Character Creator contrib, by InspectorCaracal
# Features
The primary feature of this contrib is defining the name and attributes
of a new character through an EvMenu. It provides an alternate `charcreate`
command as well as a modified `at_look` method for your Account class.
# Usage
In order to use the contrib, you will need to create your own chargen
EvMenu. The included `example_menu.py` gives a number of useful techniques
and examples, including how to allow players to choose and confirm
character names from within the menu.
