How do you simplify a life story?:

Quite simply, you show as little of it as necessary. Why are "origin stories so common in fiction? Because they simplify the myth.

Again, you only need one power in his semblance, Dionysus has worn many hats and has varying abilities, choose 1 and stick with it, if a visual tick exists you can give it to him like Ruby's roses or Yang's hair that's fine, but stick with one operational, the other visual.
