Concerning character profiles, perhaps we could add another section onto the suggested character profile layout?

Namely--Speech Patterns.

How does a character talk? Do they have a high voice? What kind of vocabulary do they use? Do they have any accents? ETC...

I don't think this could be required, but I'd imagine it'd help the writers among us *coughmecough* who like to go all out on description. Not to mention that since we all have to do a bit of god-modding, technically, to make this thing flow at a decent pace, I think these pieces of information would help myself and others to write other's characters more effectively.

I've already edited in a Speech section for Donik.
A lot of people do say whether their character has an accent or how they talk, it's just not labled as "Speech: He talks with a cockney blah blah blah". I think it may make things a bit too difficult to say we all need to do it, hence your "I don't think this could be required" but it is in a lot of profiles, for those whom wish to put it in there. :3

Re: The Out of Character Thread: OBAMALLAMAPAJAMA~!

It's definitely something to consider. I'd recommend putting it in the template with an asterisk next to it and making a footnote at the bottom that it isn't required, merely a good idea.

Yes yes, I know--hold 'dem horses.

As I post, I"m working on Calculus and a smattering of Spanish.

Don't worry, I'll probably be able to post sometime in the middle of this week.
