There are several different terms in the Land of Fantasy. I will try to explain them as best as I can, and if you think I missed one then please mention it!

Name: The name of the thing you are looking at.

Age: The age of the thing you are looking at. Note: This mostly applies to characters and NPC's only.

Disposition: The Disposition rating system was created with this in mind: We don't want an evil character accidentally joining a good town, or vice versa do we? The Ratings go something like this. . .

Holy - Places that have no possible taint or evil. Some forms of Demons and Undead are burned by Holy places.

Good - Places that have proven time and time again to have a rather good intent either by the people living there, or by the environment itself. Evil can exist here, but it is generally limited to Bandits and the like.

Neutral - Places that are right between Good or Evil; they have no real alignment and anything can happen in these places alignment-wise.

Evil - Places that have proven time and time again to have a rather evil intent either by the people living there, or by the environment itself. Good can exist here, but it is generally limited to Farmers and Militia and the like.

Demonic - Places that have no possible good or holy intent. Many forms of life are tainted and corrupted by Demonic places.

Understand now? I hope so. >.<

Nature: The general nature of a Kingdom and it's inhabitants. Are they Peaceful, or Warlike? Are they Economic in any way, or do they not really care about money? Are they Religious, Open Religion, Banned Religion?

Military Strength: Do they have a strong, vibrant military force, or is it small and weak? Also, how does the Military structure work?

Leadership: What kind of Leadership does your Kingdom have? A Democracy? (One man voted into power) A Republic? (Ruling Body voted in by the people) A Monarchy? (A Royal Family; King, Queen, Prince, Princess) A Deposition? (One man rules with an iron fist) etc etc.

Territory Size: How many Territories (Places) a Kingdom, Clan, Guild, or otherwise currently hold underneath their jurisdiction.

Description: To describe a thing so that one can try to imagine what it may or may not look like. As a rule of thumb, the longer a description is the better.

Place of Residence: Where does your character live? This is Optional in case he doesn't live anywhere and is a nomad/adventurer. Can also be used with NPC's, MUST be used with Unique NPC's to determine their whereabouts.

Appearance: What does a Character look like clothing-wise? Do they carry any special or unusual trinkets or weapons? What does your character look like in general? Hair, Height, Weight, Eye Color, etc etc.

History: The History of a Kingdom, Place, Item, Character, Creature, NPC, etc etc. This is usually required and is not optional for NPC's, Kingdoms, or Characters.

Magical Ability: Any Magical Ability? If so, how strong? This is meant for Characters, but can be used with NPC's as well.

Combat Prowess: Any Combat techniques? If so, how strong? This is meant for Characters, but can be used with NPC's as well.

Military/Guild Rank(s): Is your character a part of any Military or Guild? If so, what Rank is he/she? (Assuming there are ranks.) Optional. This also applies to things like Clans and Bandit Groups and whatever else has a command hierarchy. This may be used with NPC's if desired.

Allegiance: Where does your Character's loyalty lie?.. This can be used for NPC's.

Immediate Family: Usually used for Characters only, although NPC's could use this. This indicates if the Character has any immediate family members. (Father, Mother, Son, Daughter, Husband, Wife, Brother, Sister. Those classify as Immediate Family.)

Other: For anything that doesn't fit in the above categories. Optional.

Moved to the Archives. Reason: There may be absolutely no point in keeping this.
