Sure, Bioware might have delayed Dragon Age: Origins until November, but that isn’t stopping them from releasing a full featured character creator on October 13th:

The Dragon Age: Origins Character Creator will allow you to create numerous different characters before launch and experiment with the different classes, races, and create multiple faces for the 6 Origin stories and save them to your hard drive for safe keeping until the game is released.

The bad news for console gamers is that this is PC only right now.  The creator will have all kinds of social features for Bioware’s new Dragon Age social website, which is good if you want to show off your large chested female wizard to all of your friends.

It will be a 320mb download and will still have the same requirements as Dragon Age proper does.

Hopefully this will provide as much entertainment as when the Spore Creature creator was released – although I’m not sure I’ll be spending as much time with the Dragon Age creator making walking genitalia as I did with the Spore one, but oh well.
