Children of Axalon Character Submissions
From Axalon RPG
Okay, basically how this works is you write up a character on the wiki, link it from this page, and then the character mod will make comments and suggest revisions in the "discussion" attached to the character. Once things are all cool, the character is approved, and is moved to that category and put up on the main rpg wiki page, and, oh yeah, that means you can play them in the RPG now. More step by step instructions for people new to this wiki thing will come a little later.
Note: If you intend to use this character's name on another board, it might be useful to make the character's name "(COC) Name", where name=your character's name. That way, you can differentiate between characters used on different boards with the same name.

Character Creation Rules
RULES:
- Character Limit: One Autobot and One Decepticon are the limit. You don’t have to have both, but you can’t have two from one faction.
- Characters from other boards: I will put this simply. NO.
- Don’t use any canon characters, like Starscream or Optimus Prime. You are not allowed to play any characters from the show. You could however use toy character that were never used in the show as a basis. Granted you stay true to the character.
Below is a character sheet, formatted for wiki, with explanations for what everything is. You can just cut and paste and edit in the actual info and it should show nicely formatted once you save the wiki page.
Please consult the Skills List on the skills section.
==Basic Info== *Created by: Your board user name, or wiki user name, however we can identify you *Name: Your character's name. This should also be the title of the wiki page. *Aliases: Optional. Any nicknames he’s earned. *Faction: Autobot or Decepticon *Subgroup: Optional. Any organization past or present he was associated with. *Type: Superlink (Minicon Enabled), Galaxyforce (Cyber Key Enabled), Minicon. *Alternate Mode: What the charater transforms into, limited to Earth and cybertronian vehicles. *Size: 4'-7' = x-small; 8'-14' = small; 15'-20' medium; 21' -26' = large; 27’+ = x-large *Gender: Male or Female, probably. *Primary Function: The purpose he was brought online to fulfill, e.g. Melee Combat, Heavy Assault, Medic, Scientist, Engineer, Sniper, etc. *Secondary Function: Optional. Another thing he does exceptionally well. It should generally relate to or complement the Primary Function somehow, unless it’s a talent, like Singer or Painter. *Rank: Will be assigned by mods. *Theme Song: Optional. The music would play in the background of this character. *Quote: Optional. A thing he’s known for saying, or that defines his personality. ==Statistics== The Basics. 1-10 maximum distributed over 8 stats. Up to 53 points total for player characters 5-7 are average scores. *Strength: Muscle *Stamina: Armour *Speed: Top Speed, Reflexes *Skill: Agility, Hand-Eye Coordination *Firepower: Number of Weapons, Total Combined Power *Aim: Aim, Sensory Perception *Intelligence: Brainpower *Discipline: Self-control, Training You’re given a lot of free rein on interpreting exactly what scores mean- don’t abuse it. Ask around if you’re really unsure. ===Skills=== *Skill 1 *Skill 2 Consult Agent Rasp’s [[Skills List]]. Choose a few- around seven is usually appropriate- that your character is especially good at. No jacks of all trades, please. Try to give your character a focus based on her Functions. Characters who have really disparate skills may be asked to drop one or the other. Special note to snipers here: Snipers and people who want Sniper Rifles require Aim 10 and Firepower 10. They take only five skills, two of which must be Stealth and Sniping. You are allowed, at most, a small pistol and/or a melee weapon in addition to the Sniper Rifle. No more. ==PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION== ===Alternate Mode=== What he looks like in vehihcle form. Try to be as descriptive as possible. More is better. Four sentences at least will suffice. ===Transformation=== Very optional. Difficult to write. Most don’t. But it’s the process by which the character converts from alternate from to Robot, all the mechanical motion that happens between. ===Robot Mode=== Again, be as descriptive as possible. Describe build, shape, size, facial features, coloration, weapon holsters, other accessories, as much as you can. This should be a good-sized paragraph or two, or three and definitely more than four sentences. Sometimes quirks like peculiar gestures are included. A description of the character’s voice sometimes helps, though that can also fit under personality. ==PERSONALITY== This should be the longest part of your character’s bio. His quirks and nuances, likes and dislikes, pet peeves and hobbies, whatever, it goes in here. Be creative and be descriptive. ==ELEMENTAL KEY FUNCTION== More than just a weapon. This is your character's most powerful attack/ability. Be as descriptive as possible. It can only be activated if your character has had access to a planet key. Remember to base it on the element you are using. Earth, wind, fire and water are the elementals we will be using *Base Element: The element your character's function will be based on. You must choose this before you are eligible to gain a key function. *Elemental Power: Describe what the weapon does. How it acts and reacts. Remember, this is elemental, so it will have what appears to be a magical quality to it. ==WEAPONS & SPECIAL ABILITIES== *'''(insert weapon name)''' - (insert weapon description) *'''(insert weapon name)''' - (insert weapon description) And repeat as necessary. Weapons should be described both physically in terms of size and shape, some decorations maybe, as well as by their range, the area of effect, penetration, the kind of damage they do: like fire, plasma, laser, shrapnel, plain cutting, etc. Weapons that can disable another character in one shot i.e. “One-Shot Kills” are not allowed, with the exception of sniper rifles. ==Equipment== Optional. Pretty much the same thing, for anything he carries around that isn’t a weapon. Be it a jet pack or a Bic lighter, say what it is, what it looks like, and what it’s for. ==Traits== Optional. Anything about your character that makes him unusual. Usually not combat-related. If you can stick to walls or pick up AM radio with your teeth, it goes here. ==HISTORY== Basically your character's life story up until this point. The more detailed, the better, but for this board it needs not necessarily be a thirty page epic. Most Transformers are veterans of the Great War that has ravaged Cybertron. There was a cease fire that lasted for several decades, but the finding of the Minicons brought that to a halt. Some ground rules: -Try for two good-sized paragraphs. One with seven sentences at least. -Don’t use any canon characters, like Starscream or Optimus Primal. They cause problems. ==Commanders’ Notes== His references. ==Known Acquaintances== People he knows. ==Noted Quotes== Any mottos, creeds, catch phrases, one-liners, war cries, pick-up lines... These last three are all optional and self-explanatory. Formats vary, so find one you like or make your own.
