Hey So I'm Curious About Mcs Height, As In Is It Set Or Can We Headcanon/choose The Height?

Hey so i'm curious about mcs height, as in is it set or can we headcanon/choose the height?

Cause when meeting Amon the first time, it is said that the mc has to crane their neck to look at him, which kinda suggests that mc is like freakin short(around 5'3-5'5 and shorter) at least i think that this is short, and i know that he is like giant, but with an character who is maybe 6' feet and over it wouldn't make that much sense having to crane the neck.

Also this i just my personal feelings, but i am personally a bit uncomfortable to play a short mc, cause of trauma etc. so it would be appreatiated if you could clarify it, thx.

So River is written to be as "average" as possible so it's easier for people to both self-insert or create their own oc. Amon is characteristically tall in the sense that an MC of his height / close to his height / taller than him would be rare. Not that it's impossible or not encouraged! It's just that not being his height would be the most common scenario.

The "craning your neck to look at Amon" was mainly written for emphasis, not to establish a canonical height for the MC. Perhaps it was too exaggerated and I can find a better way to describe it.

You can even think about it as not strictly literal—he's huge not just physically speaking. There's not much more thought behind it, really!

Also, whether you'll be able to specify things as your height etc., is something we're not sure about yet. LiL is not a strictly self-insertsy, customize everything kind of story, but we'll see how it goes :^)
