New players are encouraged to attend games, try different classes, meet other players, and learn the world before committing to a character. Once you have found a race and class combination that suits your playstyle, you can create a character and begin your journey in the [[Free City of Tanyth]].

Players may have up to three active characters at any one time.
 
Each character is treated as an entirely separate individual within the world.
 
Characters do not share:
 
* Experience
* Reputation
* Coin
* Items
* Treasures
* Story Progression
 
<div class="wizlords-collapsible-section-subheading">Creating Additional Characters</div>
When creating a second or third character, that character begins as a brand new resident of Tanyth.
 
New characters start with:
 
* 0 Experience
* 0 Reputation
* 0 Coin
* No Items or Treasures
 
Your existing characters retain all of their own progression separately.

<div class="wizlords-collapsible-section-subheading">Choosing a Character to Play</div>
 
Before each game session, players must nominate which of their characters they will be playing.
 
Only one character may be played during a game session.
 
For full-day events, weekend events, campaigns, and other long-form adventures, players must select a single character for the entire duration of the event.
 
<div class="wizlords-collapsible-section-divider"></div>
 
<div class="wizlords-collapsible-section-subheading">Character Retirement and Consolidation</div>
 
Players may retire or delete characters that they no longer wish to play.
 
Once every six months, players may request a character consolidation.
 
During consolidation, one character is selected to receive the Experience earned by another retired character.
 
<div class="wizlords-collapsible-section-subsubheading">What Transfers?</div>
The following transfers to the chosen character:
 
* Experience
 
<div class="wizlords-collapsible-section-subsubheading">What Is Lost?</div>
The following are not transferred during consolidation:
 
* Reputation
* Coin
* Items
* Treasures
* Story Rewards
 
These are lost when the character is retired.
 
This system allows players to experiment with different character concepts while ensuring progression remains meaningful and manageable.
