> I had forgotten about some of those "possible" powers. I'd think all of them could be currently viable powers, since most of those have been used in some sense in a story. With #1, I like to think it's a bit of mystery: Is the just the suit or is it an innate ability? It's a grey area since no one knows Lee's origin story, not even me! \:\) I've thought up a few different possible origins for Lee but then I run into problems. So, I just leave it be partly because with that story I've got to explain a few things that I think work better for Lee if they are left general.

Lee's powers are useful because they allow for quick information updates and in-story footnotes, and because his non-force approach sometimes prevails where fists and zap-rays can't. It alos allows for lots of clever variations on how he operates - as per this issue.

As for Lee's background, I think you have plenty of time to develop it at your leasure. I know you'd considered that this might be something of a family calling (hence the family surname).

It was from some e-mail correspondence we had in July '03.
