Weakness: They are Dominic's Mark of Chaos: what makes him an Apostle of Chaos, and the very reason why Dominic is miserable. They systematically destroy anything Order in his life and pollute his mind by talking to him within his mind and out loud. They have complete control of his hands/wrists (not arms). They are forever a part of Dominic; he despises his Whispers so much that he welcomes death (although Dominic welcomes death there are many times when he chooses life: see Personality). The Whispers can't use their Sound while bounded by the Straitjacket. [/spoiler]

Weakness: When Dominic is in his straitjacket he has no need for his teeth (since he has plenty of range). Dominic's acid can dissolve his straitjacket making it more fragile by removing the fibers that make it sturdy [/spoiler]

Weakness: Dominic's body is not reinforced, therefore, he has no added protection other than his nails and healing factor. His body parts are as breakable as any average warrior. Dominic's footprints leave a temporary black zone on the ground (traces of Chaos) that can be easily seen. He is unable to use his Instrument of Chaos while bounded by the straitjacket (he can still move with decent speed when he uses his straitjacket sleeves as his legs).
Exception: When Dominic becomes insane enough (a few levels before Sid) he can move at blinding speeds with the straitjacket still on. He wont be so fast that the opponent can't see his movements, but he will move just fast enough to look like a blur at top speed (easily noticeable by an enemy since the straitjacket is somewhat white) [/spoiler]

Weakness: Although Dominic lacks a strategic approach in any combat scenario, when he rises to Sid-sanity he becomes extremely reckless. He will walk into any trap no matter how obvious and reuse methods that have been previously unsuccessful (he will continue bashing into extremely thick armor that he may never break, causing more damage to himself than to his opponent) [/spoiler]

Weakness: Dominic prefers to not use his Sound unless his life is at "risk", or is driven to adopting Sid. The Whispers use them freely but never upon Dominic's request (though they try to keep him alive at all times, they won't mind Dominic taking some pain or being knocked unconscious; Sid has full control over them). [/spoiler]

Weakness: The Siren stops the Whispers' influence, silencing them both internally and externally from Sid. Over time, Sid will render to Dominic again. The Siren can be expected by opponents with foresight or intelligence; before releasing a Siren, the Whispers on Dominic/Sid's hands will scream constantly, increasing slightly in volume over the course of several minutes.[/spoiler]

Weakness: Dominic has some control over this ability, so he chooses to not use it to its full extent in some situations (He will choose to not regenerate wounds across his body or fix bone fractures, but the Whispers will regenerate his limbs and keep him alive even when decapitated). Without feeling pain Dominic is unable to tell when his body has reached it's limit; meaning, that if a serious set of blows are dealt in succession he can pass out and be unable to fight.
There is a process that can kill Dominic but it is extremely difficult (more explanation coming soon).[/spoiler]

Weakness: Each person can only take on symptoms of one stage of Chaos Leak (i.e. someone can't hallucinate like stage one and violently flail like stage two). It's assumed that when you transfer between each level, you brush off the insanity of the Chaos temporarily until the next stage occurs. At all levels of exposure, whether the subject can resist it or not, the affected target becomes stronger due to the Chaos providing them with extra energy. Natural powers are enhanced and specialty attacks (like magic) can be used more often successively. At the third stage the victims of the Leak start to get very minor Chaotic Healing Factors (however, if they can already heal or have a healing factor, the Chaos further increases their natural ability to do so). This minor factor can heal a few deep wounds (like bullet holes or gashes) very slowly and seal up small cuts and bruises quickly.

Story
[spoiler=Story]
There’s a world where everyone has a 6
th sense. Order and Chaos are partially tangible elements of the world, and as such the people of this world can tell when, and occasionally where, pockets of Order and Chaos occupy.….At the central wing of a hospital in the dead of night a mother was bringing a 16 hour labor to its close. The new Mother and Father had their first and last child born that night. When the baby arrived every room in the hospital could hear the crying. The sound was shrill and left a dark stain in the air. Everyone in the room looked in horror at what should have been a shrieking baby, but that was not the case. The baby was not crying, his mouth was closed, eyes shut, the newborn was sound asleep. There, imbedded inside each of the child’s palms were a mouth, both of which were wide open and distorted; this was the cause of that Chaotic sound. While growing inside the mother, the newborn was unusually susceptible to the influence of everyday Chaos that surrounds everyone. Chaos found an opportunity to create a Disciple of Insanity: which it granted the name of Sid.
As Dominic grew the people around him saw him as a pox in this world influenced by Order and Chaos; the only ones who could bring the child any happiness were his Mother and Father. The child could not go a day without hearing his palms whisper sin into his ears, telling him to kill those closest to him, burn his surroundings down, or other commands that would bring an overabundance of Chaos into the world. It was the love of the Mother and Father that kept the boy Dominic peaceful. When the child would run to them screaming about the “Whispers” in his hands calling him “Sid” and telling him commit these acts, the Mother would retrieve the mittens she made for the boy and place them on his hands. The Father would sit the boy in his lap as the mother sat beside him, reminding the boy of who he was: ”Dominic” a young boy who would live a normal life, someone capable of creating Order where Chaos wanted to settle, someone who could stave off the Chaos within him. With the parents’ support Dominic was able to do just that.
On Dominic’s 6th year an accident occurred. On a routine drive home the Mother was killed a car crash that had been organized by followers of Chaos. They wanted to rid the boy of his Order, which they believed was within the Mother’s presence, so that his Chaos could be released. Their plans were to no immediate avail. The child was pushed to a level he had never reached and the Whispers became louder to the boy from that moment on. Dominic’s days seemed to be much darker, but thanks to the efforts of his Father the boy was able to overcome his tragic loss and still remain in control.
As he grew older, Dominic was left alone in school. The teachers passed him off, one to the other, not wanting to be near the boy, and the kids either shunned the boy or beat him without remorse. On his 11th year, Dominic was getting harassed by the same group of kids that routinely tormented him all his life. The children had decided on this day to bear witness to what made Dominic an apostle of Chaos. They removed the pair of gloves the boy wore this day and stood, initially, in awe of what was under the gloves. They could hear the Whispers. The kids became unruly and loud, mocking Dominic, but this made the Whispers louder. Dominic cupped his hands over his ears to drown out the kids, placing the Whispers closer than they’ve ever been. The Whispers then became more than voices to Dominic, they became an irrational feeling in
