BioWare announced the release of the Dragon Age: Origins Character Creator and BioWare Social Network in the US and Europe. The free to download Character Creator gives players to create and customize a player character on the PC and then upload their character data and avatar online to the BioWare Social Network prior the launch of Dragon Age.

"The Dragon Age: Origins Character Creator and BioWare Social Network gives gamers a chance to kick start their adventure by creating a character and unique avatar online to reflect their in-game personality and share it with the Dragon Age: Origins community. The Dragon Age: Origins Character Creator also allows players to save their handmade character to use when the PC game launches in November. This stand alone application is now available free of charge exclusively on the PC at: www.dragonage.com," says BioWare.
