I have some other ideas for a semblance as well.

One, I call it Soul Spear, for lack of a better name at the moment. It would basically allow the formation of weapons created out of aura, which would fade out immediately after use/impact. The character using this would have a bow (possible doubling as a pair of chained blades) as a weapon, using the semblance to create arrows (infinite quiver!) and could create a very temporary sword, shield, or spear as needed. The main drawback would be the drain on one's aura, of course, but a weapon made from one's soul would have quite the punch, one hopes. This character would fight in a ranger/support role. As for how the weapons would appear, try to picture a version of the Magic Blade the mage Inquisitor can use in Dragon Age Inquisition if you spec for Knight Enchanter, minus the corporeal hilt. I'm not entirely certain how this would work, given that he/she would essential be chucking bits of their soul all over the place.

Another idea: Hypnosis, or Siren's Song. This semblance would grant the user the ability to stunlock an opponent with his/her voice, letting him/her finish them off with relative ease. The drawback would be the immense aura drain, focus required, and limited range/target options, and the requirement for audibility. On the other hand, the song could be used to generally disorient a group of enemies (like the Grimm, perhaps) or strengthen allies' auras and bodies. The character would fight in an assassin/bard role. Again, the main weakness of this bard/assassin would be the focus required to maintain the song, largely keeping him/her from doing anything else.
