Your description of him insufficiently warrants his participation in Luthor's cabal as a necessity.<br/><br/>You failed to adequately describe the limits on his power (raising questions about the necessity of taking a side) or make him a formidable but still beatable foe for a top-tier League fighter.<br/><br/>Then him playing games and being like "I'm too good for this" doesn't make sense. Either he needs them or he doesn't. The Luthor League doesn't need him, they just want him. There is an imbalance in the relationship there but it's undefined exactly what his position is as a result because of how vague you've left him.<br/><br/>Your failure to adequately describe...wait, I already said that. But the point still stands.<br/> <br/><br/>There are a lot of issues to address so if you are able to do so, I will change my position on the matter. There are a few more to follow, as well:<br/><br/>This raises serious concerns for me so would it be possible for you to describe this in terms that are a little less vague about the extent of this? You can't tell me this shouldn't give someone unfamiliar with the character pause to wonder what limits there are.<br/><br/>A character like that basically makes every other character a pawn in its game. If that's the story, fine, but if it's not the intended plot from the outset, their participation is just as I described before.<br/><br/>I'm not trying to be overly critical but a natural limit on a certain ability isn't actually a weakness. Superman can't travel at the speed of light but that's not considered a weakness. And that first one is meaningless if no one else in the game is capable of wielding it. If someone more powerful than Superman by several magnitudes doesn't have an abundant source of their own brand of Kryptonite around, what exactly is the purpose of being adversarial when there is no way whatsoever to stop them?<br/><br/>What would help with this, a great deal, is a specific example of what could cause harm and, even more, the rate at which his power is draining, as well as the level to which he's been drained at the start so we can project how long until he becomes not entirely untouchable.<br/><br/>I tried as best I could to avoid being snarky despite initially perceiving the response as a tad bit so.<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/><br/>Frankly, Mathim, I didn't ask for a critique on my character sheet, and nor is it your place to do so...<em>in public.</em>If you want to discuss this, then maybe we should do it in PM's rather than you raking me over the coals in the publicly viewable OOC.
