Who does he think he is? The god damn Batman?

That aside, this guy has way too much training for his age. He's, quite simply put, an equivalent to Batman, and practically fully trained, yet he's only 17 years old. Just starting his first year at beacon. I feel the character, beyond personality, doesn't actually have any room for growth here, and he's got a skillset and strength rivalling say, Cinder.

To keep with the Batman references he's clearly alluding to. Batman was, depending on the iteration, anywhere from his mid-20's, to 30 when he finished his training and first donned the cape and cowl. This guy's 17 and already everything Batman started as.

His Semblance, regardless of the limitations put on it, is quite overpowered. A Half-mile no-limits teleport? Within sight means through anything he can see through. Though, ironically that might even mean he can only teleport a foot, given it makes a smoke cloud first.

Also to touch on, that's two separate abilities entirely, giving him essentially two Semblance powers. Little more than we've seen so far, which is one.

We havn't seen anything in the way of other languages in the world of Remnant, everybody speaks the same English, and foreign languages don't exist. So the references to them are a little misplaced.

The whole concept of The Nightmare is simply canon breaking given what we know of Dust and the world of Remnant. Dust tattoos likely don't affect Aura or the users Semblance, and infact are likely very un-usable due to Dust being a finite thing. (It runs out and requires re-fuelling, clothing needs to be imbued and refreshed, weapons reloaded, etc.) There's no true "magic" in Remnant, and nor are there supernatural beings besides the Grimm. There's no force to tap into, nothing of the sort that they're looking for. And an elite unit of Huntsmen/Huntresses specifically *and secretly* brought up to fight them? He's still in-training at Beacon, I'm fairly certain they would have no reason to admit him as he's still a Student.

In the long and short, Rejected
