Explain how your character is: his values and ideals, quirks and mannerisms, likes and dislikes, hobbies and skills, probably phobias and insanities (everyone has at least of from the two). At least two paragraphs worth of informations/
Background Story:
You character's lifestory/current history. Please make up a story for your character, with as much detail as you want - interesting details may be integrated into the game for your PC to interact or experience with in-game. Requirements are a story with at least three (3) paragraphs long and within the basic story of the Cosmic Era of Gundam SEED and GSD.
As you create your PC's story, always take into consideration that the setting for Gundam SEED Renaissance takes place in the year CE 84, TEN YEARS AFTER the events at the end of Gundam SEED Destiny, whence a lot of things have happened and the main characters of the Gundam SEED story are no longer in their teens, but already young adults in the their late twenties. With this time skip, the mantle of being the new heroes of the game will now fall on the new player characters. Please read the
Synopsis: Gundam SEED Renaissance RPG to get a feel for the RPG's scenarios.
Write about your PC experiences in their youth, their loved ones, interesting episodes from their past, and all other seemingly little things that could affect his present and add spice for his time in the game.
A fantastic story about a superheroic, sword wielding, motorcycle riding, badass lone wolf, champion of justice WILL NOT BE ALLOWED. Be a bit more realisitic people - you will be portraying real folks thrust into a war in the Cosmic Era as mobile suit pilots, soldiers, or civilians.
Also, do not include stories where the PC has SEED or Newtype abilities. For game balance, GMs will ASSIGN these special abilities to PC who have shown themselves worthy through excellent character design and performance in the field or in the Training Academies. Please PM me for more details.

Please read the
Kira Yamato NPC Thread for an example of a character biography. All canon Gundam SEED characters (ie those who are shown in the anime or the manga) are considered NPCs.
If ever you want to play an NPC, the answer is NO, unless you are a GM. NPCs are powerful characters better left to GMs to roleplay, as to not unbalance the game. Consult a GM for more details.
