I'd like to know if there is any way to customize my preferences so that everytime I create a new character, the options I chose would always be chosen, as a standard for me.
E.g., I like my options standard like this:
Character Preferences
Homebrew Content
Allow custom content to be used for this character
OFF
Critical Role Content
Allow Critical Role content to be used for this character
OFF
Playtest Content
Allow Playtest content to be used for this character
OFF
Magic: The Gathering Content
Allow Magic: The Gathering content to be used for this character
ON
Eberron Content
Allow Eberron content to be used for this character
ON
Advancement Type
Story-based character progression / XP-based character progression
XP
Encumbrance Type
Use the standard encumbrance rules / Disable the encumbrance display / Use the more detailed rules for encumbrance
USE ENCUMBRANCE
Ignore Coin Weight
Coins do not count against your total weight carried (50 coins weigh 1 lb.)
OFF
Hit Point Type
When leveling up, increase hit points by the fixed value for your chosen class or manually enter a rolled value.
FIXED
Ability Score/Modifier Display
Reverse the arrangement of ability modifiers and scores
SCORES TOP
Character Privacy
Toggle the viewing of your character to 'Private' (only you can access your character), or 'Public' (anyone with the link can view your character)
I would love to see this as well. One possible workaround: create a character named empty character, and adjust all the settings on the Home page as desired; don’t “fill out” any of the rest of the tabs. When creating a new character, make a copy of this one and start going. I haven’t tried it. So I can’t promise it will work. And it’s probably not a great option for folks who don’t have a subscription and thus are limited to 6 characters.

Did you ever figure out how to do this?
