Here is a starting CS to get your juices flowing. I will not be doling out acceptances or rejections until the OOC is up, and I reserve the right to make whatever changes to this template I prefer at that point. [hider=Starter CS] [b]Name:[/b] What people call you. If this is unpronounceable/can only be typed with the CTRL or ALT keys, please include a shortened form. [b]Epithets:[/b] Titles, Sobriquets, Monikers, Nicknames, Aliases, etc. Go nuts. [b]Age:[/b] Time flows at different speeds between planes. How old are you on your home plane? [b]Home-Plane:[/b] Speaking of your home plane, where/what is it? Give me a description of what is unique about the world-shard that you are from, what sets it apart from the others and has contributed to making you the nightmare you are today. This place should have been conquered as part of your backstory, so if you wanted to describe the current status of your estate, this would be the place to do it. [b]Description:[/b] This is a joint section for both appearance and demeanor. I think it's safe to assume we're all evil bastards, and this isn't quite the right RP for a lot of navel-gazing about how mommy didn't love you, so we're keeping the personality descriptions short and sweet. Describe your character, getting across the features of their appearance and persona that you feel are relevant. [b]Backstory:[/b] Let me be crystal clear: I do not want pages of backstory here. Keep it short, sweet, and stick to three main points. 1. Who are you? 2. Why are you a villain? 3. How did you become an Archon? For the last question, generally speaking characters become Archons when they acquire a Shard of Chaos, typically somewhere along the course of them conquering their home plane. Shards are a bit like The One Ring in that they "want" to be found, so your tale of conquest does not necessarily have to include seeking the Shard out; one could easily happen upon one in the course of normal supervillainy. [b]Shard:[/b] Okay, now tell us about your Shard of Chaos. Remember that this is basically a phylactery containing a measure of the trapped power of Chaos. It is a physical object, each one unique to the plane it manifested on, and should in some way be thematic to your plane or character. They were formed when Creation was shattered, but can change shape so they could be a piece of "modern" technology, and it is rarely obvious what these truly are. Your Shard could bestow you with some kind of power, or it could be a cute accessory, but the feature they all have in common is that they are a direct link to Chaos itself and can hearthstone you back to Gladius, the interdimensional HQ of the Legion of Chaos. [b]Powers:[/b] Finally, this is where you can get into all of your powers, abilities, skills, magic, gadgets, talents, parlor tricks, and so on that make your character the terrifying force for evil that they are. Just give me the broad strokes, I don't want a spell list. [b]Misc:[/b] Anything else you feel like sharing not covered by the above. [/hider]
