Character

A character is an avatar that represents a persona within Corepunk. These can either be controlled by the player or the game itself (referred to as a Non-Player Character, or an NPC). Usually, the term refers to the persona controlled by the player. Player-controlled characters are customized within the Character Creation process.

Creation

Main Article: Character Creation

Upon adding a new character slot, the process of creating a character begins. This determines their characteristics, such as Hero, Mastery, appearance, and name.
A player's Hero cannot be changed upon creation, but their mastery can change upon reaching Max Level. A character's appearance and name can change.

Progression

See: Experience

As player characters advance through Corepunk, they gain Experience until reaching a level cap of 40.

Upon reaching the level cap, one can still keep earning experience for weapon specialisation trees and talent trees. However, once a tree is completed, the next tree will take longer to complete due to gaining experience cumulatively.

Non-Player Characters

Non-Player Characters are characters controlled by the game. The player can usually speak with, sell items to, buy items from, and accept Quests from ally non-player characters.
