-Once you have an approved concept talked over with the STs, use the templates provided on the [[character templates]] page to create a template.+Once you have an approved concept talked over with the STs, use whatever format you and your ST can both use and are comfortable with.  PDF, google drive doc, txt file.
  
-This template is **NOT** your character sheet.  It is a raw text file that the STs will use to create your sheet on the wiki.  If you also wish to submit a standard PDF along side the sheet that is fine.+Your sheet will eventually be put on this wiki, using the wiki to track changes and xp.  And will appear something like [[PC:Altair|This]]\\
  
 The Wiki stores your actual sheet, and you will have access and permissions needed to present the sheet in a way you like.  We use a Wiki because it tracks changes to pages, and thus to sheets.  This allows us to prevent cheating. The Wiki stores your actual sheet, and you will have access and permissions needed to present the sheet in a way you like.  We use a Wiki because it tracks changes to pages, and thus to sheets.  This allows us to prevent cheating.

 +Once you have been acceptedyour sheet will be linked into the character repository and your front and xp log pages created for it.  At that point, you will be given edit privileges to these pages, but other players will only be able to see the 'front' page.  This page has only the most basic information about your characterwhile your sheet and xp log can only be seen by you, and the STs/Admins.

 +[[Merits]]\\ 
 + 
 +You can take as many merits as you can afford, but: We have a soft limit on 7 points of merits. Any Merits taken beyond that will require a particularly stellar character sheet with substantial justification. STs reserve the right to limit merits for any reason, including and especially preserving game balance.

 +[[Flaws]]\\ 
 + 
 +You cannot gain more than 7 Freebie Points from flaws. You can take more flaws than that if you want for the sake of flavor/difficulty, but you cannot gain more than 7 Freebie Points.
