Welcome to Starlight-Anime! If this is your first roleplaying site, then I have to say you've been missing out.
So if you can't figure it out(Don't feel bad I didn't either the first time)then this is what I suggest doing first:
Get familiar with the board, know the plot. If you like the plot, then you'll like the site(Maybe...).
Second:If you like the board and have created an account then your next step is to
create the character your roleplaying! you'll post in either adult, teenager, or kid.(of course depending on what your characters age is.) And if you don't want to create a character then you can transfer a character you have from another site.Although any items and stats will be reset to their base(The stats you had at character birth) for the transfer you just copy and paste your character bio and starting stats in the
transfer section. Here's my template:
Name:
Age:
Hair color:
Eye color:
History:3-5 sentences minimum
personality:2-3 sentences minimum
Appearance:(Pictures would be great!)
regular life skills:(Ex.Good at football, gaming, and roleplayin)
Battle tactics:(If your character doesn't strategize then explain what they like to do in battle)
Likes:
Dislikes:
Additional info would be great too!
after you do that, you'll reply to your character bio(or put it all together) by making a stat/equipment tracker. (Special thanks to phs552.boards.net/ for the tracker and stat discriptions!

Now, for your stats, you start with 50 points to divide amoung the 5 categorie's .
Note that an average human would have stats of 10 in all categories. Lower values in your stats would mean you're below average, while higher values mean you're past the point of a regular person.
Strength (STR) - Determines your character's physical strength. How much they can lift, how hard they can hit, etc. The higher the value of this stat, the more impressive feats your character can pull off in regard to brute force.
Dexterity (DEX) - Determines your character's speed. How fast they can move, how acrobatic your character can be, etc. With a higher dexterity stat, your character can very well be a ninja. Because ninjas are boss.
Constitution (CON) - Determines your character's endurance. How many hits they can take, how long they can run, etc. The higher the value in this stat, the closer your character can be to being a human tank.
Wisdom (WIS) - Determines your character's awareness and combat knowledge. How well versed they are in martial arts, how good they are at determining their opponent's next move, etc. The higher the value in this stat, the more your character can see everything short of seeing the future.
Intelligence (INT) - Determines your character's overall knowledge and how great they are at convincing NPCs to do things for them. Characters with a high intelligence stat will be the best leaders for their respective gangs, and those who do not want to lead can find other uses for this stat in terms of makeshift weaponry and tactics. This affects academics, technology, and will also be used for your Qi to determine its level of power.

One thing i disagree with:He mentioned the word Qi. A qi is an ability you get at his site that you have to write a 2000 word solo story ark on how your character got his or her ability. Here at Starlight Anime, we don't do that. Instead they will simply be known as Skills. Every level up you get one skill point and you can use those to purchase custom skills from the skill shop(that will be added very soon)all will be done in a short and simple manner. Also, for every fight whether you win or lose both participants gain+1 Exp to add to whatever you want.
Third:Start roleplaying! You can go and post in most of the locations but remember that some of the locations require you to be at/beyond a certain level.
and last but not least, have fun!
