Sylver, the apothecary

• Name change to Sylver
  
• Appearance changed a little

Sylver wrote:Mental

Sylver excels when he is using his head to forge clever tactics and strategies to help give him the advantage in any sort of conflict. Calm as he ever was, he would only land claw strikes at vital points of the body, hoping to cripple the enemy enough until they are no longer able to fight. Sylver also tends to use the environment to his advantage and frequently studies his surroundings for anything suspicious. The sentence that I highlighted in bold should go into the fighting style section.

His childhood also granted him additional strengths related to his mentality. He is capable of quickly studying the blueprint of any sort of locations and immediately pick out the quickest routes in and out of certain places thanks to his high analytical skills. Sylver can also determine the line of sight from most dragons, after having to sneak around as a young hatchling to steal food, and therefore can slip past guards who are not alerted of anything suspicious. Needing to survive the cruel streets of Xoya has also given him increased awareness of his surroundings. Unless those following him are trained by the shadows, Sylver can easily detect anyone spying on him.

Physical

The only point worth noting about Sylver’s physical strengths is his speed. Sylver can react quickly and fast enough to dodge normal claw strikes, but speedy fighters can overcome this advantage. His physical strength is very subpar. A claw strike from him will at most bruise his enemy. However, his physical strength is covered by Nymesis to some extent.

Sylver wrote:Gets exhausted easily

Having to use his brain constantly can quickly generate a mental strain on him. The more complicated his strategy is, or the more frequent he has to plot, the more energy it will take out of him. Because of his poor physical strength, Sylver is very reliant on the environment for opportunities to take his opponent by surprise. As such, a level playing field with nothing to use will be a huge disadvantage for him.

Squishy

Sylver’s defence is very non-existent. He has no protective abilities saved for being able to switch places with Nymesis, but both will still sustain equal damage to one another. Sylver did not have a bulky physique. Any attack on him will hurt slightly more than if an average dragon was hit. Therefore not taking any hits is imperative for him when he wants to win in fights.

Sub-par strength

As stated above, Sylver essentially exchanged his strength for a slight speed advantage. Therefore he would have the disadvantage if he were to get into a claw fight with a much larger or muscular foe. Nymesis could assist him in dealing with these sort of foes, but the increased vulnerability of Nymesis' presence just to add a dragon with average strength may not always be beneficial

Not necessarily. This can go with either mental or physical strength if you think about it.

So...

Strengths- excels at forging clever tactics and strategies, highly analytical, can determine line of sight from most dragons so that he can easily slip past most guards, increased awareness of surroundings, can detect anyone spying on him, speed, good reflexes, has Nymesis to cover his physical strength. 8 in total.

You added 'Highly analytical' here yourself, and I can simply argue that I put 'determining line of sight', 'increased awareness' and 'spy detection' to specifically explain WHY he has high analytical skills, since it encompasses everything. Or should I just leave it as ambiguous and vague as 'highly analytical' and that's it?

Nymesis is part of Sly's "Abilities", not "strengths" as per the app, so this shouldn't even be counted to be his strengths.

Weaknesses- 5-ish. You know what you have to do. And no, I'm not counting your dragon's strengths and weaknesses by the words in bold like "squishy" and "sub-par strength" - I'm picking out the strengths and weaknesses you mentioned in your sentences.

How about listing what the weaknesses are like you did with strengths rather than pulling that number out of your a**? To me, I counted seven:

• Prone to mental stress
  
  
• Reliant on the environment
  
  
• No defensive abilities
  
  
• Damage done to either Sylver or Nymesis is shared at equal potency between them
  
  
• Sylver has no bulky physique (therefore squishy)
  
  
• Get into a claw-fight with Sylver and he loses
  
  
• Sylver has increased vulnerability with Nymesis active because he has to take care of both bodies to not sustain any injuries
  

Anyway, bump when edited. ^^
