Lets see, well, for starters I'd like a longer bio and personality if you can. Preferably a paragraph or two for each. Also, could you go into more detail on the staff? Like what kind of trinkets?
That and you have 5 more stat points to use at your will.
And, I'm just clarifying this, but you have Fire Ball in two slots so you have that stacked for the extra 20% boost right? [I list it a bit differently, so no problem, just double checking]

I will try and work on it but I'm not to great with this. Yeah that's what I was going for with the fire ball.

Well if Lock's okay with it I'll help you fluff it up a bit and hammer out some details.

I did edit it but that was the best I could come up with.

Ha, that's fine. That's why we see if Lock will let me help you. All I'd be doing is something like, 'She grew up like this. The reason she wants to defeat Chaos. How she found her staff. Why she chose to follow Elafane(though that's pretty much the same reason she wants to defeat Chaos).' Little details like that really help fluff up things like history.

Personality wise. 'Why is she shy? Is it something in her past? Why is she afraid to be hurt? Are these events linked somehow? Does she only want to be more outgoing so she can not be hated or does she want something else? Is her only goal to not be hated or does she have another much larger life goal in mind?' If you can answer those that should help too. I know it's a lot to think about when you're just starting but the sooner you're introduced to this sort of thing the better off you'll be in the long run and I'm sure you'll notice the difference in quality.

Dont worry Sputnik ^^ We all have to start somewhere. Personally your bio seems like it should be good. Then again I generally go for the shortest path to a finished bio XD

In any case if your new then do what I did, look at other peoples skeletons (all of which are on this post and go from there ^^
Do the same for your regular posts to find a good style you like.

As you RP you will become more and more adept, and ultimately better. If someone points out something listen to them, you dont have to change your style but generally these little nitpicks will help you in the long run (though sometimes they really dont XD)

Ha, don't worry. You don't have to answer all of those. Answer about half of them for both the History and Personality and you should find that your character will have a bit more depth. Then again I'm use to this so coming up with things like that is easier for me. Anyways, I'm a little tired so my advice is kind of blunt.

-points up- Listen to the wise words written above, they contain much knowledge. -strokes sagely beard slowly-

Honestly though, its not hard, just let your mind kinda go with it. Vanity's check list, even halve filled out, if, will vastly improve the depth. And as Krave said, we all start some were. I don't expect shining pure brilliance, just a spark of it with a hint of a good imagination. The more put in now, the more you can put in and get out later. Sounds odd, I know. But its true.

That said, your accepted and I'll add you to the list of characters tomorrow. Feel free to post and jump into the RP. Although, I would still like you to fluff up, as Vanity put it, your bio and personality a bit. Think of it a inventive exorcise, and don't be worried about going over bored. Also, take a look at this, OCZ Slayer's Guide, it was a collabe project between me, and a few others that you'll probably get to know in time on the site. It'll help give you a few pointers on character creation. Browse through it when you have the time or just feel curious, just might give ya a bit of insight.

All in all though, nice to have join us.
