User blog comment:Detective SkullWolf/Character Critique Requests/@comment-27765057-20140228030703

Piano has requested that I critique one of his characters. One of the ones that I think people have bashed a bit is Krys, so let's try that one.

First of all, I think her being a unicorn is not only unique, but fits perfectly with the fact that she uses magic. Anyway, let's look at the stats. Now when I see unicorn, I immediately think fragile but fast. Being a magic-user means that she probably isn't focused on her base attack and defense. You should lower those two. Keep the sp. attack where it is because again she is focused on her magic.

As for her personality, I personally feel that it doesn't fit with her appearence. She looks like she would be a happy-go-lucky person with a bubbly personality. Doesn't necessarily mean you need to change it, but perhaps you could change up her outfit to fit her personality.

I don't really feel that there is anything majorly wrong with her history so I'm not really going to touch on it. The only thing I have to say is that maybe you should change it so that she instead begins to learn magic in her middle school years?

Finally, the powers. I saved this for last because I think that this is what gets Krys bashed the most. I can see why, she has a magic spell for just about any situation. Perhaps you could make it so that she dabs in a specific range of magic spells? Like ones that involve movement or maybe an element. Then you can sprinkle in a couple of other ones and say that she decided to slightly increase her range of studying. Make sure the ones you add are minor, like healing or feather-falling.

Overall, this character has its points of originality, like her appearance and her species choice. The only thing that is truly wrong with her is her power. That is the area I recommend you work on first if you want to improve her to becoming less "perfect", as other people seem to put it.
