Player Character Beginner Template

This is a code page so you can copy and paste into your own character page. If you need help making a character page you can look at the Character Creation Guide or ask one of our staff. To quickly make your character page you can copy and paste the coded link below into your browser, beware that the new page won't be linked to any other page if you make it without also linking it in the Player Characters page. If you're extra sneaky, you can even copy a link from the characters page and use that to make your own before starting this page.
