Everyone is playing a level 1 character but you have some choices as to how you apply. You can either choose to create a character under d20 modern rules as a lessor pure to select the type of Animo you wish to play. Alternatively you can answer the questions below and take your chances of getting a High Pure or human character with Psychic Abilities.

Taking a chance to get a High Pure or Human...
You will need to answer the following questions which will determine your Animo. I will create a Private Thread for you and give your animo based on your responses. You will then be able to build a character using a
36 point buy system. You will also receive the same Abilities as a Lessor (with maybe a couple more). High Pures also have a higher status and caste.
