Alex Mercer minor addition

[LIFE_OF_KING]

Alex Mercer's profile

Regeneration (Mid-High. Could regenerate from getting incinerated by a nuke's fireball. Is superior to the Supreme Hunter who could easily regenerate from being turned into a puddle of blood)

I don't have problem with Mid-High, but rather how it is used. According to these two threads, Alex regenerated from the nuclear explosion after "at least a few hours", which means that it is something via over time. Therefore, the regeneration in combat must be different. Take for exemple Deadpool's profile:

Regeneration (Mid; Regrew a sword slice midway along his skull, in seconds, and regenerated from decapitation in under 10 minutes and regenerated his head whole, in 13 minutes. Mid-High over time; Regenerated from being reduced to ashes after hours)

So, in summary, should look like this:

Regeneration (Low-High; Is superior to the Supreme Hunter who could regenerate from being turned into a puddle of blood. Mid-High over time. Could regenerate from getting incinerated by a nuke's fireball after hours)

---

Btw, it was agreed that without biomass Alex regenerates more slowly, but for some reason this is not written in the profile. We can perhaps use an example with Supreme Hunter, since at first he could easily regenerate through a puddle of blood, but later he took a long time (Like, he only appears later at the end of the game)

EDIT

Proposal:

Weaknesses: Reminding him of his human life will cause him to relapse into a flashback, paralyzing him (Overcame this at the end of the first game). If he is too low on biomass he will be incapable of maintaining his Evolved form. Can be easily enraged, but has begun avoiding it. The less biomass in his body, the slower his regeneration will be. Comparable to Supreme Hunter in terms of physiology, who can regenerate his entire body from a puddle of blood in mere instants, but when he is drastically damaged and loses his biomass he has difficulty regenerating a hand. Alex only regenerated "instantly" from a massive damage after devouring biomass

It should be written in the weaknesses section as it's quite an important thing to list, his regeneration is finite to a degree since he relies on consuming biomass to do such.

While it may not require much to regenerate like we see with the crow, it's still a fact that he requires it.

The update seems fine to me.

I need to play Prototype... it's collecting dust in my room.

Does something like this work?

EDIT: I actually found this thread about removing the weakness. However previously it was said that Alex must have more biomass than normal to regenerate at least a little, but what I am proposing is to say that the less biomass the slower the regeneration will be, not that he will stop healing forever. One of the supporters of this thread that I posted also mentioned later that without biomass Alex's body regenerates more slowly, so I don't think it is a problem to add the weakness

The weakness text looks fine.

Well, yes, you'd be correct. Alex's regeneration is more or less accelerated by the consumption of biomass, and it isn't as fast as it normally is when he's damaged enough.

The weakness shouldn't have been removed in the first place.

 

[Zamasu_Chan]

I agree with this.

 

[HammerStrikes219]

I agree with this.

Edit: I also did find it dumb to even remove the weakness in the first place.

 

[LIFE_OF_KING]

Bump

Should we also add the scan of Alex absorbing a body without having to weaken the person in the P&A section?

 

[Migue79]

Agreed with the additions.

 

[XSOULOFCINDERX]

Seems Reasonable.

 

[LIFE_OF_KING]

Okay, 4 staff members agreed and it's been over 1 day and no one has shown up to disagree. I'll add the revision

EDIT: Done

 

[Kilgorethecouch]

Would this make the Mid-High shit none combat applicable?

 

[LIFE_OF_KING]

In general, yeah

 

[Sir_sun_man]

yeah seems about right

 

[HammerStrikes219]

Should this been closed or should we wait for more input?

 

[LIFE_OF_KING]

Can be closes I guess

 

[Abstractions]

Closing.
