Mental Shield is simple enough that we could fit it in, but it's not super iconic for him. I liked the protection aura Psionic Shield has, but we can probably find a more fitting spot for it.

"that Mutant" is standard Sidekick power language. Not sure why it would be a problem here. I did realize that an "any other" should be added to the first sentence. I borrowed most of the wording from Jason Todd, but he bonds with Vigilantes without being one, where this shouldn't trigger on Quentin's turn.

After the breathing period, I'll update with suggested wording changes. I'm not a big fan of making the wound an unblockable attack die though. It's already relying on a D20 and it's limited to a single wound, so I really don't think it's a balance issue. He's already swingy enough that I'd like to avoid making him swingier.
