-<h1>CHAPTER HEROES OF THE RESISTANCE</h1>
+<h1>CHARACTER CREATION</h1>
 
-<p>You are the last line of defense against a terrible power, a darkness that threatens to envelop the known world — such as a power-hungry kingdom or an oppressive empire. The fate of many lies within your hands.</p>
-<ul>
-    <li>Why is this daunting task up to you? Have you fought against this enemy before?</li>
-    <li>Which factions helped you, and which ones betrayed or opposed you?</li>
-    <li>Who are the most infamous among the enemy leaders and followers?</li>
-</ul>
+<p>Grab some blank character sheets because it is time to create Player Characters!</p>
 
-<h2>REVOLUTIONARIES</h2>
-<p>You form a small force that fights tooth and nail against a dominant power: it might be a tyrannical government, a military occupation, or even a ruthless industrial company. Society and security forces probably consider you criminals or terrorists.</p>
-<ul>
-    <li>What is the price your character paid for their insubordination?</li>
-    <li>Which factions promised you their help? Which factions might oppose you?</li>
-    <li>What are your enemies’ crimes, and why is no one else opposing them?</li>
-</ul>
+<p>While this might look like something you can do on your own, it is actually better for all participants (Game Master included) to go through this step together: while each hero belongs to the person controlling them, these characters are destined to be adventuring together, which means they should have some “chemistry” from the very beginning!</p>
 
-<h2>SEEKERS</h2>
-<p>You are desperately searching for someone or something — a powerful witch, an ancient relic, a legendary location, or even a long-lost technological marvel. What you seek is the world’s last hope, or at least, you think it is.</p>
-<ul>
-    <li>What is it you are trying to prevent or remedy? What are you looking for?</li>
-    <li>What do you know of your mission? Who or what gave you this information?</li>
-    <li>Who doesn't want you to find what you seek?</li>
-    <li>What prompted each of you to join this mission?</li>
-</ul>
+<p>Character Creation is presented as a series of steps, similarly to World Creation; you are not, however, bound to take these steps in this exact order. You can go back and modify your choices anytime during the process.</p>

+<p>Characters are normally created at level 5; see page 229 for higher-level PCs.</p>
+
+<h2>Character Creation Steps</h2>
+<ol>
+    <li><strong>Identity:</strong> Choose or create your character's Identity: a short sentence that briefly summarizes how they see themselves at the moment.</li>
+    <li><strong>Theme:</strong> Choose or create your character's Theme: a strong ideal, emotion or feeling that dominates your character's actions.</li>
+    <li><strong>Origin:</strong> Choose or create your character's Origin: the place they hail from. You may select a location on your world sheet or add a new one.</li>
+    <li><strong>Classes and Levels:</strong> Choose two or three Classes and distribute your initial five levels among them. Take note of the free benefits and Skills gained.</li>
+    <li><strong>Attributes:</strong> Determine the base die size of your character's four Attribute scores: <em>Dexterity, Insight, Might,</em> and <em>Willpower</em>.</li>
+    <li><strong>Calculations:</strong> Calculate your starting Hit Points, Mind Points, Inventory Points, Defense, Magic Defense, and Initiative modifier.</li>
+    <li><strong>Equipment/Savings:</strong> Use a starting budget of 500 zenit to purchase equipment, then add any leftovers to a roll of 2d6 &times; 10 to determine initial savings.</li>
+</ol>
+
+<p>Describe your character and choose their name and pronouns!</p>
