MimeMan's "illusions" have real effects - if he lassos you with an invisible rope, by golly, you're lassoed. His limitation is that he's doesn't make anything really *real* - he can't mime getting into an invisible car and start traveling 60 miles an hour, for example, or climb an invisible ladder to the 14th floor. His actual power is more like mind control - he makes you *think* the "handcuffs" he just put on you are real, so you act accordingly. He also has great body control, agility, and speed, and the ability to disguise his appearance to look like different characters.

       Exactly how does one "mime" reading perps their rights? I smell a dismissal!

Silent but dreadly.
