How customizable is the PC? I know you can be slim or obese as well as applying whatever equipment and other things including hair and tattoos, but what else are you able to customize than what I had said?

Well, that's practically it. What you've mentioned is all that you can do to your main character.

Okay thanks!

Next Question(s)...

How long does it take to reach the maximum age? Plus I have heard that the Mask of Jack stops the aging, but is it able to be taken off?

That, I'm not really sure as I've lost count of the number of days the last time I played Fable: The Lost Chapters. I figure it's somewhere near the end of the game, if I recall correctly.

No. Once you wear the mask, you cannot take it off.

Your age is directly affected by how many skills and the level of skills you have. You won't age as much if you max out only four skills instead of every single one. There are one or two events that cause you to age one year as well as a few things you can do to reduce your age.

Well what skills would be recommended if your going to fight like a warrior would? (IMHO...will is for the sissies and using a bow is for people who are afraid to get hurt)

Just focus on the strength section (max out physique, health and toughness) and the speed skill at the Skill section.

From the will skills I suggest you get Multiple Strike and Berserk.

Don't forget Ghost Sword, Heal and Enflame. Both Ghost Sword and Enflame are pretty good in crowd control. I'm more of a melee-oriented player and I find these spells pretty useful.

Very well thank you for the tips and pointers, but now I just wonder if Jack's mask looks cool enough to wear. One thing I seem to be confused and even annoyed at is the fact it's pointless to have tattoos when they're going to be covered up by armor. How hard would it be to battle through Fable without a chestplate?

Even though you said you didnt like will... Physical Sheild is great for warriors.. Because with out it, You wont get much of a combat multiplyer. And also I think the mask is ugly. Lol But if you use physical shield you dont need to wear any armor what so ever. And not every tattoo is on the chest.. ... Arms.. Face.. .. Legs.. thats about it. But i can see your point.

Tattoos are also for alignment and attractiveness bonus, depending if your good or evil, some benefit you more to your choice of play.
