skyrim special edition character customization

Only one can be active at once (unless one uses the Aetherial Crown). They can be activated at any time once the player discovers them, and confer various bonuses, such as increasing experience gained for certain skill types, or buffing stats. Instead, Skyrim has added Standing Stones, which are monoliths found throughout Skyrim that functionally replace both birthsigns and Doomstones. Players can now edit facial features in much greater detail, and add decorations like war paint, facial hair, battle scars, wrinkles, and dirt coverage. The process is thus centered almost entirely on the aesthetic aspect of character creation, which has been greatly improved over past games. The only aspects which the player will choose are race, gender, appearance, and name. With Skyrim, the class system has been removed, and character creation determines very little about the capabilities of a character. In past The Elder Scrolls games, character creation was where the player decided their class, which would shape their character's strengths and weaknesses for the whole of the gaming experience ahead.

For this feature in other games, see Character Creation.
