Just because I've seen so many people have a hard time with this, I'll make another little walkthrough for it.
Character Profiles are mandatory [yes, that means you have to make one.] so that other can get an understanding of what you are and how the story will unfold with you around.
How to make them:
Scroll down to Characters and go to Character Creation.
Once you do that, go look at the basics of what one must consist of. [as in Name, Age, Bio, etc.]
Now here is something I need you to know; you should NOT reply to the basic topic, you must create NEW TOPIC! which is a button ontop of the page in the forum.
Once you have everything set up, just go ahead and fill out the character form, adding details if possible and a picture of your person.
After that your all done, just post and wait to be accpeted.
[After acceptence your free to roleplay and anything else.]
Any more questions? PM me and I'll answer them.
Thankyou,
