# Characters

Game link: <https://app.ethxy.com>

## Character introduction

Characters are your individual avatars that go into battle for you.  Currently, players can make up to 5 characters for their Telegram account.  When players first sign up for EthXY, they will be asked to create their first character.

## Name selection

The first step to create a character is picking a name.  Character names are unique in EthXY.  Once a name has been selected, it's not possible to change it so please choose carefully!   Names must follow the following guidelines:

* Alphanumeric (A-Z, 0-9), case-insensitive
* Limited to 16 characters
* Nothing vulgar or containing profanity

Names are priced starting from 0.01 ETH.  Names are priced with the following general guidelines:

* 4+ character names are priced at 0.01 ETH.
* 3 character names like "Abc" or"Xyz" are priced at 0.1 ETH.
* Common names like "John" or "Dan" are priced at 0.5 ETH.
* 2 character names like "Xy" or "Ab" are priced at 1 ETH.
* 1 character names like "A" or "0" are priced at 10 ETH.

As characters will be tradable in the future, keep in mind the name may play a factor in determining the value of your character.

## Character creation

After picking a name, players will be asked to customize their character.  There are five elements that can be customized:

1. Hair type (Long or short)
2. Hair color - Pick from available colors or choose your own [hex color](https://htmlcolorcodes.com/color-picker/)! &#x20;
3. Eye color - Pick from available colors or choose your own [hex color](https://htmlcolorcodes.com/color-picker/)! &#x20;
4. Skin color - Pick from available colors or choose your own [hex color](https://htmlcolorcodes.com/color-picker/)! &#x20;
5. Character class (Farmer, Priest, Adventurer, Trader, Noble)

## Character classes

At the moment, the different character classes only provide cosmetic differences in starting apparel.  This is subject to change in the future with expanded gameplay.

## 👑 Noble class

The Noble character class is reserved for prior participants of the EthXY plots game.  The requirements are:

1. Be a current [Mainnet plot owner](https://main.ethxy.com) or
2. Be a [Base plot owner](https://base.ethxy.com) prior to November 1st, 2023.

If you qualify with one of these two criteria, you can verify your wallet using <https://ethxy.com/verify>.  After verifying with your Telegram username, you'll be able to make a Noble character.

## Tagline

After completing customizing the looks of your character, you'll be asked to provide a tagline for the character to say before battle.

You have the option to either use the "Randomize" feature for AI to come up with a tagline or you can write your own tagline. &#x20;

Guidelines for taglines:

* Due to rendering limitations, taglines can only take alphanumeric (a-z0-9) characters and punctuation.
* Taglines can fit a maximum of three lines or around 16 words.
* Please do not use any profanity or vulgarities.
