Yes. The character you create, and the pawns you make will transfer over the main game whenever you launch it. Within the tool, you can have up to five main characters and five main Pawn designs.

The only thing to be aware of is that you will have to create the characters on the platform you intend to play the final game on, so do prepare for that.
