Well, I saw AB's character have Spicy Food in the bio and acted accordingly. As for bleach, my mindset was, if I can't eat or drink it in real life and the reason for it is not because it's physically sharp or pointy or oversized, then it would count. :3

Issues with your E Tech, first one you dont have to coat weapons with it. As I mentioned you could convert the weapon itself into your element. Like shooting bullets made of cyanide.
Ah, ok. The technique is still useful in itself though and coating weapons could still be useful if I want to persuade an ally (willing or otherwise) to fight on my side. Or poison someone's shaving razor. :3

Your original number two, I still would have denied but for a different reason. You already can do this. It doesn't make you invulnerable though, you still have to exert effort to keep the form together, but it can have perks. Arcanum for example, if in metal for would take alot less damage from being cut with a knife. A character of smoke, while a missile passing though them would need to be healed, better then getting hit with the blast too.
Good to know and even better to hear that I already have it.

Your rot though is perfectly fine. In fact might I suggest going with element of smoke instead? It still embodies everything you want but works better on a thematic scale. Say poison and most have just a vague concept, but smoke is instantly pictured and understood which is what you want with elements. Its like comparing heat to fire.
Well, Smoke doesn't sound useful at all. It is easy to picture yes, but not really do much. Ever played pokemon? Just think of a elementalized version of Muk, Weezing and other pokemon pokemons that aren't based on real life poisonous animals (Although Grevan could use their abilities too with his first ability). Heck, Muk is easy to visualize, along with any other representation of sentient sludge or whatnot.

Finally, honestly having trouble figuring out how to work you into the story. I just dont see much reason for them to interact with you its why I made PCs members of the same group. so, if you have any suggestions please share.
Easy enough. Too dangerous to let roam unchecked (or hired by lawbreakers), willing to do some dirty and dangerous work in exchange for immunity to law and all the money and chicks he can handle. :3
Think of him like a mercenery or someone like Belkar from Order of the Stick. His abilities can be bought to use his pretty useful but otherwise inhumane powers for the greater good. Just don't expect him to be moved by patriotism or anything that doesn't directly satisfy his avarice.
