Do you think our characters should have detailed backgrounds and such? Personally, I think it would add to the uniquity of characters, and aid in the creation of fanfiction (if we end up with a solid community of fans).

For example, we could have a page just for profiles. Each character would have a small section of the page, with an icon of the character and their profile (of course). The form could be something along the lines of this:

Name:
Age:
Species:
Occupation:
Personality:
History:

What are your thoughts on this?

I'll create one!

Name: Jeanette Kittikiyana "Jean" Phatpig
Age: 9 in Cat Years, 41 in Human Years
Species: Black Cat
Occupation: Aeon Ship 10-B Navigator
Personality: Tough, cold-hearted, strict, and never nice
History: Jean's parents were a mental couple who met each other at an asylum. Unfortunately Jean has some of her parents' genes, and turned out to be mental and rude.

CAT INSULTER
Let me fix up on your mistakes.

Name: Jenny "Jean" Catatrosphe
Age: 12 Cat Years, 44 Human Years
Species: Ginger and Brown Domestic Tabby with extra black head fur
Occupation: Aeon Ship (Navigator? Medic? Mechanic?)
Personality: Quiet, Daydreamy, Clumsy, Devoid of anger (including frustration)
Notes: Has arachnophobia
Parents: Mother alcoholic, father diagnosed with severe diabetes

Much better.

oh no!

I don't think it'll be much use in-game to have detailed ideas of certain character's personalities. I'd prefer it if players could get to know the characters strictly from playing with them and from their appearances and animations and stuff.
