It is not possible without some heavy NWNCX coding.

It can't be easily modified like nwn2.
Depends on what you want to do, artwork elements can be changed easily, layout and function takes major skills.
ETA: I took a little time to revise that conversation at bio forums

Poop. Alright, thanx guys.
I wish I could promise the time and effort for the nwncx to make that happen, but I will refrain no matter much I want to.

NWNCX development requires advanced skills in assembler, C/C++, reverse engineering, etc.
But more importantly, it relies on the client symbols I'm not allowed to distribute.

You actually have symbol files for the executables!? So... where do you live, again? 
I must say my opinion of you dropped slightly, I thought you did all that just by studying the disassembly.
As for the actual problem, you can modify the character creation .gui and .mdl files to show a new layout, and embed the text you want on the textures. You'd still have the same (max) number of elements, but you can change what they mean.
Might be useful if you don't use something normally.. For example, I've always hated Alignments, and getting rid of them gave me 1 out of 9 choice at character creation. Deity and Age also give you two string inputs. Subrace, etc.. In our ruleset, we don't use classes, and since I was unable to actually skip the entire class selection screen, it's reserved for some info/image, with only a single 'Next' button.

I don't have THAT much time to study pure disassembly.
Still, mapping out the structures takes a lot of time when I make NWNCX plugins.
