Introduction | Character creation Destiny Guide

Choosing a race does not affect abilities

After starting the game, you'll have to create a new character. Firstly, you have to select your class. It's the most important decision as it affects your abilities and equipment. All classes have been described in a separate chapter of this guide.

When you choose your class, you'll see a screen where you can customize your appearance. Destiny offers you three races - Human, Awoken (humanoids with blue skin) and Exo (intelligent machines). You also have to select your gender.

Note - Choosing race and gender does not affect your character's skills and challenges in the game.

Destiny offers a wide range of options in terms of customizing a character.

The following features are also purely visual. You can modify your character's face (Face, Hair, Head Feature) and add Marks.

Note - The game lets you have several characters, you can choose them from the main menu. I recommend creating one character of each class.
