.

Creating a Character

  • If your class has costumes, you can pick one of those as well. Costumes are simple alternate appearances for your character.

  • Finally, pick your prophecies. Prophecies are special modifications to your character, such as allowing PvP, having permadeath, or taking extra damage. For beginners it is best to start with just Titangrip which gives double stats from items.

  • Once you are done selecting all these things, press 'Create'.
