First: You create a character.
Copy the Character Template (look for a sticky called "Template" in the Character Submission thread you are interested in) and paste that into a post...that's where you start. Who is this character? How old are they? What are they? What makes them special, unique, etc.?
Look through the submissions and see what was accepted and what tanked. Try writing a little bit about the character, that is the biggest complaint about submissions - Lack of detail. Even better, write a story about the character, that really works well.
Second: Request membership in the Usergroup for that game. Click on Usergroups. Choose the game and press the "View Information" button. There is a "Join" button. The admin of the group wiill either approve or deny your request based on your character.
Third: Don't get discouraged. Sometimes it takes a couple of tries to get the right combination for the game. Keep writing and don't stop until you either get it right or are inspired to do something else (maybe start your own game).
