Ceithan's kind of a helpless coward.
I didn't see this anywhere, so hopefully I'm not making a double thread
Show me your characters that would do poorly in a fight, or are horribly weak in some way.
Perhaps they are strong in other ways, in intelligence or have a stellar sense of fashion, or are an excellent silvertongue and can get themselves out of any situation etc. but physically they would not do well in a fight, they'd trip over themselves or turn and run the first chance they get, they might flee from a battle because they are afraid of getting so much as a scratch or simply don't know how to throw a punch.
Maybe instead of physically, they are weak willed and can't control themselves from stealing objects when someone isn't looking or they must hit on every pretty face they meet.
Feel free to list the weaknesses (and if you want to include strengths too) /pros/cons of your character if you want!
Or write/describe a scenario showing the character's weakness
Show me your pathetic characters!

I'd say that Malka is my physically weakest and pathetic character in terms of their strength. Sure he has a powerful enchantment ability, he gets people to do whatever the heck he wants because they fall in love with him!
Without that power, he couldn't hold his own at all. first sign of trouble and he panics if he doesn't get his way, or if his powers don't work the way he wants them to. I doubt he even knows how to cook food or dress himself properly without someone's guidance. He depends too much on other people and on his own magic abilities.

Alright, after reading all your guys' amazing, cowardly and pathetic ocs, I want to witness a battle royale where they all try to fight each other. come'on, it'll be hilarious. I promise.
Agnes has never exercised in her life, nor did any work whatsoever before 18. Her parents literally paid for her not to have gym class, chores, or homework because she used to throw terrible, violent temper tantrums. She's a soft and weak shorty. Lifting something over 2 pounds is a challenge for her. She's also very emotionally weak- as a result of being extremely sheltered as a child, she can't recognize toxic people and rarely holds any grudges. Also, her self esteem is extremely fragile, she doesn't let anyone point out her flaws, without her feeling insulted and deeply offended. In addition, she doesn't have a lot of social skills due to being cast out at school in the past.
Bean is physically weak and very easily spooked. He would be absolutely steamrollered in combat.
Brooks isn't as weak but is even worse at handling fighting.
Oh jeez if we're talking weak, it' be these two. Jude loves pretending he's hot shit but honestly, he's just a manipulative ass gifted with a smooth tongue to get others into his bed. Welkin doesn't even have that, his self-confidence is down in the dumps and gets bullied all the time.
They don't have any special powers in a world of beings with supernatural abilities nor physical strength and their health is rather shitty from being stitched together. Good thing they somehow got a job though but that's all that they've got going for them!
Poor Tim would start crying and trying to run away from a single person even if they aren’t trying to do anything bad to him, especially if they happen to be an adult or look like one. He has had quite a few panic attacks and frequently has trouble breathing due to his asthma. However, sometimes during a panic attack he will be too distracted by the fear to use the inhaler, so that’s a recipe for disaster right there. Besides a small pocket knife, there’s not much he’ll be able to do to you to beat you in a fight. Heck, he likely won’t want to hurt you in the first place. He’s weak physically and emotionally, though, it mostly isn’t his fault. He just doesn’t have the best parents in the world.
Benny’s a bit of a coward, and he can’t really fight, like, at all. His strategy is to run away or, if he has to, just try to get on top of his opponent and pull their hair back or something. If he has a friend with him, there’s a chance he’ll jump in front of them if they’re being attacked so that he can take the attack instead of them, but it’s not likely he’ll have the chance to do so, since literally all of his friends are more capable of fighting than he is, even the shyest one, Lucas. Lucas is kinda surprising, actually... you’d think he’d be the least capable of fighting, but he has a few tricks up his sleeve, namely deception. Benny’s been good at that too, but if he’s shoved into a fight? Naw, he doesn’t want to get beaten to a pulp. He’s fine with running away and hiding.
Like Tim, Tristan is scared of people, and even though his magic is pretty good, he’ll likely try to run away or curl up into a ball instead of fighting back. He spends a lot of time shaking, stuttering and/or crying. Poor boy just needs a hug.
COWARD!! he talks a big game and likes to play the role of Fussy Diva Star but even with the chance of him getting a donkey kick in on you, the likelihood is much higher that youll just kick his ass lol. the soft angelic delicacy he gets hired for isnt a ruse. crumple him up like a paper napkin and dunk him in the trash.
i have a lot of weak character aha, but charm probably takes the cake, if only because a lot of her initial growth comes from her trying to become stronger. she's really pretty average in most respects, except for her rather unique ability to fly (or, at least, that's how she sees herself)
Haha... Cain is very pathetic and useless, I think that's why he's my favorite. (He's also a huge coward.)
Pffft my OC 20 would probably do badly in a fight, in the strength area. I mean, she's been couped up in a lab her whole life. She would be able to analyse the enemy's weaknesses though
I've shown off Zekiel before but he suits this thread perfectly
Zekiel is extremely physically weak, pretty much anyone can take him out with just a punch so need be, so he preplans stuff and usually thinks two steps ahead of his opponent, he also uses his robotics knowledge to create useful tools in these plans
