Arcanum: Of Steamworks & Magick Obscura hints

General Character Creation Tips
Well, character creation in this game is probably
the biggest, and most overwhelming, part of
playing if you haven't at least tried the game
before. There are a ridiculous amount of skills
and abilities to choose from, and you don't have
a whole lot of skill points. Don't even bother
trying to create a "Rounded" character, it just
doesn't work. Of course, there is always the
option to use some of the 'Pre-Defined
Characters' that come with the game. It comes
with characters from the four general character
archetypes. You can also use some of the built
in 'Auto-Levelling' scemes that will allow you to
not have to deal with distributing your points.
These pre-defined characters and schemes won't
get as good as you can make your character
yourself though.

You'll probably want to choose between one of the
four main "Styles" of character. Although there
are no actual classes in the game, the skills
define your character pretty well.

As far as your stats go, some are definitely more
important than others. Intelligence really only
needs to be above 10 for conversations to be
fairly complete (although higher Intelligence
makes for some interesting options). Beauty is
almost completely useless unless you feel like
pushing it up to 20...just make sure it's 8 or
above so people will have a positive reaction to
you, and put points in Charisma...it's much more
useful for getting skills as well. Willpower is
an important stat for anyone to have (yes, even
technologists) because it pumps up both your HP
and your Fatigue points. It's the most important
stat for mages, because it lets them learn more
powerful spells. All the other stats are mainly
useful to specific character types, and should be
allotted points as such. For example, a thief
should put plenty of points into Perception and
Dexterity; a fighter, plenty into Strength; etc.

For skills, obviously take the skills that are
most appropriate to the type of character you
want to be. Read the tips for each individual
type to see what's best for that type. Skills
that are greatly useful to all characters are
Persuasion, Pick Pocket, and Dodge.

As far as being male or female goes, there's
really very little effect on the game. Some
people will react slightly different to you, but
both can do all the games quests, if by slightly
different means. Women get a plus to Constitution
and a minus to Strength, which is good for Mages.
