I was talking on MSN earlier about how it struck me as odd that I'd never gotten to writing one of these. I suppose I could while I'm on break, but effort. He's not very exciting, when it comes down to it.

Kyber can be very exciting. If you like that sort of thing. He was fascinating to watch (from a distance)

This is pretty much my issue.  When you make a character to be boring and (relatively) stable (concerning the circumstances) his history doesn't tend to lend much excitement.

I probably wouldn't write much more than what I thought would be publically available. If that's not much, then that itself is information you can use to shape the public perception of your character, neh?

People get their public perception of Tib by interacting with him, though.  Thats sort of the way I tend to prefer it.  He was hardly famous as a capsuleer, had no great accomplishments to his name (a few medals from his corp for mining -so damn much-), and a little bit of an anti-slavery-but-not-too-fast-lets-be-realistic point of view that he was not shy of sharing.

Then he went Sansha and all hell broke lose.

But he still comes across as relatively sane.  A little fanatical maybe, but hardly even to the level you see some Minmatar and Amarrian pilots doing.  He maintains the ability to think rationally and calmly, and even attributes part of that to his being Sansha now (emotional interaction chips in the head make this very easy).

So I dunno really where I would start.

Still needs some work I guess.  DO they update the forms every so often, I could have swarn that I didn't have a gender slot open the last time I looked.

Nonsense.  Between your adventures with high-voltage, the Kyber Moros Relief Fund, being the only clone in New Eden who uses a hairpiece rather than growing his own hair, and your rapid switching of sides, not to mention your nights of wild debauchery in Brutor bars, I would say Kyber lived an exciting life.

If multiple people made the attempt, and each was clearly designated as such, I would be fascinated to see what someone else wrote for mine.

I'm sure I'm not alone in feeling that way...

Yeah, this.  Would be cool, if done right.

hmm.. might have to do one for the Mashtori and Math tomorrow - probably in RKN viewpoint as they have the most complete and relatively easy to access files on both.

Yes the gender slot got added recently in the template. It made me giggle when I saw "undisclosed".

Also, your link is broken (lacks the ")" at the end).
