[quote=@Leolycan] [@Vash] I thank you for your consideration, but I am reluctant. It's not the fact that my character is criticized, it's the fact that he seems almost mocked. If specific ways of which he seems 'bland' or blatantly overpowered, where given- that's one thing- but I'm not given specifics, just generalization. 'Your character is a Mary Sue, Your character is overpowered, Your writting is bad, etc.' That's how it's coming across. If you told me my character is bland because: He lacks personality, his backstory seems copy and pasted, his skillset seems weak- that all I'm receptive to. Yeah, I may be a little adverse to criticism- and I won't go into why- but I do my best to adjust if given the cause for the criticism. So if someone can point out what I need to work on, I'll gladly thank them for their effort and take it into consideration. But as such, you already stated that this is a limited slot RP, and I don't want to take up the slot of someone who has a better flushed out character that fits the setting better. [/quote] Yeah, that's the problem, we have 8 now, caits will most likely make 9, Tyrant would make ten, but we have not heard from him since he posted two days ago. No new recruits have shown interest thus far and, if you and Tyrant end up both posting CSs, I'll probably bend if they're both good. Here's what you need to work on in your bio: You need to flesh it out way more. By that I mean explain what's going on. What made him viable to join spec ops? Why not join an engineering division of special operations instead? Those do exist. How did he make his armor? Why did they not simply slap a prosthetic leg onto him and get him back to work? Special operations would definitely have the money. Why would he join the pirates? Why not have him leave or discharged for some reason due to being disgruntled or unhappy? There is a lot to work with. Think outside of the box with it. He could have been discharged for "fixing" the general's car and making him crash it for no reason. Another thing: He came across as being proficient at engineering, stealth, and combat. We figured that since he was in special operations, he would have been trained specially for self defense and not be useless up front. If he was in an engineering division, I could understand your point assessment.
