Okay, so you wanna make a character huh?

Good on you! Just make sure you use the template and a mod or admin will accept it quickish. Very Happy

[b]Age:[/b] (Simple enough.)
[b]DoB:[/b] (Date of Birth in case you didnt know)
[b]Gender:[/b] (Male or Female)
[b]Special Position:[/b] (If you have been given one then put it here. Otherwise write N/A)

[b]Personality:[/b] (Describe every aspect of your characters personality. This is one of the most important things. Their personality DEFINES them. So make it good and interesting.[/b]

[b]History:[/b] (Where your character came from plays a significant role in how they end up. We aren't asking for a detailed account of every waking moment of their life, just about their life shortly before the FAYZ till now)[/i]

An Example

Characters Full Name: Richard Staine
Age: 14
DoB: 14th July 1997
Gender: Male
Special Position: Elected Leader Of Perdido Beach


Looks: Richard was no movie star. He did not have an award winning smile and beautifully slick hair. Who did in the FAYZ? Richard had more subtle good looks. He had dark brown hair in a disorganised fashion and had light brown, almost hazel, eyes that were constantly in a criticizing and analytical gaze. His constantly expressionless face was free of the blemishes and impurities that usually plagued the kids of his age. Some people would count him extremely lucky not to go through the akward phase but to him it made no matter. He cared little about what he looked like to other people, he just cared how they acted toward him, and even that just barely. Richard is average height for his age and is rather slim in comparison to the brawling bullies of Perdido Beach, but he had never been picked on. Once.

This is a picture of him before the FAYZ.

Character Application Template Richard

Personality: Some people called him a cold and boring person someone who was just cursed with bad social skills. Others said he was just a really serious person, incapable of compassion, intimate feelings or fun. The truth was... he was a bit of both. He was an inward person, capable of making intelligent conversation, quite good at it actually, but he preferred to keep to himself. He wasn't particularly book smart but had other intellectual gifts. His stragetic mind, risk assessment and abnormally high skills of persuasion. He has few friends but many acquantinces, that was how he had always kept it.

Power: Richard is a four bar freak with the power of Empathy. Empathy is the ability to sense, and influence, a persons emotions. At four bars, Richard is not only able to sense people's emotions but is able to subtly suggest them. This means he could not outwardly make a person angry, but could plant the suggestion in their mind if iit makes sense. He cannot make the happiest person in the world into a suicidal maniac, but he could negate their emotion and make them neutral, or amplify their emotion. If they had a reason to be sa,he could play on that. At four bars, Richard could alter an entire crowds emotions when he strains, hence why he is the leader of Perdido Beach and likes to take naps after he has finished speaking. The only time it would fail would be when they either knew what he was doing or had an high level mental ability (like a telepathic) to combat this and even then they would struggle to do so. If there was a four bar telepathic then they would be able to read Richard's thoughts and stop the process immediately.

To use his power, he must point his open palm toward his target or touch them. At four bars he is able to read people's true emotions and not just fake ones.

Weapons: Richard does not carry weapons of any sort for two reasons. One, he was the elected leader of Peridido Beach and no one would try to attack him because of his influence, and two because he could just make of him.

History: Although his pale skin doesn't show it, RIchard is half italian. His dad had illegally immigrated to Perdido Beach 22 years ago and had met his mum, who was a local girl, when he was trying to buy a house. She was the land-lady, which meant they hadplenty of oppurtunity to talk to each other. Slowly they became closer and closer and soon started to go out with each other... then eventually got married. Richard was born in 1997 and they grew up happily up until the FAYZ.

However before the FAYZ Richard was already aware of his ability. He started to become extremely perseptive. He could tell when people were lying or when people were sad or happy. But what really got to him was the true emotions of his father. His father hated his mother deeply. He had only used her to gain his American citizenship and left a few days later to move to New York or some other big city. As he was getting in his car, leaving Richard's mum weeping on the doorstep, he rantoward him to give him a piece of his mind. Then Poof. His Dad disappeared. He looked back toward his mother to see she was gone too. Things were getting extremely wierd. He wondered toward the town plaza were a bunch kids were already, looting and beating the crap out of each other. They were out of control but it didn't matter to Richard. He just had to survive himself.

A few months later things were getting bad. Killings from careless bullies beating the crap out of younger kids was more frequent. People were robbing houses for alcohol, ciggarettes and drugs. Babies were crawling around the plaza uncared for and mny had died. Things were getting out of hand and he soon feared for his own safety. Someone had to take control, and since no one else was he might as well. He called up a meeting, worked his freakish power and soon had them all obeying him with a mixture of fear and respect.


NOTE: It's not as much as it seems, I just made the text bigger Smile

Characters Full Name: Nola Hollow
Age: 14
DoB: October 31st, 1996
Gender: Female
Special Position: N/A


Looks: Nola is 5'3" and has always been slight, but, like most kids in the FAYZ, she is now almost unhealthily thin. She is very pale, with large black eyes, which always seem to have purple circles under them. She has very long black hair, which is thin and scraggly. Her hair is often in her face, which has sharp features that often have a hint of sadness and frustration to them.

Personality: Nola has always been mature for her age and is keen to follow the rules. She tends to be stern and stoic, but has a wicked and sarcastic/sardonic sense of humor. When she does get emotional she is very intense and serious. She's can be cold and calculating, but this makes her great when it comes to plans and strategy. However due to this nature she has trouble making split second decisions or doing jobs where impulsive behavior is key. Nola is respectful of other's privacy and doesn't like it when people are nosy.

Power: Three bar. Ability to create and control ice. If water isn't around to convert she forms it from the humidity in the air, or, if desperate, from the water in her body. However if there is low humidity (say, if she's in the desert or surrounded by fire) or if she's dehydrated her powers can become compromised. Can freeze anything within thirty feet of her solid (though will take a few moments), can levitate smaller bits of ice, form sheets of ice, make ice stakes, and launch bits of ice up to forty feet. Once the ice gets outside of her range she can't control it.

Weapons: None, will use powers for defense

History: Nola was born in New Orleans, Louisiana and was, in fact, named after the abbreviated term for the city. (New Orleans, Louisianan= NOLA) Her mother was a successful surgeon and her father was a psychiatrist, but both rarely had time to pay attention to their daughter and were rarely around. Nola was taken care of by her nanny Carmen, an older woman from Mexico. Nola was very close to Carmen, who she called Nana, and learned a lot from the woman, including a bit of about Mexico and some Spanish, but when Nola was ten her parents divorced.

Nola's mother gained custody and moved her daughter from New Orleans to California to get away from her old life. Nola has lived in the FAYZ for the last four years. She resents her mother, who was often away at work in the hospital in Santa Barbra, and misses Carmen. If they ever get out of the FAYZ she plans to find away to move back to New Orleans with her father so she can see Carmen again. Nola has a faded New Orleans accent and some first aid knowledge gleaned off her mother.
