Should the need ever arise I am going to compile the entire Character Creation process into one easy(yet lengthy) thread. At the end of this I will provide a nice little blank character sheet to keep make things easier. Also, in retrospect, I will be slightly altering a few things to make the process run a tad smoother as well as leaving examples throughout from our little friend Bill The Warrior.

Explanation of The Basics:
1-Member Name: This one is pretty simple.
2-Character Name: If you already have a character in Forum Battle then please simply list it here and place [EC] after it to signify Existing Character. If not then think up a name and place [NC] after it to signify New Character. Example: Bill The Warrior[NC]
3-Gender: This one is pretty simple. Please choose either Male or Female. Let's keep it simple.
4-Date of Birth: I have not provided a timeline in this one and the other stories take place in a fantasy world. Let's just make this simple. I am looking for a month, day, and year. You can make it up or you can use your actual information. I simply want the numbers to translate into something else anyways.
5-Physical Description:Simply fill in the blanks below this section with the appropriate details. It is possible for a caster's eyes to glow a certain color when they are working their mojo and it is also possible that certain odd colors could occur through certain events, but if you pick something weird like Red or Orange then you had better be prepaired to explain why I should permit this color. Glowing, on fire, or anything else of this nature is not a correct distinction for eye color in my world.
6-Class: There are only two options to choose from in this one. You are either a Melee(someone who fights with weapons) or a caster(someone who practices magic). As the game progresses it will be possible for people to earn skills and such that allow them to change their class, but these are the two starting classes, so pick one.
7-Race: You'll notice I filled this one in for you. For the time being, players will start out as humans. If you wish to be an elf (example) then you are a human...you just set your description to reflect that you're skinny and have unusual ears. Because we're all humans it's also pretty much a rule of thumb that we're not glowing from head to toe all the time, covered in flame, and that we only have 4 limbs(2 arms and 2 legs) unless Merits or Flaws adjust this. When in doubt, either keep it simple or PM me with your questions.

I'll finish this later. I have Awards work to do and then I have to be heading out the door. :D
