Plot Update 10 March 2021

A year has passed since Fire Lord Zuko ascended the throne, and it seems like trouble is brewing between the Fire Nation and the Earth Kingdom once more.

I just created my account and would really, really like some advice or guidelines on how to create my character. I have a name, an element, and a general idea of who I want this person to be but I don't know where to start in actualizing this.

All help is greatly appreciated! ^__^

Hello! Nice to meet you, I'm Kami!

Well, what can I help you with? I can give you some general guidelines as to what to avoid by linking to this post, but otherwise I'll need a bit more direction from you on specifics. :]

Kami: I just sent you a PM on what I need help with :)
Airi: Thank you, I might! :)

But for anyone else, I'd really just like some tips on character creation. I'm planning on being an earthbender who comes from a well-to-do family in the Earth Kingdom capital. He's in his late teens. He has come to Republic City to live on his own, feeling that his old life was too sheltered.

EDIT: My question was answered. :)

I definitely recommend that you read the [rulesfaq] — there's information about what you can't have as a profile element. I also definitely recommend you reading the link I gave in my first post — we're having some problems with people coming up with the same ideas for their characters, and that post breaks it down further so you know what we've seen a lot of, and what to avoid.

I'm not sure what you mean by how we format our character post? The [rulesfaq] covers it in part, that all In-Character posts must be third person, past tense.

Before we continue, I need you to confirm to me that you HAVE read the [rulesfaq] entirely, because after seven years of us being around there is a GOOD CHANCE your question has already been answered! :]

I've read it, but I didn't see anything about how you're supposed to submit your character. That's what my question was.

Forgive me, not entirely sure I understand. ^^;'

I covered submitting a profile in our PMs. Was there something unclear about what I sent? If so, please let me know so I can clarify! :]

I was trying to answer your "how do you format your character post" question. :]
