{{Cryptogull|title=Auspicious Beginnings (Mutant)|code= | {{Cryptogull|title=Auspicious Beginnings (Mutant)|code=BEMMMLJMBIBOCBDX|comment=The usual standard recommended beginner's build, this build gives you plenty of ways to escape enemies and a powerful mutation to deal with combat.

{{Cryptogull|title=Auspicious Beginnings (True Kin)|code= | {{Cryptogull|title=Auspicious Beginnings (True Kin)|code=AGOMOKKK04|comment=Extremely survivable, this is the non-mutant version of the easy mode start. The Praetorian caste selection makes this character start with chain mail, a steel long sword, and most importantly, a desert rifle. The optical bioscanner implant gives first time players insight into the exact hitpoints, armor, and dodge value of opponents at the bottom of the 'look' command's popup.}} | ||

Your clones make excellent use of Adrenal Control to maximize your action economy. Use the pet either/or if you are a patron for max roleplay. By: Wrbrgrgl}} | |||
