## Threat Assessment

### Resources

* **Red Dino Gem** - One of the many Dino Gem's scattered around the Pacific, the Red Dino Gem is a glowing Rock that grants it's wielder a unique power.
	+ **Enhanced Strength** - Conner has strength beyond peak human level in that they're verse and superior to that of a normal member of his species. He can lift heavy objects such as cars, large boulders, vans, and most others if they aren't too big for him. Users of this level are also able to move extremely heavy objects such as bulldozers, etc., but wouldn't actually be able to effectively lift them, or even just slightly at the very least. Conner can also bend/punch through thin steel.
	+ **Enhanced Speed** - Conner can move much faster than the average member of his species, beyond what can be emulated via natural training and with little to no maintaining. However, this power is not without any ill effects, as it can strain the body, although some users may be resistant or even immune to the effects of high-speed travel, including acceleration, friction, g-force, inertia, etc. Conner is able to run from about 40-120 mph.
		- **Accelerated Perception** - Conner's mind and senses process information at such speeds that time appears to have slowed down, allowing him to perceive what would normally be moving too fast to see and respond accordingly.
		- **Accelerated Metabolism** - Conner has an accelerated metabolism, rendering them resistant to weight gain, illness, injury, intoxication, and accelerating his healing speed.

### Weaknesses

* Balance, gravity, and mass still affect the user. Can be overpowered by Supernatural to Absolute Strength. Users are still susceptible to Newton's Three Laws of Motion. Strength may not equal durability. If a user were to attempt to lift something extremely heavy over their head, their bones and joints might snap. May be suspect for Strength Absorption, Muscle Mass Weakening, Strength/Muscle Manipulation, Strength Reduction, etc. May damage the environment/other people without meaning or noticing. There may be a limit to how strong a user can become before it's dangerous for themselves to use. May be limited to certain limbs.
* Weak against Time Reduction users Without Acceleration Immunity user will suffer from the side effects of accelerating to and moving at high velocities. Breathing may be difficult due to high speeds, unless one has Enhanced Lung Capacity. This may be especially troubling when carrying a passenger. May cause burning and extreme heat from the friction of speed. May require heat-proof clothing for protection. User's physical state affects their speed and endurance. Unless the user has Self-Sustenance, they need extreme amounts of calories because of Accelerated Metabolism. May have effects on the user's aging, increasing or decreasing it. Users of Supernatural Speed can utterly out speed the users. May be temporary in effect and limited in continuation depending on the user. Speed doesn't necessarily mean maneuverability, some users may have problems with inertia and tight corners. Traction may be a problem. Can be nullified by Speed Cancellation. Weak against Speed Theft. Weak against Speed Immunity. Susceptible against Gravity Manipulation due to the change in body weight.
