... So, you're talking about a Berserker, right? A normally well-mannered individual who can hype themselves into an unstoppable juggernaut of death? Cause they're definitely a thing. Hell, I think that trope is one of the staples of the genre you're not supposed to know about yet.

I do wonder how that sort of concept would work on a temperament scale though. It was probably complex cases like these that got the concept retired in the first place.



... And as for the colours, I'm glad SOMEONE pointed it out! :P

All fixed!

But... why though? I was complimenting you on an interesting idea. O_o

I don’t mind you editing minor things, but if you do, please give me an indication of what you’ve edited. My memory really isn’t the best (as Inferi and Azi can probably attest). :p Pot calling the kettle black, I know!

As far as I can tell, you’ve went from a Black Belt to a Red Belt. Both belts have vastly different meanings depending on the style of Karate, with the red belt in particular ranging from high to low rank. Without knowing the specific style, it's hard to tell how experienced Annie is.

Also, are you sure you want Annie to be a musclebound 11 year old? I find it hard to picture, since ones muscles don't really begin to develop until mid-to-late teens. It's not something I've ever come across.


I'm happy with the Bio as it is right now. There's nothing you NEED to "fix" unless you want to, and I'm only discussing the things about your character that interest me.

That depends. Do you want Annie to be seen as a child, or taken seriously as an adult? If it's the latter, you'll probably want to look at being 15+. If it's the former, you'd likely be looking at the 11-14 age bracket.

Yeah, I don't know exactly how to make it work temperament-wise either, which is one of the reasons I tried explaining it to you. I was gonna originally make her fire-based, but since Annie predictably already dove into that I don't want to be the same as someone else.

I guess the transformed state fits the title of berserker, but that's almost a sidenote in my mind since my main focus was on the normal form interaction with what she becomes. She doesn't exactly "hype" herself into it, but I know what you mean and it's close enough that I'm not gonna argue it's different. Done in by the dubious doings of destiny.

There's nothing wrong with having two temperaments of the same type! It would create similarities, but Temperaments are a loose scale, not a cookie cut mould. That said, two individuals who demand control could cause issues down the track.

If I had to guess, I would say it would be a cross between a Melancholic and a Choleric - someone who is afraid of the unknown and conscious of others, but once they obtain the courage to get over their fear, they simply trample over everything in their path. Or maybe transformations change her temperament entirely?

Maybe you have another interpretation?

This is what I get for using a system I don't fully understand myself!

This is what I was going for. Reclusive and shy as a normal person, while lusting for destruction and loving it in a transformed state. Weak personality into strong personality while switching back to weak afterwards. Done in by the dubious doings of destiny.
