Why do the particles only come from the letters, not the Owl? Seems arbitrary ... but maybe they did it so they didn't have to be reflected? (The Owl has an interesting reflection)

The particles are being emitted by the geometry shape. i don't think reflection can be a reason for the Owl not emitting them. Most prbly something else, just missing as of now , maybe.

I had the same doubt when I watched the trailer. it isn't electricity, but it can't be light as then we would have infinite supply from the Sun :p !

The smoke power in itself is already pretty weird. Not that any superhero story is exactly plausible, but they usually have some sort of pseudo-scientific explanation. Elemental powers like electricity, fire or ice, although completely unrealistic, feel natural in some way. Human beings do absorb and store energy, and energy can in fact be transformed into electricity, heat, or reversely lack of it (though for the ice power to work out physically, you must assume cole was farting out heat on the other side hahha) But producing smoke is just hard to explain. Where is it coming from? Is he with a severe case of lung cancer? Or is incredible amounts of dead skin the guy is shedding out to make those smoke puffs? And how does he suck it in with his hands? With electricity, we take as his body is creating some sort of potential difference causing energy to be transfered to him, but smoke is just airflow+dustparticles, you can suck that up by breathing, but by waving your hand?
Its a good direction for a game though. Fuck science right from the start and allow your fictional universe to incorporate different sorts of creative super-powers.

It be could similar to absorbing electricity from previous games, the sign and the owl are 2 separate sources even though they are apart of the same physical structure.

Either you need artificial light sources to drain from, or you're be stronger in the day time (assuming there's a day/night cycle this time).
