I originally wanted to give my aforementioned guy invisibility, but decided to switch it up a bit. I instead gave him a Semblance that's capable of suppressing an opponent's ability to perceive him through any sense, not just sight, but the effect isn't perfect (perceptive enough folks can still find him if they focus hard enough), and he can usually only do one sense at a time. In this way it's both superior to pure invisibility and inferior at the same time, making it similar while also a distinctly different ability.

Even THAT'S not entirely original, as Phantom and a few others have done similar Semblances as well. Semblances that allow the user to hide from detection aren't OP per say (so long as it's not COMPLETE, perfect invisibility without flaws), but invisibility is such a widely-recognized and useful ability that such Semblances are common as all f*ck.
