@ Melon:
John Henry is acceptable as is, I'll add him to the list.

@Tharraleos:
The only real question I have about his Pride Empowerment:
Is this empowerment the source of his power, or does it increase his power? The former is fine, the latter is not acceptable.

That's a good way to have telepathy, I like it.

The elemental manipulation is orderly and not floaty at all, I like it.

Is the Cross Halberd shaped like this:


or this

Firstly, I apologize about the length assuming it's an issue. Having the character for nearly two years has allowed me to maximize his profile. Now, to answer your questions in order.

As it stands, Pride Empowerment is the source of his power to put it simply. After such a long time with the power, he has pretty much allowed it to consume it and pretty much relies on it, pridefully of course.

I'm happy to hear his array of powers is acceptable. I was contemplating removing all but the Pride Empowerment for the sake of simplicity, but I'm glad to know that may not be the case.

Finally, for his weapon. Inspired by the similarly shaped weapon from the Dynasty Warriors games (where I see you got those pictures from the wiki), Tharraleos' takes more inspiration from the latter. Specifically, it looks like this

Tharraleos Polemistis said I was contemplating removing all but the Pride Empowerment for the sake of simplicity,

That would be completely counter-productive, as pride empowerment is the thing that makes him sort of hard to balance. No deletion should be necessary though, if all abilities are properly scaled.

And well, more isn't always better. I imagine a lot of people would be scared away from a CS of such size, which is a shame considering the amount of effort you probably put into it. A more condensed version would probably do you better.

Pfft if you didn't have a character sheet of such length after a few years of constant play I'd be worried. Skallagrim my main character since, well forever, is a long sheet and this doesn't even fully account for the history of his fights and the wars he has been engaged in on a number of sites. I would say break up the blocks into chunks with a line or two between each block so it is easier to digest.

Dark, really dark. I like it.

My humble commentary:
- He’s definitely tier 5, as he can lift more than 10 tons
- I’ve said it many times already and I will again: diamond isn’t strong at all. You hit it with a hammer, it shatters. Unless you give a different descriptor, we’ll be forced to assume the ice is in fact not all that strong.
- Besides, can you put the ice on people? And a number on the temperature would be nice. For all we know it could be anywhere from -5 to -270 C.
- I assume allies without a brain are unrevivable?
- How fast do his bones restore? Matter of seconds, minutes, hours?

his bones regenerate in seconds, and diamond is only brittle if you cause it to cleave along the face, which is why his gemstone has a description to stop it from doing so, his ice doesn't. Yes he can put ice on people, and yes if they don't have a brain they cant be revived. ill find a temperature on the ice and put it in.

Then i'm afraid i must deem him overpowered. He's essentially silver age Wolverine unless you attack his only weakness, which you pretty much have to know about to do. Plus, i can't even begin to estimate what kind of power it'd take to break an object with 10 times the resilience of diamond that is immune to surface fracturing. Especially since "stops it from suffering from fracturing along the faces" is an absolute.

^ Pretty much what Lalliman said. Your phylactery can't be indestructible, that's what makes a Lich balanced.

As well, regeneration that fast is ridiculous.

You're Deadpool if Deadpool was undead, could summon stuff, and unkillable.

Deadpool is unkillable. He's cursed to be unable to ever enter Death's realm. Though this is neither here nor there, and I agree with Lalliman (and LeeRoy). Passive regen that fast is crazy ridiculous (coming back from ash in only a few seconds? Come on, man), especially when combined with his overall durability.

allright weakened the diamond to be more destroyable, and lets say minutes for regeneration? I mean if he is tier 5 all his other stats are at the extremely weak end he can barely lift more than a tier 4 and is seriously slower than even a tier 3. His zombie at tier 5 could likely do very little to hurt a competitor of equal strength, and his ice I situational and able to be broken.

Goes a long way. It still says "stops it from fracturing along the faces" though. Seeing as a diamond is composed of a single giant molecule, i think causing internal damage without shattering the outside may be physically impossible. Correct me if i'm wrong, anyone who knows better.

It can still be destroyedbut I don't want someone to nick it and he auto dies it needs to be a decently strong attack

Then say "makes it resistant to fracturing along the faces" instead of outright saying it can't be done.

You can put that in, mention that the core of the crystal needs to be damaged for it to kill him.

Alrighty. It seems I've been accepted. Thank you all so much for your time and effort going through that wall of text. I've been told by many breaking down the long paragraphs into smaller ones would make things easier, but I find it difficult to do so with how much of a protectionist I can be at times.

Now , I presume I'm free to start wherever I please. Is there any place in particular I begin, or just wherever finds my interest?
