Hi, question!
I'm sure this must be written somewhere, but are you allowed to make slight changes to your backstory? The contents will stay the same, but perhaps different writing/wordings as you get better at writing? Are you also allowed to update it, say I become a second year, am I allowed to add first year 'backstory' to it?
Also: what's the deal with the profile card? Does your profile text need to be the same as the backstory, first instance of magic, etc. in your ency, or are you allowed to change it to anything once you're indexed?

So first, about your bio- that is only looked at when you first create your character, prior to your sorting. If you look at mine, I only have links and images in it now, feel free to decorate it as you want
You are absolutely free to change wording in your ency, you don't need to re-apply for that, as long as the content remains the same.
And sure, you can write a summary of the RP you had in your first year if you want, if that is what you mean.

Tried that but still don't get it. Which link should I copy, for me it just becomes a question mark.
