If you use this for character information and post it on DA as some people like to do, please give me credit for it and link back to this deviation.
Though it's an older deviation, it's still as important as when I created it, which is why I'm submitting it to #LITplease for their "NaNoWriMo Resource" nonfiction prompt.
