Hey all! Since many of you have requested it, I'm going to make a list of General Abilities and Powers.
Keep in mind that the older characters MAY have more than one ability due to experience!
Also, if you decide to declare your character's official powers, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE run it by me first!
Abilities
These are things EVERYONE can acquire, even if it might come more easily than others.
Speed
Strength
Intelligence
Accuracy
Creativity
Use of a Weapon or other instrument
Slight Elemental Control
Flying (Yes, one can direct their energy to propel them off the floor, but it's controlling it that's the hard part).
POWERS
These are things one HAS to be born with. It might not appear until their teens or early adulthood, but the gene MUST be within their body.
Intoxicators- People who have literal poison in their bodies. Intoxicators are usually immune to other intoxicators, but others are not so lucky. People who are born with this ability usually know immediately after birth, due to their tears, sweat, blood, saliva, and... other things... being poisonous. One person is born with their own SPECIFIC poison, and they can register other poisons (from various flora and fauna) by ingesting it somehow (swallowing, injections, etc). From here, they can actually choose which poison they want to use on something or someone, and even combine various ones. They are incredibly dangerous.
Examples: Amneris Mandisa, Haruki Korone
Elementalists- A large group that can control various elements. One person can control one form of an element. It's a very common trait, and most people can usually manipulate their own sync energy to form different elements when they work at it hard enough. The control part is the hardest part. People who are born with the ability immediately have the control factor, which separates them from the others.
Example: Tycho Bjerre (water elementalist)
Psuedoexample: Dmitri Cryroch (ice), Kassandra Ambrosia (fire)
Tamers- A smaller group of people who can control animals as well as transform into them. Not to be confused with a shapeshifter, Tamers are only able to transform and control a specific group of animals (amphibians, fish, birds, reptiles, etc.)
Example: Marina Idrico, Jenny Willow
Illusionists: A rare ability that tends to run in families. It's very self-exclamatory. However, skilled Illusionists are actually able to mess around with someone else by making them actually BELIEVE what they're seeing, and possibly even make them delusional.
Examples: Aidas Magas, Andrei Magas
Emotionalists: A very rare group of people who can manipulate the emotions of themselves and others. It does take a lot of skill to learn how to control this.
Example: Adomas Magas
Recorders: What is assumed to be the rarest of all abilities, Recorders have the ability to record other's memories, and even take memories from other recorders. So naturally, many major events are actually floating around in the heads of recorders. They work with the Holy Guardians.
Example: Darius Mestyciew
Holy Guardians- Just as rare as Recorders, Holy Guardians are often born with a twin or a sibling as a Recorder. They help with anything that involve life and death. If any of you have this ability, you will already know.
Example: Seraphina Angelo
Life Drainer- A double-edged sword of an ability. Once the ability appears, the person affected starts to die, and the pigment actually fades from their features. However, to prevent this, they can feed off other's energies and blood. So essentially, they're vampires.
Example: Andrei Magas
