Description
body div#devskin0 hr { }
Huge character profile of completeness
This character profile template was made by compiling a whole lot of templates made by other artists that I felt were not specific enough and adding many more questions to make everything more specific. The links are in the description, please visit their versions too. This profile is ginormous, not every question may be relevant to your character. The main goal is to have a profile that is as complete as it can get, so not every question will need to be filled in. Add and remove as is needed as there's only few characters every question is relevant for. If you think questions should be added, comment and suggest! There also exists a html file on pastebin for mobile users which can be found here .

I have two OC's coming up and this looks amazing! It might be a tad bit long, but hey it gives you info about the character so you dont have to wait to know something about them. I will also not have to worry about looking through 80 different story's to find their background! Thanks so much for taking the time to do this. Even if it was so very long ago.

Razr39325 [2018-05-29 03:19:12 +0000 UTC]
Would it be possible to transfer the entire sheet into a txt file? I say this because most word document applications on mobile are slow so I use a txt file editor to do my writing since they are so much faster. I am a HS student and got a lot of studying to do and would like to fill parts of this character sheet out every now and then using my phone. (Highlighting the entire sheet in Deviantart and copying it somewhere causes a formatting error of an absurd amount of 'spaces' which will take too long to reformat. As the holder of the original file, perhaps you could transfer this character sheet faster and easier than I could. If not then just tell me and I will take the long way about this.)

Alright, I went to check and the reason hobbies is in there twice is because it's in the Past and Present sections. One is for the hobbies they had in their past and when they grew up, the second for their current active hobbies ;v;

That point can be interpreted as you wish! Answers such as "Tall bear", "Ectomorph", and "Small chubby mesomorph" are all examples of things you can fill in there. Personally I tend to go for a good descriptor based on both weight, fat/muscle distribution, and height, but somatotypes are absolutely a possibility as well! <:
