Hi there.

I am creating a template and want to change the default value for both the Height and weight containers. When creating a new character from the template I want the height to start at 700 cm instead of 200 and similarly with the weight. I can't seem to find it in the documentation and the BASE attribute doesn't work, though I don't know if the 2 containers have a BASE attribute.

thanks in advance,
Crayadder

If you're using HDv3 I would create a new character, change the attributes to the desired level and then Save As --> Template

If you're adding this to an already created custom template its useful to open the new character that GA mentioned with that custom template and custom campaign rules, if you're using them.

Saving that character as a template will add a <CHARACTER> container to the template that contains the character information. I used this to set not only the height and weight values for the demi-human races in my fantasy campaign, but also to include the required items, powers, and disads that would be in that race's package deal.
