If the field of negative emotions is evenly distributed around a certain point, then the Grimm have no reason to attack each other over any object in the area. If the negative emotions cause people to compound that negative energy, then the Grimm will attack the people.  The only feasible way I can see that is if the user makes negative emotions cluster around the Grimm, which would be too precise to be a tier two ability.''

I'm not too sure of this myself; was thinking it either concentrates on living objects, which would make it just as dangerous for team members, while dissipating slightly into the soil and atmosphere, etc, or simply having so much concentrated negative energy would overwhelm whatever senses have them drawn to fear, etc. Suddenly everything around them is afraid, causing them to lash out at any movement.

'' How would you solidify emotions?

Does the user's aura just cause massive amounts of despair and pain on contact? ''

The users semblance is like a flame of psychic negative energy. Being hit with it doesn't cause one to be overcome with fear and hopelessness, more feels like being seared by fire, without any actual physical damage. All in all it makes at best a moderate weapon and would use aura up fast if used like a psychic flamethrower. It does however saturate a target with more negative energy, so even if they don't feel the dread, it still attracts grimm.

Is your OC okay?
