Paradise In Perfection
Okay I read this and at the end it did not feel like I had read it because it flows so well D: so then I read it again looking at it in a greater detail. Cutting a long story short I realized that I was actually trying to make up things that did not seem right because to be honest I could not find anything and I thought that would be a stupid thing to put as crit!

Everything flows and works well, even more so you have wrote it in a way that is fun to read! =D I mean it I love her character and think she is awesome and I want to see her made! =D

(She has to meet Bridget if we get them because she is the type of person she would follow and more so she would not understand her humor so that would not offend her, she is a slow slow girl... XD)

I like the name Pollux personally <3 its not too girly, it sounds nice and just has that ring *shot*

I KNOW I AM USELESS T.T


Oh wow thank you so much for the feedback I really appreciate it *take note to crit your quests*

Am so glad it has come across like that, I really wanted it to be read lightly as there is alot of information there to take in, so am glad you enjoyed it!

And yes, we should totally meet her and Bridget up once they at least become school kids, I would like to see if they get along, and thusly would love them to be friends!! as long as you know what she is getting in too!!

I decided (as you can see) to go for Ate, not that I didnt like the name Pollux, but i know someone is questing for that name and they would do it much more justice than I ever could!



[UPDATE]
Now I just have to wait for this to be marked, I hope i have enough crit + its has now been accepted as a RL quest all i need for it to be stamped! Wish me luck <3

Hokay! Here comes a critique for you.

Off the bat though, I noticed a few little spelling/grammar errors. (Like "spay painting" under her hobbies. I assume you mean "spray painting.") Make sure you clean those things up before the official judges look it over. It can be a distraction. I'm going to take a section and show you all the mistakes in it to give you an idea.

Hobbies Section
Spray Painting/paintwork: When Venice isn't knee deep in mud or oil she is spending her free time expressing herself through her 'art' -- well, if you can call it that. What started as a rebellious act to write rude words on school property soon became a beloved hobby. and Venice's talent for using spray paint cans became apparent after a short while. Now she uses her skills to paint cars and her beloved quad bikes. Although it is not internationally recognised as artistic talent, you have to admit she is good at what she does.

I would avoid using a statement like the last one because it forces an opinion on the reader.


In that one paragraph, there are several small errors, but all together, it makes it hard to understand the paragraph. Be careful about run-on sentences. It is sometimes better to have a series of short sentences that make sense, as opposed to a longer one that is more convoluted.

Also, I can tell you another thing that the official markers (kali/maru) will bring up. Your human profile need to stick to the form outlined in the quest thread. Basically, you need to get rid of the "family" part under her "stats" first. It's a minor thing, but make sure you stick to the normal form.

On to the character itself!

The loyalty/forgiveness hobby needs some work. The first half seem unrelated to the latter portion. Perhaps leave the "hard to get along with" for the flaws section, and instead focus on how dedicated and forgiving she is to those people she considers friends.

I like the idea of the sarcasm flaw, but you need to work it better. That paragraph is very confusing to read. I think the key to it is the last phrase: "a terrible unsuccessful defense mechanism to weed out the weak and have the strong like-minded people by her side." That is the thesis of this trait, and I think you need to make it the focus. Venice is cruel and biting, which pushes most people away, but part of it seems intentional. She wants those who will stick by her to make that decision early on, but it is at the sacrifice of potential friends.

I have a clear picture of who Venice is, and I like that. I think her flaws fit together nicely with her virtues. You can have up to four, and I would encourage you to flesh her out as much as possible in that way.

For the senshi!

I like, "I'm going to mess up your world!" The other challenge is super long.

I really like the idea of attack 1b, but I'm not sure if that is allowed. Can senshi combine attacks? You'd have to check with rose on that.

Make sure you come up with a final attack. Kali/Maru won't judge it until you have all the information completed, which includes that attack.

Hope it helps!

[ Thank you so much for critiquing my character!!! I appreciate your time!!

@Spelling/Grammar:
You are extremely right with this part, i tend to type fast and fail to re-read what I put so i end up with a lot of spelling mistakes and errors, I will go through my quest with a fine tooth comb to sort all those bits out!!

@Form: I will remove that asap + I admit i was not sticking to the rule book there and because I wanted as much info as I could get I decided to do my own thing!! I shall amend!! <3

@Loyalty/forgiveness: I think I was trying to build up a sense of background to the character, but then missed out the whole reason for why that is a virtue XD I shall change it so it is more about the loyalty (and how she performs this loyalty) and then extend the history section if i need to vent her reason for being loyal etc etc

@Sarcasm: XD see its always good to know there is at least one person out there that knew what I was trying to get at!! I shall re-write that part and emphasis her reason being being sarcastic, but you pretty much hit the nail on the head!

@Challenge: I agree and was going to use that for the cert challenge, I was just happy I managed to use the word 'carbon footprint' in there somewhere because i hear it everyday XD

@Attack: I am not 100% sure myself, and I think I shall have to get that cleared before I make it a permanent feature. I know that in the anime they could combine attacks, but maybe only when they get to a very high level? But i don't want there to be an exception for me and no one else so I am defiantly going to check that out.

@Final attack: I should get of my lazy bum and complete it!!! I will choose from my list of possible attacks, but i think i have a good idea which one i would like to go for.

Thank you again for the crit, it has really helped!!! <3333

[ Going through all the crit and making sure everything is changed and updated for Venice, added some history sections to the hobbies to explain her love for them a little more - but plenty more to do! ]

Just out of curiousity, will the attacks have less effect if used in a clean place, like New Zealand and have more effect in a more pollutade place like Down town new york?
