Within this sub-forum is where you can create threads about the bare specifics of your character's powers, abilities, origins of their technique, etc. You could even give us just a story of your character's origins, not just their powers (example, a fully narrated backstory) Feel free to go into as much detail as you see fit, as this could also act as a biography for your character and their origins. Think of this as a personal OOC library for others to read either for their enjoyment or learn more about your character without them requiring you to explain it themselves (and make RPing with them more comfortable).
However, please follow the set rules while creating/reading these detailed threads:
-Being a library/archive type of forum, please do not reply in the topic if you just want to give feedback or want to leave a comment. Some people (like myself) would like to have their topic organized and wouldn't want to have too much information in a single post, and may post again with more information later, or simply have an update notification. Simply put, ONLY the topic creator can post in their thread. The reader must respect this and if they have comments or anything of the sort, just talk it out elsewhere, like PMs, catching them in the shoutbox, etc. Same goes for the staff. Even we can't post in these threads. If anything seems wrong to the staff, they'll PM you about it.
-Be sure your character's approved first. Remember, this is an extension to what information you've provided on your character's powers/skills in your character application. If you post a detailed thread for a character that's not even officially approved by a staff member, you need to wait.
-Do NOT use this information IC (In character) if you're a reader. This is an OOC (Out of character) database. As such, you can not have your own character take said information about another PC and use it as a way of your character exposing their weaknesses in PvP (or hell, even mentioning they know about it). Unless the topic creator explicitly states the information on their character is public IC, just don't do it. Otherwise, you'll suffer some In-game punishment (Gold deductions and temporary Hyper Mode locks for an example).
-Provide a link to your character's profile at the beginning of the thread. This is merely out of courtesy for those who want to view the character application of the character on topic. Be nice, all right?
