New Game Settings

When you start a new game, there are four categories of options you have to choose:


 * Main Character: select one of the three main characters, their elemental affinity, and dating interests
 * Difficulty: several global difficulty options, such as starting resources, king quests, harder enemies, permadeath, etc.
 * Traits/Profession: here you pick one profession, and buy genes and traits for the main character
 * Starter 1 and starter 2: here you pick the race, genes and traits of the two units you start with

If you are new and don't know what to pick:


 * MainCharacter: whatever you like.
 * Difficulty: you can leave difficulty as is. Some people recommend lowering gold to disable breeding king quests.
 * Traits/profession: depends on character picked, and whether you want a strong start or potential. See the Main Characters pages for tips on traits and profession for each.
 * Starters: the game recommends a pair of melee+ranged, with melee being a bit tanky, and caster having support potential.
 * Or you can follow a Guide
