Character Creation Guide
Below is the character profile sheet. You may copy and paste it and use it as a template for your character. Please adhere to the rules given on each of the descriptions, as explained in the guide below. All characters require two staff approvals. The following detailed below must be adhered to when creating your profile. We here at SWL like to keep things familiar but you are more than welcome to toy around with the layout of the profile as long as the meat and bones is still there!
Only original characters will be considered on this board. Characters should not be canon characters and should be not be related through family ties.
Some characters are not allowed on this board. Ancient species and extinct species are prohibited from being used simply because they do not fit the current timeline of the board.
All new members’ characters begin at the lower ranks. Padawan, apprentice, private, and so forth are considered lower ranks. If you are unsure about the ranking system, please do not hesitate to ask. Starting off at a lower rank can be waived if there is a position in a faction open, and the applicant has been approved by a staff member. Below is a list of the highest ranks possible for each said faction, remember to check the news forum because we often times allow higher ranked characters because we may be in short supply. Also, you may create a higher ranked character if you have a previous high ranked character.
You must explain how powerful your Force Powers are. All members are allowed to begin with up to four Force Powers and rank them no higher than moderate. You should make it believable for the rank of your character, such as padawans and apprentices, because you can update it as you go along anyway. For members creating Jedi or Sith characters with some training, then Core Powers do not count toward the initial four starter powers and are able to choose four powers outside of the Core Powers. Members creating a character that is not part of the Jedi or the Sith, is force sensitive, and has no prior training must take the four starter powers from the Core Powers, unless given permission otherwise by an admin.
No fanon powers. Canon powers only. Approved Force Powers can be found here. finaldawnroleplaying.proboards.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=starwarsapplications&thread=20&page=1
Lightsaber blade colours can be found here: starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Lightsaber_crystal#Known_color_crystals
You may only begin with 2 weapons. Additional weapons can be bought and/or role-played for in the course of RP.
Your character can start with a ship. The ship can either be a fighter or a light freighter.
Your character can also have Companions if they want, maximum custom companions is 10. However that doesn't mean they can all be Jedi, they must vary a bit, some can be jedi but the others can't. Total of 5 companions can be or become Jedi (the or become jedi is if none of your companions are Jedi at the time.)
Romance between your character and 1 of your companions is allowed but don't go into serious detail.
Please provide all of the required information. It is encouraged that you make the sections for your profile, such as appearance, personality, and history, as detailed as you can.
Your character must be approved before you can post in any RP Forums. This forum is the exception.
Do not re-register another member account to create another character. Only one member account is needed, and all characters can be created and role-played from the same account.
