A custom one I made myself xD The Hive Cluster with some queens to make a large clan of Hivers.

Just finished the slave start for the first time. It's not my favorite.

[ElZavier]

Torso Solo Start, the absolute way of playing Kenshi.

[Cuddle_Rat]

Rebirth slave or wanderer are my go to's.

I made my own start, 5 nobodies, not starved in Squin, with 100 000 cats (for mod testing purposes)

[TPTI]

The Nobodies 5 people with nothing.

Cannibal Hunters is really strong if you want to have a bed of Cats to start your game with, since looting the ruins near where you spawn is pretty easy once you know how to run from the Cannibals. Good opportunity for RP, you start with a second person which can make for interesting stories, and gives you a solid goal, defeating the cannibals.

The Nobodies is my favorite since I can start training five people at once, and I prefer to train people in groups rather than one at a time, since it's more efficient with my time. Plus, unlike the Hunters start, you start with basically nothing except probably a bit of scrap to sell, enough to buy junk weapons or food. I try not to lure enemies to gate guards or steal, and generally don't loot things I don't defeat myself, so the challenge is interesting. You can be five holy nation greenlanders, five bandit shek, five skeletons, very adaptable start.

Rock Bottom or Torso Solo are interesting the first few times, and I can recommend them, but I have done the other two above starts much more.

Honestly my first time playing I went with Holy Sword, and in many ways it still remains my fave. I really loathe everything about the HN so have no issue with starting with them wanting me dead. The sword lets your character have a clear weapon focus early on. It seems like most wont even try to loot it from you due to the nature of the bounty on it. There are mods that enhance it without making the start itself OP as you are still a basic nobody just with a really good sword.

Recently though I have been doing the start with nothing and missing an arm, and have to admit I have quite enjoyed the adventures of The 1 Armed Man!

[JediKnightSky]

Oh and while it is a mod, and a rather advanced character start I did enjoy a Noble Hunter mod start that is quite lore friendly putting you in command of one of those roving Noble Hunters with a pack of samurai guards and slaves that wanders the UC. While obviously a very powerful start, if one just wants to get into the action of wandering and fighting it is great, and you will feel right at home in the world.

Either Rock Bottom or Rebirth Slaves by far

For Vanilla, I like the Rebirth start. Universal Wasteland Expansion has some great and unique starts. One of them is in Mongrel, you're just another person trapped there, can you ever get out? And the one I'm playing right now starts me as a custom race, "reptilian" that is located in a smallish town in the swamp area surrounded by hostiles like Red Sabres and such. Or you can start as a fogman in Mongrel and try to wipeout Mongrel and eventually all the other hivers. You are allowed to recruit random fogmen from spawns and you can either level them up or use them like zerg to overwhelm stronger guards and such. Very creative.
