Character sheets are used to form detailed descriptions of a character for Titan Role Play. Characters and information in the character sheet is copyright the character's creator.

To begin creation of your own character sheet, add your name in the Completed Character Sheets section below. Follow this layout and fill in the information as desired.

Common Name

This is the character's common name, sans any title or rank. It is usually composed of a given name and a surname.

Full Title and Rank

This is the character's title(s) and rank(s), listed as in a formal introduction or written signature. If the character has multiple sets of titles, list them separately with the domain in parentheses. If no role-play titles exist for the character, simply list his rank in Dragon Court.

Race

This is the character's species. If the character belongs to a species that has multiple subsets, list the general species first with the more specific subset in parentheses. For example, if the character is a drow, the Race entry would be "Elf (Drow)". Likewise, if a character is a red dragon, the Race entry would be "Dragon (Red)". Also, if the character is a polymorph (natural or magical), list the original or preferred form first, followed by a slash ("/") and the word "Polymorph".

For most new characters, this will be one of the primary humanoid races: Human, Elf, Dwarf. Most exotic races will be permitted to new characters on a case-by-case basis. Stronger races will be subject to approval by the Roleplaying Council.

Magical Affinity

This is the character's magical affinity and will be one of seven options: Light, Shadow, Earth, Air, Fire, Water, or Void. This characteristic is also an indicator of a character's innate personality, so it should be considered very carefully.

Military Division/Rank

This section indicates in which of the eight division of the Titan Military the character serves and its rank in that division. If the character holds a specific title within that division, separate the title and the division with a slash ("/"). If the character does not hold rank in the Titan Army, put "Civilian". If the character is not a member of Clan Titan, either omit this section or put "Member of <Clan Name>".

The player will only select the division of the Titan Military the character wishes to be in. Rank placement and advancement will be managed on an in-character level by roleplaying as well as approval from the Roleplaying Council.

Character Overview

This is a short description of the character, usually one or two paragraphs.

Ability

This is an explanation of the character's abilities, mundane and/or magical. This section should be as long as it needs to be, but not more than two or three paragraphs. This section is also where unique or rare abilities would be described.

Physiology

This is an explanation of the character's physical makeup, if applicable. This entails clothing, physical appearance, and any special traits (in the case of elementals, golems, constructs, etc).

History

This section describes a character's history, usually to date. This should be a short history detailing the character's achievements and events since their coming to Titan (or Dragon Court, for non-Titan characters). This version will be released to the public.

For characters wishing to hold rank in the Roleplay Structure, a separate, all-encompassing history will be required. This longer version will be kept for archival purposes, and should include full details about the character's history including how the character obtained her abilities and kept up to date with all major events in the character's career. This version will not be released to the public and will be accessible only by the Roleplay Council, unless the player wishes to post it publicly on his own.

Mannerisms

This section describes in detail how the character acts and thinks. This section is separate from the Character Overview.

Properties of Choice

This is the character's preferred weapons or types of weapons. Any unique or named weapons should be described here. Also, this section include any specific artifacts, icons, or items of note. This section would also include specifics on pets or familiars.

Sociology

This section describes how the character interacts with other characters. Specific examples should be cited if key relationships exist. Marriages, close friends, family, and enemies should be described here.
