Character Sheet System - Revived

Upon returning, I've noticed that we have some definite problems with OP characters.  This is an issue that has been noticed by the mods AND other players and we've received multiple complaints from both sides. 

So, I'm officially reviving the Character Sheet System.

Please be aware that this is not to stifle your roleplay but make it more engaging and helping you really think through how your character is built by generating good strengths AND weaknesses. 

This sheet should be filled out by ALL active players. 

THIS INCLUDES ADMINS.  There is no need for an admin to have an OP character.  Strengths IC have absolutely nothing to do with how well you can moderate players on the server.

Please don't force yourself to rush through it. I'm not going to ban you if you take a week or so, but do ensure the information you include is thorough. 

Also, I decided to make a new thread to start this process from scratch, so character sheets that were approved in the old thread will need to be resubmitted if you are using the same character.

Character Details

Including these details is optional.  I'm simply keeping them in because it helps give us a better understanding of how you view your character as a whole. 

Please be aware that alignment now refers to your character's outlook on life and not their elemental alignment.  Alignments are:


Unsure of what your character's alignment is?  Try taking this test.  It should put you on the right path. --> http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/dnd/20001222b

Proficiencies/Restrictions

Try not to include ALL items in your list of proficiencies.  No character is good at using EVERYTHING and I am sure that no player USES every item they come across.   A good way to ensure you are balanced is to try not to have more proficiencies than restrictions.

If there is an item that you use all the time, on every character you make, simply because you love it, feel free to try to work that into your list of proficiencies.  If there is an item you never use because you aren't interested or simply hate it, feel free to place that into your restrictions.  You don't have to explain all of your restrictions, but you DO have to explain your proficiencies.

Your explanation can be as detailed as naming the sword you carry and describing how you obtained it, or as simple as saying that your character is speed-based, so has an aglet equipped.

Also, if there is an item in your restrictions that you decide later on that you would like to use, you CAN pursue training IC in order to be able to use that item.

If you are of a specific class, such as a knight, you really don't have to explain in detail why you carry a sword.  That is generally assumed.  But, please make sure you DO list it in your list of proficiencies just to be safe.

Also, you can list equipment that your character can use but may not actually have in your list of proficiencies in order to cover yourself just in case you do get that piece of equipment later in the future.  This, mostly, is useful with hardmode items you might obtain through events or from the server shop.

Literacy

Literacy has been revamped after a bit of chatting with other admins.

Basic literacy covers things like signs and regular books your character might encounter IC.  If you answer no, your character would not be capable of reading things like warning signs, trespassing signs, regular books found or given IC, etc.

Magic literacy determines whether your character can read magic books to cast spells.  If you answer no, you will not be able to use Terraria spellbooks.

Please be aware that you cannot say yes to magic literacy and no to basic literacy.

Class

As a player and the creator of your own character, you should be able to list your own class.  But, do explain WHAT this class entails if it is not something basic like a mage, knight, assassin, etc.

Basic Items

Basic can be used by ANYONE, and include:

       
  • Weapons, Tools, Bows, and Armor up to Gold
  • Wooden Boomerangs
  • Spears and Tridents
  • Blowpipes + Seeds
  • Arrows - Wooden and Fire
  • Grappling Hooks
  • Buckets
  • Purification Powder
  • Mining Helmets
  • Breathing Reeds
  • Diving Helmets
  • All Watches
  • Depth Meters
  • Magic Mirrors
  • Shackles
Accessories/Vanity

Vanity items can be used by all with no need for explanations.

Accessories do need to be listed in either proficiencies or restrictions and do require explanations as to why your character has them equipped unless they are listed in the basic items list above.

Potions

Any potion can be used by any player at any time they wish.

However, not all potions are allowed to be crafted by any player.  The following potions can only be crafted by a Mage or Chemist.  Otherwise, you must either find one underground, buy one from another player, or obtain them from your major/minor faction leader.

And yes, you MAY list specific potions in your proficiencies list if they are something your character would have gone out of their way to learn to craft.  However, I don't want to see this entire list copied and pasted into your character sheet.  Mages and Chemists do not have to list potions as it is assumed you already know how to craft them (unless you want to say that you don't).

       
  • Invisibility Potion
  • Gravitation Potion
  • Obsidian Skin Potion
  • Spelunker Potion
  • Shine Potion
  • Thorns Potion
  • Featherfall Potion
  • Ironskin Potion
  • Water Walking Potion
  • Archery Potion
  • Battle Potion
  • Hunter Potion
Special Equipment

Specific items may need to be indicated as whether they are used or not and if they ARE used will need a detailed explanation as to why they have them.
Currently, as they are the most prevalent hardmode item that people seem to be using in abundance, wings are the first item to go in this list.  Others may be added after a bit more discussion.

Character Sheet

Name: Nathan Jones

Gender: Male
Race: Human
Alignment: Good
Class: PALADIN/KNIGHT

Basic: No
Demonic: No

Proficiencies
Weapons: Swords, Spears, Projectile weaponry
Armor: Cobalt Armour. (The rare material was scavenged for a long time until there was enough to smith the material into armour and some weapons at Nathans bases blacksmith.
Items: Rocket boots.

Armor: Demon Armour Jungle armour.
Items: Magic boosting items, Wings

Special Equipment
Moon Charm (Werewolf) Nathan was moving through a forest when a werewolf got the jump on him from a tree and bit him on the arm. Ever since that day on a full moon he has transformed into a werewolf.


Backstory: Nathan has been a warrior all his life settling things with weapons than with words. He has fought many a beast but has lost friends in battle. He went on to lead two factions Valor, a modernised military using projectile based weaponry made to destroy all Demons. Valor was destroyed after a massive offensive was made into the Demon homeland. Nearly all of Valor was destroyed in a great battle, their bodies still lie there today decaying. Nathan and some of his men around 17 managed to escape when they knew all was lost.
Nathan went on to then lead the Steel Dragons a warrior guild to try and protect people. He mainly protected the main town from goblin attacks and such. All of the men from valor joined him and they defended the town for a time but slowly there numbers decreased with casualties until all were dead. Nathan recruited a few people locally but they went on to do different things and leave him. As Nathan no longer had any men he ceased the faction and went on to doing things solo.
    Due to the fact that Nathan has been in many battles and fights he has scars littered around his body, such as one diagnol from his shoulder down to his stomach and a scar going down from his forehead to his cheek. All though Nathan is quite young he looks older due to the torments he has been through. The battle in the Demon homeland still haunts him today as he has never forgiven himself for the deaths of so many.
