The first thing you need to do before making a character is to do a bit of research. Look around on the site and see if there's anything that you would like to be and read their entry. Then, think about your character and how you want them to be. Fill in the template that is given below and post it in this thread.
Name The name of your character
Gender Male or female?
Age Hold old your character is. If it's a species that you're not sure about age, just put what they are in human years.
Race Which race they are
Title See the title under my name? *points to the "Narnian Loremaster" under her name* That's my title. Right now, yours is based on how many posts you make. Once you get approved, I put the title that you want instead of the other one. That way, everyone knows that you've been approved.
Eye The colour of your character's eyes
Hair The colour of your character's hair/fur
Height How tall your character is. If your character walks on 4 legs, it's how tall they are at the shoulder.
Appearance (optional) Use this place to describe any abnormal items on their body or to describe in more detail what they look like (ex. noticeable scars, different colours on fur, etc)
Clothing (optional) Clothes that your character normally wears. If you are a Talking Beast or another race that doesn't normally wear clothes, but you do, this would be a good thing to have.
Occupation (optional) If your character has a job, say what it is here.
Personality What is your character like? If they are mysterious, tell why they have chosen to be mysterious. Remember, even if your character doesn't know, you as the author does.
Strengths What your character is good at
Weaknesses What your character is bad at.
Belongings Mention any important items that your carries with them like weapons or items given to them by their parents. If they don't have any weapons or anything important, then you may omit this part out.
History A brief history of your character's life. Put any major events of their life here.
Since I'm doing this on an approval rating, the message icons will be used so I can tell who needs to be checked and who is done, etc. So, here is your list of what icon will be used for when.
Thank you and please remember to follow these rules. I hope your CD approving process is a quick and painless one. If I have major problems or need to repremend you, I'll PM ya so yeah...hopefully I won't have to do that.

Since I'm doing this on an approval rating, the message icons will be used so I can tell who needs to be checked and who is done, etc. So, here is your list of what icon will be used for when.
- Lamp- If you're still working on your CD, or if you're making revisions, use this one. After I check through your CD and see major changes that need to be done, I will put this up for you so you can tell at a glance.
- Exclamation Point- Use this if you think that you're all done and are needing me to look at it.
- Thumbs Up- Do Not put this icon up. This is for my own use. I will change it to your CD and leave it up for a bit so that you can see that you are ready to RP. After it being up for a bit, I will then move your CD to the CD Archives.
Thank you and please remember to follow these rules. I hope your CD approving process is a quick and painless one. If I have major problems or need to repremend you, I'll PM ya so yeah...hopefully I won't have to do that.
