Power Suggestion Meme
The Power Suggestion Meme
(DO YOU KNOW HOW HARD IT WAS TO FIND AN APPROPRIATE GIF FOR THIS MEME)
So coming up with new powers to gain in Cosmographia can be pretty hard. Maybe you're fresh out of ideas, and Superpower Wiki isn't giving you any good hits. Thankfully, you're in a game with a bunch of super creative people whose brains you can pick to see what powers they think would be a good match for your character -- and likewise, if you have a neat suggestion for them, you can let them know!
This meme is pretty simple! There's just a few steps;
• Post a toplevel comment with your character. List any current powers they have and any planned trajectory you have in mind for them, power wise or in terms of character growth and development.
• Comment around and people up with powers you think would suit their characters. These can be either silly or serious -- just have fun with it!
• actually now i think about it there's really only two steps uhhh GO WILD I GUESS AND BE MOST EXCELLENT TO EACH OTHER

I've got two powers in mind for her during the next few months; soothing touch, which is basically an upgrade to her soothing voice power. it has the same effect, but works with physical contact instead. the effect's more pronounced with affectionate physical contact, especially if it's a person she's fond of.
The second one is familiar summoning where she'll be summoning TEENY GEM CATS. some of them will be her cats from back home and the rest will be cats based on people she's met around Waverly Bay.
IN TERMS OF POWERS THAT'D BE COOL the character/power arc I had in mind for her would lend itself well to creative empathy/healing powers, but i would also love to hear what kind of powers you guys would think suit her from what you've seen in game
Labrys
I don't really have anything planned for her apart from this super cool power that was suggested last time so really i'm just excited to see what neat stuff you guys have to suggest for me :3c
Naomi Kimishima | Trauma Team (CRAU)
However, if you don't wanna click the link, a brief summary of her powers would be barriers, healing, and slowing down time. Her weapon(s) is/are scalpels which she can draw multiple of since a surgeon should never work with one.
I intend to upgrade her healing first and time manipulation last. I would like to make a power that dampens mental invasion and empathy powers on her which is detrimental, but despite her update, Naomi's still a secretive individual. As for something else, I was thinking of something with her minor ability with ghosts, but I can't figure out how to word it. Besides those directions, I'm open to new suggestions or even how to combine all of these into one cohesive power gain.
Gaige
Level one: Produces electricity and can shoot small balls of it.
Level two: Electrical shield to protect one person either herself or someone else.
Level three: Magnitism up to ten feet.
For gains I was looking to get Deathtrap back though I'm not sure how many points that would cost.
I am open to other suggestions of course.
Harley Quinn
Hammer: Her mallet can shrink to throwing size, or grow to be a two handed power house. It can also transform into a pogo stick that can launch her high up into the air.
Glitter Bombs: Harley can summon up to three bombs of concussive damage and glitter.
Hammerspace: Harley can stash a ton of items inside her gem and regularly carries around all sorts of things.
Naoto Shirogane | Persona 4 Golden (CRAU)
To summarize here, uncontrollable plant manipulation unless she's emotionally invested in whatever is occurring such as a fight. As for the standard abilities, she now summons a gun, and shapeshifts so bubbling and fusion are still to come.
Right now, I have in mind her being able to summon her Persona, but more in a familiar summoning sense. I liken it to the way of Toothiana from ROTG has her swarm of fairies, so Naoto would be able to summon a swarm of small Persona-like fairies. As well, another power I was considering was like the abilities she can learn in game to buff/debuff, protect, or just generally devastate with a more fantasy flash. Outside of that, open to suggestions though I don't foresee any real Healing abilities.

AS FOR FUTURE POWERS my original intention was for her to basically become a magical girl with crystal and music magic based powers and maybe a star motif?? apart from that though i don't have a whole lot of focused ideas so COME AT ME

Amethyst
Whip: She can summon two whips, and use them to create her whiplash energy attack.
spindash: She can turn into a whirling ball of destruction like a big purple hedgehog.
Gravity manipulation: She can control her own personal gravity allowing her to float or be super heavy.
Trixie
Fireworks: Trixie can produce brightly colored low damage fireworks from her horn gem. Great for distractions but not so great for combat.
I do think I'll give her the ability to fly using her guitar ala FLCL style.
Other then that she'll want her telekinesis back too.
What else do you think?
Peridot
-Shapeshifting(Does not know how to)
-Bubbling
-Fusion
-Gem Weapon(Does not know how to)
-Healing Touch
-Limb Enhancers (Not really a power, but may still technically be considered a power)
-Meteor Summoning(Hasn't discovered)
Future power suggestions:
I actually don't really know what to give her next.

Plus, having an external component she needs to summon in order to control it could help balance it out, since it means occupying her hands... Though it could just as easily work with some other form of interface that she needs to learn.
If you wanted to be really mean, maybe her touch stumps on her limb enhancers aren't agile/small enough to effectively handle the buttons, meaning she also has to wean herself away from the comfort/security they provide... or is that too cruel?Kebi
-Standard freebie gem powers
-Dream Manipulation
-Flamethrower
-Dark Pulse
Future power suggestions:
There's this edge in Savage Worlds called Danger Sense. In the tabletop game, Kebi possesses this edge. It wrks like Spider Sense or Danger Intuition. Other than that, he has a wide variety of moves to choose from.
no subject
Flowey
-Standard freebie gem powers
-Magic Bullets
-Plant Manipulation
-Sense Enducement (Requires Permissions post)
Future power suggestions:
Given that Frisk isn't here at the moment, there's Floweys in other games which are given the limited ability to SAVE and LOAD. Not sure it'll be allowed here, though. Suggestions for how to nerf this are welcome, as are suggestions for any other powers.
Patchouli
Not sure what else to do with her yet. I mean, I could have her regain her old magic over time. I also considered paper manipulation, electricity/magnetism, and gravity manipulation while apping her
possibly also considering other fundamental interaction manipulations but I kind of have to wrap my head around that stuff in the first placeUh
tl;dr no idea what to do
no subject
I'm not sure why I thought of this, to be honest.

- Standard freebie gem powers
- Increased durability
- Empathy, which he currently can't control (Permission post here)
Future power suggestions
No idea! Possibly some sort of limited flight or electrical bullet generation but other than that, suggestions are more than welcome!
no subject
But seriously, how about being able to turn small objects into robots?
no subject
omg... he does have little mini versions of himself attack Frisk...
Kanji
INSTEAD, I wanna focus on his CRAU motif. In essence, I wanna focus on his princely status and his more feral side. He currently just has Enhanced Shapeshifting, which is pretty much anger-based transforming into a really big... well, beast. He's Beast from the faerie tales, after all. He hasn't transformed in that way (yet), but I wanted to delve further on his status.
So my current idea is that Kanji can summon smaller 'beasts' like foxes, rats, weasels, badgers and whatnot. Basically calling on his subjects in his chosen environment. This will be upgraded level to medium-sized beasts (wolves and wildcats, etc), and all the way up to further upgrading to large-size (bears, and now herbivores like deer; his technique is enhanced enough at this point that he doesn't outright scare them).
Other than that, that's all I got. Overall, I want it to get to a point where no matter how much he plays it down and insists he isn't, his time in Mythmakers somehow keeps telling him he's a goddamn prince and he's gonna like it.
Kaneki
Possible regains from home will probably just be more of his books because he's a nerd. But yeah, any new power suggestions would be super appreciated!
Velvet
-- She can create a cylindrical zone in which she can manipulate gravity, which is always centered around herself. Its reach only extends to the top of the cylinder, so she can't send people flying off or anything.
-- She can summon her gem weapon, a pair of Mystery Globes. Thus far, she's only able to shift them into one form: Ice Spheres, which she can shatter to create a temporary freezing effect, as well as manipulate the shards they form for a short period of time.
-- She can fly and hover, making it much easier for her to get around despite being only 54cm (1 ft, 9.24 inches) high.
I've been thinking that most of her offensive abilities will likely revolve around changing her Mystery Globes into various forms, each of which will be unlocked individually. Ideas I've got in mind for upgrades include Cannonballs, Exploding Cannonballs (which explode like water balloons rather than the obvious), Sticky Spheres, and Glitter Bombs. Maybe Gravity Balls, too... I'd appreciate any further suggestions for other forms.
I've also considered giving her a form of cold-based Healing magic; using it would make her hands feel like ice, and likely be accompanied by some kind of fog or mist.
Another power I've been batting around is Jewelry Creation. Since ametrine is part citrine, it's considered a money stone, and giving her the ability to craft and create jewelry could fit nicely with how citrine is said to influence creativity and the manifestation of one's will. However, I definitely don't want that to be overpowered, so I'm thinking that the baseline ability would give her the power to create Plastic Novelty Rings. I'd love suggestions for other 'tiers' she could gain for upgrades to that power!
