CHARACTER CREATION RULES
Welcome to Erelam. You may dive right into creating your character after reading the board rules, character creation rules, and the Banned Species/ Characters list.
Thereafter, please go to the Character Creation forum and utilize the Character Creation Template to post your Character's biography in a new topic.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NAMING YOUR CHARACTER Your character's account must be named properly. i.e "Tannis Gar", "Hala Jast", "Omnivorei"
Random names, such as "overvigorxizor", that don't properly represent your character's name or what he would be called in a role-play is not acceptable, and you will be asked to change your name.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
YOUR AVATAR You must choose an avatar for your character before beginning to role-play.
You must have an avatar for each character you create at Erelam and it must represent your character.
You must not use ANIME.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
YOUR SIGNATURE
You may only have 5 total images inherently visible in your signature.*
*Hide the rest in a spoiler.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CREATING YOUR CHARACTER If your character's species is a hybrid of 3 or more species, you must first submit this new "hybrid species" to the Species Creation Codex.
Your character is not God, he is not immortal and he is not invincible. While you're providing your character strengths, be sure to provide him weaknesses as well.
Your character profile sheet does not require approval.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
YOUR CHARACTER'S ITEMS Please list all items your character owns providing they are reasonable, are welcome. Please also list the items that you create in the Forge in your character profile sheet.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHARACTER BIOGRAPHY TEMPLATETITLE/CHARACTER NAME GOES HERECharacter images go here.
NAME: Give your character a name, even if it might not be their real one. Remember, be original and don't use canon names FROM OTHER UNIVERSE, GAMES ETC.
FACTION: A faction helps a character get into the scene and grow in strength. Feel free to join any that suit the character.
RANK: As a member of society, your character might have a rank that exemplifies his or her importance.
SPECIES: ERELAS is filled with many different species, so choose wisely.
AGE: This helps as a quick gauge for other writers to guess how old your character would look.
SEX: Note whether your character ismale, female, trans-gendered, etc..
HEIGHT: This will help writers know the size of your character.
WEIGHT: This will help writers know the size of your character.
EYES: Sometimes eye color might not be apparent in an avatar - especially if the avatar dons a mask.
HAIR: Just as eye color, if the avatar of the character has a hat or helmet, it is hard to tell what his or her hair color is.
SKIN: And just as the other two categories, the skin color might not be apparent depending on attire.
MAGIC SENSITIVE: Whether or not your character is sensitive to the Force is important.
