Hello everybody! Long time no see for those who may still remember me.

I suggest that we allow for a database of descriptions to be browsed while in creation. For both char desc and helpfiles. This could be either hand picked, provided by players and put in simple form of a helpfile (for example help vavardi description 1) or, even better, collected from dead/deleted characters that had reasonable amount of roleplay/recomms logged.
This way as a new, or returning, player you will be able to have some inspiration when making the description. It simply would help a lot to be able to just follow someone elses structure, adjusting it a bit and changing the details of character.

Similarly we could do the same for strings of clothing, with a twist of showing the raw string beside the item. Maybe even some complete sets that person can just pick in creation?

I'll volunteer an example!

Race: Lithmorran
Gender: Male
Age: Teen (13 to 15)
Base Appearance: 4
Intro: a petite, feminine blonde boy

This small, effeminate Lithmorran boy is unimposing both by nature of
his height and by his disposition. Though his slight frame is severely
lacking in muscle, he appears to be healthy enough, a youthful radiance
showing through the blush of his cheeks and the bright blue of his eyes.
He has pale skin and similarly pale hair, a golden chin-length mop which
frames his round face in an apple-like shape. So, too, are his eyelashes,
noticeably blonde and very thick, fluttering with every blink. He seems to
be in his early to mid teen years, though one could easily mistake him to
be even younger.

When he speaks, his voice is quiet and soft, a falsetto so high that it
seems unlikely it will deepen much, even with age.
