FIXME: In progress.

While these tips apply to almost any role-playing game, I'm going to use the D&D ability scores as examples. Ideas for Character Backgroundsplugin-autotooltip__default plugin-autotooltip_bigIdeas for Character Backgrounds
This was taken from . Take a look at that site. There's a lot of good stuff, including a couple of campaigns in prose form.
The following are a series of questions to try to help prompt players when they are writing character backgrounds. None of these questions represent required info, I just find such a list helpful to anyone writing a character's history.

Question
From Zioth, on 08-12-03
For the past seven years, I've been DMing a PBeM. The remainder of my RPG experience has been with a free-form game I made up, where the characters don't come with built-in personalities (so you're basically role-playing yourself).

I've always thought that the religious aspects of Alignment are often overlooked, particuarly when it comes to paladins. I have always thought that a Paladin's moral code should be more strongly based on his religion than it is commonly assumed.

From: J. Hawke Date: Wed, 29 Dec 1999 00:20:11 GMT
In my campaign, it is assumed that apprentices can cast a few minor cantrips after spending many years in study and apprenticeship. These are short-lived cantrips with no lasting effect and they can't do anything to anyone that really impacts them in an even minorly lasting manner. Things like creating a quick

Moose Factsplugin-autotooltip__default plugin-autotooltip_bigMoose Facts
* Did you know that “Moose Watching” is illegal in twelve cities and towns throughout the USA, because of fatal injuries caused by it? * Did you know that Bullwinkle Moose was the real name of a Pennsylvania farmer? The show was inspired by Mr. Moose, who was a friend of the producer's sister. Rocky Squirrel, however, was a completely original name. Moose Pageplugin-autotooltip__default plugin-autotooltip_bigMoose Page
Looking at this Moose page, you may ask, “what is this infatuation you have with moose?”
