Unofficial Powers and Abilities Addition Thread Infinite

We literally do
Well, then edit the page or something, the page currently says the exact opposite, and it'd be quite counterproductive to have a standard that we basically do the inverse of:
"However, simply overwhelming something with Hax stronger than what they can resist normally wouldn't qualify"

Unless you mean as in "we already respect that", in which case I guess I have plenty of CRTs to do.
 
No, that's not it lmao. That's talking about cases like "Yeah I hit you with a galaxy-strong mindhax so your baseline resistance isn't enough", not "You resist mindhax but I can overpower that but have no better feats".
 
Gonna ask again, is relieving someone of a corruptive mind control via fighting without knocking them out (cause sometimes KOing can reverse effects) count as like some kind of purification?
 
Most often than not that's just a weakness of the ability, rather than an actual ability of the user being at play, unless it's explained that way or so of course.
 
Regarding meteor manipulation. i think Celestial manipulation could be a name so it also includes people who can also move celestial bodies, Asteroid to planet , to sun to constellation to galaxies.
I still really like this idea. Lot of characters have instances of messing with celestial objects in non-specific ways (Touhou has characters who can vaguely create constellations and move planets, and I'm pretty sure Castlevania and Elden Ring have feats of moving meteors and stars through unknown means and using them in attacks), so having an ability that covers them is probably better than just going "yeah it's probably telekinesis/gravity manip/summoning" without much basis.
 
well not necessarily just moving them. I know some fiction being able to change their sizes and such as well but is unable to change sizes for others or themselves. The Proposition is there but what it encompasses and its capability could be worked on or discussed imo
 
Would a power for weapons that can only be wielded by select individuals be possible? It sounds pretty specific but when you think about it there's dozens of examples (Master Sword, Mjolnir, stuff like that) and nothing we really have covers that.
 
I'd be fine with that power so long it's requested in the power page to specify how it's exactly bound to an user (as in, what traits it requests to be used or the like), or otherwise who. Consequences for someone else not qualified to use it trying to do so may also be worth to mention.
I think something like "Chosen Weapon" would fit more given how it's often portrayed.

Personally I think is unecessary, that trait can easily be described in the weapon's section within Notable (or Optional) Equipment.
 
Eh, it's an ability (of the weapon), fits P&A imo

I mean, all powers should have specifications if possible

I have no opinions on the title
 
It is an extremely popular trope, but it does seem easier to just list that in the standard equipment section.
 
It's more of a characteristic of the weapon than the character, but we do count weapon P&A. And yeah it can be listed in equipment but it feels more professional this way to me

Wouldn't that technically be an application of whichever ability the weapon uses to prevent getting wielded?
Like, in classical Marvel Mjölnir's case it's limited weight manipulation for Mjölnir. In Master's case it's whatever you want to equate getting smited by god to etc.
 
Well sometimes it's just the weapon not working properly which isn't a P&A, or sometimes it's just not explained. Plus, even if that was the case something like Chosen Weaponry and Density Manipulation (Mjolnir can only be lifted by someone who is worthy) wouldn't look out of place.

Something like "Chosen Weaponry (Mjolnir is unable to be lifted by someone unworthy)" while also linking to density manip makes sense

Not only would it include "Chosen Weaponry" (or whatever the name would be) but also explains the application and links to an equivalent ability that it doesn't quite have outside of being wielded
 
Couldn't we apply this to more than just weapons?
For example, the Moon-and-Star ring can only be worn by the Nerevarine.
 
I dunno the example but yeah, it could apply to other stuff, I can think of one example with armor.
 
I'd imagine Exclusivity on a technique or ability would be more of a Limited Resistance to Power Mimicry, but if not I also gave a few characters to give it to

Honestly, "Various Fire Emblem characters" would be appropriate for all forms of it, even

Not really, as it's not something that on its own would fall as Weapon Control, given that it's just a fancy way of saying "telekinesis or transformation to a specific weapon", while "a weapon being unable to be used by someone else" is quite different to say the least.
 
Sounds like we could honestly factor that under Blessing. The weapon chooses who to grant access to its power or even simply itself as if blessing them. That or we could put it under Power Bestowal. Since it feels like Power Bestowal with conditions for the most part.
