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.
