What if they possess no bones?
How pedantic
can you introduce characters who are above the tier cap but only act indirectly?

Yeah, tier increase is hardly proportional, 10 tier 1's are no where near the level of one tier 10. At lower tiers however it's more accurate.
If your clones are a faction, they should be just as strong as the other 'basic troops' that the other factions have, which I wouldn't put past tier 2.

Fair enough. However yes, I'm fairly certain this is the IC for the Nexus itself. Skallagrim could probably say for sure though.

My backstory has him appear IN the Nexus itself.
'Nexus: connection or series of connections linking two or more things.'
Then post in the Nexus, and go where you want. I'm sure if you show up there Skallagrim will send you on your merry way.
Anyway, I'm going to assume that as your character is using cloaking, but also using tech to scout my character out, he can sense her presence to a roughly accurate location. I'll probably make my post on this assumption, and just make some very rudimentary analysis of your characters technology before getting on with chatting or whatever, I'll be sure to include this spirit... thingy, is resisting my attempts, hence why my analysis will be no more or less effective than your own.

ffs... then what the hell am I supposed to do with Talon?
Uh, place him in one of the many worlds available.

Also I mean like a faction opposing them. Hence faction on faction war, hmmmkk.
Well, I think main characters are more of concern to Skallagrim then factions fabricated out of thin air, its ultimately the 'heroes' who do the fighting in Arena Khan.
Perhaps, but I think my characters inherent ability is more than powerful enough to match, and defeat, a passive spirit, which can only be either equipment or an NPC, neither are as powerful as a main character.
This is a give and take situation here, if you expect to be able to detect my character with anything other than your naked eyes, and therefore learn anything other than a Victorian man with a satchel and possibly a pistol is approaching you, then your character is unwittingly compromising them self to his ability. Unfortunately, my character is pretty much immune to viruses worms and subterfuge, as I stated his mind and his Soul Crystal are magical in nature, not technological. His ability just allows him to infuse technology with his magic and take control of it. Though the spirit can resist this with its own magic, he will also be able to detect that happening as well.
You have to remember, my character is making no effort to hide but he is aware that a saboteur of significant skill is present, where-as your character can only assume what he's capable of from some shooting earlier. So, hiding from my character while also detecting him and also learning things is not possible, you can do maybe two at most, not all three.

The Clockwork Man -is- opposing the Angar-Ryllans in a very round-about way, though he only has a basic knowledge of them. That's why he's on Mystique. Though I'll probably have him join a more formidable opposition in the future if I conclude with the Mystan story arc.
Yeah, my characters power is Technomancy, so he can seize control of opponents technology or learn what it can do, in a process of > basic function/very close proximity effect (which is how he blocks its ability to sense his internals.) > Greater function > Minor control > Complete knowledge > Complete control.
And no, being surrounded by technology isn't really going to be an obstacle to a powerful Technomancer. You wouldn't even expect a hydromancer to have difficulty seperating out one section of water from another, because they need an innate knowledge of the 'element' they manipulate. Technology is very individual and varied, so your own signature would be very visible to him because its so easy to separate.
That's just the fairest way to put what I essentially said was taking control of technology into a tier system, the first tier will be accessed in my first post (where I'll also explain how he's able to block the scanning.) I'm asking what degree my character can sense your tech (or what defenses it has from his Technomancy.)
