Character Creation
Attributes
I shall use the 6 major and 12 sub attributes mentioned in skills and powers. The rules for assigning scores to the sub attributes shall remain the same. 4d6 are rolled six times to generate your initial scores, with the lowest die being ignored each time. Player characters are assumed to be heroic, therefore they are required to have two scores at 15 or above, scores are re-rolled completely if they do not meet this minimum. However, players may choose to keep a set of scores that does not meet this minimum.
Races
Essentially the only PC race on Aeden is Abiel (humankind). However, for the purposes of the game there are several distinctions between each main racial group. All racial groups have a minimum of 3 and a maximum of 18 in each stat, their modifiers are:

Skills
TEXT
Hit Points
Are as normal for the PC´s class, except that first level characters always get maximum hit points for that level. When a character is taken below 0 HP they go unconscious, death follows at -CON hit points. Once taken below 0 by real damage the character will proceed to bleed at -1 HP per round. A cure spell may not take the character back to 0 HP, but it will usually halt their negative progression.
Multi Class/Dual Class
Any character of any race may be dual or multi class. The decision may be made at any time. However, the winning of XP will be modified by the DM so as to not unbalance the game.
Class/Race Combinations
The sky´s the limit, anything goes.
Background Generation
All PCs should have a set of questions answered for them. These are both to help the player round out their character idea, and to give the DM some substance to work with when planning adventures for the PCs. A minimum set of questions would include:
What is the PC´s occupation?
What is their personality like? (Describe both a close friend´s observation and a stranger´s)
What is their general appearance, at work, at play, when travelling and when adventuring?
What are their distinguishing features and habits?
What are their tastes and preferences?
Describe their residence, inlcude location, servants (if any) and other practical issues.
Where were they born?
When were they born?
Where, how and by whom were they raised?
Who are/were their role models?
Who are their living relations?
What adventures have they already completed?
Who are their friends and allies?
Who are their enemies?
What are their short term goals?
What are the desires of their heart?
When completing these questions don´t hesitate to ask the DM to help you.
