Weekly Challenge Four: Super Powers

Aug 08, 2010 04:11

This week's prompt is SUPER POWERS!

Wikipedia says "Superpowers (also super powers or simply powers) is another term for superhuman abilities, that is, any abilities that most humans on the planet Earth would not possess. The term is mainly used in superhero comic books but also in other media such as cartoons."

Find below a list of 25 powers and their definition. I realise that not everyone likes writing AU fiction but the theme is 'Super Powers', not 'Super Junior with super-powers'. Twists on themes are awesome that way. :D

→ The chosen powers can be used in the same fic, you don’t need to write 5 different fics. They can also be used in 5 different fics. As long as you use the powers you chose, everything’s okay. :)
