I'm sorry, but I still think this guy's a serious Mary Sue. I mean, yeah. All of our characters are guilty of being one to some degree (if you wanted to call Viper a Fixer Sue, I'd have a hard time arguing with you). But having god-like powers (greater than Ilias, no less) and being descended from Alice I crosses the line. Seriously, Luka, Alice and the Four Heavenly Knights are ants compared to this guy. That's the point I was trying to make earlier.

But I can tell you're putting a lot of work into making Dread playable. So maybe if his godlike powers came at a steep price, it might be more plausible. Say, he can make himself more powerful than Ilias, but not more than a few seconds, tops. Or else, he practically unmakes himself and a good chunk of the world with him. Or maybe, his powers mess with his personality. Say, unleashing his power burns through his memories. Those are just a few ideas I can think off the top of my head. Anything that has the potential to leave Dread worse off if he doesn't use his god powers wisely will help bring him back to Earth.
