I have to ways of typing bios: When my wolf is in pack and when it isn't.
When it is, then I put information like gender, age, powers (if any), personality and stuff like that.
When it isn't, then I just mess around and make something more like Rp sample.

My bios are pretty basic.

With the name, gender, offspring, species, kin, ect.

Although, lately I've gotten into more story driven ones, and have even gone so far as to have the character themself narrate their own bio.

Or, it's just a random recording of things that have happened.

I keep it short, enough information for people to understand my character.

- Name
- Age
- Gender
- Breed
- Sexuality

That's it. Sometimes, if I develop a character enough, I'll put their personality/and or backstory into it.

Whoops, so I did a little mistake.

Anyway, when it comes to creating and describing my character- in an instant, I would come to writer's block. Usually I like using other people's work to help me on the words choice and grammer, but other than, I just like to use picture. Generally, I like the basics first since its more faster and easier. But it comes to Bio/History, Personality, and other deep stuff I might leave it for later.

For me, it depends where the bio is being written and which character it is.

Because of that annoying word limit, my in-game bios are usually just really messy, profile style things that leave out most of the actually important stuff.. Or I don't bother trying to write anything there at all x'D

When I have an unlimited amount of space to type (The forum, for instance), motivation, and time, I go completely overboard with EVERYTHING. This is something I only just started doing recently (AKA 3 days ago), but it will typically contain...

- Basic info such as name, age, breed, etc

- Relationship stats

- About 657456 (Okay, so maybe that's an exaggeration) paragraphs explaining his/her personality + Random rambling

- The theme song, also explaining how it relates to the character

- Information about any powers the character has, if any

- Quotes

- etc

However, the bio may range in size, depending on the character. For instance, Boogie is my fursona, so his is somewhat shorter because I don't roleplay with him. And Saischa, Summit, and Scragues' (Well, not the one of him I posted here. That was a huge WIP) bios are huge because I write about the three of them and they're all extremely complex when it comes to their powers and stats.

Ummm... Depends really but most of the time I just put the name, gender, species, personality, relationship, group they are in, and a small description of the appearance. o:

I find myself writing out biographies that are soo MASSIVELY huge there is simply no way I can summarize a characters story. I refuse to - since you miss MASSIVE amounts of information of the characters backstory.

Now, I simply but a link to my characters HEAVY read information.
And basic status updates, such as...
Name
Age
Breed of animal
Physical condition
Mental condition
Common locations where character can be found


Sums it all in a nutshell.
Discipline, Loyalty, Courage, Strength, Honor, NEVER SURRENDER!

I remember I tried to fancy one of my character's Bio with things like: "Clock ticks to 5 months" etc,but then after I removed the character I decided to go for something more simple like how I've done before:

Name; Gender; Species; Age; Looks; *Mother; Father; Siblings; Likes; Dislikes; Abilities;* Personality; Backstory; *Crush.*

The '*' symbols are stating that the sections inside them are optional for me,depending on the character/space to write/pure laziness.

And that's it. It's pretty basic,I know,but I figured prettying up like other users was filling too much space for the Bio limit in-game and actually kind of unnecessary. Just my opinion,though.
I may add/remove categories depending on which character I use,but what's above is what I would normally use. Also,I usually only write Bios for characters of mine when they're on a RP/RP group. I'm not very good with Bios,really.

I suppose it depends on the character. If it is a character I'm proud of or attached to I tend to write a very detailed narrative describing their life. If it's a character I made out of boredom or a fleeting fancy, Im decidedly lazy about the bio, typing out a string of basic information and perhaps a vague backstory. And of course random attacks of writer's block factor in occasionally. ::)
It's been three freakin' years and I have no idea what I'm doing.
