The superpower idea sharing thread

then that isn’t a power and then entirely irrelevant to the prompt, not sure what you’re trying to accomplish then

What about the power to bend light? You can move light as you please telepathically

Maybe you could blind people, or make yourself invisible

The power of taking objects or things you see in your dreams, and being able to use it in the real world.

I mean you could probably blind people if the area is well lit
making yourself invisible wouldn’t work as the distortion would still be visible

too vague, too powerful, too open ended, and not even remotely viable for any type of story

like let’s say you had a dream involving WW2, you could resurrect hitler, much much too powerful and open ended

Yeah I thought it would be cool though

The ability to turn your opponents greatest fears or nightmares into real, but temporary, things.

How you would know what they’re afraid of is through touching them.

The ability to invert matter

first, COMBINE POSTS
don’t split every single reply like that

secondly, too powerful and still boring and lame as shit
everyone would be scared of a giant planet sized mosquito for instance, too many implications

What about you can change the color properties of anything touching your skin at will, so the colors it absorbs I guess

You could make funny handprints on the wall or something but it’s super useless

The ability to control heat perception in opponents

Can cause them to burn up or freeze

“Can you turn up the thermostat?”

Ok makes you feel hotter

perception wouldn’t do much, nor would this power be really useful or anything

obviously I can make someone feel cold as shit but they wouldn’t really be cold as shit

same thing with heat, you could trick their body into sweating but you wouldn’t accomplish much

The ability to manipulate spring tension, for transportation and combat.

Essentially you can build up spring tension in your arms, when you release it on an opponent or object, they can get knocked back significantly farther than without.

You can also super jump with this.

The ability to make other powers lame and pointless, but you don’t have any ability of your own

stop making separate posts for each and every of these low effort “powers”

this would be incredibly useless on any realistic note, bullets still hit you
overall still lame and pointless

Ok but like just because bullets can hit you doesn’t make the power bad

That’s like saying fire manipulation sucks because the user can get shot

that means it’s useless even in the context of a fight, which would be the only practical use
real fights don’t work with bullshit anime superpower battles anyways, shits fast and instinct driven

if a person could create and control fire for instance yet still couldn’t outperform a gun in combat, what’s the point???

You could also make it go the other way around,

Someone with coil or spring powers could outperform a gun user if they are good at it.

Tbh, I think superpowers depend on the user, if the user is bad, the power is bad, if the user is strong the power is strong.
