I think there may be some issues regarding the blob armor, but I can't imagine his semblance without this aspect. Maybe I can mitigate the effects a bit? Say that only basic weaponary and hand to hand combat is ineffective against his blob armor, but more powerful attacks will find their way connecting? No problem for the solution! I feel it would be easier to explain than using the user's essence.

And on to the Blob armor, I think mitigating the effects would be fine, but not exactly in the way you'te thinking. What if the armor reduces the effectiveness of physical combat, but not to zero. That way punches and kicks would still deal damage, but the effect would be lessened by the armor.

As for the Slasher Villain team, team JSPR, I have 2 characters completed and on the OC thread (from quite a while ago, actually. Geez, was it really May?). The leader, Jason Redwing  based on Jason Voorhees from the Friday the 13th series and Sawyer Tann  who's based on Bubba Sawyer, AKA Leatherface from the Texas Chainsaw Massacre franchise were both finished and put up, before I decided I should finish my main character team before finishing the villains. I also have the Semblance and weapon of another member, based on Candyman from the Candyman franchise. The Semblance causes those afflicted to feel as if they're being stung by bees; an homage to the fact that in the movies, Candyman houses bees in his chest and stomach cavity. He's going to use a pair of Hook Swords, referencing Candyman's hook hand. Naming and balancing the Freddy Kreuger character (Member #4) is proving tricky, as his weapon and his abilities aren't easy to balance in the RWBY-verse, but I'm still working on it.
