Powers and Skills and Abilities, Oh My!

For everybody's convenience in plotting, we try to keep a running list of the various abilities possessed by FH characters. If you ever find yourself saying, "Hey, I need a magic user/archer/person who can whistle Dixie while eating crackers and covering one eye," that list of powers is meant to be there for you to take a look at.

It's been a while since we did this so here we go:

  • All of the previous posts have been compiled into a spreadsheet that you can always head over to check (and will be linked on the FH community info page)


  • From now on, we only need people to fill this out for new characters, or if you have an update or correction for your older ones. If your stuff is listed over on the spreadsheet, don't worry about this!


  • We've streamlined the categories a bit to focus on "what can you do" instead of worrying about whether that's a magic or mutant or inherent ability. So the wacky powers are now just broken into spellcasting, psionic powers, and superhuman physical attributes.




Anything that is a canon power or ability of your character (including those developed at FH) and could be used in a plot in some way, please list below in the correct thread. This is for all character types - students/alumni, teachers and townies - and covers everything, not just the wacky powers. We also appreciate yer fighting, research, weapons, support skills and whittlin', baby.

Thank you so much in advance for taking the time to do this!

Algren is less comfortable with guns than he used to be, but that doesn't change the fact that he's still ridiculously skilled with pistols and rifles from his own era back in 1877. He very, very rarely misses his target. Even when drunk. Oh, canon.

... On top of that, he's a freaking samurai. He's most comfortable with a katana, and because canon makes him a huge freaking Gary Stu, he's skilled enough that he could hold his own with it alongside the most skilled Samurai in the village that took him in.

And he still wields a mean hammer. :D
