HOW'S MY DRIVING?

HOW'S MY DRIVING?


Comment with the names of the characters you play for feedback on your roleplaying. Other players will then reply to your comment telling you what they honestly think in a constructive manner. While both praise and critique is welcome, we'd like to remind you that this is a valuable tool for many of our members. We'd like to request that all comments remain constructive.

While the staff highly encourages everyone to participate, only comment if you are capable of giving and taking potentially harsh concrit in a mature, level-headed manner. Assume good faith at all times. Crit is meant to be resolved, not "won". Give mutual respect for each other's work and ideas. Aggressiveness creates unproductive stress and conflict. If you are emotionally compromised, you are not fit to captain the Starship Enterprise need to step back, take a break, and then return when you're ready.

Anonymous commenting is DISABLED. If you want to receive anonymous crit anyways, please take advantage of the Private HMD thread (see below).

We have provided a form to post with, if you would like to use it. Mentioning things like canon points, permanent losses and recent major events in their lives in Paradisa may help give people a better idea of the character's mindset and current actions.



Alternatively, you may choose to post a link to your private HMD thread on the character's journal and take comments there instead. The first thread of this post will be reserved for those people, and we will freeze those comments. People will be expected to follow the link to the character's individual HMD to give crit there.

Fandom Name Here: Alex Mercer - [livejournal.com profile] cunning_carrier
Loss: Power downgrade. Meaning he can no longer consume humans, imitate them, use his devastators, or his vision-based powers.
Canon Point: After the first game's end, but before the start of the second game.
Notes: While nowhere near higher DC/Marvel levels of power, Alex is still pretty uber-hax when it comes to a straight physical battle. That being said, I'm trying to avoid making him too god-mod, because that just makes fights boring. Alex is also trying to not hurt bystanders, so that hampers him a lot. This is a guy who can kill people by accidentally glancing them with a blow, and sometimes has a hard time controlling his strength, so he has to be very careful when innocents are around.

Don't be afraid to message me or something, if you feel he's having too much of an advantage in a certain situation.
Specific Crit Requests: N/A

I've already left a comment about Alex in your personal HMD but I haven't received a reply yet. Just wondering if you saw :)

Ah, right! I see it, now. I'll jump right on that.

I don't know the canon at all, but Alex comes across as quite a private/distrusting individual; so I wonder if I could ask why he sat and told the castle as a whole about his entire backstory and deepest secrets?

Apologies if it's canonically IC for him to splurge like that, it only seemed jarring because of how he's been acting prior to that.

I worried about the canonicity of it, after I posted it up there. I might have overshot my goal in trying to generate conversation.
