Hi! : D Just gonna jump straight into it, haha; I really like Cherry, she sounds very fun, both to play and to RP with! : D She's nicely thought out and I think you've rounded a lot of things in her personality section, giving the reader a good idea of who she is and how she acts (and reacts). I think you've been great at giving her both good and bad points; I'd say the favour is currently tipped slightly in favour of there being more bad points than good, though - I think you can safely take the fear of Hunters part and put it in her likes / dislikes, unless it's really something that affects her on a daily basis (for example, being so paranoid about Hunters coming to get her that she violently mistrusts anyone who looks too human, ie Reapers, or something like that). I also think it might also be a good idea to add the stuff you have in your third post (her family circumstance and reaction to it) to what you've already written for the 'Why are they enrolled in Amityville Academy?' answer, since it's a good elaboration on why she wants to explore and improve on her potential. Also, I'm not sure 'unconfined' is the right word for her (I had to look it up and it meant 'free from physical restraints' which doesn't really fit, haha), I think maybe 'insecure' would be better? I'm rubbish at natural abilities and FEAR, so I'm not going to attempt an assessment there (for everyone's good, lol). All in all, I think you have a really solid, fun character base and there's clearly great room for Cherry to grow in RP. : D I´think you've done a great job and I can't wait to see her in play!

Hey there! Congrats on being picked up for QF! biggrin
Just as a note, don't forget to change your title to [ENROLLMENT] and post in the enrollment thread!
Nat ability > This seems good, though maybe just a teensy bit of clarification - does she naturally just slip into the shadows, making it difficult for others to see her? Can she generate the shadows herself, or does she have to be in an area where there are already shadows? Just some limitations / explanations will make this easier to understand!
FEAR > This unfortunately needs to be changed a little; the only species allowed to use items / weapons are reapers, so she wouldn't be able to use her bandages.
History > While an interest concept, this really wouldn't fall into line with the TiH storyline and its canon. New students coming into Amityville don't really know or understand what hunters are (they're more like a fairy tale, so to speak), so this really wouldn't work too well. You could say that she's afraid of humans in general, but not hunters.
Other than that, she seems good! Welcome to TiH!

Thank you for pointing that out it's a misspelling I meant unconfident, unsure of herself. Thank you ^_^ I'll make those few edits

Other than that, she seems good! Welcome to TiH! Thank you I'll change hunter to humans then And what I meant about the bandages wasn't a weapon, The chill is healing right? I was talking about using shadows to heal, taking a shadow and kinda wrapping it around a wound. And yes I was thinking, only when shadows are present she can hide in them, thus her dislike of overly bright places. So if she were trapped in a blazing bright room there would be no place for her to hide.

I changed a few things based on what you two said, is that alright using shadows, with the same weakness as her natural ability, she needs shadows to use her fear ability.

Midnightglow18 I changed a few things based on what you two said, is that alright using shadows, with the same weakness as her natural ability, she needs shadows to use her fear ability. Yup, this works! So basically when healing, she uses shadows to wrap around herself / her ally, and this heals them? Sounds good!
