Troubleshoot

You have created your character but you can't validate it ? Let see what can be wrong :

• Invalid character on password

Try to remove any not alphanumeric character from your password

• Choose 3 tag skills

You have to tag three skills. Not 2, Not 4 : 3.

• You can't tag Persusasion, Outdoorsman, Sience or Engineering

These skills does not evolve as the other and you can tag them or spend point on them. For example you need to do a lot of science to naturally increase your science level. ( See skill page for more information )

• Incorrect SPECIAL data :

Special data is your Strenght/Perception/Endurance/Charisma/Intelligence/Agility/Luck. All your stat should be between 1 and 10 and if you are gifted between 2 and 10.

If you are still not able to create your character please ask us on the forum.
