Ain't That a Kick in the Head

Your life has been saved by Doc Mitchell. You'll need to construct your look and distribute your skills.

Pick your SPECIAL carefully, as adjusting it later will require a lot of caps later. You should concentrate on Endurance and Intelligence, along with what ever main attribute you like (Agility for Guns or lots of VATS use, Strength for melee, etc.).

You'll be given a test to see what Tag skills work best for you. These tagged skills will boost a skill by a free 15 right from the start. However, if you don't like the results you can always pick your own Tags. Finally, pick whatever first level perks work well for your character.
