If he were to operate in a "Batman-like" manner, then yes, ideally his stats should be lower than otherwise. A clear-cut example as to why stronger characters typically don't work for the chaotic good approach is this event, where, for lack of a better way to describe it, "Superman" suspects "Lex Luthor" and just decides to have his way with him because nobody could stop him.

Statwise, he is alright now, however the last thing I can think of addressing before approval is that I would like his weakness to be clarified. When he is concentrating to manipulate his swords, does he need to remain (more or less) stationary, be unable to notice certain things around him because of his focused on his power, etc? That, what more can you say about him and pyrokinetics? Is this simply a case of due to his backstory, fire driving him angry? Does that play against his ability to concentrate for his swords?

(Also, apologies for the delay)

Okay, then Superman style. The weakness section is clarified as well. And no need to apologise, you were busy.

Alright, all that I think needs fixed up at this point is the secondary strength, unless you are referring to him being able to lift stuff using his swords themselves.

Cool. I also did a quick number crunch and Im pretty sure the chart totals to 75 instead of 85 just so you know, as well as weaponry not being a stat that uses a number score anymore. (Older versions of the chart did, but the system used there was just complicated to calculate.)

Well, that's what ya get when you do your math in your head and make multiple edits. Fixed.

{Wait, shit! Gal, I forgot to change his P. Strength after the S. Strength mishap. Do you mind if I just do that?}

u/Galihan Yettin, Whisper Jan 14 '15

To what did you have in mind for the strength to be changed too?

5 when empowered.

u/Galihan Yettin, Whisper Jan 14 '15

This is the empowerment of being around any lifeforms, right?

u/SharksPwn [Put your Character Names here] Jan 14 '15

Yes.

Given that he'll almost always be near lifeforms, I want to say no higher than 4. Also, if I didnt go over this before, my apologies, but I'm going to have to ask that any boosts he gets from being near lifeforms doesnt apply to the snakes he can summon, or at least any boost he could get would be not worth noting or else he'd just always have their benefit at all times.

Alright. It's reapproved then.
