Biography

Detail the most important events the character is involved in throughout the story, including information from fan books, and how they fit together. Identify the character's initial motivation and how it changes over time. The information should be presented in roughly chronological order as long as this form does not impede the coherency of the text. If an event has a separate page (e.g. match pages), it is enough to link to that page and summarize the most relevant parts for the character's development rather than recounting everything.

Use subheadings at your discretion.

Relationships

List any significant relationships not discussed in the biography section above.

Anime specific events

You would put descriptions of e.g. Sengoku's foray into boxing and his rematch with Momoshiro in this section rather than "history." This should also briefly recap differences in important matches.

Play Style

Paint a coherent picture of the character's play style. Use information from the fan books as well as the manga.
