Alright this is finally something I can actually give a critique for. First off the grammar and spelling mistakes are rather terrible in here. While normally I am not one to care too much about this as long as it is legible, this time im going to ask you to at least fix most of the miswording and spelling errors. Two things make me feel this requires revising and editing because of this. One, it is difficult to interpret, and two is this is a big three app, and so I get to be as nitpicky as my mood allows. A few typos and the like are to be expected, and I myself do not have perfect grammar. here however it looks clunky and confusing because the wording of many of the sentences. When I have to strain my brain mentally correcting your writing to be legible then you need to do some editing. Proofreading is your friend.

Now onto critiquing the content. First off the "He was killed" part confused me for a bit before since Zeus is a god and cannot die, do you mean she thought he was killed? did Zeus fake his death? because a One night stand does not guarentee marriage and so there is no real reason they'd continue being in contact if it was just a fling. Another thing though this is a personal issue, and is optional to fix because there are cases it is true. NOT ALL ALCOHOLICS ARE ABUSIVE. It is a generalization and frankly there is no reason somebody can't be abusive solely because reasons like maybe they were saddled with this responsibility for no reason and so use the abuse as an outlet for such frustrations, but im gonna end this rant because it isn't too important right now.

Also considering the severe scarring which is permanent this degree of burning would require medical attention. Medical attention that would then bring this case to the attention of social services and even if somehow the aunt got away with not getting medical attention, the damage is in a difficult to hide location and is severe enough people will notice it. Social services WOULD get involved here. The reason child abusers can get away with what they do is that they try to avoid serious injury like this, and when they do cause damage that requires medical attention it is something that can easily be explained away. Such as a broken arm or the like. Severe burning enough to "burn off half her face" is not easily explained away. A child would not hold their face to a stove on their own for long enough to do this level of damage, so there is no way of avoiding legal repercussions.


The personality is not really telling me anything about who your character is as a person. Reflexes are not part of personality, and also the simple fact is TOO good makes me think they react preemptively, and thus ineffectively. What do you mean by TOO good? Also I do not know what "Max does not have any love for anyone exept her died mom. " means, do they hate everyone? are they apathetic to others? Do they not have any interest in forming bonds or connections to others? this does not make sense. What does "Not emotional" mean? Everyone feels emotions, it is a natural and necessary part of the human mind. Perhaps masking their emotions or the like, trying to put a front of emotional strength up instead? Personality also needs to be fleshed out more, I gave you examples of other apps to use as reference, I recommend looking them over.

By "sees everything" do you mean they notice everything? because I am vetoing that, nobody is that observant.

I do not see how "Not needing love" is a fatal flaw, or even really a flaw at all. Some people are just naturally loners, it is unfortunately a majority of characters I see. So "not needing love" doesn't work for this category. If i can recommend something based off your personality you mention not fearing anything...so would that not make them impulsive or careless? jumping into situations without worrying about the repercussions of their actions? that would work as a fatal flaw and ties into actual personality trait, but it is merely a suggestion for what you could do.


Those are some of the more obvious issues, gods this is a long critique but I felt it only right to explain many of my decisions and the like. We try to keep things realistic on this site.
