<br />
I am currently creating my first character and even though I tend to have no real difficulties to picture how he looks physically (fur colour, height, weight etc), I have some troubles to make an accurate description of what my character could wear as clothing. I have absolutely no ideas of what kind of clothes Ramathians people can wear (even less in Trilok). If you could give me some hints I would be more than grateful. For information, my character is a Khell and will be...<br />

Question though: Is it possible to have a skill/trade that the level is beneath what their age would be?

They technically wouldn&#039;t be at their age level with that skill because they wouldn&#039;t be actively practicing it or continuing their studies with it. So like, a person might be at the age of a journeyman, but perhaps a skill was only learned up until a basic...<br />

So I was wondering... I have points, and I want a new character. But I don&#039;t want to give up any of my babies as I made them for a reason and I want to play them soon. But I need my token ass character to vent through(omg I crave the drama), and I haven&#039;t heard or seen a thing about character slots, where to get them, how much they&#039;d be or when we&#039;d even be able to use them. I&#039;d really really love this cause I&#039;m really inspired...<br />
