Regeneration: Hayden's regenerative factor has been put under control now that he has gain sufficient use of it. Rather than be able to quickly regenerate like he used to the regen is something that he has to keep in the back of his mind and the cost of being able to use it at will is it's severly limited. For instance, if he was to break a limb in a fight through focusing on this major wound over the time of one or two posts it would be able to revert back to a non broken state. Perhaps he receives a cut to his neck, this would be something it would have to put most of his focus on to heal and most likely prevent him from fighting so he can keep himself alive and close the wound before he bleeds out. However, if he was to completely loose a limb as of right now that limb would be gone till he gets more power behind himself. Like in his previous regen this keeps him in optimal health allowing him to not catch diseases or toxins due to the fact of death matters converts outside substances to death matter thats just how the power works at it's most basic form.

If he suffered a superficial wound it wouldn't take long to heal as those are only minor cuts and scrapes. When it comes to broken bones or cuts to the bone it can take from one post to five depending on the severity and how many are inflicted onto him. When it comes to loosing a limb that limb will be gone until further notice.

______________
Addressing some of the questions frost posed about the regen factor, when Hayden was infected with the Death Matter it bonded to his body altering his molecular structure to that of mostly death matter. When he is hurt or destroyed the death matter sees it as an unnatural change to it’s host so it works to fix him by recreating what was insured through death matter since his body in that regard is death matter. I believe I thought I stated that to many reformations or regeneration over a prolonged time will fatigue him wearing the passive ability out forcing him to have to focus on the regeneration and drastically decreasing the speed till he can rest or loses it temporarily. Reformation is what takes the most strain on his ability so getting blown up or having a very drawn out fight that goes into the hours will lead to his regen slowly deteriorating if he remains fatigued in which cause his regen can be sustained for a small bit more through willpower and focus. Hayden can passively fix all minor injuries to himself and major injuries do strain him, making him work to fight his regen factor wills slowly fatigue.

Enhanced Death Matter control: Hayden has finally after trial and error has achieved control and usage over a large portion of his death matter finally able to refine it in his own away and his own attacks without fear of exploding on accident. Like stated before Death Matter is the essence of death there for it has the capabilities to kill or convert ANYTHING to its self if exposed to it including all forms of matter. Hayden's specialty with death matter is infecting other items with Death Matter to cause it to become molecularly unstable and crash the particles together to form high explosive bombs out of things while increasing the mass and output of the object. An example of this would be similar to the Large Hadron Particle collider, something that that has caused 7.2 trillion degree explosion using the same process Hayden does for his bomb. Although to reach this Hayden would have to send a particle flying at over 2.7 miles at super speeds and collide it with another particle traveling the same speed to cause that rendering it unlikely to be used in combat. Death matter for him can now be created and manipulated in any fashion be it making a coat out of it or a sword that cuts down to a molecular level due to its properties. Hell its even affected his Shikai and in the future his Bankai.

Instead of being able to cause hydro level bombs at his peak like Wolf, Hayden has the potential to create nuclear or supernova levels of attacks when he reaches higher levels or if he is willing to expand so much energy he literally dissipates for an extended period of time as his body has to regathering the Death Matter to form from such an explosion. I like to stress the potential part of this as it is not something he will likely ever try to attempt due to the sheer destructive power but he does know it is certainly a possibility due to how easily he gather reishi due to his slayer and death matter natures. Absorbing and redirection is his speciality after all.

In short Death Matter for Hayden is the Anti-Thesis to what 21 century scientist called the Higgs Boson God Particle, a particle that gave mass at a subatomic allowing creation of many atoms and what not. Death Matter acts completely the opposite causing it to be like a reversed Higgs Boson particle that takes anything blank matter or otherwise and convert it to Death Matter as Death is the natural flow of the universe.

Second portion to address frost questions; while death matter can kill or convert anything naturally to it, there is a way to defend against it. Death Matter despite being death essence has to be connected to a source, the conversion process can only be done if it is connected to the source which is Hayden. If it is inanimate matter like a weapon or even a tree Hayden can leave a small speck of death matter and let those completely convert to death matter- however if it’s someone on his level he would have to either place a large glop on them or have physical contact. If the connect is broken the death matter can be removed through physical or supernatural means such as with fire or ice as two examples but if they physically touch it with their hands or some other animate object it will simply spread like a sticky substance.

Some examples of Death Matter in active form would be like when Hayden was in the forest thread, the death matter and his slayer nature took the firepower Shatari gave him and converted it into a hybrid energy he had temporarily for expelling it in a much more potent and explosive fashion. Hayden could coat his sword with death matter and if he focused on his swordplay and the death matter density/molecular structure he could increase it’s density/weight along with it’s sharpness and cutting power. It’s like a free form matter that can only manipulate it’s self and this brings us to the limitations. Death matter is death. It cannot create life. Hayden obviously cannot make sentient drones to do his bidding, he can create something akin to human shaped fodder is he really wanted to but it’s impractical as they cannot do anything unless he wills their body to move and that would be very taxing. Death Matter limitations are to be frank can be limitless but only if the person using it has limitless potential (i.e. Death) however Hayden is not limitless he has pretty precise limits to be frank. Hayden even when his body fully accepts death matter will still not be able to perform grand acts of death matter back to back, maintain Death Matter in the physical realm currently isn’t extremely taxing but maintaining it for fourteens is where he is pushing his limits without rest.

Since the limitation has been placed to Nuclear I’ll address some of the other limits of Death Matter. Some about death matter that is a plus and negative is that Death Matter will convert anything that is given to his energy to death matter severely shortening his Slayer nature, this can be a blessing as it protects him for illness but a curse because in the future this will not allow him to perform most of his slayer take over actions. The true limits of Death Matter are far and few besides creating life; so the true limiter is Hayden. Hayden body simply cannot truly ever use DM to it’s true potential as the only person who can do that is Death himself. While Hayden can perform great acts like slicing through moleculars with it with enough focus or creating extreme explosions these actions will fatigue him quickly if he keeps doing them back to back- to be frank this was never a power intended for a mortal causing his body to have to become the way it is. Thankfully the worst huddles are done but there is still more to learn and master, the more he improves his over energy to draw from the more Death Matter he will be able to use and expand upon. I’d say the best example would be like a RPG- even though you have many or stamina you gotta level up and improve those stats to use more higher level spells or attacks; death matter works the same way. The more natural energy he has the more he can use DM.

When it comes to the 'possibilities' section these are NOT things he can perform as of now. They are simply the future of the powers and when they are made the drawbacks will be included.

Master Regeneration: Hayden Currently has an unstable Advance Regen from his Death Matter. Due to his body becoming used to it and training with it he has obtained a natural level of regeneration that Wolf has passively as well. The only way to cause long last permanent damage to him would be to attack so much and tire his regen out causing him to have to focus on this, but even if he is exploded he can reform due to the residue Death Matter in the area. This leaves his body in optimal physical health and condition making him immune to all contaminants and tumorous attacks or cells. In short if Hayden body is completely destroyed before he is fatigued it will reform himself eventually but take some time, but if he is repeatedly destroyed this could permanently end him. Vaporization multiple times would be the way to go to defeat him although the first attempt at it will prove futile leaving it a matter of who can expand more energy and not get tired.

This feels rather vague. How does the Death Matter help him regenerate? Does he get fatigued from too many regenerations? What's the limit here? I'd like more detail on his regenerative capacities for something like this.

Like stated before Death Matter is the essence of death there for it has the capabilities to kill or convert ANYTHING to its self if exposed to it including all forms of matter.

I'd say it has the potential. And by that, I mean ensure that there are ways people can potentially fight against it.

Death matter for him can now be created and manipulated in any fashion be it making a coat out of it or a sword that cuts down to a molecular level due to its properties.

Give more illustrations of it and its limits.

Instead of being able to cause hydro level bombs at his peak like Wolf, Hayden has the potential to create nuclear or supernova levels of attacks

Yes to nuclear. No to supernova. You are going to need more detail for something like this. How this ability advance the stronger he gets? What are more of its limits?

A big problem I have with the abilities in question are they aren't given drawbacks dependent on Hayden's strength and Tier. He just recently gained Death Matter and even through buying something, I wouldn't be okay with this mass level of mastery. Here's what I have to say. Given you've made a few changes, that's a bit appreciated. Problem is, I can't allow this to be approved if these abilities are not gained via multiple training threads. Other staff may do so but I just can't see something like this for someone in Hayden's case if it was no also earned through roleplay.

Onto the abilities, I have a bit of an issue with the Regeneration. Like stated before, given Hayden's strength as of right now I can't imagine him keeping this going without devoting a bit of resources to it. This should be an ability that is always in the back of his mind right now, having issues being stable and in constant use if not noted almost always. He isn't Wolf, so that's a bit of an issue for me.

My final, huge problem is that these "possibilities" do not have post cooldowns and start ups for them. With some of the things you state Hayden can do with this special power is absurd if it was just "done" with no issues, you know what I mean? I need some type of posting order created for the greater effects for Death Matter. This pertains to the nuclear explosions and anything that would take more than just a single post to create, and there's a lot of limitation in that regard given most of the examples you gave, at your current tier and strength, would take multiple posts in order to create.

That's just my Two Cents.

With the Regen I don't believe most of what said can really be obtained as of right now for Hayden. The idea of him being blown apart three times is absurd, even most 0 tiers cant do that. I want that completely removed. Rewriting the entire ability may help as well given I'm not so cool with the idea of Death Matter pulling him back into a single person again. I also thinking vaporizing him a single time at this point wouldn't be much of an issue in terms of his death. I don't really believe death matter for Hayden could do much other than reforming some types of wounds and making sure he isn't just broken. Otherwise... I just can't see a lot of it man.

You didn't address the Regen too well. After viewing it in your app, I still have issues with him being able to form back together after being pulled apart in manners such as explosion. I also dont feel like he'd be able to regen a lot of other types of wounds quickly either. You don't seem to really understand much of what bugs me. My overall issue is with tier, the way regen works and the way its written, this death matter isnt going to be able to just bring him back together, no matter the type of wound. Ill admit that some types of breaks and wounds could be worked through and fixed but I just dont think a majority of decent wounds would be heal-able in a fast manner, not until later on in his future.

Completely rewrote the death matter regen I hope it fits this time.
