No, the age is fixed at 16. And as for looks, there is no place yet since there is no practical use in story but maybe I will add just for fun sake.

It’s totally cool if you don’t add anything for choosing what our character looks like but if you do that be super upfront about it cause I could see it pissing some people off.

Title: The Heir’s Quest: Reclamation
Author: Ashwini Mohapatra
Genre: Low-Fantasy, War, Royalty
BLURB
You are the second child and heir apparent to the Lion Throne of Astoria, a kingdom plunged into chaos. Betrayed by your own nobles, your father was poisoned, and your mother sacrificed herself defending the capital. Now, your treacherous cousin has usurped the throne and seeks to eliminate you.
Living a life of obscurity, you must decide your fate: escape into exile, reclaim your birthright and maybe find love along the way in the shadows. The choice is yours, but the stakes have never been higher. Will you rise from the ashes and claim your destiny, or succumb to the darkness that surrounds you?
Current status: Prologue completed, Ch. 1 in progress. You should see the “play again” and other buttons when done, and you should have save slots. Please keep replying to the thread if you find errors or have any feedback or constructive criticism.
Currently it’s about 10% done, and I plan on updating every 1 month but most probably faster than 1 month. There is no goal word count as I don’t believeing in limiting my story to word counts because a story could be 10 million words and might still not entertain someone while some could be less than 100k and still entertain user. I currently have written 11,245 words. I have also added some stats and reference details which are currently completely available but I will make it available selectively at different stages of story based on requirement.

Hello @Valixon,
Yes I tried to add save slot but the plugin is giving error. Since that plugin is a feature only supported by Dashingdon, not by Choicescript so I am not able to debug the issue. I am trying to figure it out. I am also adding a save system within the story that will allow user to store save progress at end of chapter and restart the chapter but it is not yet added in code

I might be mistaken but the plugin error comes from not turning it back on after testing or something like that.
To another issue ive encountered so far i chose dagger but its refering too sword in the following posts.

Hi @Ashwini_Mohapatra, I’ve merged the new thread with this one as we usually keep to one thread per WIP in order to keep the forum tidy. If you’re having problems editing your post, send me or the other moderators a message and we’ll look at it for you 
Hello @HarrisPS ,
Thanks I am new here so I didn’t knew about it. Will keep it in mind.

Interesting concept so far, these a bit of problem with the save files and the button said “You tightly grip your sword” regardless of the previous weapon of choice.
Maybe I could suggest meeting the characters of the royal family in the prologue rather than just having Alexander explain everything to us. Just maybe one exchange with the cousin and maybe our supposed body double so we could have a more weighing choices. Great work so far, looking forward to the next update

Hello @Danii ,
Thanks for the feedback. Regarding the grip your sword text, I have rectified it already. It should be reflecting the update now according to weapon of choice
