Shepherd’s Character Selector
Choose who you come back as. When you die, pick Custom on the respawn
screen and build your survivor — gender, face, clothing and facial hair — with
a live, rotatable 3D preview before you drop back into the world. In a hurry?
Hit Randomize and roll a whole new look in one click.
- In-game character customizer on the Custom respawn option
- Gender & face — cycle through every survivor model
- Clothing — choose your top, bottom and shoes
- Facial hair — clean-shaven through full beard
- Randomize button — instantly roll a random gender, face, outfit and
beard, then keep tweaking or spawn as-is - Live 3D preview — see and spin your character before you spawn
- Pure vanilla look — built entirely from base-game DayZ UI, fonts and
styles. No custom textures, no branding, no clutter. - Server-authoritative — your choice is applied by the server through
DayZ’s own character systems.
Die → open the menu → Respawn → Custom → customize (or hit
Randomize) → Respawn.
Prefer to leave it to chance? Random works exactly like vanilla.
This mod hooks the vanilla Custom/Random respawn screen, so it must be enabled.
