Not really, I just want some basics of who the characters is and what
he/she is like, nothing more. It doesn't even have to be written down.
Unless the player wants to write a big essay, of course...
BTW, I don't like the 20 questions from the rulebook... In my experience,
players give much too short answers to them ("Where was the character
born?" "In Downtown Seattle."), and I'm guilty of this too. Starting from
scratch with a new document in the word processor works much better for
me.
