Woke up to the random thought that the connection between semblance and aura is highly unclear

We know that if someone's aura breaks they can't use their semblance (unless the plot needs it >:/), so does that mean that semblances use energy from the soul like aura does? Is it like mana in video games where you only have so much before it runs out and needs to be replenished? If so, are there any substances that can give it a boost? What happens if you use the last of your aura on your semblance? Do people with passive semblances have a constant drain on their aura?

If they're not connected at all, then why would the absence of aura prevent semblance use? What would be preventing someone from using their semblance indefinitely?

God I wish the rules of this place were both clear and sensible

#rwde #asking mostly bc if aura and semblance are connected then yangs semblance makes no damn sense #if semblance uses aura but getting hit diminishes aura then she'd be using 2x the aura as everyone else #it's not a proper inverse system if both parties draw from the same well #maybe the damaged aura gets automatically channeled into her body so it's more of a passive boost instead of her activating it?#idk im def putting more thought into it than the writers #they probs shouldve stuck w yang having anger granting her power since they have her pissy all the damn time #in better hands I'd be excited abt a womans anger being a major source of power since womens anger is oft dismissed and invalidated #for that alone i was v tempted to make that her actual semblance in ohar but it didnt fit w the themes and lore i was going for #v sad
