Reposted from the previous thread:

A character needn't have used an item as a weapon to make it such in a work where so many liberties are already being taken. If a character is recognized for carrying an umbrella, it makes for the perfect excuse to weaponize it, even if it wasn't a weapon in it's original work. Look at RWBY. RRH never used a scythe, Snow never used a sword, Belle never used a gun, and Gold only broke things by accident and certainly not with her fists. Look at Cardin. Henry Beaufort certainly never hefted a mace. Look at CFVY. No one on that team is known for wielding a weapon. Ren's guns barely allude to Mulan's skill with a bow.

As for semblances, having illusory skills and invisibility on the same team sounds unworkable. How about if Lebrun can project his senses into other rooms? This way, he's still listening in on conversations without people being aware of his presence.

Maybe instead of actually drinking, Edom can manipulate his own Aura so that it becomes intoxicating to those exposed to it. I'm tempted to suggest giving Perry a semblance that tricks people into telling him the truth... you know, because they find him so attractive.
