After looking through all of this a second time, it seems pretty clear to me that
Merly and
Roma need profiles of their own on this wiki. And frankly,
Captain Britia should get one too. I don't know if I feel comfortable chain scaling through so many characters that we do not have properly indexed. All three characters have a long and confusing history, and I'm earnest when I say that there might actually be some multiversal levels of power at play here. We just need somebody knowledgeable in their history with a solid understanding of wiki standards to write something up for us with the proper justifications. Or somebody with a lot of time on their hands and access to a large number of comics. Either one will do.
So here is what I propose:
Storm Empowered By Worship can be scaled from independent feats performed by people she has fought directly, but she cannot be chain scaled to
Roma or
Merly until we have standards for those two that have been accepted and formalized among the larger wiki community.
And on the note of scaling to
Adversary, I finally found the comic in which he faced off against an empowered
Storm. Here is a link.
Ultimately, I'll leave it up to Ant as to whether he wants to accept this or not, but now that I've gotten a chance to see the feat myself, I certainly would
not scale this to
Low 2-C. There is nothing in the comic to suggest that
Adversary is operating
anywhere near his classic power levels.
First of all, I'd like to remind any evaluating eyes that this story was published in mid-2018, and
Adversary's universe level feat occurred in 1988. That's a heck of a lot of time to pass without any comparable showings.
Secondly, during this particular appearance,
Adversary is
clearly injured and momentarily restrained by Zawavari,
he is troubled by Shuri for a short period, and
Black Panther straight up claims that
Adversary t
rapped storm in a rock slide to induce her claustrophobia because he considers her a threat . You see, here's the thing.
Adversary had no reason to know
Storm could be empowered by worship in this story, which means his assessment of her threat level had to be
entirely based off of his past experiences with her. In fact,
Black Panther even
suggests as much . So if
Adversary was incapacitating
Storm solely out of a fear that
her standard power levels would make her a threat, then there's no way he was being treated
anywhere near Low 2-C in this story. Sure enough, there are no
Low 2-C feats throughout the entirety of this comic, and
Storm's "battle" with him is
a single lightning strike that knocks him into a portal to BFR.
Like I said, you can do what you want with this information at the end of the day. I'm still open to
Roma and
Merly being multiversal if given the proper feats. But in my opinion? Storm shouldn't even
approach tier
2, no matter
what she's being empowered by here.
