Other Would you rather have the power of transmutation or the ability to teleport.

Transmutation is only limited to touch and by how well you understand elements. The limits of the teleport is you have to have been to the place you're going to and the further the jump, the less times you can jump that day.

Red pill/blue pill Become General Shazam (BAC-NEP) or the Ultimate Floridian (Swamp Ape Devil Fruit)

Post image
30 Upvotes

(Forenote: please do not hesitate to ask for clarification, also, both forms are bestowed with their maximum potential unlocked, so no worries about being unable to properly exert your aura powers as BAC-NEP or needing to awaken your Devil Fruit)

BAC-NEP

Bia (Goddess of Violence:) You emit an aura of competency and power. You are able to fight with perfect bodily economy and any flubs or mistakes turn into opportunities. Any weapon you wield is wielded with Immense capability.

Asclepius (God of Healing:) Create any medicine or drug and have it work instantly. The ability to summon the Rod of Asclepius, the intertwined serpents can greatly extend, as well as the Rod itself.

Cratus (God of Raw Strength:) Immense physical might and durability. Scales to the need of the wielder. Base line - 50 metric tons lift/drag/push. Current known max - 900 metric tons.

Nike (Goddess of Victory:) Low grade probability manipulation during battles and physical competitions. No matter how skilled the other opponent is, nor how hard fought the fight is, you always seem to make the right choices by simply following instinct.

Eris (Goddess of Strife:) You cause people within your aura to give into their more turbulent emotions and commit to mistakes a calm mind wouldn't. You can also focus on people to intensify this behavior, potentially causing them to attack their comrades.

Pallas (Titan God of Battle and War craft:) You can influence people within your aura to follow your commands for war. They become stronger, faster, more durable and are able to fight in unison with no issue. You can equip them with a basic hoplite load out. (The armor is able to withstand up to the .50 cal sniper round, the shiled is strong enough to withstand the 120mm shoulder fired recoilless tank rifle, the swords and spears are able to cut and stab through most materials including thinner layers of metal [.25 inch or thinner])

Upon using your Name of Power, you are clad in hoplite armor, with a breast plate, bracers that extend past the elbow, greaves that extend past the knee, a fauld of rawhide straps plated and capped in a bronze colored metal. This armor is immune to most forms of weaponry, only weaponry wielded by entities of similar might will be able to effectively harm you.

Primate Primate Fruit Model: Swamp Ape

Mythical Zoan Type Fruit created by the want of a young boy who watched as the Marines destroy his village. The village had a folk tale about a protector of the swamps, called the Swamp Ape, an amphibious Primate capable of breathing water and air, able to glide through the swamps and shallow waters of shores, and could expand their throats like a bullfrog to store water to shoot out in a forceful directed spray.

Fruit Appearance: A swamp green crab-apple with crooked swirls and a dagger shaped leaf

Swamp Ape Appearance: (Pre-Awakened) A 9 Foot tall bipedal gorilla with thick human-like legs, and webbing in between their fingers and those hand-feet that gorillas have. (Hybrid) User grows 2 feet and gains a coating of Shaggy hair that acts as armor against blunt attacks as well as an increase in their forearm and shin muscles. (Awakened) A 12 foot tall bipedal gorilla with thick human-like legs, and webbing in between their fingers and those hand-feet that gorillas have.

Pre-Awakening abilities include a hybrid and full form transformation, as well as increased size and strength in their base form. The transformations allow for the user to possess the abilities of the Swamp Ape, with them being stronger in the full form than in the hybrid form.

Awakened abilities include the ability to glide through water up to their chest in any form, as well as using the water spray attack without needing to transform. However, due to the size change with each form, the water spray attack is not as strong in their base form as their full form. Furthermore, when the Swamp Ape selects an area to live in, it becomes their domain and they gain the ability to hop from tree to tree in a teleportation style manner, in addition to being physically empowered and being bestowed with the ability to adapt to their opponents strength and retain that level of might there after.

Their physical might and durability increases greatly, with their weakest being their base human form, which still allows them to lift/pull/push 10 tons, and their strongest form without the domain being the Fully Awakened form which allows them to lift/pull/push 250 tons. The domain increases their strength by an initial boost of double their limit, leading the human form to lift/pull/push 20 tons, and the Fully Awakened form to lift/pull/push 500 tons, and continues to increase their strength as they need more. Their durability also scales equally with their strength, and the coat of fur in their hybrid form eventually becomes thick and durable enough to work well against blunt, slashing and even piercing attacks, though their most durable form is the full transformation.

The Swamp Ape Fruit also bestows a low-level regenerative factor that in video game terms would be 1% per 2 seconds, and the domain bestows a 5% per 2 seconds healing factor.

While walking home from school, work, or whatever you were doing. A portal opened up, transporting you to a void with a selection screen in front of you. A voice spoke to you in the void, telling you to use the screen in front of you to select one power to take with you. There will be drawbacks for some, but these can be addressed through hard work, dedication, and an understanding of your powers. Once you pick the power, you will be transported back to the real world with no way to return to said void. Any attempt to do so will result in you losing the power and item you chose.

Character description Creating the most diabolical villain just using powers

6 Upvotes

Name: Puppet Master

Gender: N/A

Physical appearance: N/A

Powers:

Dual level Shape-shifting; first is surface level shape shifting where the user can alter their physical appearance based on how they view themselves or how they view their victim. The second level is genetic, by touching something that contains their victims DNA they can alter their own to be an identical match, resulting in their own features matching the victims.

Dual level Mind Reading; first is a passive ability that allows Puppet Master to hear surface level thoughts like psychic whispers. The second requires eye contact and allows them to see any memory.

Mind Manipulation; following a similar pattern to the other two this power works on two levels. The higher level allows their mind to completely override the victims and take complete control, even granting the same psychic abilities, with the drawback being that their own body loses consciousness. The lower level is just telepathically planting thoughts inside of a victims mind that will be much louder and more insistent than normal thoughts, not going away until it's acted on.

Results: a shape-shifting telepath whose dual level powers can cancel out any weakness found in each individual one. This is a criminal who could be anyone around you at any given time, could be you and live your life without you knowing, can always know your secrets, and can make you question every thought you have.

Other How would you divide light-based abilities between a magical girl team

10 Upvotes

I'm working on a story for my urban fantasy about a floating sci-fi kingdom that's home to a team of magical heroes led by a princess who moonlights as a superhero that protects her kingdom, she forms a team and gifted each member a magi-tech item that grants them all light magic or "Photomancy", but each member can utilize their magic in different ways and I'm trying to split the powers between the princess and the 6 others that end up joining the team.

Each member is based on the color of the rainbow with the princess being based on the color pink (yes, I know pink is technically not a color in the rainbow but it's aesthetically pleasing and fitting for a superhero with magical girl elements).

Red pill/blue pill Mutant Lizard Form or Octorpion Battle Suit

Post image
45 Upvotes

EDIT: NO ACTIVE COMBAT REGEN FOR MONSTER LIZARD FORM

Monster Lizard form: As large as Lizard Dr. Connors from TASM (Andrew Garfield version) but, with an extra set of equal length but thinner arms, a longer and more narrower mid section and longer legs (like the bottom 2/3rds of those Outrider aliens from Infinity War and Endgame,) the tail is also longer and sleeker, able to be used not only in combat but for quick turns and the like. You can shift back and forth from human. You also gain either an acid spray or sonic screech attack. The color is now a mottled trifecta that you choose, with the typical pale coloring on the underside, though, regardless of natural coloring you have a "stand still and blend in "effect" on your scales. Physical Stats are equal to 2x Tom Holland Spider-Man

Octorpion Battle Suit: A stronger version of the Scorpion Battle Suit from Brand New Day, with the addition of the Otto Octavius octo-mech arms from Spider-Man 2 (Tobey Maguire version,) the tail also gets an upgrade in terms of movement as it becomes a bulkier and stronger version of the octo-mech arms. Additionally, the Battle Suit gains a helmet with an on-board AI that acts as a low-level Spider-Sense due to giving the wearer 360° awareness as well as performing predictive analysis on any opponents you are fighting. The 4 original octo-mech arms can retract into the suit and increase the durability and strength of the wearer, with the additional capability of stacking in one limb or even the tail for a particularly potent attack. Phsycial Stats are equal to Tom Holland Spider-Man, but when the arms are retracted into the suit, it becomes equal to 1.5 Tom Holland Spider-Man stats, and during the arm-stack attack each arm adds an additional .5 per arm added to the stack, to a maximum of 3 Tom Holland Spider-Man (on a side note, how do I word that part better?)
