Avatar (Shadows of the Forsaken)

In Shadows of the Forsaken, players are provided with five slots in which they can create a character, known in-game as Avatars. Each Avatar has its own unique level, skills, inventory, and storage; however, all five share their Friends List, Hero Card, and Cyberstorage. Unlike most games, there is no gender option.

==Races==
There are seven unique races in Shadows of the Forsaken.
===Human===
Humans come with a number of variations which may be selected upon Avatar creation. The base design will take on an appearance akin to humans of the Mushroom Kingdom, such as Mario and Luigi. The Hylian variant takes on a much more realistic appearance like citizens of Hyrule, such as Link and Zelda. The Villager variant has a more simplistic appearance, similar to the main character in Animal Crossing; the variant can also be modified to resemble characters from EarthBound, such as Ness and Lucas.
===Mii===
Miis can be directly imported from the Mii Maker application, and take on a design quite similar to that of their appearance in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U. They have no unique customization; while the player is unable to change their physical appearance, they are still given multiple options for their clothing.
===Toad===
Toads, from the Super Mario series, are a race of fungus-like people who populate the Mushroom Kingdom. They are the subjects of Princess Peach, and have a large, spotted cap atop their head. Toads do not have ears nor hair, but they still have bangs and their cap can be customized in color and pattern.
===Ape===
Apes are inspired by the Donkey Kong series, but it incorporates all the different species of ape which each Kong represents. They can be as small as Diddy Kong or Dixie Kong, or set to be as large as Donkey Kong. While each species of ape has its own special features, this race combines them all into one for convenience purposes. Their style of fur and tail can be customized.
===Inkling===
Inklings are based on the creatures from the game Splatoon. They are similar to the base form of Humans, but have differently-shaped limbs as well as a smaller body and larger head. As their name implies, they are squids, and as such have a cap and two tentacles on either side of the head which can be customized.
===Animal===
Based on the Sonic the Hedgehog series of video games, this race allows players to create an Avatar which is a humanoid animal. They can be anything from a hedgehog to a fox, a cat to a dog, etc. Their eyes are large and their animal parts re-proportioned for a human-like body. Their spines, fur, etc. can be customized.
===Robot===
Robots are inspired by the R.O.B. which was sold with the Nintendo Entertainment System; as a mechanical race, they move much less fluidly and more choppily. Each of their parts can be customized in ways similar to normal body parts.
