Character Creation

Steps to build a COMP user or other denizen of the Virtual Veil.

Step 1 — Concept & Background

Choose your character's origin: Corporate, Underground, AI-syndicate, or Fringe.

Step 2 — Attributes

Main attributes: Strength, Reflex, Will, Intellect, Empathy. Roll or assign points.

Step 3 — Skills & Talents
