            Pretty sure Damion was talking about the costume designer, not the power
            selection.
            
            There's probably an interesting psychological discussion surrounding why
            I immediately assumed "costume" and you assumed "powers" when Damion
            said "character creation."
            
            I've always wanted to define how my avatars look much more freely,
            without being efficiently "encouraged" into wearing certain items
            because of the stats, etc. Another reason I enjoy Morrowind/Oblivion is
            the ability to add the effects you want onto clothing you choose (within
            some limits).
