[@ShwiggityShwah], using the preformatted tag will let you show code as html reads it without it triggering ([b]pre[/b] and [b]/pre[/b] with the standard brackets and whatever you want to show between them). So: [pre][i][b]Example:[/b][i] Fancy Code[/pre] CS Template: [pre] [b]Name:[/b] Your characters full name and nickname or title [b]Age:[/b] Age doesn't really matter, Mankind has existed in Elysia for over a 1000 years and some races were here much earlier. [b]Gender[/b] Self explanatory. Some races have no genders, or three... yay genetic variability. [b]Race:[/b] Any you can think of. If you want to use a canon race, it will be part of Empires Tab (Coming soon) [b]Culture:[/b] If you are none human race, give a short description of their culture, helps with world building. For clarity, some races actually were born in Elysia, its been around for a long time. Some races didn't have any calamity or even knew about the gods until suddenly there were more planets in the sky than before, which I could imagine is still quite a shock. [b]Racial Features:[/b] List a few things that are unique about your particular race. [b]Appearance[/b] Picture or Description [b]Occupation/Concept[/b] How would your character describe themselves? Is he a fighter pilot, a prophet, a priest, a captain, a mercenary, a monster catcher, a demon hunter. Skies the limit here. [b]Training:[/b] List and describe atleast 3 particular skill sets your character is proficient at. They dont have to be just weapons. [list] [*] [/list] [b]Powers:[/b] As an Exalted you get divine gifts with your status. You are considered physically superior to others of your race, and your mental faculties and your sway over a crowd are now without biological limits, but your power manifests in other more spectacular ways. List 5 ways you manipulate essence as specific powers. These can be particular spells you can cast or magical effects you can use. Try to be creative. You could go for a particular theme and be a master of one element or you can grab bag of alot of different effects. As an Exalted, any power or magic is capable of being acquired through study or training. Listed examples will be in the Exalted and Magic Tabs. Coming soon. [list] [*] [/list] [b]Equipment:[/b] At the very least, unless they are from some backwater feral world your character has a universal translator implant (for understanding languages of others) and a PDA of some variety. Your PDA is essentially a smart phone. You can save info on it, contact people, play games, and if you are near a planet that has a network, you have access to the internet (Which may or may not be restricted) Sometimes ships will also have their own network, but only whats saved in the ships database is able to be accessed, sometimes with security restrictions. Anything else, is good to go. Weapons, Armor, Gadgets, Implants, Magical Artifacts, Magitech, Cybernetics, Special clothes, all that gets listed here. [list] [*] [/list] [b]Airship:[/b] It's perfectly fine to not have an airship, trust me there will be plenty. Look to the Airships tab for examples. Coming soon. Again picture or description [b]Motivation:[/b] What drives your character in life and what is their personal goal in this world? [b]Personality:[/b] How your character acts. Be as broad or specific as you like. [b]Flaws:[/b] All great heroes have tragic flaws. Substance abuse, PTSD, you cant fly a ship to save your life, or you just don't get along with people due to trust issues. If your race has a particular weakness. [list] [*] [/list] [b]Bio:[/b] Your character's personal history and major points in their life, maybe when and how you were chosen to be exalted. There will be very little I wont allow for someones backstory. Feel free to use worlds, races, empires, and events, again world building. [b]Extra Info:[/b] Anything more, maybe a pet, a personality quirk, an asset you can utilize? [/hider] [/pre]
