A bard
Literally a fucking bard

come up with your own fucking idea then, jesus christ, did you just come into this thread to shit on everything that gets posted while only contributing snide remarks and worthless criticism?

The ability to make people turn into snails when they look at a rainbow

The power to come up with amazing lies people believe but only if you figure out their bias first
For example you can convince religious people you spoke to god but not an atheist

> they call him "Silvertongue"

the power to shapeshift into a little girl
the power to hide anything
the power to alter other peoples speech
the power to make peoples hair come to life and attack them

All of your ideas are horrible and you should give up.

No, it's you make them believe that they are snails so much that they become snails. You're literally brainwashed by the rainbows.

the power of making water change state at any time like made water freeze or become steam and the same for steam or ice
the power of making someone thoughts audible for everyone around him
the power of making anything rotate
the power of making someone really sticky and smelly

the power to make people afraid of the future
the power to make any surface sharp
th power to make everyone smile non stop

The power to read the minds of other people, but only the depressing thoughts.

the power to summon old forgotten celebritys
the power of making a product sound irressistible
the power of making anyone instantly naked

Your body generates a tremendous amount of life-saving energy, but only when you are badly injured to the point of death or near death.

Until such injury, you are just a normal guy. But after being rekt, within about a minute there is a surge of energy that can grow back your body from nothing.

For a short period of time after resurrecting, you are superhumanly strong, fast, and tough. This supercharge bleeds off over time. With training, you can harness this excess energy to channel it into healing someone else or expending it on a crude energy attack.

Dying again while already supercharged just brings you back with exponentially more power. You have trouble controlling your power after just 2 deaths, 3+ deaths usually ends in catastrophe for everything around you as you discharge randomly.

In theory, if someone could kill you enough times at your increasing levels of power, you would just explode and never reform. Dead for real.

the power to make anyone think he is a superhero

The ability to invade and control other's dreams while sleeping, but you have intense bouts of insomnia and only the most powerful horse tranquilizers can knock you out.

At your touch, you can open anything.

And I do mean anything. Its not just locks or doors, your power operates on the metaphysical concept of open and closed.

You can open someones mind, or just open every wound they ever have had. Or open their ribcage like a door.

Because of the nuance of your power, you rarely know exactly what will happen if you use it for any purpose beyond the obvious. Sometimes you open things you really rather would have stayed closed.

Most of the powers in Worm

would ice tea give ice powers?

Impact makes you stronger, punch a wall, you hand becomes hard as cement. Hit by a car, you become durable as steel. but it wears off and works kinda like chi, so a bullet will rip right through you.

the power to turn anyone into a nazi so you can punch them

Similar to Sebastian Shaw but more restrictive?

Yeah, but you still are too weak to cause them actual harm.

The ability to warp reality, however you want to, so long as no one sees you doing it or notices its effects.

Spoonikinesis
>Actually not so lame when you realize that no other character in the setting has anywhere near this level of TK, and spoons aren't hard to find in the middle of a city.

as a movement no
but it still hurts

The power to force reality to obey your perspective

I.E. You know that trick where you pretend to squish something that's really far away? That, but it really squishes.

Would you get this power through NANOMACHINES?

Wasn't this in the Heroes comics?

The power to move you

You have a very specific and embarrassing subset of reality manipulation. You can, within a very short range, reach out with your mind and unlock someone's inner world and unleash it on the real one. Their strongest desires shape the people and world around them for a brief period of time.

This is embarrassing, because such desires are almost always specific and personal. By which I mean: yes, its probably going to be their fetish. It isn't always, but a solid 7 times out of 10 its a fetish.

The other 3 times, you usually wish it was just their fetish. Because those times its probably rooted in some deep seated trauma or occasionally psychosis. So your options are weird and sexual, incredibly fucking depressing, or just absolute nightmare fuel. Regardless of the variety of it, the person who you unlocked doesn't actually control what is happening, this just sort of vomits out of them and into the real world for a little while. How long it last depends on how strongly they want it.

And, ha ha, you only have a very vague idea of what you are going to get when you unlock someone, if you have any idea at all! And you can't use your power to unlock yourself.

How about the power to kill a yak from 200 yards away?
WITH MIND BULLETS

The ability to see through other people's eyes, but only if you can see that person

Yeah half of them are fucking perfect for this thread

You are Bruce Banner's Gamma Bomb for canines in your vicinity. You don't exactly control dogs but understand and can communicate with them better then any human alive, so they quickly love you and are easily trained by you. However you can't understand human emotions and desires fully anymore, and are severely impaired in any social interactions with them, as you are no longer wired to understand your own species.

GDI, the picture.

> GDI

The power to be the second best at everything.

The power to have any element change it's state of matter. (ie. change mercury from liquid to solid, oxygen from gas to liquid, carbon from solid to gas)

>Hitler isn't German but instead an Austrian Jew
>I make people go to Sup Forums
>I make people stay on Sup Forums

Am I doing it right?

Are these real?
Also does this sound familiar?
Character has the ability to teleport anywhere so long as they're not seen?

You forgot to add the world pol in the dictionary as a hate symbol next to pepe the frog

Can you chain this effect together? Like if the person you're looking at can see a third person that's otherwise out of your line of sight, can you see through their eyes too?

That's almost Mr. Terrific, but he's third best.

The power to give yourself autism
It only
It
1 2 3
It only works once

>The ability to manipulate electricity but your skin is not an electrical isolant so every time you use your powers it also harms you

Superhuman speed, reflexes and agility depending on the phase of the sun. Powers activates at dawn and continues to grow as the day progresses. It peaks at noon and start decreasing at afternoon. And finally deactivates at evening. Powers start at Quicksilver tier, peaks at Flash tier and finally ends at default human tier.

I would love it if this power "surfs" and you can't just return your vision to your own eyes. If you're looking through someone who closes their eyes, you're trapped there.

That's actually cool as fuck.
Kudos, user.

>you live in a world where most villains are stronger than you
>at baseline powers you can lift 2 tons, run 400 mph, pretty damn agile.
>strength only increases when in near death or in excruciating life threatening pain.
for example
>Have all ribs broken and lungs are punctured while sleep deprived you'll be able to throw buses like footballs.
You can heal from your injuries but the healing is even MORE painful than the actual injury itself.

Mystery Men had this.

The power to make anyone you want dab.

Jojo is fucking stupid after Part 3.

part 3 is the worst one

That was invisibility wasn't it, bro?

you're the worst one

>I swear that's what they really call me
>For some reason I believe you

Sorry, I misread.
It was indeed invisibility.
>bro
Don't, user. Just don't.

This one's really good

The ability to instantly teleport anywhere, but the teleportation will be as physically taxing as if you had walked/climbed/swam there yourself.

Pretty good for saving time, but still burning calories.

Is this from anything? It's actually really cool sounding.

So is it what's on their mind or their inner self expanded into reality?

So you basically need to be wearing copper wires at all times?

You got it user. I came up with the idea for this power when I was a kid and wanted to stop being fat. I'm still fat

So you can use it to open legs? What an XXX rated power!

The power to copy other people's powers after you eat them. You can eat a rotten and old corpse too if you want and it'll still work.
The more you eat the more hideous and unstable you become.

The power to make pocket dimensions in closable objects.

Con Man!

So you can make bags of holding and similar objects?

The power to be OP but not be a faggot.

Come on now, let's at least just be a little realistic here.

He'd have a villain with the opposite affliction: they activate when the moon becomes visible, increase through the night, and wane as the moon sets.

You could also have both of them tied into the greater sun/moon cycles: the hero's powers wax and wane as the year goes through the Solstices and Equinoxes, the villain's powers cycle with the phases of the moon over a month, etc.

Maybe the origin is the villain was doing some arcane solar/lunar-based ritual to grant him ultimate power when the guy who becomes the hero somehow interfered, resulting the mystical powers being split between them.

I really liked Chevalier's power. The ability to combine sufficiently similar objects, then choose which properties of said items apply to the final product. Difficult to apply well, and it doesn't really scream 'implacable knight-errant', but that's how it ended up, and it was awesome.

Would he be THE DAYMAN

Hmm. Wouldn't this fuck up the world really fast, though, as you reshape the world in impossible ways?

The ability to run non-realtime mental simulations in which you can gain no NEW information, but have perfect recall of all memories. Nothing that happens to you in the simulation carries over, but you remember everything that happened in it.
Not great for crimefighting, but fuck if it wouldn't make normal life ez mode.
>skim a book then spend 12 mental-hours poring over it, only a few seconds pass in real life
>master any dexterity-based skill "instantly" by spending hours practicing it inside your head before trying it in real life
>always have the best possible comeback/argument/introduction as you can spend ages thinking of good ones
>if ever feeling stressed or angry call up happiest memory or construct a new one
I think a lot about this

The ability to see the past of an object/location/person. You touch a dollar bill and you can see where it's been every moment of its existence. You enter a room and you can watch what happened in that room ever since it was built.

Similarly, the ability to see the circumstances of a photograph. You could look at a picture and see what was happening around it when it was taken. You can zoom in and out, rotate around characters, look at the photographer, stuff like that. It would be useful for investigations. Want to know who killed JFK? Watch the Zapruder film in high quality, from any angle, and trace the path of the bullets back to their source.

That's not a unique power. That's just a weird arbitrary restriction on a common power.
Weird would be something like the ability to expel the alcohol in your blood in the form of streams of fire.

If done right that'd be an amazing comic/short film. Protag gains that power, fucks up irrevocably, gets black-bagged to secret facility with restraints after accidental rampage

You can get the standard superhero power set (strength, speed, invulnerability) but it's powered by shame.

To activate your powers you have to tell at least one other person something shameful or embarrassing. It has to be a different thing each time, but it could be the same person. You'd then get the powers for a set time, let's say an hour.

The more people who hear or know about your shameful thing, the longer your powers last. But if you ever learn to get over or accept that shameful thing, you lose your powers.

...

>the power to mimic the voice of anyone you have had a conversation with
>the power to spawn an infinite number of blankets
>the power to shut down medium to small sized electronics from anywhere

>The ability to use your fingerless hands as if you had fingers.

How long do you have to talk to them for it to count as a conversation? If I could heckle some celebrities and then do flawless impersonations I'd make some cash
