[@Nyxira] I just have a question for you. Can you not separate IC from OOC, and that's why you want to keep it hidden? Because you don't want people to power play? Because I can assure you, as someone who has been writing and roleplaying for ten plus years that keeping something out of your bio for the sake of intrigue doesn't make it more interesting. I really do not understand why you want to separate them out the way that you are trying. It just seems more complicated to me, and it really baffles me. I do think it is a bit lazy to write that way because on every site that I've been on, people like that generally write their characters that way because they don't have a past to put there, so they just make it up as they go. I'm really not trying to be an asshole, but it's hard for me to fathom the reason why you're wanting to keep it out. There will be plenty of intrigue in the thread, and even if you DO put their backstory in your sheet, it's up to you to use it in the thread itself and be creative in your wording and story telling.
