HOW TO CREATE A NEW CHARACTER
Welcome to Chaos. Set nearly 850 years after the battle of Yavin, the galaxy is recovering from a 400 year dark age brought on by a
plague. The Galaxy is torn apart by war as Major Factions vie for power. If you want more information on the setting head over to the (
Timeline Articles).
STEP 1
Let's begin. After Registering, every time you Log In you will do so as your
Writer's Account. This is the Display Name you selected when Registering. From here we will start creating new characters. So let's go to your Profile Page. To do this click on your
Avatar Picture or use the drop down box.
STEP 2
Now. Once on your Profile Page go ahead and click the button in the upper right-hand corner called
Characters. See picture below. Now, this will open up another window showing all of your characters. Since you just registered? It should be empty right now. So go ahead and click on the button called 'Create Sub-Account'. This will create a new Sub-Account which we call
Character Accounts. Remember. The Display Name for your Sub-Account should be that of your new character.
STEP 3
Now read the (
Character Creation Rules).
STEP 4
Go to the (
Character Creation Forum). See all the Threads with Character Names. Click on one of them and browse it for ideas. When you are finished browsing, go ahead and click on the (
Character Creation Template Thread) and scroll down to post #2. Copy the Template using your mouse.
STEP 5
Create a
New Topic in the Character Creation Forum. Name your new topic after the Character you are now making. Paste the Template into the Editor and begin filling in the blanks. When you are finished press
Preview Post. This is only a Preview. Use it to proof-read and to check for spelling or formatting errors. When you are finished, press
Post New Topic. If you are unsure what to use as your rank, check out the (
Ranks and Promotions Rules). Characters transferred from another forum are handled on a case-by-case basis and require Admin approval for rank transferral, otherwise Force Users start at Padawan/Apprentice/Acolyte.
CONGRATULATIONS
You have now learned how to create new
Character Accounts underneath your
Writer Account. And how to post
Character Profiles for each of them. Well done. You are on your way to becoming an excellent Roleplayer.
