It is where you will be filling out your character sheet. Make sure you select Pathfinder when you start your character sheet.
Step 2: Choose your Ability Scores

Step 3: Pick your race
You may select a race from any pathfinder book, with a few exceptions, or create your own race
Step 3a: Creating your own race
Follow this guide
paizo.com/pathfinderRPG/prd/advancedRaceGuide/raceBuilder.html
You are allotted 10RP points to build the race
Ensure you do not take advanced or monstrous traits or you may take xp penalty
Once completed you must post the new race in forum to be reviewed and accepted
Step 4: Pick Your Class
Again any class from a pathfinder source is accepted.
Ensure you also check out any archtypes before selecting your class to see if it may suit your character
Step 5: Choose skills and select feats
Your class will dictate how many skills you may choose, Class skills also gain a +3 on first rank. Human race gets an extra feat at level one.
Step 6: Purchase equipment
Your class will dictate what your average starting gold will be, use that to buy your starting equipment

Step 7: Finishing details
Fill in your Hit points, take maximum for each level, fill in your armor class, saving throws, initiative modifier, and attack values. Also choose your characters alignment, make sure to check to see if your characters class restricts certain alignments.
You can also choose two beneficial traits to add to your character, or three if you also choose a drawback
Step 8: PM your character sheet URL to High Magistrate Clout on the Forum (Though your Character is Approved at the time of your first move.)
Step 9: Choose a faction or decide to go nomadic
If you choose a faction declare your intent to join them in their recruitment thread and wait till you are added to their forum. Show up on their scheduled game time and your character sheet will be reviewed at that time. Once your characters location is established in game or in forum that is where you will be. Changes in location cost MP (movement points) and are restricted per week. Take your time choosing.
If you choose to be nomadic you can decide to either start at a faction city, near a factions party, or anywhere else in the world. You can either ask to play with them prior to the time they start, in which they may decline, or you can show up on open day (friday) and play. Please note friday is first come first serve.
At any time you have difficulties please log onto roll20 and enter game. There is almost always helpful players ready to assist you in creating your character and answering any questions. Thank you for choosing Realm of Calidor.
