[b]Name:[/b] (Pretty self-explanatory. If they have a nickname they prefer to go by, that goes here too.)
[b]Age:[/b] (How old is your character? No younger than 10, and no older than 16 if you're a student.)
[b]Date of Birth:[/b] (The month and day on which they were born. We have an ambiguous year for this RP, so leave their birth year out.)
[b]Birthplace:[/b] (Where were they born? If they moved at any point, where did they spend most of their life? Regions utilized here include Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, Sinnoh, Unova, Kalos, and Orre.)
[b]Gender:[/b] (I'll let you figure this one out.)
[b]Sexual Orientation:[/b] (How do they swing?)
[b]Face Claim:[/b] (tell us the name of who you're using for your character's face claim, along with what series they're from. If it's original artwork, then simply put "Original Art". Anime/anime-style characters only, please.)
[b]Appearance:[/b] (If you wish, you may either type out a full description of the character, or you post a picture. Can either be three 100 x 100 icons (preferably matching), or a single larger image. Nothing that stretches the board. )
[b]Distinguishing Features:[/b] (If you chose to simply post a picture for Appearance, then list anything that isn't shown in the picture here. Things like scars or piercings. If there is nothing to add, feel free to skip this.)
[b]Height:[/b] (How tall is your character? In feet and inches, please.)
[b]Character Type:[/b] (Are they a Student, Warden, Teacher, Team Origin member, etc. If they are an Origin Spy pretending to be a student, put Origin Spy along with the dorm your character will be in.)
[b]Personality:[/b] (How do they usually act? Do certain types of people or situations make them act in a different manner? Do they have any deep secrets or insecurities? All of that goes here. A minimum of 100 words is required here, but, otherwise, feel free to make it as long and detailed as you feel the need to. The more detailed it is, the easier it is for someone to understand your character.)
[b]Likes:[/b] (list at least four)
[b]Dislikes:[/b] (also list at least four)
[b]History:[/b] (Where did they grow up? What was their childhood like? What made them want to train Pokemon, and, ultimately, what led them to apply to this particular academy? If your character brought Pokemon to the Academy, you could talk a bit about how they met them. Or, for Origin members, what led them to joining Team Origin. Explain all of this in detail here. Either way, this must be at least 200 words.)
[b]Dorm:[/b] (The dorm you'd like your character to enter. Keep in mind that some dorms may discouraged/encouraged based on total students in each of them. More info can be found in the "dorm availability" section. If your character is not a student or warden you can remove this section.)
[b]Uniform Color:[/b] (Each dorm has a few different color uniforms associated with them. Simply pick one. Refer to the link directly above to see which dorms have which colors. If your character is not a student, you can remove this section.)
[b]Starter Pokemon:[/b] (Students must pick 2 base form Pokemon as their starters. At least one starter must correspond to their dorm. These Pokemon can be whatever gender assuming they have a gender, any ability including hidden ones, and any four moves that it can learn through level up. They can also be shiny if you want. Pokemon can be ones that the character had prior, or obtained from the Academy to start with if they didn't have two. Likewise with Team Origin. For staff, see the staff positions thread for info on how you can build your team.)
[b]Played By:[/b] (what name do you go by on the cbox?)
