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.

Liz is a pyrokinetic and she is capable of both the creation and manipulation of fire even though her control isn't very good because she doesn't really understand her abilities. If she's under considerable emotional stress she will experience an uncontrollable fire burst. This has happened a few times in her canon (once when she was 11 when she killed 32 people after rocks were thrown at her, and twice in her twenties when she killed 6 BPRD Agents in an abandoned warehouse and when she was staying at a mental hospital where her powers activated following Rasputin's influence to relive the moments of her first fire burst.)

In the first movie Liz was shown to be getting better control of her powers but in the second one she had much more control. In terms of FH canon Liz is now more confident with her powers even though a fire burst can still be triggered if she gets extremely emotional. She is also more accepting of the fact that she does have powers and is more willing to reveal that she has them.
