Please copy the code in the box below and paste it in a new thread. The thread title must contain your characters first name and surname, like this: Harry Potter. You may then put [WIP] if your profile isn’t finished, [Help] if you’ve run into problems and need some help or [Complete] if your character is ready for the staff to check over. =)
Here on Hex we have a rather epically long profile form, but this is because we need to have a good view of your character in order to sort them into the correct house. Also remember that other members will be referring to your profile when playing with you, so you want it to be a good read right? =)
Hex is an intermediate to advanced Roleplaying site so we ask for basic spelling, grammar and punctutation. There is a spell checker on the forum for those of you (like me) that have problems with spelling. ^^;; If you have any problems or questions please PM this account, we would be glad to help you.
Introducing...
Name:
Your character name here. First name, middle name if they have them, then last name. Also if your character is known by a nickname, or maybe called a special name by close friends for example Joe instead of Joseph please also state that here. If your character has an unusual or foreign name it might also be a nice idea to put a pronunciation guide.
Age:
The date and month that your character was born, followed by their age. Your may also put your character’s star sign if you wish. =)

Male, female?
Occupation:
This refers to what job your character does, if they are a student at Hogwarts put what year they are in.
Birthplace:
Where was your character born.
Ethnicity:
Asian/Caucasian/Afro-Caribbean/Something Else?

Sometimes a character may be a citizen of a country other than their place of birth. Please state their nationality here, for example English, Scottish, Welsh, Irish…
Blood:
Post their bloodstatus here. Pure Blood, Half Blood or Muggle Born
Relatives:
List your characters relatives here. If any of them go to Hogwarts, say which year and [if known] house. If your character is a pure blood or related to canon characters it would be a nice idea to explain this here and perhaps include the names of their grandparents.
Mother’s Name
Father’s Name
Siblings
Pets:
Name and described their pet here. This should be a solid paragraph, we want to know about the personality of your characters pet as it will likely feature in threads. Is it loyal to its owner? Does it have a particular favourite food? Is it affectionate or moody? Some people also like to include a picture of the pet here.
Wand Type:
Wood type, core, and best attributes, meaning it’s strengths and weakenesses. There are lots of quizzes online that you can take, for example this one. If you’re more comfortable just making up your wand without a quiz please feel free to do so.
Appearance
Picture:
Post a picture here (please no bigger than 400x600 pixels). Please keep in mind that the model you use for your character must be human, no anime or CGI characters will be accepted. It can be hard to find a suitable face claim so try browsing around Hollow Art and Model Mayhem Both can be searched by appearance. Remember the staff will be happy to modify the hair and eyecolour of your model (if possible) so that it fits your character more closely.
Hair Colour:
Post their hair colour here.
Eye Colour:

Describe their skin tone here.

Post height here.

How do they dress in every day life? At least a paragraph please, tell us about their favourite colour to wear, what would they never think of wearing, a persons clothes say a lot about them!
Specifics:
What will people notice when they look at your character? Again were looking for at least a paragraph. What is their about your character that stands out? What sets them apart from the crowd?

In Front Of Friends
Sexual Orientation:
Heterosexual, homosexual, bi-sexual, other?
Self Image:
How does your character think about him/herself? Do they like who they are? Do they wish they could be different somehow? At least a paragraph as this is an important glimpse into your character’s mind.
To the Outward Eye:
How other people perceive your character? Remember you can’t actually decide how other peoples characters will react to yours. This is more about the first impressions your character might give, will they come off as moody or standoffish when meeting someone for the first time? Or would they project a confident air to the world. At least a paragraph here also.
Social Status:
Popular/out cast? A paragraph describing your characters social status please. Are they the type to have a lot of friends, or maybe just one of two close friends. Would they be friendly to everyone they meet or are they picky about who they chose to associate with?
Positive Traits:
