Quote from generalZI agree it is generic but I think that if everybody would be to use your system, every rhg would be generic.
what the fuck, where's the logic there
i don't see how he suggested everyone to use the same ability

Quote from WafflesMgeeMy system with RHGs is that they should have a primary ability- yours being speed- and a secondary ability, with a possible physical enhancement like armour or buffness.
Your guy is just fast, really. Why not make him like, unbelievably fast? Almost all RHGs have fast as a secondary sort of ability, but why not just have your guy be 100x faster than that?
Here's an idea for you. He can run up to mach 5. If he reaches the speed of sound (mach 1), out comes a shockwave. If he reaches mach 2, the air friction causes him to become a running ball of flame, the fire not hurting him at all. Mach 3, he ditches the fire and becomes so fast that he's practically invisible to the human eye and the world around him seems to slow down. Up to mach 5, he's casually running in a world where time has stopped.
The balance to this would be that he'd need a lot of room to run this fast. All characters are pretty OP, and your guy is too generic to really compete with that. Don't just make speed a secondary thing, man. Turn it into a beastly weapon.
Speed wasn't going to be just a secondary thing for him it is primary in fact
It's like his only real ability and the rest just support it. I didn't give him tons of abilities because I wanted to see what I could do with one basic and how creative I could get
with it. I put he can run at extremely high speeds and that's pretty general so He can move at a lot of different speeds and it still would make sense. I do like your suggestions though.

If you want to take just one ability and see how creative you can get I suggest you look into special relativity.
Hell, just watch some stuff of the flash and see what you can come up with based on that.

No.
My system:
have a primary power.
have a secondary supporting power.
have some sort of physical enhancement.
The idea is to not have your character a bundle of edgy shitty forms and a spoiler full of 10x "special moves".
This does not limit creativity at all. I've helped a bunch of people with their shit. No, what limits creativity is doing stuff everyone else has done because you can't think of any original powers or original takes on overused powers.
One day I plan on making a thread addressing creativity issues for people who want to amake characters that aren't the same old shit with a different edgy name and detailed weapon.

question is can he even animate all that?

Sonic boom is just a big flash and everything being flung back. Fire wouldn't be too hard in flash. It wouldn't be hard, and if you do find it tough, all the more reason to strive to better yourself.

It's possible.

If you say so, by all means take his idea and change it a bit to your liking and you will have well balanced RHG

I think the abilities are fine (enough), serving as a mild deconstruction of sorts to the usual super speed abilities. I suggest giving him difficulty turning and stopping while running.

I'm just saying speed is usually a secondary power that almost everyone has. You need to boost it into something worthy of a main power. He's a fast guy amongst an army of other fast guys. You need to make him faster. Maybe attempt to put an original twist on the whole thing?

Considering that he all-capped and bolded "EXTREMELY", and that he can travel at light speed (which is already overkill, much like this person right here), I think it's fast enough.

I didn't realize that many people had super speed
abilities, okay. And I bolded extremely so that it
could very easily be seen.

really? everyone wants to go fast. lol.

This is pretty much one of the main reasons most people initially pick super speed: To have an easier time animating. Also, we do have our fair share of brutes. Alba Laddies, Handyman, Magus, Tsengia...Quote from xRAGExwho wants to ease, amirite?
