Review 160 // Alexandra Cahill

Here is a review for IronicHoodies

My comments will be in bold

Basics and grounding


Alright I've said my comments on this before but I would like to take this moment to say that I can't remember every character that I'm given and it's hard to find a specific one due to the amount of characters I've looked at. So, in future could you just write out the universe again instead of me having to go search for it in my past reviews.

Character information



I like her description, it's well done and thought out but maybe add small details like body type and such.

Now, my only actual issue here is how you're handling DID, whilst it is obvious to fit the plot and everything, having only one alter that is murderous and evil is not only misrepresentation of the disorder but also kinda cliché. Whenever handling any mental disorder you need to do a lot of research and understand what you're working with, especially when working with one as rare and unpredictable as this one. You have to be able to realistically portray it in a way that just isn't for your plot.

As far as the personalitys goes, I think add some more negative traits to Alex's and more positive ones to AC.

Relationships


These are fine but you gotta be careful with dead parents and addiction issues. Make sure these relationships effect and develop the character.

Backstory






T

his is an interesting plot, don't get me wrong, but it's so negative that there isn't really anything for the characters to cling to. You need to add more positive points for the character to keep going and everything.

I've already said my issues with the use of the mental disorder.

You also have to make sure you show the trauma of these events on the other character. You said one character was traumatised for a week after seeing her mother get murdered. That's years of trauma, not just a week. You gotta research traumatic events and the effect of them so that the reaction feels realistic.

Stats

These are near enough balanced so I don't really have an issue with them.

Final thoughts
I like the concept this character has, however I dont think that the way you've gone about it is 100% there. Work on how you're portraying the disorder and the characters Backstory a bit. Work on details and fleshing her out to help out too and she should be good.

*My critiques are simply at your request and to help improve your character. It is not my intention to cause any offence and you, of course, do not have to listen to what I've said. This is all just a bit of fun and I apologise if I have done any kind of damage*
