The Ruler Designer allows you to customize your character's appearance by giving you full control over the smallest details - with hundreds of possibilities! Once you're done, use the Barbershop to create animated compositions of your Ruler's family and court, changing clothes and accessories on the fly to make them look as regal as you want.
The first step for every ruler is to establish their territory. In the Ruler Designer you can pick your Dynasty name and find the perfect spot on the map for your realm. Don't forget to customize your coat of arms and to establish your House motto! What will you be known for?
Use your Customization Points to further personalize your Ruler. Decide their age, pick some traits, or have fun min-maxing your skills. You are in control and can pick and choose the best qualities to pass on to your heirs.
