Just had a couple of thoughts and wanted to see what your responses are.

1 - If you had a super power, which power would it be?
2 - How would you get your power?
3 - How would you use your power?

4 - Do any of your characters have this power?
5 - If yes to #4, how did they get their power?
6 - If yes to #4, how do they use their power?



-------------------------------------------

My responses -

#1 - If you had a super power, which power would it be?

I would have the power of healing by touch.

#2 - How would you get your power?

Either by mutation (I.E. X-Men), or being given it by either an alien, divine being, or Native American shaman.

#3 - How would you use your power?

I'd first want to heal my relatives of anything that ailed them. I would then become a traveling healer and go around the country using my power to cure anyone I could.

#4 - Do any of your characters have the same power you picked in #1?

Quad can weakly heal wounds with his Grand Talux powers, but his powers are more used to burn away Iugulare's infection on victims. Victor does have the power of healing by touch.

#5 - If yes to #4, how did they get their power?

Quad's Grand Talux powers were given to him by the Twin Gods, as he is their champion and savior to face Iugulare and her infection. Victor's powers were given to him by a Native American shaman, who gave him the gift as a form of compensation for him being born mute.

#6 - If yes to #4, how do they use their power?

Quad's light burns away Iugulare's infection, and can be used both as rays of light and as light bursts depending on the circumstances. Victor heals anyone he sees that is injured by touching them with his face or body.

Hmm.. Shape shifter..

#2 - How would you get you power?
Being blessed by an ancient animal god. To have the ability to take form of a creature.

#3 - How would you use your power?
Attacking enemies, for fun xD to explore the exciting wild.

#4 - Do any of your charaters have the same power you picked in #1?
Somewhat, Shimmer can shift into a morbid beast haha. (Dragon, Wolf, Doe)

#5 - If yes to #4, how did they get their power.?
Birth, or the Shadows Gift, blessed to her went she was a young fawn, barely able to stand.

#6 - If yes to #4, how do they use their power?
It is 100% incontrollable, it is caused by aggression. She uses the gift to protect her, and it will take time to blow over when fully transformed.

1 - If you had a super power, which power would it be?
Psychokinesis, baby.

2 - How would you get your power?
More than likely through years and years of solitary confinement, probably in a medical setting after suffering incomprehensible forms of torture in relation to some sort of rare brain defect that wayward scientists feel they should manipulate into something of a 'weapon' to protect them (unnecessarily) from other countries or invaders from space who already have mastered that technology.

3 - How would you use your power?
Lay around on my bed using it for crap like bringing my water bottle closer or drawing with my eyes closed. Look ma, no hands.

1. Any superpower? The power

1. Any superpower? The power to see strict truth. I'm not sure how this would manifest, but essentially I would be able to tell when a statement was true, and when it was false.

2. Acquiring this power? Perhaps a freak accident/Jedi mind-trick gone wrong/hypnosis? Who knows really, but I see it as being an unexpected side effect of something else.

3. Use? I see it being a minor power, but useful in solving problems, doing science, recognizing decency and hopefully just doing good. I don't want to interfere with other people do, but I would want to be able to tell truth from falsehood.

4. Any characters? No, although it would be an interesting idea. Perhaps alongside the restriction that the character can only speak/represent the truth.

Interesting ideas Quad. Smiling

Aw, such a difficult

Aw, such a difficult question. There's so many good ones.

I'd probably stick with the one I've got... Twisted
(a joke of course, to explain why my brother always needs to shoo me from the room when he gets stuck on one of his video games XD)

1. Control of Luck - ability to subtlety affect the outcome of events by manipulating chance.

2. Born with it, but unaware of it's existence until a mysterious stranger happens along to teach me how to use it. (I'm a sucker for that plot device)

3. To win bets at horse races or sports (etc.) for extra cash, or to deal out inconveniences on those that just plain tick me off.

4. No but... Wouldn't that be interesting?

5&6. Probably same as me.
