Yeah if someone is shooting at you it’s a bit late. Being that the character didn’t have a weapon on them I was hoping for a bit of not immediately murder him energy.

Although I suppose once they get there you could just create a couple feet thick wall of shit out of the air around you making an escape funnel. Until you can block their view and escape.

Without having a range/time to perform/nor limits on how much can be converted it really is pretty powerful.
