Character Stencils
My friends and I have worked on putting together a 'perfect' layout for characters that provides all the information that is needed to paint a clear picture in other players' heads of your OC.
Don't stress over filling every single slot, we're just looking for an overall idea of what your character is like. =)
If you have ~no~ idea on what to put in a slot, don't worry about it. You can leave it blank and come back to it later if you want by using that lovely "edit" button.
If a category (such as affiliation or footwear) does not apply to your character, you can leave it blank, type N/A or just say "None".
Additionally, if you wanted to post a URL to a picture of your character's... let's say shoes, hairstyle and jacket; that's a perfectly acceptable option. =D
I just ask that you try to keep to this outline, because it prevents confusion by having several different character sheet types.
If you wanted to add your own extra categories, you can create them under "Other Notes". It is not a "requirement" per-se, but it -is- nice to see a clear and familiar format between characters of multiple people.
