Avernum: Escape from the Pit

Grabbed this (among others) in the Humble Bundle. Question: when do you allocate stats for your party at the start? If you don’t use the stock party, the only choices I see at the start for your own party are for character type and name – no allocation of stats for specific builds. Does this come later?

I only put like 30 seconds in so far, but there was a class called “custom” that said if you were an advanced player, you could select it to allocate your own skills. Leading me to believe the other classes are just pre-sets.

I missed that, thanks!
