Makes me wonder if Kuhaku's a bit overpowered. I tried making him as balanced as I could in my mind...I need constructive criticism on him now.

Well, he's pretty big, he's got great agility as well as good strength and durability. He can cause enemies to hallucinate or go deaf from their own effort noises while mitigating his own pain at the same time--and that's if he's not invisible. He wields a sword and shield when playing defensively and a huge axe when going in for the kill.

Honestly I'd have to say he's a little overpowered. But honestly I think that's kinda the point of RWBY characters. Everyone is strong, fast, and can take punishment. To specialize in a role (like bruiser), you have to amp up the implausibility to almost insane levels, like Yang lifting a massive stereo speaker easily or demolishing a damaged mech with with one punch. Thing is, since Kuhaku isn't specialized (self-proclaimed jack of all trades) he's good at everything. His biggest weakness isn't his powers; it's himself, mainly the fact that he received the damage ignored after using his semblance and that he is somewhat reckless.

Let me know if I am wrong.
