Last update: 07 May 2018
Character creation in Harry Potter The Hogwarts Mystery is simple and nice. Of course the most important question in which house should you choose.
Basics
Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery begins with a character creation screen. You can choose a gender, skin color, and hairstyle. You'll also choose from a varied set of facial features. Unfortunately, you cannot change the character's body and its clothes (the latter becomes available later). Choice of hairstyles is rather small at the beginning - you can unlock more options by reaching new experience levels. Creating a character in Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery means choosing a right face for your wizard or a witch. Fortunately, you can change these elements during the game itself.
Gender and name
Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery enables you to create a single hero, a student of the titular school. His gender is chosen at the beginning of the character creation screen. You cannot change it later on.
You'll input the first and the last name of your hero during the first dialogue taking place during the game. The dialogue comes into place shortly after creating a hero and choosing his first wand. You can type in the name for your character or use a random name drawn from the pool.
Head
