Guide to Creating a Good Advanced Bio!

Hallo there! Has there ever been a time when you've had a great idea for a cat, but you couldn't figure out how to make a good biography? Ever get tired of trying, and just skip everything? Well, here's a guide to help that writer's block!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

NAME GAME: Be creative, have imagination... but please don't name them Starstar, pawpelt, Greenpelt. No cat has a green pelt. When coming up with a name for your cat imagine something you can relate them to. Are they bouncy and happy, like a rabbit? Are they feirce and strong, like a badger? Are they sly and sneaky, like a fox? There are so many easy ways to create your cats name! Does your kit/cat have an imagination? What about Painted? There are even other names you can use to describe your cats personality. Ever use synonyms? Sometimes going to Thesarus.com  may help you. Now... lets move on.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

AGE TIME: Now this is rather simple right? Depends on what rank your cat is. Are they kits? 0 moons to 6 moons. Apprentices? 6 moons to 12 moons. Warriors? 12 moons... ______ moons. Cats can die, they can become handicapped and forced to retire or they simply can stay warriors until retirement. Elders are mostly older cats but some kits, such as blind ones, may become elders. Young apprentices who become handicapped or warriors may even end up becoming elders at young ages. In the end? Its up to you, the player.

9) Is your cat small? Large? Slim? Average?

PERSONALITY MANIPULATION: You ever been in a bind to describe your cats personality? Want the easy way out?

1) Is your cat easily annoyed? Upset? Angered?
2) Is your cat caring and kind or could they care less?
3) Does your cat love to fight? Kill? Or would they rather have peace?
4) Is your cat loyal? Devoted? Or would they betray the warrior code to their own desire?
5) Is your cat shy? Or do they want the world to hear what they have to say?
6) Is your cat crazy? Do they see things? Hear things that aren't really there?
7) Is your cat a clean freak or could they care less about that?

HISTORY IS HISTORY: You ever found history to be the hardest part of a bio to ever make? I'm here to help you out!
1) Where was your cat born at? DuskClan? A Tribe? Loner? Rogue?
2) What was it like the night they were born? Was it raining? Snowing? Mid-summer?
3) What about their parents? Who were they? How did they meet? Was it a secret? A betrayel?
4) How many siblings did they have?

*Cough* You copied this almost word for word from another site o.o *Cough, won't give the link or name since it's not allowed.*
Just making sure you know that could be considered plagiarism and such o.o

Yeah, if you did copy this from another site, it's okay to include the link--in fact, I'm asking you to--so you aren't stealing.

This is the topic/site it's from.

O.O I am such a loser. I meant to put work in progress in the title so I could find the link to the website. I had it copied in a word document. I sincerely apologize for this-- this isn't my work, and I didn't mean to make it seem like it. So sorry.

It's fine, just be more careful. Also, you might want to PM wip topics to yourself until they're ready, just so you can proofread them and stuff. You don't have to though. :3

Again, I'm terribly sorry and I hope this won't taint any future judgement you might have regarding myself.

Nah, it's perfectly okay. :3 Everyone makes mistakes, I know I have.
