Nice character!

\(^_^)/ Approval

[Kyosuke]

I'll approve of this character, but I wanna point some other things. When someone can't do anything, most of the time it isn't a weakness, with some exceptions. If one can't talk or use gestures/sign language, that is indeed a social weakness. Very few people would consider the inability to immediately heal a wound a weakness. The ability to heal a wound immediatly is considered a strength, but opposites don't necessarily apply to everything. The only real weakness I can see up there is her short temper. Just be a bit more creative or careful in making weaknesses up in future characters.

[Amenat]

Ok. I understand what your saying, but I was having a hard time trying to come up with weaknesses. I meant the inablility to take care of wounds recieved, I never said heal immediatly. She can speak, but with a very wierd accent. For a cat, the inability to climb a tree can make the difference between life and death. Please try to see my point.

[Kyosuke]

I'll give you the tree climbing one, and I'm guessing that by taking care of wounds received, she doesn't know first aid, and by doesn't know first aid, I'm guessing she doesn't even know that she should bandage herself in situations where she's hurt. I understand what you mean about finding it hard to think of weaknesses, I have the same problem. You can always PM an admin for advice if you want or start up some thread about it.

You can also use generic job class weaknesses, such a weakness to distance attacks such as arrows or magic for melee characters. I'll think of them now and make a post about it at some point to point out some weaknesses they can use if they can't think of anything.

One piece of advice I can give you about it is to give your character some sort of interesting character flaw that can be a weakness. An example can be in my character Leydon Godwind, who is extremely lazy. Or my other character Tetsumaru Sonaka, who is becoming slower and senile in his old age. Just try being creative in the future, it makes Role Playing more interesting ^^

I cannot edit my character, but she likes to nap at lot, mostly in the daytime though... Thanks for the q+a forum, but we (The non admins) cannot edit characters here if we wanted. I think so anyway. I only noticed that I had a lot of errors in my character AFTER I had asked soran to edit it for me >.>

[Emora Deen]

You are supposed to be able to edit any message that you the poster make... please look up in the right corner of your post at the list of things you are able to do. Is edit one of them?

[Amenat]

Yes, but when I click on it, it only shows a little brown box with the word information over it, the box says nothing in it, or under it. I can edit every other post I make.

[Kyosuke]

Yeah, I think we've been getting a lotta those, something's messed up with the forum. A lotta users seem to have trouble editting the first post in a thread, which makes it really troublesome in this board.
