[QUOTE="VenerableBede, post: 8796845, member: 7032917"] Is there any sort of timeline/update one when a "fully functional" character builder will be available? Or even just an update on how work and progress is going beyond there being a WIP for 1st-level characters? Quote from below: "The CB is not something we've started work on yet.
