Copy and paste the part under where it says "Code" into a new thread, and don't forget your RP example!!!
Name: This should make plenty of sense as is. You don't need a pronunciation key but that doesn't mean you can't have one.
Nickname: Also relatively self-explanatory on it's own.
Gender: Yeah, if you skip this part we'll probably freak.
Age: 1st years are generally 14-15; 2ed years around 15-16; 3ed around 16-17; and 4th around 17-18. Prodigies (grade skippers) need an approval from River
Year: 1st year is the equivalent of a 9th grader, and it goes on from there. This is a four year high school so we go up to 4th years, or the equivalent to a 12th grader.
Sexual Orientation: Heterosexual, Bisexual, Homosexual, etc. etc.
Relationship Status: Single or Taken I believe are the words.
Religious Beliefs: Christian, catholic, atheist, etc. etc.
Appearance/Wardrobe: Hair color, eye color, height, basic build, and clothing preference are basic necessities, but they won't get you far, details are absolute key as they contribute to originality. Blemishes, facial structure, etc. etc. the more detail the better.
Personality: Adjectives, we love adjectives. Ups to their personality, downs to their personality. Details, they are loved, and they are needed.
History: Family, friends, losses, moves, epiphanies, and other life changing moments and figures. We won't ask for every last detail, but we do ask for the important moments that take place in what passed of their life as well as how they ended up in FOA.
Strengths/Talents/Skills: The characters you're creating are people, people I say, people. They'll have many talents, many soft spots, that's what makes them human. Note the plural. Please. Powers are for River to approve. And no, absolutely nothing unrealistic. This is a more or less normal academy filled with more or less normal people. Not a magical school that trains mages and witches, that. Is. Harry. Potter.
Weaknesses: As stated above, note the plural.
Other: Whatever it was we forgot to add. Slight details that fit under none of the above, etc. etc.
RP example: This is an absolute requirement as is the rest of this form. Usually this totals to about a paragraph, or 4-6 sentences by definition, but that doesn't mean you can't do more, although less is probably a no-no. This RP is ultimately done in third person omniscient narrative, but one post is done in third person limited narrative, aka third person, past tense, one character, do not g-mod. Not first person. No second person. Third person. That means nouns, and third person pronouns, only.
