Avatars

Your Character
When you first start the game God Eater, you are given the opportunity to create your own character anyway you want. You can start out with various different clothing, hairstyles and more. Be aware though that none of this will affect your overall performance during gameplay, and the whole character creation is completely cosmetic.

Customization
You can choose several options when making your character. Once your done making your character, don't be afraid to go back and double check everything. If there is a mistake you made after you confirmed your character, or you want to try something else, see Rebirthing lower down on the page.
 * Name-Your name, which will show up on your Avatar Card and in NPC conversations. This cannot be changed in game so pick your name wisely.
 * Code Name-The name that will show up during missions, this can be the same as your name if you wish. Also permanent.
 * Gender-Choose between male and female, neither has any advantage over the other ad only changes the clothing and hairstyles you can wear.
 * Hair-This allows you to change your hairstyle and can be changed anytime in game.
 * Hair Color-The colour of your hair, which can be changed as well in game anytime.
 * Face-The structure of your face, which will be permanent throughout the game.
 * Skintone-The colour of your skin, also permanent.
 * Voice-What your character will say and the tone he will say it in (only during missions though, as your character doesn't talk at all in the cutscenes.) Choose carefully since there are many options in this category, and is a permanent choice.
 * Clothing-The clothing for your character, this really isn't much of a big deal as all the options you can choose are obtainable later on, so don't fuss over this category too much.
