Character creation in GTA Online is very detailed, and has three steps to be followed. The first part to creating a character is determining his/her heritage. The second step involves choosing a lifestyle, and the final one is about selecting an appearance of your choice.

Step 1: Determining the heritage

For determining the heritage of your character in GTA Online, you need to select your grandparents in the beginning. After that, you can choose various tendencies from your maternal and/or paternal side.

If you love to play another Rockstar Games creation, Red Dead Redemption, you can select John Marston as your Special Dad. For those of you who do not know, John Marston is the main character of Red Dead Redemption.


Step 2: Choosing the lifestyle

You can choose the lifestyle you want your character to have by assigning hours that he/she needs to invest when doing a particular work. You have to distribute 24 hours over seven lifestyles, and each lifestyle has different traits. Each lifestyle in GTA Online also increases and decreases certain aspects that are mentioned below:

1. Asleep

This lifestyle increases your stamina, strength, stealth and lung capacity. You can spend a maximum of 12 hours in this lifestyle.

2. With friends & family

This lifestyle increases stamina and strength, and reduces shooting ability. You can spend a maximum of four hours in this lifestyle.

3. Playing sports & working out

This lifestyle increases stamina, lung capacity and strength, but reduces shooting and driving abilities. You can spend a maximum of eight hours in this lifestyle.
