Can i play as characters created by the Character pool? (XCOM 2)

Maybe this video will help

Already looked, did not help

They randomly appear in the game in the form of mercenaries, but they can appear at the very beginning of the game as recruits at the base.

(provided that when they were created, the type of recruit was chosen and not a sniper, for example)

I created two for the sake of interest, one was given as a reward for the mission (I chose a sniper, but they gave a recruit who upgraded to a sniper), the second as a mercenary in the headquarters, but something expensive

Oyyy understandable, now I'll fix it at myself, thanks for clarifying ^. ^

Let's change cool characters!
