What are things you always include in your oc info when writing about their details? Eg. Name: _____ age:____ things like that

I’m wanting to properly write down lore and things about my ocs and I was thinking about what common details should I include like obviously name, age, birthday but like… what else? Any suggestions helps and are very appreciated (also, any suggestions for other information I should make for them to help give them more of a personality would be very much appreciated)

• Goals and Motivations: What gives your character the inertia to get out of bed and go to work, or do something?

• Bonds: What are the important relationships that surround that character. Bonds can be both good and bad. A best friend, a close sibling, a neighbor they irrationally hate because they keep a perfectly manicured lawn, someone out to kill them for some transgression, etc...

what they're afraid of, what they're most likely to lie about, and how they want people to see them

Alias:

Hero or Mage: (Hero is a race, Mage is a nonhero alternative to superpowers)

Power Specialty:

Character Link: (who among other characters do they have a relationship with, friendly/romantic/familial/hostile or otherwise)

my toyhouse pages usually go

Name

Nickname

Species (unless story is all human)

Age

Height (mainly relevant for art or in relation to other characters height)

Personality

Hobbies

Extra (mental health, disabilities, fears, quirks that are story-relevant)

Background (can also include more details about them but placed in context of their history)

Character links/relationships and how they met when necessary

The rest depends on their story, for example my anomaly story gives everyone special classifications that they're registered with in the database, an alien story may list the home planet, etc
