Hi, i'm pretty new to DDO, but one of the first things I noticed when I had started playing was this little window called the BIO window! Amazing, you can write anything in there... But most players seem to have it blank. However i've had the pleasure of reading some innocent bystanders BIOs in the Harbor and it got me thinking about writing one for myself.
Having know back knowledge of RP, or story writing, I was wondering; how does one go about writing a BIO? What are the things that I should contemplate including in this short paragraph about my character?
Should it be written in the sense that it is coming literally from the character?; "My parents were killed by wolves, for 10 years I was living in the undergrowth jungle of blablablabla (You get the point)"
Or should it be written coming from me?; "My characters name is Boxsmasher McDrunkface because he likes to drink beer and smash boxes, har har har"
Give me some little pointers in which direction to go with this, I think it's a really nice, personal touch to add to your character and i've been pondering over it all day.
Thanks
