Basic Character Page

This page is pretty bare-bones. It's similar to what's on the UPDS, and just gives you a basic character page to start with.

To see what this basic page includes look below under Example
To use this template, put the tag below into your character page and save the page. Then click the "edit" link to fill in the results.
- {{subst:Biosimple}}

This is a good simple character page for starting characters to use. Eventually some of you will wish to create more complex, in-depth character pages. When you do just replace the old page with the new format. There is no need to create a new page.

See the Wiki/Chars. Tutorial page to learn how to make a page. This Tutorial will also teach you how to make more advanced character pages.

Examples

In the following example which is the basic character page from the template above, all you need to do is fill in the data following each heading. That and change the name of the character and probably the name of the ship he/she is serving on as well.

Ensign Joe Bloggs, a Terran, is currently the chief science officer aboard the USS Independence.

-Eric grew up close to Dublin and had a pretty quite and "ordinary" childhood. Due to the fact that he grew up with mainly human children he was confronted from the beginning with his "being different". It doesn't mean that this experience traumatized him in any way, but it was the main reason for him to be very early interested in psychology. To be mentally further than same age children was also one reason for him to have friends, who were older.
-From age 12 to 16 he visited the "Dublin School of Mathematics".
+Ensign '''Joe Bloggs''', a Terran, is currently the chief science officer aboard the [[USS Independence]].
-His "inner" conflict  due to the age, lead to a conflict with his mother T'Laina Winters, a biochemical scientist, when he had to explain to her, that his interest was not mathematics, but music. Eric had very early a passion for classical guitar. It was finally his father's support which gave him the opportunity to study this instrument at "The Royal Irish Academy of Music" graduating from there at the age of 21. Unfortunately this incident lead to his parent's divorce. T'Laina began to literally dive into her biochemical studies, distancing herself from her son and his father.
+===Stats===
-The following 2 years were very important for Eric, because he spent an intensive time with his father, Brandon Winters, a Psychologist. It were this conversations, which refreshed his interest in psychology.

-When Eric's mother decided to leave Earth and return back to Vulcan Eric grabbed this opportunity and went with her, so he could study "Surak's teachings" on Vulcan. He also used my time there to extended his studies of mind melting as well. Being on Vulcan had a very elemental meaning for his personality and to let him learn more about his forebearers.
+===Appearance===
-When he learned that his grand grandfather,  Sakkhet  was a crew member of the T'Plana-Hath, the vessel, which made the first contact with Earth on April 5th 2063, Eric began to consider that his fate may lay in the exploration of the Universe as well as its emotional and psychological state. Joining Starfleet came the first time to his mind.

-After discovering this things about his family ties, which T'Laina could not withhold on Vulcan, but did for certain reasons his whole life on Earth, Eric returned to Earth to figure out, if his way with Starfleet was just an idea or more than that. He settled down in San Francisco to make his Doctor's degree on the "Federal California Institute for Integral Studies" before signing in Starfleet.
