Character Ability Tally!! (because the memes weren't eating your afternoon enough)

WATCH ME SHAMELESSLY USE THE SAME POST AGAIN.

(I wrote it. I'm allowed to cannibalize it. Hush.)

In an effort to keep things a little more organized for plottishness and so on, we're going to ask a quick favor of you all.

Could you please reply to each appropriate comment below, and let us know what kind of powers/abilities/etc your character possesses? This is for all characters - students/alumni, teachers and townies - and covers everything including especially good researching/support skills, magic, skill with weaponry, mutations and so on. This is mandatory for all characters, and we would appreciate it ASAP though there is no specific deadline.

Anything that is a canon1 power or ability of your character and could be used in a plot in some way, please list below in the correct thread. Temporary powers for specific plots do not need to be noted now.

Please be as thorough as possible, as this will help everyone out with plots and knowing who can fill what roles.

Thank you so much in advance for taking the time to do this!

(And naturally, there will be threads, so please wait for the rather long OCD or I will have to kill something Done! Have at it.)

1 In this instance, "canon" does refer to FH canon as well. If your character at this time has honed their fighting skills or anything like that, please do make sure to note that. For guidelines on characters picking up abilities, please see this post.

2 For those of you who had characters around the last couple years and just want to C&P what you put in the post then, here are some shiny links for you.

Claire's got almost nothing. She's a gifted artist and photographer, in case we ever have an invasion of something whose soul is really stolen with a camera lens. She can drive, too, and she's not freaked out by dead bodies or gore in general. Beyond that, nada.

fjkdsahfkdehfjkehjakfhdjsakFHDJkfhdjHF JKDshf kdljH FJKDSf OKAY LET ME START WITH THIS ONE FIRST TO GET MY KEYSMASHY OUT OF THE WAY.

Thanks to years of Kryptonite exposure and the fact that her mother was also a krypto-freak, Chloe has developed an ability which the writers refer to as super empathy. If Chloe touches someone who's injured, she can transfer their injury to herself, leaving them completely healed. Then, she can heal herself and the injuries she transferred relatively quickly. If she touches someone who died, she brings them back to life, but dies herself. The more she does this, the longer she stays dead though, so it's something she's only willing to use if it's absolutely necessary.

Hoshi is a linguistic genius. She can rapidly pick up a new language. She's also got super-sensitive hearing and the ability to recreate sounds that humans normally can't make, which is an asset with it comes to alien languages.

For people who are Earth-based, she can determine their origin from the way they speak.

She's also good with research when needed.

Fraser's got the requisite hand to hand combat training he's learned at the RCMP academy. He's also got some boxing skills.

Meg has two well armed, well trained NPC Secret Service agents following her around.

Fraser's good with handguns and rifles. He carries a .38 but can also use a Sig Sauer very well.

Fraser has the power of BEING REALLY GODDAMN CANADIAN.

He knows ASL and can speak Chinese, French, Greek, Latin, Russian, Spanish and Tsimshian.

He's been injured A TON but always recovers. He's very resilient.

Tyler can hold, aim, and shoot a gun, but he's far from an expert shot.

Edit: He's also an explosives/demolitions expert, especially with homemade bombs. He's not infallible, but he's very good.

Meg's very well read, particularly political stuff. And she's got pretty decent research skills.

Ichigo is a shinigami which means a fair number of things so I will try to sum this up as best as I can:

1) Ichigo can see ghosts.
2) With the help of his badge (or other shinigami), he can leave his body to become a shinigami (think of spirits or guardian angels). He can touch and influence things both in the spiritual as in the living world while he is in this form. So when he is in a fight, the damage he does will influence his surroundings.
3) As soon as he leaves his body, Ichigo will be in possession of his zanpakutou (aka soul cutter). This is a sword with its own mind as you will. Every shinigami has his own zanpakutou which grants him a very distinct power. Ichigo's allows him to send a blast a very high spiritual energy at his opponent (with the result of making things go boom, think lightning if you want).
4) Ichigo can reach 'bankai' which is a higher level of strength. It will make his attack described above more powerful. It will also make him very, very, fast.
5) All these skills are only available to him when he's in spirit form. When he's just him, he can't use these attacks. (He can still see ghosts and spirits however.)

For his world, Tyler's a damn good fighter -- he's fearless and resilient, and he's been doing it since he was 14. And he fights dirty.

But he's not military or superpowered, so he keeps getting his ass kicked in Fandom.

Fraser's very observant and sees things that most people don't do. He's very, very thorough.

He's also an exceptional mediator and has the ability to talk down those in the highest stress situations.

He's also got basic first aid skills.

Isabel is telekinetic and capable of manipulating a number of objects at a time.

She's capable of creating a force field that will stop anything dangerous from touching her, i.e. flames, thrown things, etc.

She can also manipulate and change matter just by touching it and concentrating. She's very, very skilled at that.

It's also canon (at least per the Roswell post series books) that she can cause hair to grow, be it facial or a head of hair.

Tyler Durden is Tyler Durden.

Which means that, while he rarely taps into this side of himself, he could get an army together in 48 hours if he wanted to. People listen to the guy.

Adam is familiar and well trained in fighting with swords. He'd rather not fight with them if he can avoid it, but he very capable of using them should the need arise. He can also fight effectively with a staff.

Re: Fighting Abilities

[identity profile] im-afrog.livejournal.com 2008-09-05 09:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Adam is a disciplined and skilled fighter and specializes in the style of Shaolin Kung Fu. That being said, Adam has also picked up a few other types of fighting styles from training with his close friends, Tommy and Rocky (karate).

Adam is an efficient fighter in hand to hand combat. He's got quick reflexes and was trained to fight in the ways of the ninja, while living in Stone Canyon. Adam is used to going up against people and things that are bigger and stronger than he, and he knows his strengths and limits.

Gavin's exceptional with blasters (sidearm mostly, but he can also knew the longblaster and minicanon). He's a novice with explosives but he is learning.

Roy can handle guns just fine. Yay military training. He just doesn't like using them.

Gavin's trained in hand to hand combat through his military. He also grew up on Tatooine with a lot of kids so he's probably got some brawling in him too.

[identity profile] light-a-spark.livejournal.com 2008-09-05 09:14 pm (UTC)(link)
Being military, Roy's had hand-to-hand combat training and can stand his own. It's just not his favourite attack.

Gavin's a half decent researcher and has show the ability to think outside the box a few times canonically.
