Go to the Main Tab Go to the DM Tools Tab Click here to quit PCGen. You will be warned to save any modified characters. Clicking here will create a new character. You must have loaded a campaign that includes the Player's Handbook before this becomes active. This allows you to load a previously saved PCGen character. Cicking on this tab will take you to the character "New1" This will close the current character. This will close all currently open characters. This will save the current character. This will save all the characters. Go to the Stats tab Go to the Classes tab Go to the Abilities tab Go to the Skills tab Go to the Feats tab Go to the Domains tab Go to the Spells tab Go to the Profile tab Go to the Traits tab Go to the Misc tab Go to the Equipment tab Go to the Companions tab Go to the Preview tab You enter or edit the name of the current character in this field. At the bottom of the window is the Alignment list box. If you're in Star Wars Mode (see the Options tab above) this will be hidden from view. In the lower left-hand corner is the Pool which indicates how many points you have to spend. The Roll button will randomly generate the stats via the 4d6-drop-the-lowest method, or set them all to 8 if you're in Purchase Mode. By clicking on a plus button you may increase the stat in that row by one, and by clicking on the minus button you may decrease the stat. This is the stat adjustment due to the currently selected race. This is your base rolled stats. This column shows the total for each stat (after racial adjustments). As with all tables in PCGen you can sort it by clicking on the column header and reverse the sorting by holding down the shift-key while clicking on the column header. This column displays the racial adjustments to each stat. This column displays any alignment requirements for each race. This column displays the size category of each race.

On the left is a table listing the stats, the unadjusted scores, any racial modifiers, and the resulting total. There is a column of plus and minus buttons – by clicking on a plus button you may increase the stat in that row by one, and by clicking on the minus button you may decrease the stat. If you're in Purchase Mode (see the Options tab above) you cannot decrease stats below 8. If you're not in Purchase Mode then you must decrease stats to put points in your pool before using those points to raise other stats. In the lower left-hand corner is the Pool which indicates how many points you have to spend. If you're in Purchase Mode it will indicate the cost of the character in parentheses. The Roll button will randomly generate the stats via the 4d6-drop-the-lowest method, or set them all to 8 if you're in Purchase Mode.

On the right is a table of Races and information regarding each of them. As with all tables in PCGen you can sort it by clicking on the column header and reverse the sorting by holding down the shift-key while clicking on the column header. As you click on a race your character's race will be set to that selection, and the racial stat modifiers will be reflected in the stats table on the left. Any initial benefits from a race (like a Human's initial feat) will only be granted if the character has that class when advancing to first level. If you later change races you will not gain that feat retroactively.

At the bottom of the window is the Alignment list box. If you're in Star Wars Mode (see the Options tab above) this will be hidden from view.
