Tell us what’s happening:

its not passing the second test not mater what i do, i wrote my own code 3 times and thought i was going crazy, then i copy pasted someone elses code to see if it would work but still nothing, i think test number 2 might be broken or im crazy

Your code so far

full_dot = '●'
empty_dot = '○'

def create_character(name,strength,intelligence,charisma):

    if len(name) ==0:
      return "The character should have a name"

    if not isinstance(name, str):
        return("The character name should be a string")
    
    if isinstance(name, str):
        return()
        
    
    if len(name)>10:
       return "The character name is too long"

    if ' ' in name:
      return "The character name should not contain spaces"
    stats = {'STR': strength,'INT': intelligence, 'CHA': charisma}
    for stat in stats.values():
        if not isinstance(stat, int):
            return "All stats should be integers"
    for stat in stats.values():
        if stat < 1:
            return "All stats should be no less than 1"
    for stat in stats.values():
        if stat > 4:
            return "All stats should be no more than 4"
    if sum(stats.values()) != 7 :
        return "The character should start with 7 points"

    character_string = name
    for key in ['STR', 'INT', 'CHA']:
        stat = stats[key]
        character_string += f'\n{key} {full_dot*stat}{empty_dot*(10-stat)}'

    return character_string
create_character('ren', 4, 2, 1)

Welcome to the forum @Ahott !

Does is make sense to check the length of name before you test to make sure name it is a string?

What is this supposed to be doing?

What can you do with this function call to see what your function is returning in the console?

Happy coding!
