This article is intended to give new players a template to work their character information into. This can help by providing some fields to fill in an otherwise daunting blank page. I've built this almost entirely by looking at the fields other people have included. You may cut and paste the below section into your edit window, just below the HeroBox or VillainBox template info.
He's a crazy pyromaniac German cyborg. WHAT ELSE DO I NEED TO SAY?! You know him and you love him.

Powers
Put something about the character's powers here. This heading may contain all that is known about this character's powers or it may simply be an overview of abilities and brief synopsis of how they were obtained. If the latter, you may include some sub-headings.
Primary Set
Your character's primary set. Rename the headings as appropriate.
Secondary Set
Rename and describe.
Additional Powers
These can be anything that is part of the character.
Travel
Seems a popular one. How does the character travel?
Travel 2
Does the character have multiple modes of travel?
Power Pool
Is there a particular pool that helps define the character, as a whole?
Power Pool 2
More than one?
Abilities
The character is more than just the powers he uses. What everyday tasks is he capable of? Black belt in a particular martial art? Suave and charming? Cardshark? These are abilities that often aren't reflected in the character's actual in-game powers, but are quite important regardless. Alternately, these abilities may have paved the way to this character using his powers.
Weaknesses and Limitations
I've only seen this heading once (granted, I didn't go through all the pages), but it can serve to provide depth to certain characters. If the weaknesses and limitations are pretty standard - ie, robots vulnerable to electricity, mutants vulnerable to a dozen bullets - then it probably doesn't need to be here. But robots vulnerable to psychic attacks (like the Clockwork) and regular humans masquerading as metas can probably put something to the like in this heading. Or it could be omitted entirely.
Equipment
Does the character have any signature equipment?
Character History
Just like it sounds.
Trivia
I haven't seen this category a lot, but it's a great catch-all.
The Template
Copy and paste the below template into your new UHVU character page. Alter, discard or add to the headings as best fits your character and your writing desires. This template is by no means all-inclusive, nor is it intended to be. Part of the fun of this site is going around and looking at other people's work. Use this as just a template, then go around and gather ideas from other pages. That random page link along the left is great.
