Haven't created a new simulation yet? See <u>**[Creating a New Simulation](docId\:bXHZv6tfAZ2eSNguHdkSY)**</u> first. 

Once you’ve created a new simulation, the next step is to configure its **Identity**. A clear profile gives every simulation its context and character - it’s the foundation for everything else you build. Before defining behaviour, assessments, or the conversation, establish who the character is and the context they exist in.

Complete the details below to define what the simulation is about, who the learner will interact with, and the key information that shapes the character:

- Choose the simulation’s **Sector**, **Subject**, and **Character Type**, and give it a **title**.
- Add the character’s **demographic details**, **location**, and **scenario info**, the information the learner will see.

Let's get started 🚀

Use the interactive walkthrough below to see how to configure a simulation's Identity.

**Info:&#x20;**&#x53;imFlow is continually expanding its **sectors, subjects, and character types**. If you’d like to see a new subject, character type, or sector - such as **business, law, or construction**- contact <u>**info\@SimFlow**</u>**.&#x20;**&#x48;ealthcare is currently SimFlow’s domain expertise, with expertise expanding into other areas.&#x20;

### Next Steps

After completing the **Identity** section, continue to <u>**[Scenario](docId\:Kylfx0aor5MzoeVbMM4Cb)**</u> to add the scenario information the learner will see.
