NAME: Where the name and all nick-names of your character should be placed here.

Biography: A brief overview of your character should be written out here. All past, present, and future

Age: Child, teen, mid 20's ...

Facial Expressions: Angry, sadden, praised.

Hair: Neat/messy, up/down, long/short.

General Demeanor: How they come across to other people.
