Is Freedom Fighter just another sob story? · 11:02pm May 7th, 2018
Is he just another pity case, like most other OCs on the site? Or did he have a sufficiently compelling and extraordinary backstory? Because I'm concerned about if people found his behavior out of line for him when he was showing the girls it in the Matrix. Freedom Fighter doesn't break down and cry! Freedom Fighter doesn't have insecurities about emotional support! The legendary Freedom Fighter doesn't need a reason for the girls to love him for no reason.
And cutting his wrists? Really? That right there almost crossed the line into "Eating Tide Pods" territory.
It's like in another fic I've read where the main character is a Japanese anime-style human who wears black and red and possesses DBZ-style powers, but he had both his parents killed, plus his grandfather,--oh, and he was raped as a child. Along with his other friend who was a bully of his back on Earth but he changed when he also came to Equestria. (The fic in question is Equestrian Human Spirit.)
Am I really just making cringy OCs??!! I tried not to, but it ended up like this anyway! It's grinding irrationally on me for some obscure reason! I irrationally think that people are disappointed with my work because my products are just another one in a million on the site.
I don’t think there’s anything wrong with your characters.
Maybe if you just give people links to your stories, you can be a little more noticed. That’s what I like to do at times when I want to show certain people my work.

I put a story at the end of my blog posts where it says add story. I didn't think I would need to add a link as well.
No Brady, Freedom Fighter isn't just any old sob story. He represents what somepony can become when pushed to their limits of pain and past them, so they retreat inward, away from others out of fear that their pain will never go away, and that no pony can help them.
What Freedom really needs is some therapy, a day out with friends, and a hug.
