Personality Powers (Not as easy as it sounds)

[BathorysGraveland]

Well, I'm quite selfish, so I could have a power that is thrown at enemies which makes them incredibly selfish themselves, and so they would fight amongst each other as they want all the rewards for themselves, or something like that. Create some infighting, if you will

 

[scarecrow350]

Personally I always feel best when i know i have the edge on someone, so maybe the ability to do unexpected bullshit

 

[AngloDoom]

I'm super unremarkable with a perchance for defeatism.

My own super-power would be the ability to blow myself, and only myself, up but I never bother because bleh.

 

[Redingold]

I'm so stubborn I can make myself immobile, and my pedantry allows me to be incredibly precise when it comes to weaponry.

Drawback: I'm sometimes so stubborn I might get stuck in immobile form.

 

[Donnie Restad]

I'm usually pretty smart, and I usually have a good idea of what's going on, but that leads me to be very absent-minded about waaayyy too many things.

I suppose if that were to transfer to a power, I could have short bursts of super speed, but there's always a chance that I'm going in the completely wrong direction.

 

[(sic) humor]

I remember reading a book as a kid called Hidden Talents about a kid with the ability to say just the right thing to piss other people off (though eventually he learns how to work it in reverse).

I could see myself doing that. Coupled with some poor impulse control, this could make for some awkward social situations.

 

[Lt._nefarious]

I have a very odd personality and I tend to be very passively aggressive towards my peers but above all I'm self obsessed so my power would be to drain other people of their spirit and make myself better i.e. stronger if I absorb a sporty person, smarter if I absorb a smart person and even more feminine if I absorb a lady. The downside would be I'd probably go insane and/or evil.

 

[Cranky]

I'd make everyone in a radius butthurt, groggy or utterly crushed by lack of motivation.

 

[Wolfram23]

I have a lot of patience so I could like... use the Force.

 

[Blondefool]

I would probably make people lose confidence: Id be the ultimate demotivational poster

 

[Patrick Buck]

I'm a little bit random. So making random weird stuff happen.

Or then again, my faverate hobby is annoying people. So making people hate me.

Wait. I can already see the flaws in that one... :/

 

[ToxicOranges]

It's difficult really to decide... generally labelled as stubborn, blunt, arrogant, intelligent, funny...
I guess my stubbornness comes out the most, that, and loud I can be.

I'd love either the ability to argue or talk my way out of any situation, or a mouth that doubles as a loudspeaker for anything I'm listening to through my headphones (which are on 24/7 )

 

[Timberwolf0924]

The power to manipulate people or make my vivid imagination come to life.

 

[templar1138a]

I'm a chronic procrastinator. My power would most likely be to repeat chunks of time while remembering what happened in previous cycles. Think of "Groundhog Day," both for how that would work and the problems it would present.

I'm also strongly connected to my sense of hearing, since not only are my ears sharp and my memories are most often triggered by sound, but I am often affected viscerally by sounds and music. Perhaps my alternative/secondary power would be the ability to further hone in on particular sounds (for instance, pick out a conversation from the opposite side of a loud, crowded room) and have a better memory of what I hear. Obviously this would present some huge issues at first, given that without changing the laws of physics for the sake of entertainment, there is no way to "zoom in" on a microphone, and the same goes for ears; every sound that's caught within the polar pattern will be registered. I guess the best way to put it would be that I'd have the ability to adjust the polar patterns of my ears. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microphone#Microphone_polar_patterns

 

[Ryuo]

Well. I guess I have a strange (uncommon at least?) form of psychopathic personality. I'm extremely manipulate(to be fair human nature is to look out for oneself in the least.) Say/Become anything to achieve the desired results in getting what I want from others. I also tend to be reflective on everything I do. I hold grudges indefinitely. I have a superb memory for the visual and auditory. I cannot see the patterns in things however (Mathematic formulas and the like, I cannot make heads or tails of.) and only understand well, things that have set rules (Biology, Languages, these are things I can understand very well). Now the flip side, the strange side to being a manipulative bastard. I have empathy, but only to people I know really well. The more I get to know someone. (Like really know them. Dark secrets, fears, etc.) The more guilt I feel in manipulating them. But I still do it. Self-destructive I guess. I have friendships, with an extremely small amount of people. I am a bit of a 'Me Monster' to those who know me.

On to the point of all that self-awareness. (I've slowly been breaking the manipulative nature, but it is a hard thing, to change your own personality) I guess I would have the power to have people do whatever I tell them to. But the more I do so, the less they would do for themselves. I would end up having to tell them to keep themselves alive. So I get what I want at the price of maintaining anyone I manipulated more than once. Powerful guilt would keep me from letting them die.

I would very much not want that power. I suppose it would be keen if I didn't give a flying fuck. Alas, I do.

 

[Mr.Squishy]

Hm...I dunno, there's a lot of potential ones for me. My extreme forgetfulness would probably allow me to project a field of short-term memory-erasing energy or something like that.
Alternatively, I overthink and analyze a lot, so perhaps the ability to sense extra information about things around me?
Also, I'm a good listener, so I'd imagine that could perhaps give enhanced hearing, or maybe improved empathy or something.

 

[asylumsweetie]

I have an anxiety disorder that makes me more or less terrified all the time. So I imagine my power would be either spreading my hysterical fear to those around me or, even worse, bringing the things I'm terrified of into reality.

There is no way either of those would ever get any better with practice. My life would just be a nightmare from then on. I guess that would make me a villain?

 

[phantasmalWordsmith]

I would be able to make everything slow down, calm itself and become lazy.

Yeah. That's me

 

[Captain Anon]

fire powers. i'd have complete control over fire, they be my plaything, i could do what ever i wanted with them. why? i guess because i'm hard to make angry but when i do get angry i rain hell fire from the sky full on wrath style like flaming meteors and the like.

 

[Ruedyn]

I am a manipulative person, so I guess mind control. To avoid low content I'm also very cool headed and have a love of puns, so ice powers.
