You really don't have to go too crazy with it.

I have the bad habit of making my sheets rather extensive and comprehensive- overtly so, in some cases. If I'm to be honest, it's more for my benefit than anything else. I like having a library of history from the beginning that I can reference as I RP, as it seems to keep me more collected and focussed. Don't worry about the lengthy read though, I'll include a summary.

Edit: You know what, scratch what I previously said. I'll draft another, shorter sheet so that I can get into the action quicker and not burden others with post-length. I'll keep the longer-length sheet for a mostly personal info-sheet, which I believe another RPer (Villageidiotx, perhaps) suggested on this thread a few pages back.
