First off... I don't like him.

-Really? He can materialize ANYTHING he wants? Doesn't that seem like a bit of an overkill? Even if he can't make anything appear when his hands are closed, or anything bigger than him, it's still a bit too much.
-I'm okay with the healing thing; it isn't uncommon. But when you put in the fact that he can fly, is "100% better than the average human", and can materialize anything INTO HIS HANDS, it's, once more, overkill.

-Now, aside from your overpowered abilities, the demo. It's one large block of words, and it's very unappealing to the eye. Oh, and I will be trying to nitpick this.

All I can say is.. Work on it.

I re-read my story twice and didn't spot those mistakes you have a very good eye! Most of my mistakes were either due to laziness or fatigue. As for the "overkill" part of my character i'll work on it i thought maybe he had enough weaknesses to even everything out though, but i guess he doesn't... How do you suppose i make my writing look for appealing to the eye though? Double space it?

Okay the first big problem I see in your demo is the capital letters. You must NEVER do this in writing, even if a person is screaming or whatever. Instead of doing that, try exaggerating the "says" part.

And to continue with the exaggeration part, I find that you make it to straight forward, try making things more interesting and enticing by (like I said) exaggerating movements.

Now moving from the demo, I think you should limit the materialize ability A LOT. He can simply conjure a nuke bomb in his hands and its over, try maybe explaining that there are only specific objects that he can summon. Like swords or daggers etc etc.

Okay! He can only materialize melee weapons and he must use that weapon for at least a minute before switching!

No one will take you seriously because everything is more complicated than it needs to be, you're compensating lack of originality by adding more words. If anyone can get through all the bullshit it just comes down to as this is a person they won't have any interest in fighting.

"He’s an African American male with a nappy high top fade hes around 6’2 and weighs 159 lbs has big nose, big ears, and big lips has dull red eyes"
I couldn't breath after reading this. You just described a high nigger. 6'2 and weighs 159? Dude he must look like a damn stick then.

I think people are ripping it apart a bit. But in essence, we all write long. If you write a whole piece and it says absolutely nothing, then it was not good even if it was lengthy. Even short pieces can have more impact.

Participate in wrhg. There are other newbies who just joined so challenge one of them and start refining your writing basically.
