Now that you've read the rules and are familiar with how the site works, it's time to create your first character. To get a greater feel for the setting it's recommended you also glimpse through some of our cities and towns before you begin working with a mod to create a character.
While Ceriah has systems focused on trainers and training Pokemon, you have the freedom to create characters of almost any occupation you choose. Feel free to create characters with no interest in Pokemon or purely social characters for whatever kind of roleplay you desire.
Appearance, Personality, and History may all be written as bullet-points or any other format the roleplayer prefers if they are well-written and and well thought out. Any format that covers all the necessary sections and is both decently fleshed-out and understandable can be accepted.
Name: Your character's first and last name. Use realistic names please. Your characters should not be named after characters in media.
Gender: Pretty self explanatory.
Age: How old your character is. A character must be at least eighteen to have a trainer's license.
Appearance What your character looks like and how they generally dress. There is no word minimum and you must describe your character thoroughly. Some things to remember to include would be height, weight, build, complexion, hair color and style, eye color, facial features and what style of clothes they're generally seen in. Characters must be realistic. A picture does not replace a written description and there are no face claims.
Personality How your character behaves and thinks. There is no word minimum. Describe your character thoroughly. We ask that you avoid making characters with serious disorders such as schizophrenia or multiple personal disorder to avoid offensive portrayals of these very serious disorders. You may opt out of having this public and instead PM it to the mod reviewing your character.
History How your character spent their life up until now and what made them who they are today. The highlights of their life and how they felt about them should be included here. It's advised that you work with a mod as you write your history to avoid any clashes with our canon that may result in major editing once you've already finished. You may opt out of having this public and instead PM it to the mod reviewing your character.
