Atm we only have one option in sandbox, and that is to start as a fresh character and do all the grinding. Which is fine, but how about adding 3 options before creating your character, such as, start as an adventure, mercenary and vassal.
Adventure - Already in game, basically starting out fresh - Difficulty - Hard
Mercenary - Start as a mercenary for any factions, players would have decent skills, money, renown, decent armour, weapons, troops and party size etc. - Difficulty - Medium
Vassel - Start as a vassal for any factions, players would have better skills, more money, renown, better armour, weapons, troops, party size, and a castle or 2 etc. - Difficulty - Easy
In this way, players can either choose any of these options, if players feel like they don't want to grind and would already start with decent gear, skills, party size etc.
