[quote=@Phantomlink959] 1)My character Garen is fourth generation, trained his entire life whilst living in the wilderness outside the kingdom and actively fighting Grimm from the time he could use a weapon, not to mention a direct descendant of a living legend. He's a fucking prodigy and couldn't pull that shit off. 2)If it's flow versus believability, take believability. any time one of my characters expends a large amount of aura, they show signs of it, regardless of the flow of the scene. 3)Please show limits clearly and consistently. 4)teams of 4 students, all of which have been shown or stated to be of well above average skill or ability (except Jaune, but he's some sort of tactical genius waiting to happen) 5)Aura is a metered ability, like Mana. it recharges fairly quickly, but Ruby, from empty, takes about a minute to fully recharge (as can be determined by playing the Grimm Eclipse pre-alpha.) 6)Then why the hell would he climb to the top of the highest damned building on campus just to make an entrance? blatant and excessive showoff. When I was originally examining the character, I had concerns about the semblance, as it is extremely specific and, frankly, TOO useful. Now, I've got a couple other characters to reexamine. [/quote] Okay, I understand your concerns, I really like the idea of an aura that is useful for more than just combat, so I made it very specific and useful. The original ability could not be blocked and could utilize all metals, so it has already been nerfed quite a bit. Ferrin originally climb the tower, not to make an entrance. (That was a spur-of-the-moment thing.) He first took off because he felt confined in the airship and wanted some freedom. Then he, recklessly, (like a typical teen and I speak from experience) decided to get a better view. I was also going to make that a spot that he goes to think and maybe have a scene where he meets Ozpin up there and get a talking to. And yes, he has a slight flair for the dramatic.
