We start off at level 0 btw :)

As for your character, he seems to be rather powerful for a starting hero. Enhanced reaction speed, durability and an ability that can cut through any material?

Plus a suit that enhances durability seems to be rather strong for someone who is meant to start out at a basic level

Removed the "sharp" edges and natural durability.

The suit only adds very minor resistance, only slightly above normal human.

All I've got is a blade that can cut through any material. That's it. (for level 1 at least)

u/reddy1991 Feb 03 '16

yeah the difference though, a blade is a short melee range weapon, where as the portals could be placed at a decent distance

You do realize I was saying it was a bit much right?

What type of reaction times were you thinking? Because hearing a gun cock and getting a portal up in time can vary wildly in the time it takes to stop the bullet. Depending upon a lot of factors. Maybe think about an actual time stamp for that one. Because as it stands I think a normal human would be able to do that with training. SO it wouldn't really be 'enhanced.' Although now that I think about it that's probably for the best because having more than one 'power' to begin with is kind of OP. Like I said, all I got is a lightsaber (not really but basically a lightsaber).

The way I imagine it, Nexus has an weak, instinctual hyperawarewness of his surroundings, which is how he is able to quickly chose portal placements. His actual speed is regular human, so his reactions could be considered equal to that of someone with years of training. When I was using the gun analogy, I was thinking about this scene from MGS1.

Looks pretty cool! We've pretty much all got just one thing, but we will level up quickly. When you say your super suit gives you mild resistance, are we talking about motorcycle jacket level of resistance? Because I think that would be reasonable.

Also, I've added you to the team Power sub /r/mutantalliance.

u/Stranger-er Feb 02 '16

Yeah, that sounds about right.

Cool! I'd edit that in for clarity.

The awareness piece seems reasonable if Solid Snake is your best analogy.
