So almost all our characters are weird. Not only are they weird, they have weird backstories. Not only do they have weird backstories, but they come from strange worlds.
Basically, I've noted that we've had some posts recently asking certain people for their powers. I want to make the post to end all explination posts:
The OOC Tell Us Everything Post.
If you could all take the time, please answer the following questions in as much detail as you can. In all cases, feel free to link to your personal journals or other websites -- this post is just meant to be a place where we can find all this information when we need it.
1. What are your character's basic stats?
For anime characters, this is probably easy, heh. Things like full name, titles, age, height, weight, blood type (the most useless statistic of all time, but whatever!), etc.
2. Please give some canon explanation stuff here.
Share this info here, copy-paste from an app, link to your app, or link to something completely different. Or do some combination. Try to make sure that it explains why the character is the way they are, the way they are, and any miscellaneous factoids that might come into play -- for example, "Rinko loves animals."
As Ash suggested: origin and emo backstory go here. Anything that's contributed to the way your character is today can go here -- as Russel pointed out in IRC, Izumi is missing organs. Stuff like that goes here as well. Rey has degenerating telomeres that are causing him to age rapidly. That goes here. Meer is dead. That goes here.
3. What skills or powers does your character have? In particular, list any skills or powers that could be used in a combat situation.
I'm asking for as much detail as you can give -- ninjas, that means all your jutsu. Psychics, an explanation of how your powers work. Perhaps most importantly: how much of this can be detected, and what people will notice it? How do your powers work in camp, and how do they work considering how many other people are around?
Also note here if your character has any particular physical prowess and your physical condition, strange immunities... anything that makes your character different from a normal person.
4. Quick List of Friends and Foes.
Link to a relationship list or, for the really lazy among us, note any outstandingly important relatsionships in camp.
***
Of course, don't feel limited to only answer the areas that I have above (and definitely suggest more things for me to put in this meme post thing!). Share as much about your character as you can that will make interaction easier. If you'd like to do all of this in your own journal rather than posting it here, please leave a link in this post.
