The '''Character Manager''' is the series of web pages available to first create, and then manage a character in the Gemstone IV world.

The Character Manager is first accessed when a player decides to create a new character. A web site then opens that has the following nine steps:

{| width="75%"
|  1) Choose a gender (male or female)
|-
|  2) Choose a [[profession]] from among 10 options
|-
|  3) Choose a [[race]] from among 13 options
|-
|  4) Choose a [[culture]] from among various options depending on race selection
|-
|  5) Customize [[Character feature|appearance]] for eyes, hair, skin, nose, features and height each with multiple selections (race dependent)
|-
|  6) Assign [[statistic|attributes]] by distributing 440 points between 10 attributes
|-
|  7) Train in [[skills]]
|-
|  8) Choose a name with sample names pregenerated
|-
|  9) Play the game
|}

Thereafter, the Character Manager is selected by typing [[GOALS (verb)|GOALS]] at the game's command prompt. When this is done, a separate web site opens allowing the player to add to various skills based on the [[Training points|training points]] available at that time.

Historical Note: Prior to moving to a completely web based interface, the Character Manager was accessed within the game using the [[CHECK IN (verb)|Check In]] verb. The character had to visit one of the game's inns, and use this command at the front desk. This remains the best way to re-roll the character to choose a new profession, and is the only way to update the [[FAME]] status of the character in the appropriate lists. It is also currently the only way to reallocate [[statistics|attributes]]. Each character may reallocate their attributes without cost five (5) times before reaching level twenty (20).
