Please read the Phelan Patrick Ward NPC thread for an example of a completed character sheet. All canon Macross characters (ie those who are shown in the anime or the manga) are considered NPCs.
If ever you want to play an canon 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.
