CHARACTER CUSTOMIZATION

Change your portrait, biography, alignment, body model, colours, wings, tails, and more.

Sinfar offers a broad range of character customization options even after character creation. Most appearance, biography, portrait, gender, model, and alignment options can be changed in-game or through Sinfar’s websites.

Some choices remain locked after creation. If you need to change one of these, you must create a new character.

Cannot be changed after creation:

  • Level 1 class
  • Level 1 ability scores
  • Level 1 feats, skills, spells, and package choices

Alignment

Sinfar does not restrict classes by alignment in the usual way. You may choose classes regardless of alignment, including unusual combinations such as Paladin and Blackguard.

Some classes still mechanically push your character toward certain alignments. This means your roleplay alignment and your mechanical alignment may not always be identical. For example, a good-aligned character with Assassin or Blackguard levels may still be mechanically evil for effects such as Smite Evil.
