TYSM!!!
His hair I'm unsure exactly how to describe it, it's like black but starting to turn silver, so I'm not sure if it qualifies as salt and pepper, as it's pretty evenly silvering, not in patches
Definitely will add a nationality! Thanks for reminding me to do that lol

AHHH TYSM I'm so glad he's well-made, I agonized over him all day lol Thanks one last time! xD

@Rainy_day_artist_classic group

Of course hun! Happy to help (Though I did that minimally- ahah)

For the rest of you, I promise I'm getting to you! I've just been crazy busy with school work, and yesterday wasn't a good day. I will get to you!

@Rainy_day_artist_classic group

@salami011, man I'm sorry it's taking me so long. I'm going to do my best to give you something actually worth your patience (same goes for all of you!)

Looks: So, just because I'm trying to actually do something… for his eyes. How would you describe them? Are they sharp, soft? How would you describe them in better detail? (For e.g., I have a set of siblings, and one of them has "Soft features, all except her rather sharp icy blue eyes." and the other has "Sharp features, but soft ocean blue-green eyes"). For his hair, I've got some idea, but more detail would definitely be lovely! Is it soft, and wavy? Or is it dry, due to the frequent dying? You have "Nick is naturally pale.", which has me wondering if he tans often? Just asking! (And I know this looks like a lot, but clearly I just over explain- ahah)

Mannerisms: These are great! Though I see you were struggling to explain one? What I'm getting is that either A.) he talks himself through a situation, trying to just think straight. Or B.) He just mumbles off in rambles, not really working through anything. Just a noise to distract him from their current situation. If neither, and you're still in need of help, just hmu or ask here!

Flaws: They look great! Though, I have one question, just because one of them fits me. For being indecisive, does he get stressed out when he has to make an on the spot decision? From personal experience, I get stressed out when someone is getting frustrated at my indecisiveness. Eheh-

Fears: That's a good thing to add! Though one thing I'd add, is more in depth about how he would react if he were in such a situation. Does he freeze up? Does he start breathing quicker? And maybe how well he handles/hides his fear.

Andddd I promise to come back! It's taken me way too long to do this- eheh… I'll finish it, I promise you!

Favorites: It looks like you have it for one of them, but just thought I'd say this. For his favorites, give reasons why they're his favorites. Not really with a ton of detail, but just a little bit of reason why he would like what he does.

Julia: So, you seem to have her mentioned yet when looking at it, she doesn't seem to exist? Or maybe she's locked, so I just can't see her. But I was just going to ask, if you think she should be put under friends, or somewhere else. Just so you know the two have a relationship of some kind.

Others: For a few other notes, which you may have written down somewhere, but I'd take the time to find out a couple things. Such as his Hogwarts house (even if you aren't a Harry Potter fan, it's just a fun thing to know.), and/or his Zodiac sign.

That's all I have for you! I hope I was able to help!

@moss

Thank you! That was really helpful! Also, thanks for the hogwarts house idea. Now I'm gonna have to sort all my characters, lol

@Rainy_day_artist_classic group

I finally got the motivation for this, so I'm doing it now. No distractions.

@CrackpipeDreamer, let's see what I have for you.

Looks: For what you have, that's a very vivid picture. I can picture him quite well. (Even without looking at the gallery.) The only thing I have to say, adding in a height and weight helps that even more. It gives a better impression what exactly his muscle build is. If you say he's 5'5'' (1.6764 meters), and weighs about 120 lbs (54.4311 kg.) he'd be pretty average. (despite being much shorter for his age, of course.) Just a thought, you might want to add that in.

Flaws: That's a cool way of doing it… I like that ahah. But one question, in the major flaws. Where it says he is oblivious to feelings, is he blunt or straightforward when he talks? Does he give it to others just the way it is without sugar coating it? Or is it some other way of being rude and insensitive? Just thought I'd ask for the clear up.

Talents/Hobbies: Those are all good, especially: Kade most commonly decides to slap people with them. though I'd like to ask if he has any other normal or obscure talents? Is he one that knows how to cook quite well, or knows how to play any instruments, or possibly even talking backwards? For the hobbies, again they're great. But is there any little things he enjoys when he's unable to go for walks? He could possibly enjoy writing poetry (maybe not the best at it, but he tries), or maybe he finds a joy in playing chess or checkers.

Personality: That is good, an awesome job right there, leaving me with only one thing to add on. How he handles his emotions. Is he one to just go with it, and suffer the consequences of his actions later? Or does he try and bottle them up, and hide them away until later. Honestly, that's the only thing I can see being hard to figure out without just knowing. Going through, my perspective has changed on and off.

Social: The favourites are all good, and honestly everything you have that's there is good. The only thing, does he have a religion? Is he just born under one because his father told him that's what was right? Maybe after awhile it would fade, but is he "suppose" to believe in something, because his father said so?

After a long time, I finally got this done. I hope I helped you some, at least.

@Anemone eco

(Aha. I had a height and weight but I updated the character form, so I have to add it back lmao. Thank you so much, Rainy! I appreciate it.)
