I would do a Kineptic character, but I would rather be an actual Avali since *ahem* Avali Nexus Forums.
What weakness? They literally would have the best technology in the galaxy, because they can just print anything to deal with everything, make aerogel blades from lightweight hilts that somehow can hold enough aerogel to do that, and somehow survive a uncontained railgun going off in their hands.
Yeah the 3d printers need to be nerfed. If not in complexity, then in the time it takes to print something.
Aerogel is fine, and I think it's made to be a fast-to-print material so that would explain why blades can be forged so easily. However, people should need to carry cartridges of Aerogel components that they need to load into the blade (I was thinking on the bottom of the hilt similar to a pistol) to print them. These cartridges wouldn't need to be that big since it's my understanding that Aerogel is immensely light and not very dense so you could pack a lot into a small space. The railgun is... uh... yeah. I think in the lore, though it wasn't really ever explained, they probably use exoskeletons, augments, or other such shock-absorbing equipment to deal with firing those things... Which is how it should be from a story perspective.
