# Configure a Character

## Creating character

> A character has a name, can have an icon and a list of behaviors. That's all.
>
> To **create** a character use the command `/character create <name> [icon]`
>
> **name** is the name of the character, it will be visible when he sends a message.
>
> **icon** is optional and allows you to directly define the character's avatar. Links must redirect to image files in `.png` `.jpg`
>
> To modify the icon you can use the command: `/character edit icon`
>
> To modify the name you can use the command: `/character edit name`
