Well, I feel bad for triple posting. But it's been almost 24 hours since my last post. The Semblance thread is just dead, I suppose.

Now, I was gonna start with the whole 'reviewing the semblances on the list 5 at a time' thing I proposed earlier this month, since my work schedule has cleared once more and I am no longer collapsing in bed without even eating. Yay me!

My thought is; I'll post the short descriptions of the semblances here, number them 1-5, offer my thoughts on yay or nay, and leave them for a week. Everyone can follow the links in the semblance names to read the full semblance, and then say yay or nay as they like. On Tuesday next week (or thereabouts) I will take out the ones with a majority vote of No and post the next five. Capiche?

So here's lot number 1: My thoughts:
 * 1) Acero by Commander Ghost : Allows the user to focus their aura into his skin causing them to become invincible for a certain period of time.
 * 2) Acidby LMS616: The user can charge their saliva with aura to function as an acid that doesn't work on organic or once organic (like limestone) substances.
 * 3) Acupuncture by SpiritedDreaming : The enemies limbs are numbed with a touch.
 * 4) Adrenaline by Shadowstrike009 : Enhanced version of Aura's sixth sense. As the sense of danger increases, user's abilities increases. (strength, speed, endurance, etc.)
 * 5) Aegisby Steam Gray: The user can create barriers as well as hard shields for protection.
 * 1) It's focused on increasing his durability at the cost of Aura...but that's what aura does anyway. I think it's redundant now, as it seems geared around preventing broken bones and bruises and actual injuries, which is all stuff that aura does anyway. Verdict: No
 * 2) It's fine, acid spit is a pretty standard power and not something that I have an issue with. Verdict: Yes
 * 3) This one is mine, and is actually one of the ones I am adjusting, so I'm going to take it out anyway. I'll post the updated and condensed version soon.
 * 4) ...It's not even a stub. I mean, it barely explains anything. Very vague and generalised. And as Phantom said in the next post, unless it boosts the physical attributes beyond what adrenaline does naturally, it's sort of redundant. Verdict: No
 * 5) I...feel like this is a beefed up version of the aura shield technique which anyone can learn? I mean, I can see the benefit of it, but at the same time it seems redundant again. Verdict: Neutral, but in the case of a tie I'll go with Yes.
