Hmm, I think that Keanu's weaknesses are very similar to his strengths. He sees the good in everything, the beauty in everything and thus leaves himself open to a lot of ugly happening when things aren't quite as good and beautiful as it seems to him.
He's also VERY young in godly terms. Not even a toddler, really. So he's got that combination of extreme vulnerability and ridiculous ability to bounce back that all really little kids have.
Then throw in that he became a god by sacrificing himself, literally taking a death spell, for his friend and First Follower Prince Cyrille and, well, there are distinct possibilities that Keanu will not make it to godly adulthood because he'll do something stupid to save someone and ouch.
But I haven't gotten to write that story yet. Right now I'm working on a different one where Xun, the leader of Keanu's little group of god-killers, has to face that she can't save everyone by charging straight in. Sometimes you have to be sneaky and careful and even then you might not win.
