User blog:BlazingLeopard/SFW Summer 2017 Awards Votes

Surprise! I'm voting again this year. I bet you didn't expect that this year, did'ya? You did? Well, shit...

Anyways, onto the voting!

Best Hero

 * Reens the Hedgehog - During this event last year, I said that an expansion on her history and personality would be nice and gave her a neutral vote. One year on (because I skipped the Winter Awards), I see there's been a revamp. A pretty good revamp, I might add. +1
 * Zaffre Fylloma the Koala - Zaffre is a very different kind of hero, at least compared to most. Most deal with things like "the bad guys" and the "Eggmans". He likes to deal with other things that kill people. I like that +1
 * Marissa FireRose - I'm getting the feeling that Marissa and her twin sister's powers were inspired by Iblis and Mephiles. Aside from that, she doesn't seem to have done anything really heroic. Also, the formatting and grammar on the page is quite messy and difficult to read sometimes. If the creator wants help with this, I'm sure people will be willing to help. Marissa does seem like a promising character, but the lack of heroic-ness and the state of the page means I'm giving this a downvote. Soz. -1
 * Cheeri The Cat - Again, another character with potential but nothing that strikes me as "heroic". Adding more detail to the history about her heroic actions and a detailed personality section would make this page a lot better. Good start, but for now, it's a downvote. -1
 * Cyra The Archer - A very well-written character so far. However, due to the simple "TBA" in the biography section, I'm going to stay neutral for now. (I'm very tempted to change this to an upvote though. Everything on the page so far is clear and concise. I also like her name.)
 * Ali Atesh the Caracal - I like this character a lot. While he is quite boisterous, he's kind and his actions in Central City show his heroic nature. Upvoted. +1
 * Vendeta the Hedgehog - He was happy with defending the Chronosabre rather than using it. When war broke out, he fought for peace rather than control, so he's a hero. Is he a good one? Yeah. Would be nice to learn a little bit more about what the Chronosabre is though. +1

For: 4, Against: 2, Neutral: 1

Best Neutral

 * Luella the Mouse - A pretty decent (and tragic) backstory and an introverted personality. She's a well-written character. My only gripe is a few grammatical issues, but that's just me being fussy. +1
 * Asher The Fennec Fox - Another well-written neutral character. Kind-hearted, but not quite a hero. Just your average magician. +1
 * Mars the Dire Wolf - I like this guy too, mainly because his electrokinesis came from something other than a mysterious gem or being born. Other than that, he's quite neutral and original. +1
 * Nocmere - An old man in an old house that just wants to be left the fuck alone... IN SPAAAAAACE. On a more serious note, I like Nocmere and feel that he is a very neutral character that just wants to get his things done on his own. +1
 * Tobias the Crescent - Yet another neutral character that I like. His personality reminds me of Brock from Pokemon a little bit. +1
 * Saphie the Swift - Again, another well-written neutral character. Obviously she does bad things, but it's not necessarily villainous, at least in my eyes. Aside from that, I like her. +1
 * Rik the Spider Monkey - Stay neutral on this neutral.
 * Paradox the Spider - Content on the page, at least to me, seems fairly scarce, but I'll put this to the fact of how new it is. So far, it's a good start and I like how it's written as if it's some official government document. It'd be nice to know more about him in the future... Or the past... Or maybe even the present? +1
 * Arrow the Hedgehog - So, he ages in dog years, despite being a hedgehog? Anyway, overall, I think he's pretty generic and unoriginal, mainly because he's literally Sonic and Shadow slapped together. Sorry, it's gonna be a downvote from me. -1

For: 7, Against: 1, Neutral: 1

Best Villain

 * Heath Iliad the Monkey - I see a villainous personality, but nothing really villainous. I'm neutral.
 * Aeon the Hedgehog - Again, a villainous personality, but nothing that really strikes me as villainous. Neutral.
 * J.C. the Hyena - Putting aside the grammatical issues I have with it (e.g. "resetted", "rewinded"), I think this character needs work. For a start, how is he, a villain, friends with Sonic, a hero? And how did they meet? I mean, I'd have thought that it'd be a major point in his history? I'm giving a negative vote on this one. -1
 * Mira the Fennec - Manipulative as fuck. I love manipulative characters (which is one of the reasons Sombra is my favourite Overwatch character), and here, she's shown to manipulate people to like her and give her power. Anyways, upvoted. +1
 * Luna the Bunny - Yet again, villainous, but no sufficient evidence of being a villain.
 * The Mastermind - Firstly, it took me 19 seconds to read this page fully. Secondly, I don't see how he's villainous (other than wanting to kill Sonic) and I see no evidence of his villainy. It's a downvote. -1
 * Doctor Jay the Hedgehog - I feel that, while it is a good start, not enough is explained. For example, if he can already travel in time, why doesn't he just travel back to the day of the crash and prevent it somehow? I'm neutral.
