1. What is customization?
Customization allows you to adjust the look and voice of the character you want to create in the way you want. Adjustable are not only the large parts; the height, body size, hair, face type but also the details: eye color, eyebrow length, skin gloss, wrinkles etc.
Also, before customization, you can pre-dress your character in various clothes. Based on this, you can create the character of the desired image. After you have customized and finished creating your character, you need an Appearance Coupon if you want to change your character's appearance again.
