Well, as long I'm not fading out of existence yet!

[Hmmm... so the world doesn't 'know' how things work, yet? Maybe that's why none of his abilities seem to work? It's made climbing a lot harder, he can't turn invisible, and he can't seem to change colour...]

At least the world's alive. Trees, plants and naked chickens are an improvement over dirt as far as the eye can see.
