These are the two bio formats that you can choose from.
The Structured Version
The Unstructured Form
Description: While most sites have structured bio formats, the new bio 'form' for this site is relatively unstructured. A bio should just be an explanation of your characters history. The only requirements are that the bio needs to be long, and that it needs to be in-depth. Also, you need to say your characters age, name, and somewhat describe what they look like. Also, considering how important gifts are in this site, you should devote a decent part of your bio to explaining your characters gift. 500 words-ish is a good length. The bio would preferably be in first person, like your character is talking. If you run out of things to talk about, some topics are listed below.
-childhood/parents/any weird circumstances during early years
-friends or family
-enemies (if your character has them)
-how the characters gift developed
-their reaction to coming to The Havens
-what they look like
-anything they regretted doing in the past
