Instead of building characters manually you may select one the quick build options below. These builds provide an array of values for attributes and skills that you enter into your character sheet as you see fit. They also have allotments of xp for additional languages and talents.
If you elect to use the quick build option note that you still pick your background and abilities, and create or select any vehicles you have acquired from character creation or advancement.
