Powers and Skills and Abilities, Oh My!

[mouthy-merc.livejournal.com]

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!

Chloe sees ghosts, and she feels if there are ghosts or dead bodies around -- no matter how old the dead bodies may be. If there's a ghosts that you need spotted or heard from for plot purposes, Chloe is a good one to use. She can't control (yet) when and where she sees ghosts. In canon she sees them and ghosts come up to talk to her no matter where she is. Problem is, she can't always tell they're ghosts because to her, they're real and solid. This causes problems sometimes in canon because all the people around her who don't know what she can do only see her talking to herself.
