Player: Mon Character: Makani Kapule Reason for Echo: He'll be getting into a fight/scrap/encounter with the Blood Keys. Probably in the clinic log. Type and tier: Tier 1, Ability. What is returned: (Warning: Classpect Headcanon) Heirs, as a role, have the unique ability to embody their aspect on a singular level. (Note: Headcanon Ends Here) For John, the Heir of Breath, this means he canliterallybecomethewind. This affords all the benefits you would expect it to. John is shown to essentially be able to free roam and avoid detection by both a godlike Super Fish Hitler and his brainwashed half-omniscent space-controlling dog-sister (long story). It's shown that John has pretty much complete control over this, and he can essentially go anywhere that there's a path for air to flow into, be it through vents or otherwise. It's also a handy dodge against threats of bodily harm (read as: stabs)
Obviously, this is a SUPER KINDA GAMEBREAKERY POWER in a game about stealth and infiltration, but luckily I planned for this, since Mac still only has Stage 1 of his Wind Manipulation back (subconscious, low power-control). In this form, Becoming The Wind is basically only useful in the example above: Dodging Shit, and it's going to be more reflexive than anything else (think making someone flinch, or scaring the bajezus out of them). He will reform almost immediately roughly a foot or two away from where he was standing, in what would be the most likely direction you would actually be trying to dodge. (So if someone did scare the bajezus out of him, he would phase out, and then phase in probably a foot back from whatever scared him.) Obviously, overpowering him or basically just straight up knocking him upside the head are still fair game, since he'll only really flinch -once- before getting used to a fight or something along those lines. (And that's only if he notices you.)
So an incredibly useful power will basically only be useful to laugh at Mac as he poofs in and out of existence! 8V (for now)
