Dieing at the beginning of the game can be a common occurrence, wouldn't it be convenient if, at the end of making a new character, it asked if you wanted to set it as a mold for later characters? If you were to die and make a new character, you could select something like 'CUSTOM A' at the bottom of the list and skip all the race/class/specialty first decisions, speeding up the process of playing again if you have a set course you want to follow.
