My Semblance would be the ability to absorb the Semblances of others. But it is only if they are near me, and I cannot keep it forever.

So like, if I was fighting near, let's say Blake, I could absorb her Semblance to make shadow clones and use it myself. She could still be able to do it, I cannot rid them of thei Semblance, I only copy it to use it myself. But once she gets out of the range I need to absorb powers, I lose the ablilty to do what she can. The range is about 100 feet around, and if there are multiple people around me, I could absorb all of their powers, but only use one at a time. This is why I would hate fighting alone, since with no one around I would have no power.

If the Semblance is one that I have not absorbed before, then I have to somehow come in contact with the person to absorb their Semblance. If it is a person I have absorbed from before, then as soon as they come into the range I can use their power, without having to come in contact to absorb it again.
