[@Prisk] I usually look for a picture and write a character based on the image, haha. The cover makes the book, in my case! Did some edits, thanks for pointing those out. I suppose I didn't catch that effect the Aesir had on the Orb attack, but I've fixed it now. And yeah, writing in 3rd person, past tense is perfectly fine.

I'm actually the same way so I completely get it. 

I find a picture that inspires me, and then I tailor my character's background, personality, etc around on the image that I've found. 

So sometimes, the hardest part for me is finding an image that "speaks" to me. LOL

That's why the entire essence of my character changed when I re-did it. A new face meant a whole new story to tell. And I'm much more satisfied with what I landed on this time.
