Time isn't distorted on a personal level. The time distortion is little more than a plot device, it has no direct impact on battles.

I think it needs to be asked, can he blur in short bursts or does he have to keep going until exhausted once he starts?

I edited it, he can turn it off whenever he wants, it is in my sheet.
Edit: Yes, he can blur in short bursts. That is usually used for showing off, though.

It may pass slower or faster in one place relative to another, but from your own perspective it always goes at normal speed.

Well, i asked because that raises kind of a problem. Now that blurring can deactivate at will, it's for all intents and purposes just his version of sprinting, which would place him in tier 4 as he can go faster than the max of tier 3. In fact, it could be argued that that was the case all along, since speed is speed regardless of what causes it. I'm not sure if an ability that temporarily boosts someone's speed should be counted towards the speed limit, as i don't think we've had a character do that here before. I can only assume it does though.

Now, i think what you need to do is decide whether you wanna be tier 3 or tier 4 and adapt yourself accordingly. If you're patient, you may also just wait for LeeRoy's judgement because i find myself becoming increasingly confused about the matter the more i think about it.

I would tell you to have a look at Adrian's CS for an example of a tier 3, but i still think his stated level of speed is very questionable, which doesn't help the matter at hand. In fact, i feel that needs to be brought up again. How fast would you say that " twenty times as fast as a normal man" is, LeeRoy?

Well, blurring as mentioned drains his stamina very quickly, so it can't just be used constantly or it will just kill him. If it were used constantly then his heart would more or less beat so fast it bursts. It isn't something you can just do because you feel like it.
Edit: He uses it if he needs to get somewhere fast or match the speed of an opponent, otherwise he just runs normally.

20 times the speed of a normal human is roughly 100-140 mph.

I know the limitations, i just don't quite know how the rules handle that.

Humans run at 5 miles per hour? We're talking about max speed here, so sprinting. To test it out, i just sprinted what according to google maps is 100 meters, and took 21 seconds to do it. That means i ran a little over 10 mph on average, and i'm not in good condition at all. Unless i'm way fitter than i think i am, that'd mean Andrian's sprinting speed is at least 200 mph.

*sigh* Anyways, I'm just gonna shut up now and let LeeRoy handle this, before i unnecessarily confuse you.

Alright Blooper, I'll start with yours since it's the easiest and I'm too tired right now for extensive reading :P

First: I'm not comfortable approving an ability that lets a character move faster than the max for their stated tier, even temporarily. Until or unless LeeRoy decides an ability like that would be okay, I'm going to have to say no to the 400 mph blurring in tier 3.

Second: What exactly does extreme stealth do?

Third: Could you elaborate on the properties of the bo staff?

Fourth: The only physical ability of his that you mention is his speed. What about his strength? Durability? Agility and coordination? If his speed comes from the strength of his legs, can he also jump really high? What about his senses (aside from night vision)? Are they heightened like other felines?

Fifth (and this is just more of an observation): If his fur is only half an inch long, he wouldn't have anywhere to hide a medical kit. He could certainly still carry one, but his fur wouldn't be long enough to conceal it.

To his defence, it says "lifting weight: 875 lb" above his tier.

Wait, Blooper, you changed titanium to Tallyrian crystal? Are we supposed to know what that is?

In case anyone missed it: due to LeeRoy's absence Schradinger is now authorized to accept characters. I believe Jin, Tharraleos and Raiu still need to be accepted. I'll get to pre-reviewing those soon. Am i missing any, besides Claws?

Also, whatever became of Gemini? Did Drall withdraw him or did everyone forget about him?

Reminder to LeeRoy: Ethel, Sol and Ido are not on the list of accepted characters yet.

@Vordak, Ido's hider still says WIP. That may be confusing to newcomers.

Excuse me the triple post.

Commentary on Raiu:
- His speed is the maximum of his tier, which means he wouldn’t be allowed to have lightning powers on top of that. Lower it a little, maybe to 500 mph. (The speed of sound is 760 mph.)
- I’m always iffy about lightning, because it moves so fast that it’s for all intents and purposes instant. So his lightning attacks should be rather weak to make up for that. Unfortunately, I know very little of volts and amps, so maybe someone else here can give you a hand with that. Also, as LeeRoy already said, we need a maximum range on this.
- Keep in mind that, although he may have the reflexes to see a bullet coming, most bullets are still faster than him (mach 2 to mach 3), so he can’t dodge them at point blank range. Though he can duck out of the way of the barrel right before it fires, of course.
- Shock pulse: is the electrical charge harmful?
- If he charges an item magnetically, I assume it just starts attracting metal? Can he use it on organic targets? And how strong is the force it exudes? Say, if someone is holding a metal sword and Raiu magnetizes a nearby objects, how much strength would it take not to have the sword pulled from his hands? Also, keep in mind that not all metals respond to magnets. Primarily cobalt, iron and nickel do.
- Isn’t geisteel from Dark Souls? If it behaves different from normal steel (e.g. is stronger), please explain.
- Any sword made of metal can channel electricity. Is that what you meant or is there something more to his twinblade?

Commentary on Jin:
- I see you added the term “orbit” in the precision shot ability. Technically speaking, that’d mean his ship is at least 100 miles above the ground and that the bullet, in order to get from there to ground level in two seconds, moves 180000 mph. Uhh…
- a movement speed on the mech would be good.
- You mention how powerful the photon beam cannon is, but what about the photon beam lasers? I assume they’re weaker, but by how much?
- If the photon lasers and cannon are actual lasers, they move at the speed of light and are thus undodgeable. You should probably slow them down somehow or replace them with something equally cool that moves slower, like a plasma cannon.
- A heat number on the radium bullets would be useful. 2800 F is the temperature at which iron melts, if that’s what you’re going for.
- If one manages to sufficiently damage the X351 power axe, would it cause a nuclear explosion?
- Also, how hot is “super-heated”?
- I still insist that none of the droids individually can be considered tier 2. The betas have guns that can kill any tier 2 in seconds, and they aren’t even glass cannons to make up for it. And the alpha has an axe that can kill tier 2s just by touching them with it, doesn’t even have to be a proper swing. So either adjust the stated tier levels or remove the individual tiers altogether. The real question is what tier the four of them are together. I don’t have time to consider that right now as i gotta get to work, so I or Dinger will get back to you on that.

I'll get back to you too, Tharraleos.

Can you please define strength, agility, and coordination? I was wondering how I should put it since I'm not sure if I should put things like "good" or "fairly bad" etc.

I have finished it until I have clarification on agility and coordination, does lifting weight count as strength?

Yes.

Also, you might want to actualy make im tier 4, as a majority of characters are within this range. But that's just my personal opinion.

As for agility and coordination, just provide an example of his best performance in this category, such as walking rope with easy, reaching to his toes with the elbows, and balancing a dagger on its point. Stuff like that.

I adjusted his speed, now it's only a little higher than the norm of his race.
Edit: He isn't actually a warrior, so this makes it more realistic.

For agility and coordination I just put "About the same as an Olympic gymnast" Since he lives in a race of cat people (More or less) and he runs for most of his life throughout the streets, buildings and rooftops, this shouldn't be that surprising.
