Well after much laziness i have decided today would be the day i dust off this idea i had in my head for weeks now (Maybe more,) so here it comes.
I know we have a wiki for a characters histories, And a solo stories board that one could use (i think) but even if one put there history in a profile on the wiki that still doesn't tell what happened in that moment, what said character was feeling when blank person dies, Or when whatever happen its not the same reading it in the past tense and the present sense, i can't think of a huge post to tell of all the different reasons why this is a great idea.
I think the histories of our characters deserve there own board and that's it....for now.

yeah i was thinking i should fix this I'll just clarify
Well a characters history is explained basically in there bio when there first approved, But that doesn't tell how said things in a characters bio happened in that moment.
e.g.
Bio:Before becoming a republic soldier Derk wandered the dark underbelly of Coruscant in search of his little brother, and though he never found him he always did and still to this day believes he is alive.
so that would be the bio what i see as pretty much a summery of his life before he begins in the actual RP, But what if someone ever wondered what happened in Derk's search for his brother and why he gave up but still believed he was alive, well if there was an origin board Derk's creator can post exactly how all that happened.
e.g.
Topic: Derk's beginning.
Derk ran down the dark ally way in search of Crayck, And after what could have been hours he returned to his house with only a small key Crayck always kept on him...maybe it was a sign for good things, But it could always be a sign of the opposed, No Derk wouldn't think like that he would stay positive and believe this was a sign that his brother was alright.
And i could go on with that but it pretty much Role playing your characters history to explain how things happened, and its time for one more example, But not as flashy, Character A has a long time rivalry with Character B, In there last fight Character A get his/her arm cut off from the elbow, In the origin board one could tell how the fight played out and what kind of attack took the arm.
And i hope that makes things clearer.

Somewhat, it sounds like a Character Journal to me. Which could be made in the solo stories board if need be. I'm not too sure, we'll see if anyone else likes this idea. Journals sometimes go underused on sites. XD

I know for the WWII site I go to, we can buy journals, and if you write well, detailed thoughts for a good amount of time, you'll get something in return (in that sites case, money) |

well, i know for a fact that almost 90% of whats in Jor's history on the Wiki has been played out at one point or another here on BHOD. I think he was 19 when i first started playing with him. At that time his bio was like a paragraph and a half long saying he was a corelian Jedi and Jedi Liaison to CoreSec.

I don't really think it will get approved, since you can just WIKI it on our BATRIODWIKI site if you really wanted to. This topic is waiting for Cain yes.
