Character Template

[๖ۣۜSαᴙαh]

Whenever you create a character, start a new topic in this folder (Characters). Copy and paste the template below into a new topic and name the topic with your character's name (or TBA if you are not sure of the name--you can then go back and edit it at your leisure). When you are completely finished, post a 2nd comment on the thread advising me that it is done. I will look over your character and critique it. Once approved, you can then move your character (with formatting) to the Characters topic.

If you want you can create NPCs (non-playable characters) in order to flesh out your story. Please post all NPCs in the Characters fold like you would with a regular folder and I will critique it. Once it has been approved, you may move it to the NPCs folder. Please note that all NPC characters should be concise and to the point. I will ask that you LIMIT the amount of description that you give.
FURTHER NOTE: NPCs' sole purpose is to move plot along. So make sure to be clear about their characteristics and keep in mind that they are semi two-dimensional.

I am particular about correct grammar and will ask you to properly capitalize and punctuate. I like things pretty.
*Note: capitalize only proper nouns.


***Follow this format (remove the periods; do not delete or add blank lines):***

<.b>Name:<./b>
» <.i>Alias:<./i> (Gods and goddesses tend to only have one real name, but if your character dabbles with mortals, they might have an alias.)
*<.i>(Explanation of Names)<./i> (not mandatory)

<.b>Gender:<./b>

<.b>Species:<./b> (Deity, Demigod, Human, etc.)
» <.i>Planet:<./i> (Ruler only)
» <.i>Element:<./i> (Ruler only)
*Note: There is a limit of 9 greater gods; see claims thread to make a reservation.

<.b>Age:<./b> XX (Demigods and Humans only)
*Note: Gods and goddesses are immortal; demigods live for much longer than mortals.

<.b>Occupation:<./b> (If applicable--probably only so for humans.)

<.b>Personality:<./b> (please elaborate)
<.i>Trait 1:<./i>
<.i>Trait 2:<./i>
<.i>Trait 3:<./i>
<.i>Trait 4:<./i>
<.i>Trait 5:<./i>

<.b>Appearance:<./b> (embed image please)
<.IMG SRC.=" url here "> (remove the periods and don't have a space between the url and the "s)
*No celebrities. Drawings/anime is okay.
<.i>Height:<./i>
<.i>Weight:<./i>
<.i>Hair colour:<./i>
<.i>Skin colour:<./i>
<.i>Eyes:<./i>
<.i>Body type:<./i>
<.i>Pitch of voice:<./i>
<.i>Distinguishable markings:<./i>

<.b>Weakness(es):<./b>

<.b>Strength(s):<./b>

<.b>Biography/History:<./b> (At least 5-7 sentences, please. If your character is a god or goddess, I don't need a play by play of everything they've done. Keep it relevant; keep it short and sweet.)

<.b>Relation(s):<./b> (list in descending order of age)
» <.i>Name<./i> - Type; Age; Occupation; etc.
*Note: This list is for family, friends and acquaintances.

<.b>Power(s):<./b> (Gods and demigods only)
*Note: Try to keep your powers themed; for example, if you can read minds with telekinesis, you probably don't have hydromancy.
If your character is a demigod, your power must be approved by me so expect a critique on this.

<.b>Weapon(s):<./b> (if any)

<.b>Fighting Skill(s):<./b> (if any)

<.b>Other:<./b> (do not leave this section blank; N/A doesn't count)
