After a bit more research, I think I can better explain the Spacetime Distortion Semblance and abilities. Rather than altering the perception of other people by distorting the space, it alters the space around you to project yourself a distance when you're actually not there. So the space is altered, masking your physical location and projecting it elsewhere at a distance. My character in question projects himself a few feet away, so people can see him, but he's out of any immediate danger to direct attacks. And given his age, he would have mastered this to a point of using his Semblance with more control.
