I must thank you for that one, Snoof. XDD

*may just have to try and bribe Kyou after she finishes pinning down more detail and such* Right now, wolf is coming so much more easily than the cactus....

Aww, that's too bad Niki. I really found the conflicting natures of the snowflake and the cactus very interesting from an artistic stand point. The wolf is interesting too, but I mean everyone's seen a white wolf before.

HI! Here's my critique.

Your fel essence is absolutely superb. ; u; Simple, yet it has the capability for so much more in terms of Raevan power development in the future. I love that you picked identical snow flakes, focusing on the lack of individuality in these flakes instead of a nevermelting snowflake type essence. Props to you missy!

As for soul ideas, I am quite impressed with these as well. Your two choices a wolf and cactus all make for interesting combinations! Like Snoof, I am also finding favor in the wolf soul. xD

I read over your potential Raevan personalities and here's what I think on them.

On Raevan and guardian interactions with the Wolf + Identical Snowflake, it seems like your guardian is generally seen as someone who other people find easy to walk on. Especially given her trait of wanting to please people by putting in her best effort.

How would the Raevan handle that? Would he consider her passive personality something that needs to be protected or view her as someone beneath him? Since, he seems to do that wolf pack hierarchy thing. If he viewed her as something that needed protecting, I can see a really wonderful dynamic between. With Nikiana trying to be more independent while the Raevan gets more and more protective. Like.... a reverse relationship of what is normally expected? I'm not sure if I'm making sense.

Also, for this personality I think Bold would be another acceptable trait to list down. It would fit under leader, but I think bold can also be construed a little differently.

Now onto your other Raevan's personality. Garret! I like that you gave him the stubbornness of a cactus. Like seriously, if a cactus isn't a stubborn plant I don't know what is. LOL

His regarding apathy towards interactions with others kind of worries me. It could lead for a lot of development, but it can also make RPing with others hard I think. And I think, it's better to go with a character that's easier to interact with others when RPing. I have a hard time RPing with characters who are 'impartial of meeting others' because it leaves RPs really dry and hard. Maybe you can do it differently, but a lot of the responses end up being like 1-2 sentences that are said by the character and 1-3 paragraph just... describing things that don't need to be described.

I love that Garret is set on a routine. The thing with him getting irritated if some portion big or small changes can be played up to a lot of fun. I also see it being hard for Garret and Nikiana for the first week or so while he sets into a routine, and she ends up having to learn it as well. xD <3

But other than that, I really don't know what to say.

Your guardian I would like to meet. And, I can also see her benefiting greatly from having a Raevan.

Overall, 10/10. Would read again.

No seriously, you have wonderful ideas up here. I just wish I could be more... critiquey. Q A Q. SORRY I SUCK AT THIS. I just... I tried. u_u

I want to see Wolf + Snowflakes potential Raevan personality filled out in greater detail. Yes, I like Wolflakes the most right now for Fel/Soul combination as well.

LOL Wolflakes. XDD

On Wolflakes... *snickers* I could see him and Niki getting into a sort of dominance game. While Niki's a pushover, she'd also take the guardian role rather seriously. So the Raevan would probably defer to her upon first coming home, it wouldn't take long before he started getting his way a bit and then more and more. He'd definitely protect her as his mother-figure, still in a sense above him, but not really (in his mind, at least).

Ooh, yes, bold. That fits nicely~

Cactus: No water? No soil? Psh, I'm gonna grow here anyways and get big! SO THERE! XP

Hmm, yeah, I see what you mean on Garret. I'll tweak him a bit. He's more of a sort of one-on-one type guy instead of being dumped into a social group activity. He also wouldn't actively seek out others, but wouldn't just walk away if they came up to him and started talking. Unless... they really started pushing buttons.

Thanks Herby~

Tossed up a poll for the lazy. XD

Also elaborated a bit on Wolflakes' personality.

And added a feeding method to both (same though XD).
