Mod
Mod
Earth Control - Elizabeth C cont
They can collect and store the earth's tremors and release them, or cause soil and the earth to shift. They can grow plants from the ground. Burnout: powers are weaker the further/higher up from the earth that they are, and too much absorption from the earth's tremors and using them can cause headaches, blackout, and if really not careful, death.
Puppeteer - magnolia
The user is able to control someones actions, by speaking to them, this does have draw backs for example they can only speak by saying spices; and no one ever knows what they are trying to say or the meaning behind each spice as a word. The user also has the draw back that if they use a words that are very strong (ex: kill, blast away, shoot) it can cause them to cough blood and is very painful, as a result they don't use these words often.
Cremation - magnolia
The user is able to control blue flames, which is the hottest fire, and if they touch something while using this ability it will quickly turn it to ash or the fire will spread. Draw backs include to much use will burn the user, as well as leave permanent scaring from using this ability in large quantities.
Beast - magnolia
The user is able to enter a state which allows beast-like abilities, this includes stronger and quicker healing, as well as the ability to have the beast form's limbs while in a normal appearance. Down sides are they are quite feral while in the full form, and after shifting back they are unable to remember anything that happened or what they did.
Object Inversion - magnolia
The user can invert their target (whether living or objects) causing them to turn inside-out. Depending on how this happens it may be merely unpleasant experience or instantly lethal. As well as the less flexible the object the less give it has so some time it with simple explode. Down sides are the user is unable to revert that target to normal, as well as it can cause great mental strain to the user.
Haze of Adoration - Xavier
The ability to breathe out a particularly "enchanting" kind of haze where those whose skin absorbs it or who breathe it in are under the users hold and are completely taken over by a rather extreme type of "fever dream" type of infatuation for the user in which the user is basically able to tell them to do anything and they will find themselves with an intense need to do it. If they don't, their throat or skin will start to burn until either the user loosens their hold on them, until the user is incapacitated or dead, or until the person under the user's hold finally gives in. The drawbacks of this ability are that if it is heavily repeated, the user's throat will start with just a slightly uncomfortable tingling sensation in their throat that will turn into a extremely painful burning feeling caused by the toxins (that are harmless to the people that the user breathes the mist on until they become active once those people try to break free from the user) in the haze that will affect the user's throat in incredibly torturous ways if the user does get it looked at or learns to lessen the harmful affects of their ability. Heavy uses of this ability also weaken the user's vocal strength, breath-related stamina and constitution (how long they can go without breathing and how strong their breaths are able to be), and can make the user very light-headed. If the toxins slowly burning the user's throat away from the inside remain unchecked, it can result in the user's death or can completely take away the user's voice as well as their ability to breath without a machine helping them.
Body Language - kit
The user is able to recognize when someone is lying or what they’re feeling emotionally by their body language. It happens almost immediately, like an alarm in their brain that warns them of danger. The user becomes unresponsive and glassy-eyed if they overuse this ability.
Copycat - kit
Going hand in hand with the Body Language power, the user is able to replicate their body language. But almost improve it somehow, smoothing out the imperfections and showing no signs of lying or deceit. The burnout for this power is the user forgetting how they themselves act if they’ve been mimicking someone else for too long.
Electrician
User can control electricity and lightning. They can take electricity from buildings inside their bodies and it surges through before they can expel it. They can also control lightning in a similar way while also being able to manipulate it when there’s a lightning storm. They can’t create lightning or electricity so that’s a burnout, but can manipulate it and draw on it and touch currents without electrocution. Usually anyway. Because too much overcharge can be deadly and can stop their heart; they can touch electricity but a direct hit from lightning can cause near death.
Extreme Luck - Ayla
Bending odds just a little your way. It kind of just happens at first, but you can learn to control luck--swing things your way. It depends on the context, but it allows you to have some sort of advantage over the opponent. Causes extreme fatigue and headaches, and can leave your brain feeling slightly numb for days depending on the level of power used.
Pain Infliction - Ayla
User can inflict controlled amounts of pain on others. It's like an electric pulse, invisible to the naked eye but you can feel its effects immediately. It's a severe form of torture in a way, and the pain can immobilize and even kill others when controlled correctly. Think Victor Vale's ability from Vicious. After effects include feeling throbbing pain all over your body, severity of the pain depending on how much you've overused your ability.
Reality Warping - Ayla
A bit like illusions, but you can actually create and do things that seem impossible. The user essentially defies the basic rules of biology, physics, time, etc. However, it's extremely limiting because it's so hard to be able to use to it to its fullest extent. The main uses include vanishing / materializing objects, creating things out of thin air, transforming materials and objects, or even altering reality or the laws of physics. Overuse results in nosebleeds, feeling disconnected from your body, and sudden and temporary paralyzation in certain joints. Can eventually drive you insane from major overuse.
Mind Control - Ayla
This is immensely powerful, but it takes a long time to learn control and most of it is too much for the user to handle. You can often feel the unrelenting presence of others, and it takes a while to develop your mind to tune that out. It's like a constant awareness. When using powers, the user can learn to take over another's mind and control them in small but versatile ways. As the user grows more powerful, they can eventually command others quickly and completely, even those with the strongest of minds. Overuse can include mild to severe headaches, dark spots around your vision, dehydration, and dizziness. As it gets worse, your head will start to feel like it's slowly splitting open from the pressure of other people's minds.
Mediumship - Ayla
The user can hear whispers of the dead wherever they go, and they do have to learn to block that out or not get freaked out by it. You can converse with the dead and command them as well, making them fully visible and tangible, but only for select amounts of time. The only limits are that the user can't make anyone dead living again. Overuse can consist of mild hallucinations, shortness of breath, and temporary loss of ability depending on the degree of overuse.
Dream Manipulation - Thorn
User can create, shape, enter and manipulate the dreams of sleeping people. This includes modifying, suppressing, fabricating, influencing, and observing both dreams and nightmares. User can also bestow nightmares or lucid dreaming. The ability is rendered useless once the target wakes and user must be within 100ft of target for ability to be effective. Overuse causes user extreme headaches, fatigue and eventually leads to unconciousness.
Energy Vampire - ☯-urania-☯
The User can use other people's powers as their own when they are in contact with that person. Along with this ability, the user also has enhanced senses so that they can see or hear people coming as well as knowing when to give a power back. The user can hold up to ten powers of abilities at a time but at a great cost. In order for them to 'steal' someone's ability, they have to be rested, or if in danger, they can steal an ability for a certain amount of time. Also, if the user uses the ability to much or keeps powers for to long, they start to lose themselves to the darkness. Whether they start to fade away mentally or they slowly become something that just isn't living anymore.
Wish Granting - ☯-urania-☯
The user is able to grant other people's wishes. No matter what, unless the wishes break the Magic Law. The user can not, in anyway, wish for something themselves and then grant it for themselves. The only way they can get something from the wishes is if someone else wishes for them, even then it's hard. One person can have as many wishes as they want, as long as they follow these rules. No wishing for more wishes, no wishing death on someone else, if you wish for love then you'll always feel guilty about it, finally no wishing for a new life. Other than that, there are no other rules for the people who wish for something. There are plenty of rules for the granter though. Also, if someone wishes for something within a certain distance, their wish will be granted without a second thought or act of consent. Overuse of this power never ends well, if the user uses this to much, they can easily pass out or if used to much, die a painful death. The normal burnouts are things such as headaches, body pains, or small cuts here and there.
Special Arts - Smiles
User has unimaginable art skills. Within seconds, the user can create something, which in turn will come alive. The user is able to use any sort of media, and the art will come alive/become solid at their will. Anything can be created, but creativity is required for anything specific. Living creatures are very hard to make, and must have everything down the littlest detail otherwise it will be a solid media. More specifically, if tattooed, the object drawn can be summoned at any time and can be willed to either appear or disappear. There are some limitations though. Without specifics, the object may not become what the user wishes it to be and if you attempt to make a mythical creature, it will prove difficult and will take a lot of time. With each use, the user must take a long break and/or nap, without it the user will pass out. If a project is very long and the user does not take regular breaks, they will fall unconscious and experience vertigo and muscle locking for up to a week. When tattooing, the user must carve the symbol into themselves, otherwise it will be a normal tattoo. Other burnouts of overuse include; headaches, muscle soreness, nausea and random bruising/cuts.
Mod
the list still continued
Plant Speech - mugs
User can speak to plants and hear their thoughts for periods of time. With practice time before burnout can lengthen, but conversations longer than an hour will cause the user to experience severe headaches and/or pass out. If the user's body is injured in a specific area, burnout can increase pain felt in that area, and many other typical burnouts can apply as well. Recovery time varies depending on the length of the conversation and burnout can't be avoided simply by switching to talking with another plant, but switching can ease the pain the user feels from burnout. Attempting to talk or listen to large groups of plants at the same time will usually overwhelm the user.
The power can be used to encourage plants in a direction, similarly to how you could encourage a person to do something or go somewhere, but encouraging a plant to do something that is against its nature is very difficult and usually impossible. (for example, encouraging a venus flytrap to release a bug, or a grapevine not to curl around a tree) This ability does not speed up growth rates or do anything other than allowing the user to talk to and listen to plants.
Vow to Silence - Verian
User can temporarily seal someone else's ability for a few seconds at a time, usually to cancel specific actions rather than prolonged use. This causes the sealed ability's burnout to happen to the sealer at twice the rate.
Flight - Elizabeth C.
User can fly--they have the ability to travel hundreds of miles on their own. They're able to lift off the ground and hover, and then to go higher and further the more well-trained they are. It takes a lot of effort, and if this person thinks too much about what they're doing, the ability will kind of psyche out and they'll end up falling and being unable to fly. Also, they cannot fly above a certain height--they can only go as high as maybe two of the Empire State buildings on top of one another, and can't, for example, touch the clouds. Burnout: too much airtime without coming down can cause intense sweatiness and then dizziness and can lead to a lack of proper breathing, then loss of consciousness, which usually would result in falling from the sky and death.
Operative - `~`Achilles`~`
This ability heightens the users ability to point out or notice and remember every detail, how important it is and how to use it. Also giving the ability to use and access their cognition easier, usually allowing the user to get the 'bigger picture' quicker than others. Almost like Sherlock Holmes, but similar to what happens to him, these details can be rigged or manipulated in a way to mislead the user. Getting too familiar with using this ability can lead to relying on it, which also can lead to any signs that rigged information could easily fly right over the user's head. This ability requires focus and dedication to actually be of use. If this user lacks the ability to focus, the information will overload, making false connections. The user can be aware of these false connections but cannot fix it unless in the right mindset (or in other words they allow themselves to focus) With so much information at once, this ability can lead to diagnoses of Anxiety and OCD. (User basically becomes a super detective)
Gravity Manipulation - Magnolia
This ability grants the user precise control over the universal force of gravity, specifically of them self and anything the user touches. Making the user able to stop incoming object directed towards them or even walk on walls. Down falls are the user can't control gravity other that of their own and what they touch, as well as fatigue after using the ability.
Shapeshift - Silent Moon_8
The Ability lets you change into a living or dead animals physical appearance. Mimicking there every curve including scars and wounds and even sometimes there personality, but they can't mimic what the animal knows/thinks. When you transform you have the animals strength and weaknesses. You can talk to other animals as well. Burnout: This power can only last for as much as you can hold, taking your energy every minute. If the animal form is held for to long it can cause you to faint and you will turn back into your original form.
Telekenesis/Pychokenesis - Z
The ability to move things around without any physical movement towards the object. An example would be such as flouting objects and energy blasts. the action of mind on the matter, in which objects are supposedly caused to move or change as a result of mental concentration upon them. the action of mind on the matter, in which objects are supposedly caused to move or change as a result of mental concentration upon them. When they burn out, they lose control and need to be put to sleep, so they can cool off and the magic can subside to a level of balance.
Fog generation/manipulation - smol mushroom
fog generation is the ability to, as the name implies, generate fog. But there is more than the simple fog that is hard to see through, some skilled wielders have the ability to make poisonous fog that in one hour, with direct contact, can kill. But the poisoning is very rare and does have its downsides. When starting to use it, ice spreads across the user's body until it will freeze them entirely. User can also generate normal fog and manipulate it into distinct shapes, and generate enough fog to cover a city.
Absolute mirroring - Xavier
This ability grants its user the power to shift into other human-like beings but not only in appearance and their physical being. The user additionally has access to the person in question’s personality, skills, weaknesses, and even some of their memories if the user knows them well enough. They can do what they do, act as they act, and feel as they feel. Unfortunately, there are very dangerous drawbacks. If the user stays as one person for long, or not even that long if they tap into that person’s being too many times, they cannot help but become more like that person, even if they do not wish to be. The user inevitably take on their weaknesses, feelings towards other people, lose their own memories and attachments to the people in their own life as the ones from the other person takes over. In the end, if they’re not careful, they’ll be nothing but that exact person, losing their own sense of them. If they turn into too many people, then the same thing will happen, but a lot more chaotically since they’ll be a patchwork mess of the identities of all of those other people.
Soul Manipulation - something
The user can concentrate on the nearby person of their choice and access into their soul. Through this, they can inflict spiritual pain on the person or corrupt the soul into becoming dark and rotten, causing the victim to be momentarily sapped of strength and will to live. If used too many times and in a short amount of time, or if the corruption of a soul is maintained for too long, the user first starts to feel... unsettled, and then starts to hallucinate, then dissasociate, and even fall unconscious if they keep going despite the red flags.
Weapon Manifestation - magnolia
The user of this ability is able to manifest all sorts of weapons, but they will be fully made of metal, the range of manifestation can be from throwing knifes to a gun. Down falls are the user has to take iron pills the more iron ingested the more weapons they can make, this also means the larger the weapon the more iron they must take. (for every throwing knife = 1 iron pill, other weapons = 4+ iron pills)
Ink - Smiles
The user can expel a viscous, black liquid from their body, usually from their mouth or eyes. This liquid is infinite, but after a while can become hard to generate and can severally hurt the user. This liquid can be controlled by the user and can harden for short periods of time. The user can suffocate others with this liquid, and even lacerate with it. The liquid can evaporate at the users will. If controlled for too long, the user can experience severe headaches, muscle fatigue, fainting and mental fatigue. If too much is generated the user can start vomiting blood, organ failure, fainting, and even death.
Solar Absorbtion/Manipulation - WalkingCrown
This ability allows the absorption of the sun as a source of energy which mean they need sunlight. When their powers are drained in an area where there are no sunlight present, they can't use their abilities such as: shooting out beams, energy spheres or simply powering every day objects. Since the user operates directly with the sun, they are more exposed to radiation and is mostly likely suffering from radiation poisoning. They can also cause harm to others by also exposing them to radiation sickness if the user decides to use their full extent of their powers.
Clock - KC
User can warp time or freeze it. The User will see everything around themselves as if time had stopped, yet they can move freely about within this stopped time. The User is also able to move objects that are frozen- inanimate or living.
Upon using this, however much time the User was in this frozen time is how much time they would be unconscious immediately after they get out from this frozen time.
Speed - Galxay_Granger
A super-power that allows a person to move faster than humanly possible. While most people can move at 12-15 miles per hour while sprinting, a possessor of super-speed can move much faster. Like the speed of light. Will sometimes give the user a shock and will drain their energy.
Clones - Hunter/Henry
Clone is the ability to duplicate one's self or other objects. The person has to be visually seeing the object to duplicate it meaning no copying something you say as a kid or a few seconds ago. The user can also only create one object only meaning you can create 20 spoons but the moment you make a fork the spoons will disappear. The ability also leads to what the original object was such as you can't control the thing you made its automatically going to have the same memories unless you cloned yourself. The Burnout for this is that the more things the user creates the more exhausted they become and if they create up to 50-60 things they will pass out. Though that doesn't stand for food. if the person ingests food the food will remain even if they make something else.
Glitch - Hunter/Henry
The ability to take control through any electronic device. The user can turn his body into electricity and go into any device to take control of it. If the device is connected to a mass program such as a phone or computer the user can then teleport. The user can also hack easily tough if something has a security the user is faced with creatures that will try to eliminate them if he tries to hack. The burnout is the stronger the security the more likely he can get hurt or killed and if a device is turned off when the user is in it then they will get knocked out and paralyzed for some time depending on the size of the electronic. The user also cant touch water while in electronic form or he will get electrocuted themselves.
Negativity - Lori
User can feel the negativity around them, the ability to control those negative emotions ( anger, depression, hate, pain, ect.) and change them. They can make you feel things, like depression and anger. Then can also give you sensations you don’t like [ex. Having the feeling of being tickled. This only works as long as you don’t really like the feeling] They can very rarely give the sensation of every bone in you body shattering, though nothing is really happening and it only lasts for about 5 seconds, this is highly exhausting, resulting in at least 3-9 days of sleep. They can change positive emotions into negative, but can not change negative into positive.
Mod
the list still continued once again, damn this is getting long
Crystallization - lesha
A person is able to crystallize anything using just a drop of his blood. With just a drop of blood, the blood immediately spreads and crystallized anything it touches. The red/pinkish crystals can be broken with a single touch from the user as well. Blood can be physically smeared(touched or placed on), splattered or flicked, as long as it lands on it's target, it will crystallized. The user has intense hunger after using it because it requires him to, first, open a wound on his body to extract the blood and, two, generate the power to crystallized the blood. Not only that, but he runs the risk of crystallized himself from the inside out if he go beyond his limit of using it three times a day.
Devil Drive - WalkingCrown
A transformation ability that allows a person to take form of a horned creature with wings. The user gains Superhuman strength, Can fly high speeds of 300mph, and can shoot flames from the mouth. The person is still conscious and is in full control of their actions. This transformation only lasts for 5 minutes before the user is back to normal. The user will feel side effects such as: Bodily pain, Fatigue, Nausea or unconsciousness.
Bone Break - quq
a physical ability where the person can manipulate bones. this includes bone-breaking, healing broken bones, and manipulating bones inside bodies. anything made of bone is susceptible as well, such as weapons. if used for a long length of time, or for a manipulation that requires a lot of energy, the user will become extremely tired, possibly even experiencing small rips in their skin from the tension. if the target is not thought through thoroughly, the user risks manipulating the wrong victim or even themselves. this is what takes the most energy and concentration.
Music and Singing - Lori
The user has a perfect pitch and voice. They can play any instrument instinctively. They can also cast spells with their voice, kinda like a siren. They can make you do things, anything, no matter what. It is possible for the user to control this, and the longer the person is under the spell, the harder it is to control it and the more food the user needs. When over used, the user will need large amounts of food and sleep, the user will not be able to speak for a few days afterwards as well
Cryo-paralysis - Xavier
The user has the ability to freeze the water molecules on or in the body of another human's body, freezing them in place and leaving them with a extreme frostbite if the user only lets them go after a long time under their ability. This ability also has the power to be extremely volatile if left in the hands of a careless user for it can quickly or slowly kill the person it's being used on. The drawbacks of this ability are that the longer the user is using their abilities on someone, frostbite will start to creep up your skin and quite literally feel like liquid nitrogen is being pored onto your body, and using this ability very frequently can leave you with medium to extreme bruising, less control over your limbs and body in general, and you will never feel truly warm no matter how hot it gets (which can be a good thing in some situations but you will never have a truly perfect hot shower again!!!!! the horror)
Rubber Banding - Smile
User can manipulate rubber bands into any solid object (no liquid or gas). They shape and form the material, and then may make the rubber stone-hard in the pattern of whatever object they created. Overuse results in an odd variety of side-effects, including (but not limited to) hallucinations, talking backwards, sticking to anything metal, fear of pencils, overuse of the word “like,” etc.
Natural Adaptation - Era
The user can shapeshift parts of their body to adapt to the environment around them - for example, shifting human eyes into cat eyes at night to see in the dark. However, the user can only shift parts of the body and not the whole, and the ability depends on the enviroment - they cannot summon wings at random, they have to be at a height. Overuse causes body aches, upset stomach, skin rash, involuntary movements and eventually paralysis and/or unconsciousness.
Insect Communication - dagger [bing bong]
User can telepathically speak with all kinds of insects, as well as control and command them to do just about anything a swarm of insects is capable of. Overuse results in difficulty breathing, which could lead to the user's death by asphyxiation.
Of All Fae - ☯-urania-☯
As scientists learn of more, their research expand as well as their experiments. User was normally, or as normal as could be, before the mutations started to appear. After years of getting pocked and stabbed by needles, the user was injected with a serum that aloud them to control the elements of life and death, though the user couldn't kill anyone or revive them. One of the head scientists chose the color purple for the user's magic, and they are able to feed off of people's life forces and gain strength from nature as well as other things. Slowly, the serum the user was injected with will make them go insane. The user will also get headaches and if they use enough of their magic, they will need to recharge for days on time or maybe even weeks.
Detachable Limbs - kit
The user is able to detach their limbs and reattach them at will. However, the power can’t be used for long for it might cause nerve damage and will cause complete numbness of the body if use in rapid succession occurs.
Dimensional Pocket Storage - xavier
This user has the ability to open dimensional rifts in the fabric of reality, creating pockets using real world items as a key to unlocking them, being able to use them for storage of unlimited items and organisms. The burnouts of this ability are that the more dimensional pockets that this user makes or the more objects the user puts into their dimensional pockets, the things that the user puts into them will start to phase back into their reality, just appearing randomly around them like your keys falling out of your jeans pocket. The object you are using as your key will also start to get heavier and heavier until you are not able to carry it anymore or are forced to take some things out of your dimensional storage or close up a few pockets altogether.
Headless - noodle
Basically, the "user" is some sort of zombie that survives without its head. The head is the only detachable body part and both the body and the head can survive on their own. The body tends to be more rebellious than the head though and runs around freely. Usually, someone has to help the head get back on the body, or else the head will be just rolling after the body. There aren't really any sort of "powers" but in the brief moments where the body and the head have the same goal, they have the benefit of being able to just throw their head or use the head as a mode of communication.
Loch Ness - noodle
The best deep lake monster ever (Though a lot smaller than said in stories, about the size of a komodo dragon). The user has the ability to shapeshift into a human temporarily, but needs to stay hydrated or they lose their form. It's more of a curse, than a power, as dehydration is easily forgotten and can cause a very... surprising... result.
Memory Imprint - Elizabeth C
User can see peoples' footprints, even when walking over solid ground and not like a substance such as sand, and can train themselves to focus on which ones they want to see. If they step in the footprint, they have access to that person's memories from the past twelve hours, so they know who it is and it's useful for spy work. However, too much memory searching--so stepping in too many footprints--in one day can cause nausea and migraine-like headaches
Bird Humanoid
The user has bird traits, such has feathers on certain parts of the body, wings, and bird like feet. Sense of the user that will be heightened are strength, endurance, sight, and hearing. Hiding this bird like appearance isn't possible and therefore after the first manifestation they aren't able to look like the average human again. Other draw backs are the user will have a generally weaker sense of taste and smell for the most part. To the point that food has little to no taste at all for them. As well as the size of their wings, which can restrict movement, their bone structure being hollow will be quite weak as well.
The ability to bend shadows to the user's will, to give them life. To even converse with them. And to melt into the shadows, traveling extremely quickly through patches of darkness, and reappearing at will. Each time the user melts into shadow, however, they lose a tiny piece of themselves. A memory, a personality trait... At some point, they will simply cease to exist. They will disappear, forever lost in the inky darkness that they spent so much time in.
Mod
i'm not sure how to phrase all this, but here it goes. -omnikinesis: has telekinetic control over everything that can be controlled. drawback is that the more difficult something is to control the more strain you take on.
hyper reflexes: can read a person and can predict their movements ahead of time, like spidey sense.
-healing factor: is able to regenerate tissue and limbs and organs at an incredibly fast pace. drawback is that scars take longer to heal than the wound itself. cannot regenerate life into the body.
-invisibility-can be activated at will. makes the user able to be completely imperceptible to a person.
