Selkirk;; SkyWing OC
Submitted by the wonderful Trogon33!

BASIC INFORMATION;;
------ Name: Selkirk.
I love it.
------ Age: 32.
It's really great, the amount of older/middle-aged characters you guys are submitting.
------ Gender: Male.
------ Sexuality: Straight.
------ Tribe: SkyWing (Pure).
There's a lot more SkyWings here than I originally realised. Also, another observation, I think (?) there's more pure SkyWings here than SkyWing hybrids. That's fantastic.
------ Abilities: Typical SkyWing abilities,good eye for detail.
Alright.
------ Relationship Status: Single.
Poor boi.
------ Occupation: Fortification inspector.
I love how fancy this sounds. Suits the "eye for detail" you mentioned in his abilities too.

PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION;;
------ Scale Colour: Light red scales, outlined by a long strip of gold.
Red and gold is a great colour scheme.
------ Eye Color: Brown.
I don't know if brown-eyed SkyWings exist in the canon, but I won't be that pedantic.
------ Build: Fairly muscular, a little overweight.
Great!
------ Height: Tall.
How tall are we talking?
------ Extras: Very short tail, meaning he tends to lean forward a bit while in flight.
I'm no aerodynamicist, so I won't question this. Wouldn't this also affect his ability to make sharp turns, at least to a degree?

PERSONALITY;;
------ Strengths: Punctual, good work ethic, not easily distracted, dedicated to Queen Scarlet.
I'm not sure if dedication to Scarlet, of all dragons, is entirely a strength. This suits a fortification inspector, though.
------ Weaknesses: Gullible, not practiced in claw-to-claw combat.
There's definitely not that many SkyWings who aren't, so kudos.

BACKSTORY;;
Had a happy childhood; his parents had enough money to send him to school.
Explain a bit?
His father (Heliopause) is currently an accountant (he is above the SkyWing army conscription age).
Heliopause is a great name (although I may have read it as Menopause first. Sorry). I'm glad you offered an explanation.
His mother (Erbine) works the night shift at a lance-crafting factory.
Interesting! I've always loved the idea of dragons with weapons, although it's not often mentioned in the series. Factory work is quite an interesting job.

COMMENTS;;
------ The good...
Well, he's definitely an original character. I love the names you give your characters, and I especially liked how he defies the common SkyWing stereotype. He's the perfect example of a model OC.
------ The bad...
You do need to expand a little in his backstory; it's rather plain. You mentioned where his parents work, but is that really all we need to know about his life? This would also help you in the personality section. Your writing style is great, but everything seems a little short and sparse at the moment.
------ How you can improve!
Open up, open up, open up! You have a lot of fun ahead of you. I always find it easier to expand on things than to cut them down, once you get the knack of it. Start by using full sentences, then begin fleshing out some details for him. You've got plenty of material already.

OVERALL RATING;; 8/10.
This should've been uploaded a long time ago, and I'm sorry for the delay. Things came up between me and my boyfriend, and I've had to back away and work things out. Plus school's on now, so I have work and stuff. I really love doing these reviews and I promise I care about each and every one of you.
