While new players are learning HOW to write for ASR, they will also need to spend time creating, editing and polishing their character's biographical file, or '''biofile'''.  The good, playable biofile- one that is balanced (not a superbeing), has the right amount or lack of experience, and has the proper personality and background detail- is absolutely critical here in ASR: not only does it confirm your commitment to writing in ASR, it also gives your shipmates something to work from, helping them to write more accurately for your character.  Ins hort, if one wants to avoid having his.her character portrayed "out of character," he/she would be wise to make sure his/her biofile is of good quality.

The Training Officer will all new players on the specifics of biofile creation.  However, if interested, ORIGINS has created a [http://alt-starfleet-rpg.org/origins/text/bio template.txt biofile template] for anyone who wishes to use it.

New players playing a doctor will end up with characters holding the rank of Lieutenant (O-3); this is because of the sehar amount of education one needs to have in order to become a doctor.  Starfleet recognizes this, and awards a higher commission as a result.

Sometimes, players create characters that have numerous advanced degrees; typically, these would be found in either sciences or engineering.  Starfleet, in much the same way as they do with medical personnel, recognises these advanced degrees and would award such officers higher commissions.  However, in practice, no such commissions are granted at a higher grade than Lieutenant (O-3).
