    What do you mean by characters? You would need some kind of image editor to create textures, almost certainly, and if you are hoping to sell at DAZ you would probably need to create custom morphs by adjusting the mesh directly in a modelling or sculpting application, for a character for an existing figure; for a new figure you would definitely need a modelling application. DAZ Studio does have the tools needed to turn models, new shapes and texture images into a new character add-on or a new figure though.

    DAZ Studio isn't a modeller, so you would import your model from Maya (OBJ format, UV mapped and ideally grouped) into the Figure Setup pane to create your hierarchy, then click the Create button in there to place the figure in the scene for editing the weight maps and adjusting joint centres and orientation. Morphs (blend shapes) can then be imported, in OBJ format again, using the Morph Loader plugin from Edit>Figure and materials set up in the Surfaces pane.
