Right. So this semblance basically slows the targets reactions because they aren't processing what they've seen in time? Thanks for clearing that up for me. I was pretty sure it was de-sync, I just went on for comedic effect.

But that description isn't quite right (though that's what I'll change it to if I need to). She can cause her target's reaction time to slow, yes, but it's more than that. Sight is a crucial sense to determining our place in space. I'll give you two examples for what this Semblance can do; one with the eyes 'slowed' and one with the eyes 'sped up'.


 * If the target's eyes are slowed and they try to run forward, they will physically see their bodies run forward, before their sight follows, as if they were following themselves a second behind. Hence the name, "Out of Body".


 * With the eyes sped up, the Semblance affects the eyes and the neuron pathways in the body. It will look to the target in every way like they ran forward, but their body won't have moved. It will look as though they are so many seconds (one, three, or five seconds) behind what's acutally happening in battle.

Is that too overpowered? Now that it's written out like that, that second ability seems pretty overpowered. I'm a bad judge of that myself, so I leave it to you guys. IF THIS IS OP, I'll change it that second power into a reaction-time-altering ability, there's no need to bite my head off...

Also, if you have any ideas for a Fox Faunus Semblance, please share, I'm open to new ideas at this point.
