Ok, I am brand new here and have been doing my research of the history and pertinent information necessary to make my first character. I have a few quick questions before I proceed with my official submission.
1) If I create a character whose background has certain details best kept secret yet are important to the understanding of the character, should it still be included in my bio? Essentially is meta-gaming much of a problem on this server as it seems it wouldn't be?
2) Assuming my submission is approved; when I actually go to create the character, is it necessary for me to put anything in the bio field or can I leave it blank? Can that character bio be altered at all later if it is required?
As soon as I get past these last few questions I will go ahead and submit. I am looking forward to diving in here as some of the background material I have seen including player movies look incredible! Hope to see you all soon. :)

1) It is essental to provide the team with as much information as possible. In all my time here, I have never seen information in the biography metagamed. That doesn't mean it won't happen one day, there is just no precedent I know of set yet.
2) No, you can leave it blank. Thou a fair number of people include the physical discription of the character including any interesting marks. From holy symbols to noteable features such as scars or tatoos.

Generally I include physical descriptions if I decide to include anything. Thanks a lot for the quick response! I will begin making my submission now. :-D
