Introduction

A bio is a description and history of your character combined into one. Bios are really fun to make because you can be whatever you want to be. First off think about the kind of character you want to play. Do you want to be a dashing smuggler, like Han Solo? A brash pilot like Wedge Antilles? A Jedi-in-training like Luke Skywalker at the beginning of A New Hope? A headstrong diplomat like Princess Leia? The list goes on and on.

Remember don't choose a character just because he's "more powerful" or “he makes the most money”. Jedi characters, for example, take a long time to become powerful and have many limitations. The dark side calls Jedi characters more than any other and they have to be more careful of their actions.

Also make sure that your character fits the SWORPG campaign. This is a Jedi Campaign so I would like to have few Jedi in the game. Since the timeline is set after the Jedi Praxeum has been established for quite some time, the Jedi are thriving, hence it's okay to make a young Jedi character.

How To Make a Detailed Character

All you have to do to make your character is follow these guidelines:

• Player Name: (your real name)
• Player E-mail: (your e-mail address)
• Your Time Zone: (+ or -, in relationship to Eastern Standard Time, if possible)
• Character Name: (name and rank, if any)
• Template: (occupation)
• Species: (If you are an alien, a female, or a combination of both, who wants to join the Empire, you better give me an overwhelming background as to WHY you should be accepted into the Empire. Sorry to be tough on this point ....but the Empire is THE EMPIRE)
• Sex: (male, female or other)
• Age:
• Height: (in feet and inches)
• Weight: (in pounds)
• Eye Color:
• Hair Color:
• Physical Description: (What does your character look like? Figure out height, weight, eye color, hair color, and other physical qualities. Is your character in shape or overweight? Attractive or plain? Be sure to list anything unusual about you character, like tatoos, scars, bright blue hair, etc. You can go into a TON of detail if you'd like. The more you make up, the more realistic your character will seem, and the better you can play that character out...A Dark Jedi wouldn't simply be described as: Big, Evil, wears a lot of black. More detail.)
• Affiliation: (Empire, New Republic, Independent, or other)
• Weapon(s) of Choice:
• Equipment:
• Ship: (see below for how to make a ship)
• Special Talents(if any): (You can put known Force powers here. [go to The Jedi Handbook for a list of all known Force powers.]
• Home Planet: (preferably a planet in the known Star Wars galaxy)
• Enemies: (can be other player characters as well as NPCs)
• Background: (This should explain your character’s origin and the events that have made them who they are today. It should be AT LEAST 2/3 of a page long. ONLY CHARACTERS WITH A GOOD AMOUNT OF DETAIL WILL BE ACCEPTED!!!)

NOTE: I will not accept "The best bounty hunter in the galaxy" and other god-like characters. Please don't waste my time with "The Lost Brother of the Emperor" or this "Wedge Antilles’ clone" stuff. I think you understand all that by now though!

How To Register Your Ship

• Name: (if any)
• Craft: (The ships manufacturer, name, and model number.)
• Type: (The ship's general classification: ex. space superiority star fighter, corvette etc.)
• Scale: (starfighter, capital, etc.)
• Length: (in meters or kilometers)
• Crew:
• Passengers: (The number of passengers and troops that may be carried(beyond the crew complement)
• Cargo Capacity: (This indicates - either in metric tons or kilograms - the amount of cargo a ship can carry. This refers to the cargo's mass only, not volume)
• Consumables: (A measure of the ship's air, food, water, and fuel and how long it can travel before having to stop for refueling and resupply.)
• Nav. Computer: ("Yes" or "No." Ships with nav computers may calculate hyperspace journeys with their on-board computers. Ships without nav computers require astromech droids to calculate hyperspace journeys.)
• Hyperdrive Multiplier: (x.5 is extremely fast and x5 is very slow)
• Hyperdrive Backup: (if any, same as above only usually slower)
• Maneuverability: (8 can turn on a dime and 1 just barely can move)
• Space: (How fast the ship travels at sublight speeds in space. 20 is faster than an A-wing and 4 is pretty slow)
• Atmosphere: (How fast the ship travels in an atmosphere in kilometers per hour)
• Hull: (This is how tough the hull of the ship is and how well the ship can withstand damage in combat. 1 is weak and 8 is strong)
• Shields: (0 is no shielding and 10 or above is really heavy shielding)
• Weapons: (number of lasers, missiles, or other weapons)
• Modifications: (anything special you want me to know about)
• Starfighter Complement: (if any, how many squadrons)

NOTE: I have the right to accept, decline, OR change any character or ship. The choice whether to accept, decline, or change is solely up to me. I will almost definately end up altering your character or ship some so don’t be surprised! (I’ll be sure to let you know of the changes though.)
