Our system would be a lot easier to expend to new places though, and could probably handle larger volumes of traffic.

We might have the DA open up safe areas inside of the alleys, allowing normal people to use alleytravel to get between cities (not actually confirmed yet).

Could you use magic to enter them? Like use a teleportation power to send opponents into them?

Do you mean that being cold triggers her weakness, or people making her think of being cold?

Also, how would this work for characters who's powers aren't depended on magic, like Kandra, genetic manipulated beings, power armor, things like that. Also, this sounds a bit like Steddings.

It doesn't seem like he can actually manipulate other objects though, except for leaching their energy. Also, what's considered a state of null kinetic energy? Is it when the object moves at the same speed as the surface of the earth? Also, what is the purest frequency of green?

Perhaps start brainstorming/writing up stuff for during the timeskip? that's what I'm currently doing.

I'd suggest starting out by limiting the first ability to non-automatic weapons first, since being able to keep firing SMGs or assault rifles into a crowd all day long gets op very quickly as well.

It would also give what amounts to limited precognition if the always hitting works by automatically aiming in the right direction. This is because you need to lead the target for long range shots, and generally have a delay of at least seconds between firing and hitting, so you'd know where your target is going to be in a few seconds.

Honor spren don't care much about justice I think. I think they care more about protecting people.

So what happens if you give him a machine gun?

Alright, thanks for the assessment.

Correct, though the personality is different. As for power level, compared to the actual character it's somewhere around the same level as in the show, so you won't get anything at the level of what she reaches in/after book 5.

Perhaps it would be better to just establish basic limits to how strong the army can be, and then decide on the limits as an in character type thing?

Sure, as long as they aren't too strong.

In this case it would be balanced out by the fact that using more abilities, or stronger ones, is more difficult, and makes her run out of energy much quicker. So in case of the unicorn, using all those abilities at full strength would probably knock her out in about 20 seconds, especially because of her low amount of experience with them, and would leave her helpless for about a week.

I decided to create a second character. I'm not too sure about their ability though, given that it's an Epic ability, and I'm not that good at grading them. Let's see if anyone can spot who this character is a reference to.

@Archer, can you mark KoTiel down as deceased? Also, I've created an adjusted version of KanMien's profile with increased weaknesses.

KoTiel ran through the hallways, Trying to follow Dwig. After a few turns they slowed down, though. "Guess I lost him," they said to themselves. Continuing to walk, they reached a larger, open room. Just as they walked through it, they saw a number of chaos marines enter through another door. "Ah, rust," they said, while the marines charged at them. The front one hit them away, hurling them towards the wall. Smacking against the wall, KoTiel leaned against it, dazed, while the marine rushed forward again, intending to finish them off. KoTiel tapped zinc, getting just enough awareness back to see the marine, and dropped to the ground, dodging under the fist. Creating some distance, they started preparing themselves. Taking a stance, they started channeling the Dor into their bones, and slowly started burning their zinc, and felt their thoughts speed up, world slowing down. At the same time, the marines surrounding them rushed forwards, intent on killing them. Inhale. KoTiel saw the marines, knew how they moved. Why wouldn't they move that way? After examining all possibilities, it was the only one that worked. Exhale. They moved in between the arms, the punches, and moved towards one of the marines, punching their chest, fist moving with unnatural speed. The armor block it, cracking, but not breaking. They kept moving, dodging fists, tackles, kicks, hitting marines on their armor. The whole time, they shifted their flesh around, keeping their body moving as fast as possible. "Faster," they thought, as they dodged a punch by a hair's breadth. "Faster." They increased the amount of Dor they channeled, their bones growing hot. They turned, punching a marine on their breastplate, breaking through it, smashing their chest. They moved around, trying to calculate the movements of the rest of the marines. They increased the burn of their zinc, flaring it, until the world stood still, and they calculate everything, moving between the marines, untouched, always finding the weak-spots in their their armor, destroying it as they danced among them. Increasing the amount of Dor they used, they killed a second marine, and a third, always moving at impossible speeds, with impossible strength, not even noticing the burning from their bones. their mind went blank, and they fell to the ground. The Dor vanished from their bones, now brittle, and all strength faded from their body. Their zinc faded out, not because their stores ran out, but because their powers had faded out. Without it, their mind felt dull, blank. One of the marines put his boot through their chest, and they stopped moving. Slowly, KoTiel crawled along the ground, trying to get into the alley. There, they collapsed. "It's getting dark," they thought. "Where is KanMien? It's been so long, they should have been here already." They looked up to the sky, seeing the sun. "I see," they thought. "I'm dying." They thought back, thinking about their life, when they first came to being in the Homeland, their mentor, how she had disappeared, and how they met again after the Catacendre. Coming to the alleys, and finding the Dark Alley, their mind skipping over how they got inducted, their loyalty spike working even now. They thought of KanMien, how they felt when they created them, and they smiled. They felt the blood leaving their body, and wrote something on the ground. Smiling, they stopped moving, KanMien ran through the alleys, hoping that they weren't too late. They had received KoTiel's message while getting back from the wedding, and immediately hurried towards their location. Rounding the corner, they saw a body lying on the ground, fleshing dripping off a disintegrating skeleton. "No, no, no, no, no," they said, anxiously. They saw the shapes in the bone, and the spikes coming out of their body, and knew they were looking at KoTiel. Sinking to their knees besides them, they looked him over. Silently, they took his spikes, two copper spikes coming apart as they touched them, three other spikes remaining, a brass and a bronze spike, warped, as if heated for too long, and a single spike they couldn't identify, which slowly crumbled as well. They palmed the two remaining spikes, and looked over to what remained of their hand, and saw a message written in blood. When they came back, they went to their room, and stored away the spikes in a vial of blood, and went to bed. Lying there, they slowly started crying, still thinking about KoTiel's last message for them: "KanMien, be yourself."
