Oh, you know Batman is just saving up a fate point so he can pull out a Kryptonite ring the second he needs one.

I like the half-demon character, but I have a nit pick to make.  The catch (Blessed Silver) is likely not worth +3.  The catch is something specific, its not something that most people have access to, and its not something that everyone in the supernatural community will know about.  Consider that the Red Court has a catch of +2 for all holy stuff, and that they are common enough that if someone in the supernatural community wanted to find their weakness, it wouldn't be too difficult to do.  I'd say make it a catch of +2 if people can easily figure out what kind of scion you are if trying to find out (which would make researching the catch easier), and only +1 if you seem like a normal human.  Or just broaden the catch.

KOFFEYKID:
Its something everybody could reasonably get access too but aren't likely to carry it on them (+2), and it requires specific knowledge (+1). Plus Id have to drop allot if I lost a point discount refresh :P.

I thought you could not get back more on The Catch, then on the most expensive ability it applies to. If you had a supernatural defence, then you could get away with it.

Also, Silver is easy, blessed is not hard, blessed silver is hard to find without a friendly priest, or a shopping trip to a pagen fair. Going for the generic Holy would be interesting. You need to fear your friends and the well intentioned more then the real big bads who can't take it themselves.
