i'm sorry but i have to agree with lou and say it lacks great originality...i just skimmed through the profile and lots of sentences stood out to me as describing Angel, the leather jacket was one of them, the greater good was another.

I have to vote it a no, a new start from scratch might turn out better.

Revenge was a character that was actually accepted once before at the beginning of Midseason one. He never posted and finally wound up on the pile of non-starting NPCs (or did I just erase his entire existence? I'm not sure)

I am willing to entertain the idea of bringing him back but I agree with Lou that he needs to lose some of the cliche and become a more original character before I'd consider it.

Hmm, I'm not sure. There are some good ideas here, unfortunately I find the overall proposal to be somewhat cliche ridden - Rick is the typical hero born out of the death of one of his parents AND true love (who is a vampire now).

I don't know, I don't like being so critical but this doesn't really strike me as an original character and I believe that we have turned down proposals from other people that have shown more originality. Plus, the writing style doesn't show much flair for creativity to me. (Remember how excited we felt when we recieved applications for Sam Aubrey and Parasol? I don't feel that here. :(

This particular character was submitted and accepted back before Season Two started, but he never got rolling. Our circumstances have changed somewhat since then, however... Please leave comments below, as usual.
