I’m running a campaign and want to let a friend join in late with their own custom character. Is there a mod or built-in feature that allows adding a new player character after a campaign has already started? I’d like to avoid them having to take over an existing character and instead create someone new to join our ongoing game.

Actually, the base game already supports new players joining mid-campaign. When your friend joins, they should automatically get the option to create their own brand new character instead of using an existing one.
Yeah, it’s totally possible to have someone drop in late with their own build. The game locks new entries only when you hit the final boss fight. You’ll get a clear message about that cutoff, so before that, your friend can jump in and craft their own character easily.
Oh nice! Was that a feature added recently? Because a while back when my friend tried to join, it forced her to use an existing character, which was kinda frustrating.
