Disco Elysium: Character Creation Disco Elysium guide, walkthrough

Last update: 24 March 2021

On this page of the Disco Elysium guide, you will find a description of the process of creating a new character using the game's character creator.

The character creator in Disco Elysium is not as extensive as, e.g. in Baldur's Gate 3, and does not allow players to modify the appearance of the main character. When creating a new character, you can distribute Attributes and Skill Points, as well as choose a Signature Skill. If you wish, you can choose to select one of the character archetypes that have been pre-made and are in the game by default.

Archetypes - predefined characters

  2. Sensivite: Highly developed Psyche and Physique help Harry become a person with a gripping personality. Unfortunately, Sensivite Harrier will be emotionally unstable;
  3. Physical: Highly developed Physique and Motorics make Harrier strong and fit, but not very intelligent.
