    Seven Years: An update

    So... This is it. The seven year anniversary of Shadowbolts: a Memoir.

    Smoke Rises.... The Forge Awakens...

    So... I have been away for a long time. Far too long, and I apologize. A brief thumbnail of the past year would be a new apartment, two jobs at once, two girlfriends, two breakups, and a much-needed rest at RTX... :ajsleepy:

    An Update (in more ways than one)

    Hey everyone,
    So first thing’s first, just to get it out of the way. SaM15 is currently about halfway done, but progress has been painfully slow on it recently.

    Now onto the second part of this post, TLDR: I’m changing the rating of SaM to “Mature”, but I’m not drastically upping the graphic content.

Final Score :: 7-9
RESULT :: 06-15 :: Balanced Character.
05 :: Anti-Sue.
Your character may be a bit on the boring side. Of course, this does depend on, but generally, if they score that low, it wouldn't hurt to 'spice them up' a bit.
06-15 :: Balanced Character.
If your OC scored around here, then they are probably quite a well-balanced and interesting character. Those scoring at the higher end of this category may be a bit too much, though.
16-25 :: Borderline Mary-Sue.
We have a problem. You need to tone your character down. They are most likely a bit annoying to others, too.
26 :: Mary-Sue.
Please revise your character... right now.

Well, somewhere within the balanced range is good for me. XD
