Character Forms
Animal Form
Human Form
[/size]Animal Form
[b]Name:[/b]
[b]Gender:[/b]
[b]Type:[/b] Animal
[b]Species:[/b] (What species is your animal character? Please, nothing SMALLER than a squirrel! In a world where bigger animals tend to dominate, and given the size of humans, well.. it just doesn't make tooo much sense, if you think about it. How is a mouse supposed to control a human? Thanks, guys ^^)
[b]Age:[/b] (Basically, you put in the age of human maturity. While a dog is two in human years, its technically 14, right? Well, what you would do it put 14 as the age. It helps people get an idea of how old the animals mind is. If you said your animal was two then they might think it a baby and stuff. So, yes. Animals age [i]sorta[/i] like in human terms. )
[b]Position:[/b] (Basically where the character stands on the whole Human issue. See below for different positions and their definitions)
[b]Lifestyle:[/b] (All characters have one, whether is be a farmer, thief, news reporter, police officer, shop owner, wanderer, whatever. Can be anything. If you have an idea, feel free to ask, or just put it here and we'll evaluate it quickly.)
[b]Residence:[/b] (Where their home is, or is going to be. Go below for a link to the house info.*)
[b]Description:[/b] (What is their body type? What color fur or hair? Markings or scars? Put what your animal looks like here. Atleast 75 words, please.)
[b]Personality:[/b] (You shouldn't have to be told what this is. 80 words, though exceptions [i]might[/i] be applied if the RP example is substantial.)
[b]Wardrobe:[/b] (Not required, though most wear something.)
[b]History:[/b] (Even if it's just a sentence or two about a happy childhood, add it.)
[b]Family: [/b] (It's up to you entirely)
[b]Mate:[/b] (Same as "Family")
[b]Children:[/b] (Same as "Mate")

[b]Lifestyle:[/b] (All characters have one, whether is be a farmer, thief, news reporter, police officer, shop owner, wanderer, scout, whatever. Can be anything. If you have an idea, feel free to ask, or just put it here and we'll evaluate it quickly. Humans also have a lifestyle, too, so don't forget!)
[b]Residence:[/b] (Where their home is, technically wherever their Captor lives.)

[b]Family: [/b] (It's up to you entirely)
[b]Married:[/b] (Typically humans don't get married, seeing as they can't actually live together like.. you know? Human Rebellion members can though.)
[b]Children:[/b] (This is optional, though, since humans are bred, there is often a child of theirs running around.)
[b]Category:[/b] (This is where you put what the human does for his/her owner or what they do in the Rebellion, and whatnot. Examples include: fighter, maid, scout, whatever.)

Character Positions:
These are a pretty accurate list on what your character's position can be. If you have a suggestion for a new position, feel free to let one of the admins know.
[li]Captors-
Captors are animals that own more than 3 humans, and use them for profit, either financial or reputation-wise. Typically, Captors care nothing, or very little, for their humans welfare in the long run. Of course, the cruelty and treatment varies with the personality of the Captor, so let your imagination run wild. Captors do not sympathize with the Rebellion, period.
[/li][li]Owners-
Owners are animals that own anywhere from 1-3 Humans. If they have four, they are counted as Captors. These animals tend to be less severe in their treatment, and the humans under them usually have better care and more privileges. This isn't always true, though. Owners can use the Humans for profits, just like Captors, so it's not uncommon to see them at shows and whatnot. Owners can sympathize with the Rebellion's position, but rarely do they express it.
[/li][li]Neutral-
These animals don't usually have humans, though the exception of one really close human is
sometimes seen. In social circles, the Neutral animals aren't looked upon with full respect, so they tend to keep their position hush-hush. The personalities of this Position varies widely. If you want your character to sympathize with the Rebellion, but not actually be in it, this is the position for you.
[/li][li]Rebellion-
Ah.. the Rebellion. These animals either live with the Rebellion at the Post, or they are out in normal society, faking their position. If other animals were to find out about an animal having a position WITH the Rebellion, they are often arrested and treated harshly. It's not often then leave the Rebellion Post, but it happens. Just be aware, if your animal isn't around town very often, people MIGHT become suspicious. Just be careful.
Humans
[/li][li]Enslaved-
This is usually the position Humans are created with. As the name suggests, these humans are under the tyrannical power of a Captor. How the Captor acts is really just luck. Mostly all of the Enslaved humans have been put to hard labor. Though there are exceptions, this is the general idea.
[/li][li]Owned-
Owned humans tend to have lesser duties, cleaning houses whatever. Some Owners have small farms and whatnot, so there is hard labor sometimes, but generally, Owners a little bit more lenient on their humans.
[/li][li]Rebellion-
At the post, the Humans are viewed as equals to the animals, so there is very little discrimination. Sometimes there might be leftovers on both sides, but it's not common. At the Rebellion Post, Humans have various duties among the animals, scouting, cooking, whatever you can think up.
[/li][li]Side-Traveler/ Companion-
A side traveler can also be called a companion. The neutrals often have these types of humans. These humans are often closer and are quite educated, when it comes to reading and writing.
[/li][li]Freed/Runaway-
This is technically the type that are neither owned or in the Rebellion, thanks to the new group in the making! These people are unsatisfied with the way the Rebellion AND the government is handling things.

Another Note:
While you may want to modify this form to make it fancier, we ask that you not modify it, but to keep it the same. If you would like to make it fancy and all that, please create a Character Log[/u] to do so. It isn't hard, and you can modify it just any way you please, just remember to have at least this information on it. Add anything you like, including moods! It's totally up to you.

These could also be listed as jobs, and we've provided a list of what every character on the site is. You can find ideas there or come up with ones on your own and just ask for confirmation. You can find the list here.
Animals
Can't think of an animal to use as your character? We have a list of all the current animals that are allowed right here, but we are always open for new kinds! Also, this might be handy in looking for an animal.
