I know mine is lacking in the abilities part with a simple description of what he can access.
If I have to change mine, then fine, I'll just toss in the specifics section. Its pretty rag tag and they're mostly support abilities for bonus physical beatdowns anyways.

I have a feeling these profiles are going to look huge when actually having all the specific descriptions.

Yeah... if you have twenty weapons, each of them are magical with a paragraph or two worth of description. Hell, five wapons with two paragraph descriptions is already a lot of space wasted.

If they are then they should be thrown out for the person obviously having more abilities then they sanely should.

Yeah. I sent Sierra's back without even looking at it because I'm not interested in an entire life's story, appearance, as well as equipment and abilities that wouldnt be brought into the tournament at all.
It was so huge, it was split into multiple PMs.

But what about people like Ryugi who are moderate but have a lot of different abilities?
I mean. Some people may have one over-econompassing power that allows them a lot of smaller abilities.
There's also the enchanted and magic weapon stuff that Kraun is talking about.
It doesn't have to be more than a person is allowed, in order for descriptions to add up to pages 'pon pages.

Look, we aren't looking for the complete history of the weapon, ability. Nor do we want a few words of description. A short paragraph would even work and then that's not always needed either.
The key is to summarise while still retaining all needed information. This is a skill that is very useful in writing.

This is a sword. It is made of steel. The blade is thirty five inches long. It is normal and has no magical abilities. It hasnt been sharpened in a while, so it might be a little dull. Sharpening before the tournament pending.

Whatever gets sent back for shortening I'll change.
I just don't have the time right now because I have to go earn MONEY.
