I have can't seem to figure out how to start a multi player game so that I can create all my own characters. I thought that I have read somewhere that this could be done. Is this possible to do or was I on drugs that day.

You should make an effort to come up with a better topic heading that "A question"! :(

On to the question. This is from memory, but it should suffice:

Multiplayer... Connect... Serial... Create Game...
Pick a slot and generate character. "Lock" it in after you've created the character.

Creativity was never my strong point but thanks for the answer I will have to try that when I get home.

I have some more questions to add on to the last one. If I want to have a familiar in a multiplayer game does the first guy I make have to be a mage or will it work if any of my characters are a mage and for that matter if I have more than one mage can I have more than one familiar. (not that I would want that but just wondering if it was possible)
