RPG Maker Forums

Hey, I'm new here. And I don't really know where to post things, so I'll start here.
I was thinking of getting myself an rpg maker myself- RMXP- but I can't find many discussions about it and most of the other RPG makers are expensive in comparison...

So I want to know if the following features are things that I could add/are possible using RMXP:

Portrait/bust images:
>I plan to make my own art. Including tilesets, sprites and portraits. But from what I've seen, most RPG games only include an image of a characters head. I would like to see if it's possible to add in images from the torso above. Like with games such as Corpse Party, Danganronpa, etc. So that I could convey a characters mood better than just their face, by using body language.

Adding your own music/art:
>Like I mentioned before, I want to add my own artwork. But I also want to add in my own music. I assume it's fairly straightforward with images. Like replacing the example sprite/images given with your own. Although I would like some clarification for how this works.
>As for music, I'm less familiar of. Say if I wanted to create my own music, would I have to use a digital software to create this music and then upload it to the RPG Maker? Or would I need something specific for it to work? Like a specific source I got the music from?

Adding gameplay systems:
>I've heard from RM: MV that it's possible to add pluggins to add more to your game. I've also noticed that some people have been able to make their own relationship system using RM: VX ACE and I was wondering if a similar system is possible to create on RPG Maker XP.
>I would like a relationship system/decision system that affects gameplay. One where conversations with characters leading to the final outcome of the game. Is it possible to create something like that?
>Is it possible to create chapters in RPG Maker XP? Maybe also chapter selections?

Sorry if these questions may sound dumb. I'm fairly new to how RPG Makers work...

Hey, so what species are your raptors? Any of these?
... so here's my main characters running around inside "Headspace", a place people use as a safe place away from anxious/panic related thinking.
