Bio Chart

~I’m assuming 13-18 in age refers to his timeline in-story, with 13 being start of story and 18 being end or current point?

~Definitely in need of defined status for height and weight.

Appearance

Descriptive as before. Not much else to note except that he’s well-described.

Personality

His personality seems a bit standard for the protagonist architype but that isn’t to say it’s bad. There’s a nice give and take with positive and negative traits here.

Powers

~With the ergokinesis, what kind of energy specifically does he control? Is it just any kind of energy? There are quite a few people could list off, and not everyone would agree on what constitutes an energy. There’s Chaos Energy, Ki (or Core in Sonic), Magic, and then there are elements like light or electricity.

~You’ll want to put actual numbers to Sid’s physical abilities. Otherwise, it’s easy to manipulate and exaggerate his traits. As is, all I see here is “He’s similar to this character” and “He’s more than average person in this area”.

~Additionally, it’s usually best not to compare your character to canon characters for their abilities and traits. His speed compared to Sonic, his strength to Knuckles, and so on doesn’t really give us any actual information, and it makes the character feel more dependent on the canon characters to be interesting.

~All of this applies down to the MISC traits as well.

Weaknesses

Character flaws should be separated from weaknesses unless they cause an actual physical break like losing vision or something. Things like his phobia of bugs, his self-conscious attitude  about immorality, immaturity, and distractability aren’t so much weaknesses as character flaws. Unless incredibly exaggerated, these won’t usually affect the character in a physical situation like a fight.

History

~I think it would be better to have the history be part of his main page. Until Sid’s history becomes much longer, I don’t think it warrants its own page because it’s not something that could take up too much of his main page.

~Additionally, so far the backstory seems to only deal with his origin, so I’ll be watching to see more in general of his future adventures written up.
