Okay, fun little game here, it works like this:

Click this link, it will take you to the Superpower Wiki, then click Random Page thrice, record each power page, galleries and such mean you can reroll, so to speak. After that come up with your unique Super-Powered being and post. ^^

Bonus points for creating a proper super team with a truly unique and fitting theme that would make other superpowers in the thread wish to join 'em.

Since I started this, lemme give y'all a quick demo:

==============================

Powers:
1) Youthful Empowerment
2) Size Manipulation
3) Enhanced Smell

Maximus Titanus! - THE TITAN OF MAN!
At Seven Feet and weighing in 300 Pounds, THE TITAN OF MAN! was once Maxwell Smith, also known as the Titan, in Sports Entertainment and was one of the most popular (and huge) wrestlers in the ring, until one fateful night when one of his so-called fellow performers planted evidence of doping in his locker. Disgraced and thrown out of the ring, Max had nothing going for him until he was able to find a job as a Security Guard in the local museum, unfortunately, on his first job there, he found himself fighting to protect his co-workers and the Roman Exhibition from a powerful empowered criminal, one who had styled himself after the Lord of Death, Hades, due to his ability to age those he touched and ghost-like abilities. Max tried his hardest, but he was soon left an aging wreck, too weak to fight on, or even live through his injuries...

...however, his aging quickly reversed itself as he grew larger, and larger, and larger until he dwarfed every exhibit in the museum. The following battle had an unfortunately eager Max try to thrash the Hades-clone, and try as he might, Max just could not reign in the massive torrent of energy within him, one security guard likened the surreal affair to a giant hyperactive five year old being given candy.

At the end of it all, the would-be thief had escaped, and Max was standing in the midst of over three billion worth of damages. To pay off the damages, Max had to get a new job, and he found one in an empowered group set up by the civil service to assistant in rescue services, and since it was decided that the team members all needed call signs, Max became MAXIMUS TITANUS! THE TITAN OF MAN!

While no doubt useful, the fact that MAXIMUS! does not have an indoor voice has caused a number of headaches amongst the team.

-Gun Limbs
-Energy Blasts
-Desire Inducement

Triggerfinger

Olliver Mason was just your run of the mill naturally empowered human. Since his energy blasts power was pretty generic and of even narrower use, he decided the world would benefit more from him leading a normal life. The Nano-Tech alien who's life he saved changed a few of those plans. It's not as interesting as it sounds. Alien crashes on Earth. Mad scientist captures him and studies his physiology to enhance his tech. Alien escapes. Alien hides in superpowered kid's backyard. Dumbass kid can't suppress his heroic instincts and intervenes. After a series of escalating battles Boy and Alien defeat the Mad Scientist, but Boy is forced to use more energy than his arms can handle and they both explode. Alien best friend uses Nanobots to restore arms and Boy gets brand new arms that he can shift into guns.

This resulted in Olliver getting a lot more control over his original powers and can pump out even bigger and a larger variety of blasts now. Which is a good thing since the Mad Scientist he and his friend just killed belonged to an insanely dangerous group that is way more than he can handle on his own. Luckily his battles also attracted the right kind of attention and got him and his friend recruited into the local team that's been dealing with them. And that's the story of Triggerfinger.

Oh, right. The Desire thing. Well, there was this ghost and time travel and a wedding and well....hilarity ensued. For some reason all those shenanigans resulted in Aphrodite (yes, the actual goddess) owing him a favor and the Jackass stupidly mentioning 'better luck with girls' would be nice. Three months later (and some one night stands he's still ashamed for enjoying too much) he got it under control. He's been trying to get rid of it ever since. It's been three years.

Siberian Deity physiology
Unholy Territory
Enhanced Investigation

Chernobog

A timeless being that stalks the Siberian Steppe, no one knows his true name only calling him by the name Chernobog. He appears in many forms most often as a man in a black hooded cloak. Many, many folkloric traditions have arisen around him but only a few know the truth. That Chernobog stalks the steppes looking for those who have transgressed on their Oaths and claimed to serve holy powers. When he finds such people he stakes them and creates unholy land to make them realize their sin. As the Siberian Steppe becomes more and more empty Chernobog considers going a field...

Have to say it: I can’t believe I got this particular power-set. It’s just… so convenient!

Multiple Forms
Tentacle Extension
Alternate Universe Creation (!)

Mr. Pickman
Spoiler: show
How to describe it? How to describe such a grotesque mockery of natural law?

Sure, at first glance he looked as quite the unassuming fellow: A mild mannered spectacled businessman in a tidy suit. And yet there was something definitely… uncanny about him. Most people who meet Mr. Howard Dexter Pickman were unable to say what exactly. Something about the apparently inoffensive guy just felt wrong. His monotone voice, cheery smile and incredibly polite demeanor (never addressing anyone without a Mr., Sir, Miss, Madam, or any other honorific title, even the lowly tugs he occasionally contracted as henchmen) only made his presence more unnerving.

Who was him in reality? Where did he come from? There lied the mystery. The only thing certain was that he had become a respected figure among the super villain community, sometimes leading villain teams himself, but most of the time manipulating events from the shadows. Of course, the truth was actually more sinister than most would have imagined...

The few superheroes and do-gooders who have managed to confront him directly (and the few super villains who were ignorant or stupid enough to challenge him) quickly learned how dangerous he was. It was no ordinary day when some unassuming businessman had produced a giant freakish tentacle-like appendage from the back of his coat to impale you with it.

Suffice to say, Mr. Pickman was not unassuming fellow at all. He was actually part of... the Other, beings as ancient as creation itself, alien beyond comprehension, their sole existence an insult to natural reason and order, so powerful even some Gods were wary of them, and so horrifying even the most bizarre and abominable life forms on this side of the galaxy would succumb to madness at the tiniest glance of their true appearance. Of course, in order to prevent his multiple accomplices from degenerating into mindless babbling vegetables in his presence, Mr. Pickman had decided to adopt a form that was more confortable for their fragile and limited minds.

Very few were aware of Mr. Pickman’s true nature (some only barely): Visitors from other worlds, champions chosen by the gods themselves, deities and elementals incarnated on the physical realm, and a few individuals versed in magic and the dark arts.

What were his intentions? For some reason this horror incarnated from the cosmic abyss had set his sights on a tiny speck of dust and became interested in its inhabitants. Maybe he got bored with immortal life and decided to play with the hairless monkeys for a while. Maybe he had a more sinister purpose on mind. Nobody knew for sure and it might be better to remain ignorant.

And yet, despite being able to crush any adversary like a fly, Mr. Pickman possessed a very peculiar code of honor: Never using more than a tiny fraction of his total power to battle any opponent, apparently to grant them some sort of "starter advantage". Most of the time he battled in his human form, producing tentacles and appendages from all over his body that he used to attack and defend.

Only against particularly worthy enemies he would go to the next level, using his vast power to send them to an alternate dimension of his own creation (a process that usually involved opening his suitcase and showing the contents to the onlooker). These hellish realms tended to be twisted mirrors of whatever locale the fight took place in, full of dissonant sounds and with a grotesque landscape tailor made to reflect the worst fears and psychosis of the victim trapped in them. Other than that, the pocket dimension would not provide with any other advantage or disadvantage to the combatants, but it was in this place that Mr. Pickman would assume his “battle form”, vastly more dangerous than his basic human form, horribly offensive to the eyes and mind of the spectator, and yet only a very pale shadow of his true appearance. Said battle form still retained a humanoid shape after all (something along these lines).

In order to escape from the other dimension, those trapped would need to find a breach on the dimensional barrier or manage to deal enough physical damage to Mr. Pickman in order to break his concentration, as only his mind sustains the dark world. For obvious reasons, very few managed to escape, let alone with their sanity intact.

Curiously, even in the heat of battle, Mr. Pickman would always be serene and composed: Always referring in a polite manner to his enemies, never losing his calm even when his plans don’t come to fruition like he expects (humans were unpredictable like that, even to an eldritch horror like himself), and honestly complimenting those who manage to outsmart him in battle or strategy. Of course, any defeat he suffered, rare as it were, was always a tiny drawback in the grand scheme of things, mere delays before he completed his master plan, whatever it was.

Tried this twice. Hope you don't mind.

We need some Heroes, folks. Heroes.


Gun Limbs
Void Manipulation
Memory Restoration
Spoiler: show
Nullshooter
Female
58 Years Old

A woman in her late 50s, real name Ramona Poppy. About 20 years ago, she came into contact with some kind of extra-dimensional anomaly in the frozen regions above Canada. The anomaly drew her in, and she was not heard from ever again...

Well, until now. She has returned from the Void, having gained mastery of it through several adventures through several worlds. She had lost her left arm up to just below the shoulder, but it had been replaced with some kind of machine arm with several tubes coming out near the wrist, from which she can fire some kind of high-velocity antimatter bullets pulled from the Void. She can also manipulate the Void in peoples' minds, restoring memories forgotten either through time or trauma, or covering them up again.

She currently being detained in a high-security government complex in the USA, the country she reappeared in, though it has already been demonstrated that she can simply leave through the Void she controls at any time, so to keep her here, they treat her kindly and with respect. Thus, it could be said that she has simply chosen to retire in this complex. She is the jovial sort, pleased to spend her days telling stories of her many adventures with those "detaining" her. There are currently over 2 GB's worth of her stories recorded, all of which are currently kept top secret.

There are currently negotiations between the US and Canada to have her returned to her home in the frozen north.


Will Empowerment
Inorganic Duplication
Soundwave Perception
Spoiler: show
Sound Burst

A young man, 24 years old, Real Name Tommy Brans. He was 4, and with his family, touring the cold regions north of Canada, when he witnessed the abyss open up, sucking his family (and several other people) into it. He was picked up by authorities, along with other survivors, and later adopted by a loving family connected to a top-secret organization (He was just part of a Class-A incident, do you really think they'd simply let him run wild?). He grew up watching shows about heroes who overcame terrible odds with only their willpower, and decided he wanted to be like them.

On his 14th birthday, he woke up to find that his room was filled with bubbles. As each popped, instead of a popping sound, there was an actual sound, such as a nearby car honking, or a dog barking, or a footstep. He found that he could cause these bubbles to multiply, amplifying the sounds produced, even to a painful point, or move them at will, displacing the actual sound when the bubbles popped.

His parents (partially as ordered by their superiors, partially out of genuine concern and awe) took him to a lab, where every aspect of his powers could be studied, and encouraged him.

Since then, he's been shown to be able to cause sound explosions, though it's easier when there are extremely loud sounds to begin with. He uses these to knock people off their feet with displaced or even amplified Sonic Booms from passing places, countering explosions with their own sounds, etc. He can also duplicate normal objects, though this has proven more difficult than sounds.

But his real power, as his parents insist, is that he never, EVER gives up, and won't stop at anything when he thinks a wrong has been done to right it.

He just thinks he watched too much Naruto and Gurren Lagaan.

Wow, that was actually pretty fun. Maybe I'll try this again later.

I got some good ones.

Spoiler: show
Agency File HB-0001
Eta Draconis, Typhon

Civilian Name :Hale, Braxton
Appearance:
Subject is male, approximate age 25, in excellent health and condition. Brown hair, hazel eyes, approximately 6' 0", 190 Lbs. Upon closer examination pupils appear slitted and reptilian.
Known Abilites:
Shapeshifting- Able to assume the form of a skeletal, draconic creature of unknown origin. In this form, subject is immune to gas and biological attacks, and capable of travel in the void of space.

Meteor Generation- Subject observed on multiple occasions generating or summoning meteor and comet like bodies for various uses, including but not limited to projectile weaponry.

Vacuum Manipulation- Subject observed generating and manipulating vacuums for various purposes.

Outlook and Alignment:
Subject has proven courteous and friendly on multiple occasions. Friendly working relationship established with Agent S. Prell. Multiple requests for testing and for the subject to be placed in protective custody denied by subject. As subject has proven non-hostile to our interests, as well being incredibly difficult to contain, direct action has been deemed unnecessary.

Overview:

Subject first came to the Agency's attention after being admitted to [REDACTED] hospital for treatment of severe injuries sustained at a cabin in the Rocky Mountains owned by the subject's parents. Interest was taken due to the subject being considered for recruitment due to flags triggered during a psychological evaluation given in preparation for [REDACTED] service. Agent S. Prell first on location. Large segments of the cabin were destroyed, and evidence of heavy activity present. Excavation and analysis of the crater centered on the back porch of the cabin found traces of several unknown elements, as well as traces of a large, quadrupedal creature of unknown origin. Soil samples were taken, and tracks on the crater rim and surrounding area, documented and destroyed as per Agency Guidelines.

Subjects first open use of powers occurred during Incident Pick-0113. Large numbers of civilian casualties prevented. First contact made by Agent Prell. Log of interactions follows.

BH-0034. Approached by Agent G. Mendez, request for testing made. Denied by subject.
BH-0035. Contacted by Agent Prell. Request for assistance made. Granted by subject. Object deposited in Sol's Gravity Well. Confirmed destroyed. See File BH-0035a
BH-0036. Contact by Director Abrams. Request for [REDACTED] Denied by subject. See file BH-0036a
BH-0037. Contact by Agent Prell. Request Granted, subject paired with Agent Prell for duration of incident. See file BH-0037a

Round 2 for me.

Will Empowerment (AGAIN?)
Astral Projection (Okay, at least I got a power I can connect it to...)
Powers Via Object (Er... Okay. Workable.)
Spoiler: show
Ruby Spectre, or "Specs"
Male
11 Years old.
Home Country: France

A young boy who obtained a pair of ruby spectacles that fell out of a rift 2 years ago. When he put them on, he found himself outside of his body, floating about. After some playing around with this, he found that in this state, he could fly at amazing speeds (up to and including going halfway around the planet in a few minutes), phase through walls, manifest himself as a ghost of some sort, and even enter, read, and control people's minds for as long as his will overpowered theirs. He eventually learned to control this power, being able to remain in his own body even when wearing the specs. Since then, he's been spending his days traveling the world in a spirit form, delivering messages to various heroes, spying on enemies, and generally working to keep the Superhero community together.

If his specs are removed from being worn, he is instantly returned to his body. If something happens to his body while he is gone, he feels it, and if something happens to his spirit form, his body will react, blushing, paling, twitching, or even screaming if things get bad.

He once attempted to possess Mr. Pickman. It is a testament to his willpower (and his planning; he had a trusted friend stay next to him while he was gone) that he managed to escape and remain relatively sane (after some time with a therapist), and the information he was able to glean from Mr. Pickman's mind saved many lives.
Heat Transferal (Another interesting start.)
Unlovability (What. No. What?)
Transcendent Physiology (God powers! Yes!)
Spoiler: show
Stella Blues
Female
Age: Unknown, possibly in the thousands, or millions. Physical Age is 18.
Real Name: Unpronounceable by the human tongue.*

All her life, Stella Blues was the girl everyone would refer to has being the sort of person "only a mother could love," even by people who hadn't even spoken to her.

Unfortunately, even this is untrue. No one cares about her, and those who try... well, something happens to ruin the relationship.

With her parents no longer willing to put up with her, she was cast out of her her home at the age of 10, and ended up in the child services for the next 8 years.

Over that time, she found she had a gift. The same strange things that kept people from befriending her also kept bringing evil foes to her doorstep, and subsequently these enemies were inevitably killed, often by suddenly freezing to death (from having all of the heat in their bodies sucked out), or driven away. It also ensured that she was always provided for in all things but the one she wanted most: friends, family, and lovers.

It was on her 18th year of life that she received a divine message came to her, telling her that she was the reincarnation of an impudent upstart goddess who was cursed for her pride and fickleness to live one lifetime as a human being, sans the one thing she prided herself above all else: her ability to befriend most anybody without effort.

Her reaction was understandably distraught, but the message also gave her a glimmer of hope: for every evil she does away with, 1 day will be removed from her mortal lifespan, and she will be closer to rejoining her fellows in the higher planes of existence.

*(Though we do have a name for her: Mary Sue.)

Vertigo

Psionic Detection
Energy Absorption
Sense Manipulation
Spoiler: show
Eddie Valance was a man with a mission. His entire life, and the lives of everyone he'd known had been one long, sick game played by a sociopathic psionic purely for the twisted entity's amusement. Up until he decided to play specifically with Eddie, slipping the idea to try and climb a live transformer during a thunderstorm on a supposed dare. When the inevitable happened, instead of simply killing his latest plaything, the energy coursing through Eddie unlocked and expanded his own awareness. Suddenly, he was completely aware of the subtle strings that criss-crossed his entire town. And as he felt those strings tugging at his subconcious, he reached out with his mind, and twisted. The physical pain he'd endured during his Awakening was mirrored directly into the mind of the puppet master. Suddenly, a local homeless man, the malevolent entity whose reach had encompassed the entire town began to convulse, having always kept himself removed from the pain of his toys he was completely unprepared to handle the feedback.

Now, Eddie has made it his mission as Vertigo, with some government support, to ensure that no other psionic has the chance to terrorize others as his home was. With his ability to sense psionic ability use at range, he can find the more shadowy offenders, while his ability to absorb energy allows him to counter the greater majority of energy manipulators. And his ability to twist senses, including the extra senses of psionics, allows him to keep them off balance long enough to close and kosh them over the head.

What the heck, I'll do another.

Spoiler: show
Agency File GR-0001
The Hermit

Civilian Name :Unknown
Appearance:
Subject is male, of Native American decent, approximately 50-60 years of age in appearance, 5' 5". Hair is shoulder length, completely white.
Known Abilites:
Omnilock- Subject appears to, for all intents and purposes, be immortal. First Contact made in 1901 by Agent C. Clark. Subject has shown no signs of aging since. Also appears to be immune to reality shifting events or powers. Various theories abound, but are unable to be tested.

Telekinesis- Class S Telekinetic, approach with extreme caution. On the rare occasions the subject has been observed to interact with the world, he has demonstrated a staggering level of telekinetic ability, including but not limited to Molecular manipulation, flight, stasis fields, force blasts, and combustion.

Mystical Martial Arts- Regardless of the Scientists tendency to scoff at the classification, the subject is the most definitive proof we have that there is more to the so called Mystic Arts then we previously were aware. Upon being provoked, the subject has displayed mastry of multiple distinct styles of martial arts, each having a different effect, from manipulation of water and fire, to draining energy from the target until they are unable to stand. For full examination of powers observed during incident Herm-0005, see file GR-0002.

Outlook and Alignment:
The subject has proven to be irritable and prone to fits of anger when disturbed by Agents and other empowered individuals. Subject has expressed on several occasions the desire to be left alone, as well as referring to humans and other empowered beings as beneath his notice. Reasons for this view not given. Subject has expressed interest in few if any subjects. Due to his incredible power level, he has been deemed a Type S entity. Agents are instructed not to approach or provoke the subject under any circumstances.
Overview:
Subject first discovered on an isolated mountaintop in the Bighorn Mountains of Wyoming, by Agent C. Clark in November of 1901. Upon approaching the aged man sitting in the seiza position in a snow bank on the mountain peak, Agent Clark was lifted from his feet and hurled in the direction of the nearest settlement by an unseen force. Agent Clark was subsequently removed from field duty, and long range observation and civilian misdirection campaigns were implemented. The Cloud Peak Observation post has been continuously manned since April of 1902, but few log entries have been made. Current log follows.

June 5th, 1905. Subject opens eyes and stares directly at observer for 15.05 minutes, before closing eyes again. At the end of this time period, observer on site claims to have been told to instruct his superiors to do nothing more than observe, lest he crush us like the insignificant barbarian insects we are.

August 1st, 1927. Subject shifts position, now facing west away from observers.

December 7th, 1941. Subject opens eyes, stares southwest for 1 hour before closing eyes.

August 6th, 1945. Subject opens eyes, stares west for 2 hours before closing eyes. Observer believes a brief expression of rage was made before the subject's face shifted back to his normal emotionless mask.

July 20th, 1969. Subject focuses on the Moon for 12 minutes, starting at 20:17:40 UTC.

January 7th, 1990. Incident HERM-0005. See file GR-0002

Between incidents, the subject shows no signs of activity or awareness of the world around him.

Okay, don't leave us hanging here, what was the incident?! Also, anyone else suddenly thinking of writing these up like the SCP files?

Patient 0982
Spoiler: show
Classified Records of the Gateways Hospital and Mental Health Center Incident:

February 12th, 1975 - Patient 0982, name unknown, arrives in the Center. The files indicate that he was the last survivor of a mass suicide of a particularly infamous cult in the area.
February 15th, 1975 - First session with 0982, he has a soft voice, almost feminine, has problems with pronouns, referring to himself as we. Indoctrination techniques of the cult must have been very thorough, but we'll get this sorted.
...
July 21st, 1975 - Today was 0982's first day out mingling with the other patients, instead all of the patients in the lounge all at once had severe episodes of their afflictions, 0982 simply stood there and watched. He has been isolated and a call has been sent out for a psionic, perhaps they might give us a clue to what we're missing.
July 23rd, 1975 - The session with the psionic was...a disaster, without prompt or visible warning, the psionic, Dr. Michel Tamarin screamed and ran about the room, clawing her eyes out, soiling herself, and repeatedly smashing her head against door. She was stopped in time and rushed to the hospital. 0982 wished to have sessions with me and me alone from now onwards. Who is he?
...
September 10th, 1975 - ...what is he?
...
February 12th, 1980 - Five years...and it's all over..last one today...and it's all over...eyes shine and tongue burns...it is all over...
...
February 12th, 1982 - It has been two years since I took over, and we are still searching the records the previous staff left behind of this mysterious Patient 0982, the cleaners have been complaining a lot about the dust in the Asylum.
April 27th, 1982 - It wasn't dust...it was ash. We've called in the Police, we need to figure out just what happened two years ago.
...

Agency File UE837-2
Lifeline

Civilian name: unknown
Appearance: Subject is a cadaverous mummified entity, potentially Caucasian originally, with a long white beard and two glowing orbs of energy in his sockets. Tips of fingers have worn away, exposing bone, which seems to be perpetually wet with what appears to be blood. Wears extremely tattered robes of purple and black that still allow for total freedom of movement.

Lich Phisiology Subject appears to be completely deceased and mummified for all intents and purposes. Willingly submitted to a medical examination; doctor afterwards wished to know if he was being pranked. Ensuing rant on how the subject should not exist seemed to provoke amusement rather than anger. When questioned further about how this had occurred, subject informed personnel that it was not something that they would wish to replicate and refused to speak on it further, instead beginning to tell off-color jokes.

Haemopotent Replication During testing, Agency facility came under attack by Subject LE3872-1. Subject engaged enemy in hand-to-hand combat, displaying little aptitude for such until a strike managed to draw blood from the attacker. Immediately subject began to display enhanced hand-to-hand capabilities that mirrored those of the attacker. Subject subsequently subdued attacker and then moved back to allow Agents to apprehend him. Further testing with willing subjects has provided ample evidence that so long as the subject can draw blood from an empowered individual, he can replicate their abilities. Replicated abilities last anywhere from 15 minutes to up to an hour under controlled circumstances. Subject has confirmed that relative power levels of the individual supplying the blood has a major effect on the time period.

Necrotic Empowerment Upon further questioning, subject revealed that he had one other power, but was rather loathe to demonstrate upon a living sentient. When provided with a subject that he considered proper, in this case a rat, he demonstrated a punch on an impact plate. After the strength of the punch was registered, subject reached into the cage and snapped the rat's neck. Immediately after the rat's termination, subject punched the impact plate once more. Registered strength was 2% stronger than previous impact. Has confirmed that the more deaths occur around him, the more powerful he will become. Was recorded as referring to this power as a "crutch" and "last resort".

Outlook and Alignment:
Subject has actually proven to be both tractable and friendly, once his appearance has been adjusted to. Refers to other empowered entities as "players". Seems to regard life as a giant joke which only he knows the punchline to. Enjoys interaction with humans and other entities, as well as combat against entities that have expressed desire to destroy subject for a variety of reason. Has killed an opponent once (see file E587-2), otherwise has expressed desire to leave opponents alive in order to fight them again at a later date. Seems disinclined to adapt modern technology, though is fascinated by social networks of all kinds. Has demonstrated Grand Master-level competency at chess.

Overview:
Subject was found in the wreckage of the aftermath of an encounter with the entity known as Mr. Pickman and another meta (deceased) in a graveyard. Expressed mild curiosity and complied with all instructions from responding Agents. Has since integrated himself into the Agency as a valuable combat resource as well as a training partner for newly empowered entities that have agreed to join the Agency. refers to himself as "Lifeline"; when asked why, simply replied that telling the questioner would ruin the joke.
"Doesn't matter what the press says. Doesn't matter what the politicians or the mobs say. Doesn't matter if the whole country decides that something wrong is something right. This nation was founded on one principle above all else: the requirement that we stand up for what we believe, no matter the odds or the consequences. When the mob and the press and the whole world tell you to move, your job is to plant yourself like a tree beside the river of truth, and tell the whole world — "No, you move."

Agency File SK-1552
Twilight and Rewind

Subject SK-1152a
Twilight
Civilian Name: Sophie Kizmat
Appearance:
Female, 22 years of age. Short cropped purple/black hair, silver eyes. Hair and eye color are natural, though the cause of this is unknown at this time. 5' 6" tall, 125lbs

Known Abilities
Twilight Manipulation- Subject possesses the ability to manipulate a combination of Light and Dark energy that she has dubbed "Twilight" in a variety of manners including force fields, energy blasts, and flight.

Synchronization- Subject possesses the ability to "synchronize" with other empowered individuals and beings, increasing both her own and her partner's potential for the duration of the "Pact". The extent of this increase is dependant on multiple factors, and can result in anything from a marginal increase in ability, temporary power transferal, or an uncontrollable flood of energy.

Subjective Reality- Subject has limited reality warping ability. She is able to project and create any object or creature she can imagine, or even prevent injury, though this effect is limited to her immediate vicinity. This ability seems to be extremely tiring to the subject, rendering her catatonic if used more than once a week.

Outlook and Alignment:
Twilight and her twin brother (see file SK-1552b) have proven to be a valuable asset to the agency, working alongside agents on multiple occasions. Twilight is a generally confident and happy young woman, and gets along with most agency personnel, and has a large social circle both inside and outside of the agency. Due to their background, she and her brother have lived on Agency bases for most of their lives, and are generally viewed as younger siblings by agents.

Subject SK-1552b
Rewind
Civilian Name: Stephen Kizmat
Appearance: Male, 22 years of age. Short, blue/black hair, silver eyes. Hair and eye color are natural, though the cause of this is unknown at this time. 6' 0" 180 Lbs.

Known Abilities
Temporal Rewind-Subject has the ability to permanently rewind time on a limited basis, generally isolated to himself, and those he can touch. The duration of the rewind is dependent on a number of factors, primarily the subject's state of mind. Sustained positive emotion in himself and those around him can increase the rewind exponentially. Maximum rewind possible under controlled conditions has been documented at 1239 seconds.

Sound Conversion-Subject has the ability to convert sound into kenetic energy. The amount appears to be directly related to the decibel level of the sound converted. This energy can then be applied either to himself, other people, or to objects, allowing for a wide range of potential uses.

Emotion Empowerment-Subject's powers are capable of being enhanced by being exposed to the emotions of himself and other humans and empowered beings. Positive emotions increase his powers, either by increasing the duration, or by otherwise strengthening the effect. Negative emotions have the opposite effect, degrading his control or otherwise weakening his powers.

Outlook and Alignment:
Rewind and his twin sister (see File 1552a) have proven to be a valuable asset to the agency, working alongside agents on multiple occasions. Rewind is generally quieter than his sister, in contrast to his abilities. As introverted as his sister is extroverted, Stephen prefers to spend his free time quietly, listening to music on his ever present Ipod, reading or studying. He does however have a small circle of friends both inside and outside the agency. Due to their background, He and his sister have lived on Agency bases for most of their lives, and are generally viewed as younger siblings by agents.

Overview:
Subjects 1552a and 1552b are the children of Agent Georgia and Dr. Richard Kizmat. Georgia is a decorated field agent, while Richard is a Scientist in the Research Division. The source of their abilities are unknown, though interviews with both parents regarding their conception seems to indicate that a late night tryst in Research Lab B during an activation of the Siberia Object (File SB-9035) housed in Research Lab A was involved in their development of powers. Disciplinary measures more than a written warning regarding proper use of Agency Time were waved due to the interesting outcome of said incident. Further investigation underway.

Both subjects first showed signs of empowerment at the onset of puberty. Proper safety measures were promptly taken to insure control and understanding of their abilities. Permission was requested and granted by both the subjects and their parents for an in depth, noninvasive study of their powers. Significant discoveries regarding the nature of empowered beings have been made, though these are classified. Upon receiving their High School Diplomas, both subject 1552a and 1552b chose to pursue careers within the agency, much to Director Abrams' delight. Both currently work as field agents in a limited capacity while they pursue degrees in suitable fields.

Alright. We've got some heroes, we've got the Big Bad and another eldritch abomination. I'm gonna go for a minor villain this time.

Bubble Mimicry
Disguise Mastery
Enhanced Breath
Spoiler: show
Pops
Male, Age 28
Real Name: Joe "Pops" Andrews

He was once an up-and-coming Hollywood actor, until a terrible scandal ruined him, and ended with him being thrown in prison (for a crime he never committed, ironically enough, a fact that has only recently been discovered). Even after being released, he was unable to find work, and eventually took to a life of crime, using his acting chops and various disguises to sneak in and out of various high-security places. During a battle with Sound Burst, a sound explosion threw him into a radioactive chemical plant. He survived, and came out with the ability to manipulate bubbles of all kinds, and the ability to use his breath as a weapon.

His powers can somehow manipulate even the bubbles Sound Burst sees and manipulates; his breath has been seen to move any that Sound Burst has already displaced. He often carries around bubble gum he has stolen (after his second offense, he has been forbidden from handling anything that can create bubbles: anything from bubble wands and formula, bubble gum, or even the bubbles soda makes when fizzling) to use as a weapon: a few chews, a single breath, and boom, he has a sticky explosive of any size he likes.

The explosion the bubble makes when popped has earned him the nickname "Pops," which is also the name of the movie role he had during the scandal. Calling him this has been known to anger him.

He is still a master of disguise, and prefers stealth to outright combat.

And since everyone else is doing it...

Interface Creation
Soul Absorption
Sacrificial Creation

Geez, that's a far more dangerous combination that I was expecting...
Spoiler: show
Agency File VI-3805
Subject NV-0029-2
Download-Upload

Civilian Name: Mr. Downs (First name unknown)
Appearance: Subject's appearance can be different over time. He can appear anywhere between 10 years old to 80 years old, but is always male, with freckles, blue eyes, and blond/greying hair, unless he dyes his hair. Has a distinct liver spot above his eyebrow in his older incarnations.

Known Abilities
He can manifest some kind of tablet-sized hologram at will, which has been termed NV-0029-2-A. There seem to be [REDACTED] applications on it, and it seems to have power equal to a supercomputer worth [REDACTED] trillion US dollars. Is hackable, and seems to be able to suffer from a virus, but if the interface is dismissed and re-manifested, then the resulting interface seems to be reset to a state from before the intrusion took place, and the security is completely reconfigured. The interface's language is nothing like any on our planet, though subject NV-0029-201, codenamed "Nullshooter," has recognized it as [REDACTED].

One of the applications NV-0029-2-A has connects the computer to something else, and downloads a file written in different languages as FirstnameLASTNAME.[REDACTED]. a rate of [REDACTED] GB per second. The sizes of the files range from [REDACTED] MB to [REDACTED] TB. The person named in the file dies almost immediately of no visible cause after the download is complete. Psionics confirm that the victims of these attacks seem to have [REDACTED]. We can only assume that the files NV-0029-2 has downloaded is [REDACTED].

However, it seems NV-0029-2 uses this data for something, as in later attempts we find that some files disappear. The only one that has yet to change in the last 5 years is written in [REDACTED], and translates to [REDACTED]. The metaphorical being bearing this name has been termed NV-0029-2-B. However, the more of these files NV-0029-2 has, and the larger their collective file size, the younger NV-0029-2 appears to be.

Wherever he goes, strange creatures appear. These screaming monstrosities, collectively deemed NV-0029-2-C, shout in an alien language, though again, subject NV-0029-201 has recognized their language as [REDACTED]. The normally unflappable subject then begged agents to "mercy kill" the samples of NV-0029-2-C, as "they have suffered too much already." With some reluctance, the Agency complied, and the samples are currently undergoing autopsy.

Outlook and Alignment: NV-0029-2 always has a knowing smile, and has been known to unnervingly laugh at those around him. He has been seen in the presence of Mr. Pickman, the two chatting amicably, as though they were old friends (this is the situation in which we were able to learn of NV-0029-2's last name.

NV-0029-2 is suspected to be an ally, or at least a subordinate of Mr. Pickman. All agents who cross his path are expected to do so with caution.

Overview: Yet another subject connected to the NV-0029 Incident, in which a intersection between multiple dimensions [REDACTED] miles wide manifested in the Arctic regions north of Canada, exact coordinates [REDACTED]. NV-0029-2 is the second subject discovered post incident, having appeared [REDACTED] months after the NV-0029 Incident. He has lurked throughout North America for the last 20 years, causing various unexpected deaths and reports of terrible monsters haunting the night.

The creatures NV-0029-2 creates tend to have qualities based upon the personalities of the victims of NV-0029-2's "downloads." The Agency has captured 3 specimens of NV-0029-2-C, and "mercy-killed" all three at the behest of NV-0029-201.

So, should we start setting up the characters we've already made into Agency Files, and set up Incidents as sources of power?

NV-0029 (Northern Void), as I'm calling it, took place about 20 years ago. A void opened up for unknown reasons above the Arctic Regions north of Canada, in the vicinity of the Queen Elizabeth Islands. Some people were sucked in, some were spat out, others were given power by exposure to unknown elements radiating from the rift. There are many who went missing for a long time after that incident, and the condition of those who manage to return varies: some come back the same age as when they left, but having spent up to 20 years in stasis. Others came back having aged more than the length of their absence would suggest they should. Then you get people like the Nullshooter, who just come back having aged as much as you'd expect. However, most who were sucked in came back with amazing powers.

Obviously, there's more than 1 Northern Void incident. Perhaps one in Siberia popped out whatever the Siberia Object is?

Sure. I was going at it like there are various different kinds of weirdness going on. You have the Northern Void incident. Whatever it was exactly that gave Eta Draconis his abilites (which was something more of the mystical variety. The embodiment of the constellation Draco choosing a champion is what I basically had in mind). Then you have guys like Chernabog, The Hermit, and Paitent 0982 running around. The Siberia Object...yeah I like that. an unknown piece of tech that popped out of a void in the area and was recovered by the agency.

Okay, real quick, I'm gonna try and make a timeline for what we've got.

First of all, I'm going to count all "X years ago" events as being X years before... let's just say November 12th, 2012, since that's when this thread started up. Characters without noted dates will be treated as their backstories happening in 2012 (Unless a better time period can be found), with a question mark at the end of their data. Now, let's look at confirmed-time-period events in order:

Spoiler: show
  • Pre-1990s
  • In ancient times, The Chernobog begins his sacred duty.
  • Agent C. Clark encounters The Hermit in November of 1901.
  • Cloud Peak Observation Post is set up and prepped to observe The Hermit in April of 1902.
  • On June 5th, 1905, The Hermit warns his observers not to interfere with him.
  • The Hermit shifts to face west on August 1st, 1927 (possibly to take note of the Nanchang Uprising in China?).
  • The Hermit looks southwest for one hour on December 7th, 1941 (possibly towards Pearl Harbor?).
  • The Hermit looks west in rage on August 6th, 1945 (Day the first Atomic Bomb is dropped on Hiroshima.).
  • The Hermit looks up to the Moon for 12 minutes on July 20th, 1969, the day of the Moon Landing.
  • Patient 0982, name unknown, arrives in the Center on February 12th, 1975.
  • 0982's first day out mingling with the other patients is on July 21st, 1975.
  • 0982 has some fun on February 12th, 1980.
  • 0982 has more fun on January 28th, 1984.
  • The Agency finds 0982 on May 10th, 1989, and regrets it one day later.

    1990s
  • Incident HERM-0005 occurs on January 7th, 1990, and The Hermit apparently did some seriously awesome fighting. This was also the day Patient 0982 wrote the final message in the logs of the Gateways Hospital and Mental Health Center, presumably escaping. Maybe the two fought each other, or something?
  • Twilight and Rewind are conceived, or at least born, in 1990.
  • NV-0029 Incident occurs on December 12, 1992.
  • Mr. Downs is discovered crossing the border between Canada and the US on February 13th, 1993. He looks like a 70 year old at this time. He is detained by border patrol. He successfully crosses the border 2 days later, with the appearance of a 12 year old.
  • Mary Sue was banished from her place among the Gods and set on a path of redemption as a newborn Stella Blues on February 4, 1994.

    2000s
  • Soundburst awakened his powers on July 20, 2002.
  • Triggerfinger got control of his Desire Inducement powers in 2009. (Perhaps Valentines Day?)
  • Ruby Spectre received his ruby specs, which fell out of a small rift, on May 9, 2010.
  • Mr. Pickman decides he wants to manifest in this world on December 12, 2011. (?)

    2012
  • Eta Draconis is discovered by the Agency in the January of 2012.(?)
  • Joe Andrews becomes Pops on March 6, 2012.
  • Eddie Valence became Vertigo in the April of 2012. (?)
  • Incident Pick-0113 occurs in the May of 2012. (?)
  • Lifeline discovered in the aftermath of a battle with Mr. Pickman in the June of 2012. (?)
  • Nullshooter returned to this plane of existence, and was taken in by the Agency, on September 19, 2012.
  • Maxwell becomes Maximus Titanus! - THE TITAN OF MAN! on November 12th, 2012. (?)
Other connections:

1: The Rocky Mountains. Both Eta Draconis and the Hermit were found here.
2: Siberia. The Siberian Object and the Chernobog could potentially have a connection.


EDIT: Oops, forgot Lifeline. Putting him in. Any other suggestions for placement in timeline are appreciated.

Desert Adaptation
Healing Blood
Omnipotence

He goes by many names. The one most commonly associated with him is Col Melgi. Angel of the Desert.
He was a man once, a good man, many regarded him as a living saint. He often walked out into the desert to save those lost and trapped by the fearsome desert storms. In times of great need he would even spill his own blood to save these weary travelers.
At some point either empowered by his legends or coming into his own birth right or some other mystical ability, Col gained what was essentially unlimited power, the ability to do anything. With his Ascension into what is essentially godhood. Col left his beloved deserts and went out into the world. There he began to work to make things in the world better. Ending the first expansion of the Black Plague. It was then that he met the Huntress, reportedly after that Col Melgi disappears from recorded history although a small portion of him makes his home in the desert wastes, continuing to help those who are lost. When asked he says he has a purpose to protect the world from things beyond it.

The Agency made brief contact with him after the Poseidon Incident, confirming what information they have on the Huntress and speaking a little of himself.

Spoiler: show
Agency File YGH-1431
"Yugi"

Civilian Name: Timmy Van Husen
Appearance:
Male, 11 years of age. Short Brown hair, brown eyes, glasses. 4'4", 80 Lbs.

Known Abilities:

TCG Manipulation- Subject has the ability to manipulate and control any creature, power or ability published in a Trading Card Game system. As a result he constantly has multiple decks of cards from multiple systems on his person at all times, mostly Yu-Gi-Oh, Magic the Gathering and Pokemon. His tendency to keep a Pikachu summoned at all times has caused much jealousy in certain circles of our Agency.

Codification-Subject has the ability to create and manipulate complex systems for nearly anything. This is primarily used with the existing rule sets for his card games, though he has been willing to create and codify complex encryption systems for the agency in exchange for large quantities of booster packs. Technicians are asked to refrain from attempting to decipher how these systems work, as mental trauma has resulted on rare occasions.

Ionic Manipulation-Subject has the ability to manipulate Ions. This ability is limited to small amounts. At most, Yugi has been observed generating small plasma bolts for use in self defense when he is unable to use his cards.

Outlook and Alignment:
Yugi is your general preteen boy. Obsessed with his card games, video games, and various other diversions. Often expesses a dislike of school, most likely due to a lack of challenge, as he has shown himself to be a very smart boy. While he is more than willing to work with us, his parents have proven to be suspicious on the multiple occasions we have approached them for permission to hire their son for codification purposes, though this appears to be lessening as time progresses.

Overview:
Yugi drew the Agency's attention in October of 2012, when he was documented wandering around a small midwestern town in the United States with a Pikachu on his shoulder. His parents were approached shortly after, and though dubious, agreed to allow our agents to question him while they were present, mostly due to the actions of Agent S. Kizmat (Twilight). Upon questioning, Subject claimed to have gained his powers in January of 2012, by wishing on a falling star. (Coincidentally, this happens to be the same night the subject known as Eta Draconis(File HB-0001)was hospitalized due to an apparent meteor strike at his cabin in the Rocky Mountains shortly before first openly demonstrating his powers. Whether the incidents are connected is currently unknown). Steps to document and analyze the subject's powers were taken with parental approval, and the subject was warned as to the necessity of keeping a low profile. Yugi agreed to this in exchange for a monthly allowance consisting of 5 booster packs each of Pokemon, Yu-Gi-Oh and Magic Cards. Request approved by Director Abrams. Subject also appears to have developed a crush on Agent Kizmat (Twilight). Agent Kizmat assigned as the contact between the Agency and the subject and his parents.

That.


Lucky.


Brat.

Here, I've got some official cards from the Yu-Gi-Oh Movie: Pyramid of Light. Give him the Sphinxes and Pyramid of Light... Or an Arceus card (or really any Legendary Pokemon card).

Heck, get him into the Digimon TCG. Or the Naruto TCG. Or the DBZ TCG. Or the Final Fantasy TCG. OR the Kingdom Hearts TCG. Or...

Oh gosh. Pickman might have some trouble with this one when he gets a good deck together.

Question: can he do this with unofficial/counterfeit cards, like the many unofficial Egyptian God Cards out there? What about the effect cards, like Trap Hole or Black Hole of Yu-Gi-Oh?

It has to be an officially published card. But other than that, he can use ANYTHING. So yeah. He's a lucky little punk that makes all of the Agency's lab guys, IT guys, and several Agents horribly jealous. Unfortunately, his 9:00 bed time and status as a minor makes it difficult for him to do anything huge.

Tachibana Saeko
Spoiler: show
The child she once was was at Ground Zero when it happened, the first one to feel the shockwave and the immense heat, it was a sad thing that in the closing act of the War, the first to die would have been a lost five year old girl. Unfortunately, the girl's story did not end there, as the guardian diety of Hiroshima, in maddened grief and pain over the complete devastation of its city and population gave form to its anger, through her body. When Saeko woke up, she woke up in a world of devastation and as she stood up to walk to the outskirts of the city, she started crying...she could feel Hiroshima's god dying.

Months after she was found by the rescue crews, she toiled ceaselessly in the ruins of her former home, using her gifted powers to work in areas the recovery crews could not, the crews themselves had no choice in the matter, especially since the little girl could easily escape whatever containment they thought up for her. There was another reason why Saeko worked so hard, it gave her immense anger at the Americans a channel to work through, and so for the sake of those who perished to end a war, she worked as hard as she could so that she could sleep immediately at night.

It was only after three years had passed when her adoptive family noticed something odd about Saeko, she had not aged a bit, and more than that, her work on Hiroshima and then Nagasaki had attracted a lot of well wishers, which in turn coincided with her slow but steady power increase. It was unknown when exactly her nature as a Guardian Diety was confirmed, but it forced the entire world to look very carefully at their native religions and myths, and more importantly for the morale of Japan, it gave the Emperor's Divinity solid backing, and it was confirmed when she was allowed to visit him. The United States is yet to apologize to the Emperor, but in turn, Saeko's yet to accept offers to join the agency.

"Be glad I have deemed it worth my time to speak with the likes of you, now leave."

At her insistence, neither she nor the Emperor rule Japan, instead, the Emperor once more acts as the Connection between the physical world and his country's gods, a role and power enhanced by the strength of the immense amounts of Faith that Saeko's confirmation has given him. Meanwhile Saeko acts as her country's Guardian Diety, sending her angels to help out where they can and defending Japan from superpowered threats.

Lately, after a period of inactivity, Saeko's been extremely busy of late, assisting rescue efforts in the aftermath of the Sendai Earthquake and Tsunami, she also had the chance to work with foreign rescue crews, all of whom had garnered her thanks, and in one case, her laughter...who knew that MAXIMUS!'s lack of an indoor voice and hammy nature would have lifted the young Goddess from her depression?

Parent-site of The Keyhole, a little less organized in my opinion, but goes a little deeper into the mechanics of KH.

Yeah. Geez. If he keeps those powers and reaches the age of majority, he's gonna be unstoppable.

Oh gosh.

What if The Agency were to make an official TCG of their agents, subjects, and enemies, and publish it as "based on fiction?"

Mr. Pickman vs Mr. Pickman.

No matter who loses, we all win.

Memory Manifestation
Reforming
Amusment Park Monarchy
Spoiler: show
Agency File: NV-0029-29
Code Name: Memento
Real Name: Memento/Minerva "Minnie" Mendle
Appearance: A simple brown teddy bear, circa 1992. The doll's Age is unknown. Alternatively, a young girl of about 8 years old, wearing a violet frilly dress and brown pigtails, and bright blue eyes.

Overview: A teddy bear that fell out of a dimensional rift. The Agency has reason to believe that it is connected to the NV-0029 Incident, as fingerprints match those of Minnie Mendle, who disappeared into the Void and never returned, as well as other reasons.

Looking into Subject NV-0029-29's button eyes causes one to be transported to what appears to be an Amusement Park. The park will have aspects of parks the visitor(s) has been to before, in their childhood memories, if they have been to any, and it will be filled with things the visitor(s) enjoys, but it will overall be most similar to a park in [REDACTED], where it is believed Minnie Mendle often visited.

Within this place, the user can find the spirit of Minnie Mendle herself, enjoying the rides with no lines, eating treats, talking to manifested cartoon characters (both remembered by her and by the visitor(s)), and even napping on benches when tired. She will talk to visitors, and remembers conversations from previous visits and visitors; it seems that time stops for Minnie when no one from outside is in the Park.

Minnie is carrying an exact replica of the Memento. If you look in the bear's eyes, you are returned to the real world. When you enter the Park, your body enters a deathlike state, only to miraculously awaken, even restoring itself from damage taken in the real world while the spirit is in the Park. The Memento, though fragile, will also repair itself if damaged, as accidents have proven.

Attempts to ask how she ended up here have all ended in failure; she either doesn't remember, or doesn't want to remember. Potentially the latter, as Subject NV-0029-201 recognizes the bear, but is loath to talk about it, unusual for the chatty old woman. She often visits the Park, talking and playing with Minnie.

Subatomic Manipulation
Gun Limbs
Health Manipulation

Born in Scotland as Angus McCormall, Dr. Atomic considers himself a simple man despite holding a degree in particle physics, he never had much use for or desire for powers. That all changed when an Empowered incident wiped out the University of Inverness and the surrounding city as well. Angus was the only survivor. The blast caused him to change into something even he doesn't understand.

Staggering around after the explosion. Angus walked to where his family lived. There was nothing left. His wife..his two daughters...all dead because these 'heroes' couldn't be bothered to protect those they claimed to be fighting for. Something snapped in Angus that day. As his hand turned into a gun...he knew what he would do. He would hunt down every last living hero and villain and kill them. So that no one would ever again, have their life torn apart by these Empowered. If a few die in the crossfire..well it's for the greater good.

Heading south to Edinburgh Angus found his first hero. Imperator.
As he accelerated a piece of copper to just under lightspeed towards Imperator. Angus found that he really liked killing, not even minding the he had just cut a line of pure kinetic energy across the city. The 'hero' was dead.
Dr. Atomic was born.
