Critique a Sith Knight

[Seris Caine]

I'm curious as to what people think of Leos/Ignus based on their interactions with him. I've met quite a few of you in RP with him at this point, and I know own others have done some reading of threads he's been in.

So what do you all think of him? If you aren't familiar with him or need a refresher of who he is, there's a thread tracker in his bio that's up to datell.

Feel free to be constructively critical of him. If there's something you think needs improving let me know.

I haven't written with you as much as I'd like, but I've read a bunch of your work and there are many things I appreciate about Leo.

He is focused and driven and that to me is what makes him 'frightening' in the way one wants a Sith to be intimidating. Not to mention that idealism is consistent in everything you write so I have no issues conceptualizing him in my mind when I read. I like that he is cool and calm and collected in his aims. It's his laser-focus above anything that makes him just as Sith and spooky as someone blowing up planets randomly for fun. Your writing is beautiful and flows well, and rarely do I enjoy when characters make looooong speeches and yet I'll read Ignus' word for word.

I'd like to see more of his motivation and emotion, what makes him tick, but that's more a personal wish than a critique. Looking forward to more!

Eh. You're alright.

 

[Grrwunhoooll Agaburry]

I like ya so far. Site needs more back scene Sith. My only quirk is this; Does the character [member="Darth Ignus"] have his own agenda or is he following the masses.

 

[Seris Caine]

[member="Nulgath Zardai"]
He has his own agenda. Very much so.

[member="Niysha"]
Oh hush, you.

We haven't done any threads together but I have read some of your work.

He strikes me as the perfect Jedi Diplomat. I am not saying that trying to be funny he really does.



He apparently doesn't like to fight.

He approaches talks in a claim give and take meet me in the middle manner.

There seems to be no true display of emotion or stress in what he does. He's too methodical in his thought process like everything is a giant Chess bored.

He seems to regard every Jedi as an equal rather than a hindrance to his goal.


I guess basically if he were a Jedi he would be one of the greatest I have read in quite a while. As a Sith though he reads like a great suspense novel that hasn't managed to spoil the surprise twist yet. Although in my random selection of your threads I may have missed the aha there it is moment in his development that ties it all together.

[member="Vengeance"] It seems that the last thread I've read was about him going back to the light or something like that.

 

[Seris Caine]

I'm not going back to the light. Definitely not, lol.

[member="Vengeance"]
Suspense is good. *grins mischievously*

 

[Darth Carnifex]

Yer pretty cool

Even if you are a little too idealist for my tastes

We can't all be genocidal maniacs.

 

[Darth Carnifex]

Some species are just destined to burn, [member="Darth Ignus"]

I merely speed up the process

 

[Seris Caine]

[member="Darth Carnifex"]
Eh, kinda boring to me.

 

[Darth Carnifex]

It's the dangers you risk when an invasive apex predator is introduced to a foreign ecosystem

[member="Darth Ignus"]

 

[Seris Caine]

I suppose. But when the apex predator is sentient it tends to have a different, thoughtful, reaction.

[Darth Carnifex]

That is the blessing of possessing higher cognitive functions than our beastly brethren.
