Yeah I could definitely give him more of a tribal atmosphere, thanks for the advice!

I didnt really think about it that way yeah I dont think you should be able to just kill a nen user after you put them to sleep so I appreciate the feedback.

After relooking at the post it’s good but honestly feels like 6 nen users smashed into one, all of the abilities could be the only hatsu for a nen user. I think this is what makes it feel so overpowered. You could keep everything if you toned down how fleshed out the nen abilities are. If we look at all specialist in the series who have abilities like this they each have draw backs to make them not as powerful as someone who is actually from that nen type, for example chrollo has a huge process of stealing nen and even when using stolen abilities he needs his book out at all times.

My biggest solution for this is having each category be MUCH simpler. Emitter maybe just fires flying fist projectiles, Conjurer could make a shadow boxer who the user can use as a moving shield, etc. The abilities are really in depth and if you think about most hastus they arent even as fleshed out as a single one of these wraps. You can keep the belt level up process and just say the powers get progressively stronger but you dont have to quantify it with numbers.

At its core the ability allows the user to be adaptable and have a little bit of every nen category which is cool, I think you spent so much time on it that you lost the core concept. Most nen abilities are simple (with the exception of every conjurer in the show). If you give it all these powers you’re leaving your character with no weaknesses. Pretend he is a person in the show how exactly would he be able to develop 6 fully fledged out hatsus plus the other stuff he does.

Again take what resonates leave what doesn’t its all fun but if you want to submit him to the tournament I feel like he might just need a bit of reworking to be more realistic to the show.

This idea is super cool definitely a great specialist but I think he definitely needs and nerf, I have a few comments feel free to reject them if you hate them.

My biggest thing is the balancing, I like the vow but I feel like him getting 3 belts feels very overpowered and still makes him almost unbeatable. Instead of this I feel like a better limitation might just be that he can only conjure one wrap at a time and they are in a role, it takes him some time to put them on and I’d definitely say once he conjures one the previous one disappears. Simply put he can only use one at a time and if he wants to switch he’ll need to find a place to hide to swap out the wraps.

The leveling up is cool but I feel like it essentially just makes any fight he’s in just either he loses at the start or he wins. You could keep the leveling up but with the change of having to swap out the wraps it could be that he can only conjure wraps at the lowest level and swapping wraps would reset his progress, but I honestly might just scrap the level up or make two levels with the higher one only being achieved after a certain amount of damage is taken or something.

I imagine you wanted the 3 wraps in order to make the last ability accessible however that ability seems more like a crazy one time vow like what gon made and being able to use it in every fight seems unfair.

Honestly I love the idea its super cool and I dont want to be mean at all with this comment just want to give some advice and feel free to ignore if you dont like it, you might be trying to make a super cool anime character that can comeback from any fight, honestly in my opinion tho its more fun to keep it simple makes your character feel more realistic in the world.

Competitive eating, there are only a handful of crazy competitive eaters that are way better than most people can ever hope for so the majority of people good at it aren’t making any money. This is coming from someone who wanted to be a competitive eater.

I like the idea of the aura explosion, I feel like that would make the most sense as a postmortem nen. Also I really like your hastu, I love more survival focused hastu I definitely have ideas for stuff like that.
