More notes.
BUFFS
You do not need the buff proficiency to buff yourself. It's only for buffing others.
However, you can't make moves that buff all your other moves, unless it's part of the move itself or a Super Utility. These things get judged on a case-by-case basis, as do all Super Utilities - we might start to better delineate things down the line.
Some GENERAL RULES
We're tamping down on 'removing someone from a fight', as a rule. Mainly because, as a player, this is not a fun mechanic. Delaying someone from chasing you by freezing them? Fine! But things like possessing a character, forcing them to fuse with you, etcetera - those aren't fun mechanics as the fused character, and completely remove their agency as a writer. This is TOTALLY FINE if agreed with OOC, as a personal story, for fodder purposes etcetera.
If possession or mind control takes place for less than the duration of a single post, it's possible, but still should be downsided appropriately (with SP or otherwise). Make someone slap their friend? Cool. Take over their entire mind? Ehh .... it's probably not gonna fly, for many reasons related to RPing itself, but you can try - and it better be approved by the owner of the character themselves.

Curious about me and the characters I play? See the 'Staff' page! See also the rosters for my characters Samus Aran or Enel if you'd like to see examples of well-formatted rosters. Hope you enjoy the Omniverse!
