Whenever you come up with a good idea for a character, it's always nice to figure out exactly who they are and what they can do. For this purpose, you can use a template of some kind; Here are some you can fill out to figure out who your character is. You can even make up your own segments to fill, if you want! This is just a suggestion!
<blockquote class='quote_blockquote'><dl><dt>Quote:</dt><dd> </dd></dl><div><small>Name: Well, you have to call them something.
Gender: Are they male, female, neither?
Race: You can be something simple, from human, to a creature of your own creation.
Appearance: What does your character look like?
Abilities: Can they run fast? Can they fly? Use magic? Do they have special abilities? If so, this is the place to put them.
Personality: How do they act? Happy? Sullen? Dark and brooding?
History: The rest of this template says who your character is. But now, you have to write out who they were.
Notes: Anything that doesn't fit any of the other segments can go here!</small>[/quote]
