New Character (Format)?

I'm having trouble putting together my character. My character looks order the more he uses his power and looks like his nomal age the less he uses his power. When he looks older his eye coler is diffrent his hair is diffrent, and a lot of other things are diffrent. My problem is that when I write down the eye and hair color how do I write down both colors without telling them about that one magic ability. Skills/Magic come way after Eyes and Hair.

Either say his hair and eye color vary, or don't mention it at all. That's really the best way to go about something like that, to be honest.

Thanks

So, did you want to keep the magic ability of his secret while explaining how is hair and eye color vary? That's what I'm gathering here. If that's the case, I'd go with LeafyG, and say don't bother mentioning it at all.

Also, did you want help on making this Character to bring over the Escapist's Haven? You're looking for help to make a roleplaying character?

Okay, I get it now. Durr.

Say something witty. Something that you wouldn't expect to read when reading the description of a person. People often write their characters the basic way. Example being:

Name: Bob Seget

Age: 45

Physical Appearance: Brown short hair, blue eyes, etc, etc, blah, blah

If you're stuck on trying to describe in a normal, generic way, then you're best off going with what LeafyG said. But if you do want to mention it without letting them know abou the magic ability, you could maybe do something like this:

Name: Bob Seget

Age: Pretty close to a middle aged crisis.

Physical Appearance: He's your average middle aged man. Stock built. Carries himself like a rich man that owns many fancy cars. Got some rough, oil stained aged skin, you know.. the whole middle aged man combo. However, as for actual physical attributes? Well, that depends on the day.

Maybe I over explained myself there, but hopefully you get my point.

Please don't revive old threads.
