This is a place where we will keep all characters for all role plays here. I will do an alphabetic list of the characters in here, just give me some time after you've posted to get into the chart. Below is a literate character profile, and as that, may seem scary. Honestly, it's the same as descriptions, age, gender, skills, just typed out in a little more detail.
This a sugestion for a character set up from Shouyin at Leviathan stadium.
Quote:
Basic Overview of the Person
Give a general overview on the person on top. When you look at this overview you should see at once
- who this person is/was (name)
- age/birthdate
- race and gender
Appearance
Please give a description of the person. The more accurate the better, as this may also help artists to draw a good pic from this information later on. Include a physical description, as well as things like armor, weapons and equipment.
Abilities
What can your character do? Are they as strong as an ox, faster than a cheetah, or can they shoot laserbeams with the white hot intensity of a thousand suns out of their eyes? Whatever traits make your character unique, include here. Try to be as detailed as possible, since this is where most roleplay disputes arise.
Personality
Add all personality traits of a person here, which you deem important to be included in the entry. Mention whether this person has a humorous character, is stern, determined or hot-tempered - or everything at the same time. What does he/she do, like? - Whatever helps to define the individuality of the person should be put in here.
History
Write in detail where the person grew up, which education he/she got etc. Just mention all important incidents in the persons life, and as often as possible: Try to add dates which make the entry more accurate from the historical point of view. You don't really need to go into all the exact details - at least the entry should also be an interesting read, eh?
Importance (optional)
At the final section of the entry you can/should try to talk a bit about the general importance of the person, e.g. if you describe a king you can describe how his people liked him, which impact all the things he did were for later generations he did, if there exist some kind of lore or anecdotes etc.
Picture (optional)
Also try to find a pic perhaps for the person you describe. You can also look around first of course, decide that a certain pic would make a good character and start your bio according to the pic (but you should check first in this thread if the pic isn't already in use for someone else).
If you follow these guidelines I'm sure developing a character is much easier and will produce better results. - Happy developing!
