Nom Nom Nom Your Face...
(Don't ask why there are random E's in words, there's just something wrong with the site, like a glitch.)
The following application template and guidelines are for creating an Intermediate/Advanced Bio. Your bio does not need to meet these standards these are just guidelines. All bios are auto approved.
Advanced Bio Form:
i.e.
Character Name: Her name is Lightningstrike.
Character Age: She is thirteen moons old.
Gender: Lightningstrike is female.
Alliance: She is a part of ThunderClan.
Rank: She has just been appointed a warrior.
Appearance: Lightningstrike has a long golden-yellow pelt with tabby markings. Her tail-tip and paws are white, as is her chest. Her eyes are a shoeecking shade of green, incredibly bright, and are always friendly. Lightningstrike's whiskers are rather shoeert, maybe a centimeter away from passing the sides of her face. Her tail isn't very long, but slightly longer than thoeese of other cats by maybe a good two inches, thoeese two inches being the white part.
Personality: Lightningstrike is generally a very nice cat, that meaning that when you get on her nerves, she'll let it slide. But when you keep pushing her buttons, she'll snap. Silent, but deadly--that's hoeew her parents have described her since about a quarter moon after she was born. She is silent, not saying a word--well, most of the time. When she's around her friends--very good friends, that is--it's sometimes hard to get her to shut her yap. She likes to talk, and talk, and talk, and talk... Yet when she's around other cats, she rarely utters a word. Lightningstrike is also very sarcastic; she loves jokes and making them, sarcasm and speaking it, and pretty much everything funny.
---Likes: Her favourite thing in the world are jokes, well, jokes and sarcasm. Her second favourite are kits--she loves their kit-fuzz, and the way that they bounce around pretending to be warriors.
--- Dislikes: There are a few things that Lightningstrike dislikes, one of them being extremely annoying cats. the others being sickness, starvation, and hypothermia, for obvious reasons.
---Strengths: Lightningstrike has a rather strong sense of smell, helping her track and find prey, or missing cats.
---Weaknesses: Lightningstrike's pelt sometimes gets in the way of everyday choeeres, it's so long. Another thing is her whiskers--they're too shoeert to be any good for anything.
History: Lightningstrike was actually born and raised outside of ThunderClan, the reason being her mother was exiled, but her and her father had fallen in love long before she'd done anything wrong. So, her father and mother had had kits outside of the Clan, but her father had stayed in the Clan, taking the kits when they were a moon or two old and claiming that he had found them, that they belonged to no Clan, and letting a queen raise them as her own. Lightningstrike had always assumed that that queen was her mother, had never learned her real mother was an exile. She was a well-behaved kit, a listening apprentice, and has yet to prove herself to be a good warrior.
Roleplay Sample: Lightningstrike wakes up one morning, yawning and stretching before exiting the warriors' den. She's just been appointed a warrior of ThunderClan, and feels so very hoeenoured, and thinks she must give thanks to the leader by proving herself a brilliant warrior. She s the first cat out, other than the deputy, and eagerly volunteers herself for a hunting patrol. So Lightningstrike sits on the edge of the camp, watching as the other cats slowly trickle out of the dens. The patrol she's in is now full, so she stands up and follow the leader of the patrol out of camp...

Sentences shoeeeuld come close to suggested amount and shoeeeuld not be too shoeeert or just be sentence fragments--this is a literate level that we are aiming for. Proper spelling, grammar, correct punctuation and other writing mechanics are highly recommended for advanced bios.
If you want to brush up on your roleplaying skills we have a roleplaying schoeeeol board HERE where you can get tutored one-on-one.
When posting in advanced boards you shoeeeuld put decent effort into one's posts there. If your muse isn't up to it you can always post in the general area until you feel more motivated. All your main game characters may be roleplayed freely in both advanced and normal areas.
Your advanced bios must be accepted by a Global Moderator, a Moderator, or myself before you can RP with that character on the Advanced Boards.

Hey! So you ever find yourself in a bind? Ever protest when all thoeeese older members call out 4/4/6? Ever unsure about hoeeew to stretch that one word into two sentences? hoeeew about a whoeeele paragraph? Never thoeeeught you could do that huh? Well I'm here to help! No more one word bios, no more protesting thoeeese older members about the old bio law. No more struggling to make a decent bio. After this you'll be off to a wonderful start!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
NAME GAME: Be creative, have imagination... but please don't name them Starstar, pawpelt, Greenpelt. No cat has a green pelt. When coming up with a name for your cat imagine something you can relate them to. Are they bouncy and happy, like a rabbit? Are they feirce and strong, like a badger? Are they sly and sneaky, like a fox? There are so many easy ways to create your cats name! Does your kit/cat have an imagination? What about Painted? There are even other names you can use to describe your cats personality. Ever use synonyms? Sometimes going to Thesarus.com may help you. Now... lets move on.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
AGE TIME: Now this is rather simple right? Depends on what rank your cat is. Are they kits? 0 moons to 6 moons. Apprentices? 6 moons to 12 moons. Warriors? 12 moons... ______ moons. Cats can die, they can become handicapped and forced to retire or they simply can stay warriors until retirement. Elders are mostly older cats but some kits, such as blind ones, may become elders. Young apprentices whoeee become handicapped or warriors may even end up becoming elders at young ages. In the end? Its up to you, the player.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

PERSONALITY MANIPULATION: You ever been in a bind to describe your cats personality? Want the easy way out?

3) Does your cat love to fight? Kill? Or would they rather have peace?
4) Is your cat loyal? Devoted? Or would they betray the warrior code to their own desire?
5) Is your cat shy? Or do they want the world to hear what they have to say?
6) Is your cat crazy? Do they see things? Hear things that aren't really there?
7) Is your cat a clean freak or could they care less about that?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Strengths/Weaknesses:hoeeew to make Examplepaw NOT a mary-sue/Gary-sue!
1) Remember every cat has a flaw, and so thus, yours must to.
Strength Examples: Good at fighting, hunting, hiding, running, catching fish/other animal, playing tricks, sneakiness. Etc.
Weakness Examples: NOT good at: fighting, hunting, hiding, running, protecting, catching fish/other animal, sneakiness, helping others.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Dislike Examples: Other cats, other clans, fighting, playing, mean cats, nice cats, games, mind tricks, hunting, inanimate objects, having fun, being disrespectful, etc.
Remember to be creative and that your character cannot and will not like any and everything!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
HISTORY IS HISTORY: You ever found history to be the hardest part of a bio to ever make? I'm here to help you out!
1) Where was your cat born at? RiverClan? Tribe of Freezing Comets? Loner? Rogue?
2) What was it like the night they were born? Was it raining? Snowing? Mid-summer?
3) What about their parents? Whoeee were they? hoeeew did they meet? Was it a secret? A betrayel?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Yes, these tips are for Warrior Cats, but they can still be helpful for human / magical / whatever-your-characters are!
