Thanks to the companion book, it's now pretty much confirmed that Tyrian's venom and Ilia's ability to change her colours aren't their real semblances but instead just part of their biology/Faunus trait (they called them special abilities instead of semblances). This means that we are yet to see what their "true superpowers" are. So since we are likely to see at least one of them in next volume, how about little speculation what their semblances could be.

Tyrian: Obviously insane, sadistic and unpredictable person. Without Neo and Emerald, I would guess that his semblance could be able related to hallucinations, but I don't think they will give us three characters with so similar powers. Maybe he could be able to inrease pain or has power similar to Maria that let's him to predict attacks (he was able to block Ruby's shots)

Ilia: Her ability to change colour fits her well already so it not being her semblance was a bit of a bummer. Perhaps she is yet to unlock it and her "true" ability will allow her change others' colours as well or turn completelly invisible or something likel that. The only other opinion I can think of is something related to electricity.

On the side note. Do you think that thes "double semblances" (poison, changing colours, advanced hearing) make Faunus the superiour species compared to humans?
