Character Creation Guide Template

This is the template for the creation of a CCG. CCGs are for the purpose of helping players create their character along logical guidelines and heritages to keep the universe consistent. CCGs should be created under the /ccg/ namespace

======SPECIES/CULTURENAME Creation Guide======
====Introduction====
Give a brief overview of playing in the species/culture

====Essential Elements====
Like the abilities list on the species template, this gives a rundown of key points every player must consider.

=====Names=====
Include sample names, name architecture (I.E. “first, last”, “First, childofFather/mother”, etc) and common vowel/consonant combinations/sounds

=====Common Upbringings=====
Use this to show common upbringings in the species/culture. Try to list at least three paths - but remember, these are supposed to be common, but not the ONLY options. 

===== Appearance =====
Condense species page appearance down for this section, with colourations and occurrence. Be sure to note obvious signifiers and fashions and other such commonalities.

===== Common/racial Skills/Talents =====
This should be something influenced by societal education. Magic and psionic talents (Including specific disciplines) are in this category. Natural racial abilities should be listed here as well.

=====  Historical Factors  =====
Shows examples of how to take a common upbringing and personalize it, including major historical events, otherwise give you basic ways to flesh out the background. Where were they when X was attacked? When a natural disaster hit? etc.

===== Additional Reading =====
This is where you link anything that would be helpful for potential players to take a look at.
