Superpowers
« on: November 11, 2012, 04:37:11 PM »
Click this link three times and post the results. Then try to come up with an ability which combines them.

For instance:
http://powerlisting.wikia.com/wiki/Domino_Effect
http://powerlisting.wikia.com/wiki/Powers_Via_Object
http://powerlisting.wikia.com/wiki/Nephilim_Physiology

I'd say that would translate into
Quote
An object containing a bound angel, which gives the holder angelic traits. No wings or blazing sword, but it does come with the power of "divine intervention" - they can cause just about anything to happen, but only if it could be explained as a series of coincidences. This power doesn't work retroactively (eg. if the user got lost then they couldn't have a car coincidentally pass by, though they could set things up ahead of time for a car to be there), and may take a while to come into effect. A true angel could pull off quantum-level "coincidences" to do overtly supernatural things like teleportation and shooting lasers, but that's beyond what a human mind is capable of.

CONDUIT OF THE QUANTUM DEVOURER
This power confers the ability to take on the aspect of a horrible creature of near-limitless power: the Quantum Devourer.  This being lurks in several dimensions beyond the usual 4, and can only enter physical reality by projecting its terrible essence onto human conduits.  A transformed Conduit becomes a many-armed figure of pure, black negation.  Its touch is anathema, tearing all matter and energy into its smalles constituent particles, and then absorbing them for sustenance.  The Devourer (and its aspects) can also release beams of pure energy, harnessed from the hearts of a billion dying suns which the Devourer has consumed.

“Hast thou not felt in forest gloom, as gloaming falls on dark-some dells, when comes a whisper, hum and hiss; savage growling sounds a-near, dazzling flashes around thee flicker, whirring waxes and fills thine ears: has thou not felt then grisly horrors that grip thee and hold thee?”

Huh, so I'm apparently a walking energy drink. Damn, "Venom" has already been taken. And "Electrolyte", while being what plants crave, does not sound too super-hero-y. Hmmmm.

I am Seaspray.  I create golems and weapons out of bubbles made of Water 9, with super tensile strength!  Creating bubble shields and rubbery bludgeoning tools to smash my opponents into harder surroundings, these bubbles of science have been imbued with the elemental Undine spirits.  The water purifies the altered and impure, washing away the effects of corruption on reality.  With my Foam Gauntlet and the Undine Crystals, I fight lovecraftian horrors from beyond time and space.

Well that is a nice selection... Not sure those combine though considering Omnipotence covers just about every possible power.

Labyrinthos Missile
This power makes the wielder into the equivalent of an army. Any projectiles they throw, fire, or launch multiply in complex, fractal patterns. A single bullet can become a maelstrom of lead, raining down on the wielder's enemies with such incredible accuracy that only they are harmed despite the overwhelming onslaught. The patterns produced by the Labyrinthos Missile technique always have an opening, but discovering this opening is a difficult task even for those capable of thinking and moving quickly enough to exploit it, as the replication of the bullets follows a complex system which operates according to ever-changing principles.

You have giant spoons which can be used to scoop anything yellow into existence?
Everything is edible. Just that there are things only edible once per lifetime.
It's a god-eat-god world.

Procrastination is the thief of time; Year after year it steals, till all are fled,
And to the mercies of a moment leaves; The vast concerns of an eternal scene.

Conditional Power Manifestations
White Hole Creation
Greed Manipulation

Project Omega-Alpha was concieved from a belief in the fundementally corrupt nature of the universe. The Project aims to trigger a "reboot" of the universe, obliterating all existence and replacing it with an orderly utopia. The conditions necessary for the reboot are to be achieved through a multi-stage plan beginning with the harnessing of the corruption present in all sentient lifeforms. Extreme avarice and materialism expressed over time in a society is the first step to the purging of error in the universe. The Project is currently running slightly ahead of schedule.
*****************************************************************************************************

Shapeshifting Gallery
Joint Manipulation
Reanimation

This alternative to classic reanimation eschews the actual animation of the corpses in question with distinct energies of their own in favor of direct control exerted by the necromancer over the animated corpses' bodily functions. This method requires a constant expenditure of effort from the necromancer but in addition to assuring no accidental loss of control is possible, the direct control exerted over the bodies allows flesh and bone to take on more malleable characteristics, granting the controlled bodies all kinds of shape alteration abilities.

TL:DR, I maekz shapeshifting zombies!
