When you are ready to create your character, use the template below:
Now let's go through the template and explain each item real quick, shall we?
Name: (Obviously, your character's name. Rules for names are in the main forum rules, but to summarize: Use Japanese or Japanese-style names in the English format (first, last).)
Age: (For living humans, this is obviously your character's current age. However, since Players and Reapers don't age visibly, their age at death/apparent age should be listed. For example, if you died at age 15, but you appear to be 24, you'd put 15 (looks 24).)
Gender: (Another easy one, male or female.)
Appearance: (Describe your character in at least one good paragraph. Minimum of 50 words. Alternatively, you may post pictures in this section.)
Status: (Player, Reaper, Taboo Reaper, or Living Human.)
Rank: (Just say none to start with, unless you're applying for a Reaper. Reaper ranks include Support, Harrier, Officer, Conductor, and Composer. Conductor and Composer are staff-only ranks.)
Battle Style: (Pin Psych User, Medium Psych User, or Pure Psych User. Pin Psychs are abilities used via Pins, like Neku does in the game. They also extend to pins used by Reapers to summon Noise. Medium Psychs are abilities like Shiki's stuffed animal, Beat's skateboard, or Joshua's phone. Pure Psychs are abilities that can be used with pure imagination, with no physical medium. With some exceptions, you may only pick one.)
Pins: (Your starting pins. Players should pick two unbranded pins to start with, and be willing to change them if the staff asks you to. For Reapers, you may only pick two Low Tier Noise pins to utilize from the get-go.)
Medium: (For Medium users. If you don't use a Medium, just leave this field blank or fill in "N/A." This must be an item of great personal significance to you that you had on you at the time of your death.
Partner: (Your current partner. If you don't have one, leave this field blank. The pins Reapers choose to use are also going to be listed here, as the Noise pins serve as their partners.)
Points:(If you're a starter than you begin at 0. After the end of every day your talents and efforts into completing missions or erasing/battling Players/Reapers will be accounted for and you'll be given a point amount that mods or admins will add to your point count. Points are used to buy new pins or Noise usable by Players and Reapers.)
Personality: (Describe your character's personality in one or more good paragraphs.)
History: (In several paragraphs, describe your character's history. Family, friends, manner of death, and more should be included. Also list what your Entry Fee was, if applicable. Minimum 100 words for custom characters. Minimum 200 words for canon characters.)
RP Sample: (A short sample of your roleplaying style to show us how you would play the character. Minimum 50 words for custom characters. Minimum 200 words for canon characters.)
