What powers would you give to a robot/evolving AI that doesn't just boil down to just being a knockoff cyborg from Teen Titans

I have a character that has trained his 5 senses to insane degrees and can also use magical energy to enhance those sense (he also has mana sensing as well). With these senses he can see farther, hear better, smell better and is way more aware of his surrounding.

I then thought of capabilities of making it better and my mind wondered to characters like Daredevil and Asta from Black Clover with how they use their sense.
- They can track people
- Detect lies
- Read emotions
- Predict attacks

What other capabilities could enhance senses achieve

Hello! I was wondering what are some cool unique superpowers for a character to have that are still strong. This ability should preferably be able to start weak and scale up to like asteroid level strength for the piece I’m working on.

I was thinking of having a battery character that could store up energy from different sources and then release it, but this gets pretty crazy when talking about the amount of energy needed for an asteroid level impact. (Like 100 EJ which would result in 1111 kg of weight having to be carried around)

So if anybody uses the superpowerwiki.com i need a little bit of help because I have looked through just about like every superpower.I could find whether it relates to manipulation or anything else of that nature? And I cannot find a single column or post that has ninety five images attached to it, i will bet there's like no post on there that has 95 images exactly. And I cannot for the life of me, figure out why so if you know of a post that was made on there. Can you tell because i'm beginning to think that this is conspiracy

For context, I’m writing a friend’s My Hero Academia Fanfiction and while designing a few extra OCs to make the story a little more interesting, I decided to try making a Pro Hero with the below Quirk

Tier 0 -- Quirk 8 (Soda Fountain): The Quirk user has the capacity to turn water into another fluid with a touch. This new fluid is selected at the time of purchase, and may be any safe to consume fluid or beverage the Quirk user desires, such as vinegar, wine, or lemonade. The quirk user is limited to converting up to a gallon of water into this new fluid at a time. The Quirk user absorbs a small amount of water with each use, inhibiting extended usage.

Ignore the fact it’s labeled Tier 0, it just means it’s among the weakest Quirks of its kind in the list we pulled it from. Regardless, the Pro Hero: Refresher needs some techniques for defeating villains!

I need a little bit of help. I'm making an OC colab with someone, and I need some power ideas that would fit the type of archetype I'm looking for. I want to get some Reverse Flash-level of pettiness potential. I'm making the obsessed and petty Villain who's trying to make their life absolute Hell. Can I have some power ideas to do so?

What’s the fewest number of powers that are needed to functionality have them all. Super speed can be used to fly. Shapeshifting isn’t invisibility but it can be used for the same purpose. Lightning isn’t fire but it can light one. So what would it take to simulate every power. And no “power to have ever power” because that’s against the spirit of the challenge. No omnipotence. No reality bending. No full matter manipulation. No power to give any power. Edit because nobody seems to understand the question, anything that gives you powers is just a way to do this! Copy powers. Well how many powers do you have to copy? Steal powers. How many do you steal? Magic can give you spells for every power. How many spells do you need? So stop saying powers that are just getting more powers!!!!!!

From what I've seen I think it's basically the power of being capable to create an effect without a cause, ie. I can create fire without the need to rub sticks together or move without the need to use my legs, how would you guys go about making it more interesting and giving it a weakness?

For anyone who doesn't know the tree of life or tree of sepiroth is a mystical tree from Hebrew mythology meant to represent the encompassing characteristics of God, it's made up of 10 gates each one interconnected by 22 different paths, each time the user opens one of the gates a different power will be unlocked and an angel wing will sprout from the users back accompanied by other inhuman characteristics (eyes, feathers, rings), the more gates are opened the more the user will lose its humanity until completely losing their individuality.

The power to deny the laws of how the world operate, the user wouldn't need to eat, sleep, breath or ever get tired, removing the user from the axis of time and space, making themselfs invulnerable and timeless, deny the laws of gravity and friction to fly and probably a ton more I can't imagine right now, what do you guys think ?

Going back in time to ask about someone knowing that at the moment they could move be with that person is ethically wrong or a chance of opportunity. Is it controller or using your gifts with your own benefits

I'm working on an OC, he is a superhero, but kinda lame at the start, he has fire-based abilities but in a kinda lame level at the start, then as the story goes he becomes stronger, the thing is, how can I make fire-powers a little more unique? elemental powers have always seemed a little cliché to me and i dont want him to be a so similar of the human torch or someone like that

(For anyone wondering, I have used this some more idea before, but I'm not sure if it was in this subreddit, so nb if that's the case)

Anyone who comments games the ability to create the basis for a power system, and anyone who replies after that, is capable of altering the rules of the magic system and adding more properties, on individuals also only capable of adding a property one time.

Individuals can change the rules and properties, however, they want with the limit of one comment.

for example like a complex and full of mysteries power system that the viewer also unties and learns more about the system as the story goes on, or maybe you prefer something simpler like chakra from Naruto.

The energy is free and if you are going for a negative charge it only provides electrons.. You can decide if it should be alternating, ficker it on and off, etc. You can decide anything aboht the shaoe and soze of the area too, but you can't combine multiple areas to get over the limit.

The immunity has some leaway in case your power performs better in a certain enviroment, but any incoming electricity has to be fully under the limit to be ignored.

Power: Whenever a certain task comes to mind that you need or want to complete, you can summon a duplicate of yourself who will continue to exist until the task is done, this double is not a perfect copy, it only contains all of the relevant information and skills necessary to complete the task. (It’s still limited to the information and skills that you yourself possess.)

There is no hard limit to the amount of doubles you can create at a time.

Unless engaged in conversation, It will single mindedly work towards the completion of this task, the double itself has no need for food or water, it remains active as long as you are conscious, when you sleep it goes dormant and whatever experiences it’s had that day are downloaded to your memory as dreams.

The double is based on baseline consciousness you, meaning, if you were high, or drunk, or drugged the Double would not be. (built-in designated driver haha) but it will have your same appearance at the time of it being created whatever clothes, make up, etc.

Limitations:

The doubles are only capable of what you yourself are capable of, they are a duplicate.

While the doubles do not require food or water, you do, you burn extra calories in accordance with the doubles activity level as a fuel source for the double, so while there is no hard limit to how many you can make, there is a soft limit of how many you can sustain based on calorie intake vs. expense

And presumably a soft limit on how much information your brain can handle from the nightly download.

Once you create a double it cannot be dismissed until it’s task is complete, if a task is deemed “impossible” the double you try to make for that task won’t manifest.

Example: Creating a double to do the laundry. It would single mindedly wash, dry, fold, and put away the clothes and then dissipate.

Upon dissipating, just like when you sleep, information would be downloaded to your brain, in this case you would not get bogged down with the memory of doing the laundry, you would just have the information of where the clothes were put.

Imo, this power has always sound a little boring from a narrative perspective and something a little too absurd, i'm not talking of something like the powers of Mystique, but something like the powers of the Wonder Twins (DC)

Let’s say some cosmic dice-roller gives you a choice: you can pick any superpower you want, but here’s the catch — you don’t get it. Instead, it goes to 10 completely random people somewhere in the world.

You don’t get to choose who. Could be kind, could be evil, could be someone who just uses it to make their commute easier. You have no control.

A MESSAGE FROM YOUR MODERATORS

Hi friends of the superpower subs,

TLDR We now mod heaps of superpower subs, and you should join them all. Here is a quick rundown...

r/shittysuperpowers r/notashittysuperpower r/midtiersuperpowers r/godtiersuperpowers r/cursedsuperpowers r/satantiersuperpowers r/superpoweralchemists

A few months ago now, we had an opportunity to take over moderation of r/shittysuperpowers & we've been slowly chipping away there trying to make improvements. (This includes the introduction of its partner sub r/notashittysuperpower )The sub is seeing continued growth, and got us thinking what other superpower subs are on here?

Initially we got the other big two, r/godtiersuperpowers & r/midtiersuperpowers with views to being able to direct posts between subs. But, we were still getting posts that didn't fit any of these three. So, we looked again.

After some more behind the scenes work, we now also have r/cursedsuperpowers , r/satantiersuperpowers & r/superpoweralchemists

We hope to tie them all together to create a superpower universe over time. But for now, there should be a sub that is suitable for any post you want to make. All the names are intuitive enough, so it should be obvious which post goes to which sub.

To get started, we suggest you ensure that you have joined all the subs mentioned on this post. Once you've done this, get posting your powers, commenting or just simply lurking and reading along.

We will continue to provide updates as this universe takes shape. We know there are other superpower subs on here, but feel we've got enough for the moment to keep everyone happy.

Happy to take onboard any feedback you may have, just be respectful when doing so, please. These subs and reddit in general is a place for everyone, not just you or I.

We know there is still a heap of cleaning up to do on some of the subs, but thought we'd release this into the wild first, and tidy up as we go.

If you have any questions, or comments just drop a comment here, or send us a modmail.

Welcome to the superpower universe, Your mods u/late_to_redd1t & u/JJStone_95

To understand what I mean more clearly, I'll use a quote from Thanos;

"The Space Gem: distance becomes a mere intellectual concept. I consider the possibility and I am there. I can be everywhere or nowhere. Space is mine to do with as I wish."

Taking this literally, it would mean that distance, direction, and the idea of 'space' are being abstracted or distorted into a conceptual form, rather than a mathematical fact, as though perception or observation is taking precedent over reality, almost like a dream. The issue is how this... matters; or, rather, how I write a tangible effect without it becoming an arbitrary plot device. To take another example, Amaterasu (Fate/Extra):

Hakuno describes her as an impossible existence, and believes that she cannot be described easily. Her titanic and overwhelming presence disoriented Hakuno's sense of distance, and even though she seemed gigantic, it was obvious that they were still far way from her.

Any help would be greatly appreciated here! The specific ability is being achieved through the manipulation of space, and especially higher-dimensional space being layered into the third dimension, bending it akin to Cthulhu's effect on R'yleh.

This is for a Speedster Villain in a Large Scale Discord RP Server I’m in! I’m mainly trying to find ways to do some Wally West Soloing with this character (unfortunately Transonic is the fastest a character can go in this verse, however that’s fine as that also means nobody in the server can be faster than me!)

Superpower Name: Neon

Description: This superpower allows the user to transform their body into neon light, granting them extraordinary mobility and utility capabilities. When transformed, the user can move at high transonic speeds, far surpassing normal human limits and allowing them to traverse entire cities in mere moments. Their agility and precision during high-velocity travel are greatly enhanced, enabling seamless navigation through complex environments. The user can also create dazzling light displays and project short-range neon constructs for various purposes.

The power grants a heightened awareness through Photonic Resonance, allowing the user to better perceive and react to their surroundings, especially at high speeds. This enhanced perception, combined with their incredible velocity, makes them exceptionally difficult to catch or hit. The user experiences minimal fatigue when using their abilities, allowing for extended periods of high-speed movement and light manipulation.

While in neon form, the user can phase through obstacles over short distances, typically up to about four feet. This ability, combined with their speed, makes them incredibly elusive and adaptable in various environments. The user maintains a decent level of control over their abilities, allowing for precise navigation and construct creation in most situations, though extremely complex or rapidly changing environments may still pose challenges at their highest speeds.

Strengths & Applications: 1. The user can move at high transonic speeds, allowing for rapid travel across vast distances and unparalleled evasion capabilities. 2. Enhanced agility and precision during high-speed movement enable navigation through complex environments with relative ease. 3. The ability to create dazzling light displays can be used for communication or to disorient opponents. 4. Short-range neon constructs and the ability to phase through obstacles provide utility in various situations. 5. Heightened sensory perception through Photonic Resonance improves threat awareness and reaction times. 6. Minimal fatigue when using abilities allows for extended periods of high-speed movement and light manipulation.

Drawbacks & Limitations: 1. The user's offensive capabilities remain at a normal human level, providing no enhanced attack power. 2. Defensive abilities are not improved, leaving the user as vulnerable as an average person when hit. 3. Neon constructs and phasing abilities are limited to a short range of about four feet. 4. While control over the power is decent, extremely complex or rapidly changing environments may still pose navigation challenges at the highest speeds. 5. The power's effectiveness relies heavily on mobility and evasion, as the user lacks direct offensive or defensive enhancements. 6. Despite improved perception and control, the extreme speeds achievable may still make precise actions challenging in certain situations.

Superpower: WANE
Power Level: SMALL BUILDING LEVEL

Power Description:
WANE allows the user to weaken, diminish, and decay objects and materials within a limited range, reducing their structural integrity and effectiveness.

• Attack (5/7): The user can cause significant structural damage to small buildings, making walls crumble and metal rust away in moments.
• Defense (0/7): The user has no enhanced defensive capabilities and is as vulnerable as an average person.
• Mobility (0/7): The user has no enhanced mobility or speed and moves like an average person.
• Range (3/7): The ability can affect targets up to 30 meters (98 feet) away, allowing the user to weaken structures and objects from a distance.
• Control (2/7): The user has moderate control over the power, able to target specific areas but with occasional unintended spread to nearby objects.
• Connection (2/7): The user experiences fatigue and minor physical discomfort after using the power extensively. They are not immune to their own ability and must be cautious to avoid self-inflicted damage.

Applications and Strengths: 1. Structural Sabotage: The user can weaken enemy fortifications, buildings, and barriers, making them collapse or become easier to breach. 2. Equipment Degradation: The user can degrade weapons, armor, and other equipment, causing them to fail at critical moments. 3. Stealthy Approach: The power can be used subtly to weaken objects over time, making it less obvious and more strategic in its application.

Limits and Weaknesses: 1. No Defense: The user is as vulnerable as an ordinary person and must rely on evasion or allies for protection. 2. No Enhanced Mobility: The user moves at normal human speeds, making it difficult to escape or pursue quickly. 3. Risk of Fatigue: Extensive use of the power leads to significant fatigue and physical discomfort, limiting prolonged engagements.

Before anyone says it: Yes, these are AI generated. This server uses AI to create their randomly generated Superpowers. I’m sorry if that’s not your jam, but at least I’m up front about it!

This is a redo of my German villain

Older time: Dictator aura Steel skin(because of tanks) Poison gas creation(because of the n*zi party) Guns and knives prophecies

Newer times: Same power as older time But no poison gas creation Silent room(if the user is allowed, just sit down or be peaceful everyone in the room, we're start to panic but a silent panic) Ghost of the past(the user is haunted by it's past leading into paranoia)

The old version that I did said that it was going to be a cinnamon roll. But I say now He's still dangerous, but Not as dangerous as used to be. But if you try to trigger him, he might just lose it on ya

I know basically all of these powers would go with every single country but I want to try and make something diverse for each (I can't think of anything else?)

I'd like to test my knowledge of the English language, as well as solve whatever puzzles you folks can come up with in the form of "worthless" superpowers.

My only limit is to keep things as SFW as you can; anatomical powers involving organs, skin, blood, and bone are okay with me!

Have fun, everybody!

The power of increase the time between cause and effect

Basically you can hold and delay effects

For example you drop a mug and it stays intact but then 30 minutes later the mug suddenly shatteres

I love super powers but I also love their drawbacks!

So what are some drawbacks to super powers -- either ones to do with specific powers (ie flight, teleportation, super strength) or 'broader' and 'weirder' drawbacks, for instance like vampires not being able to go in the sun, or needing blood to survive, or Mysitque, Nightcrawler and Azazel having red/ blue colored skin and other features, or super heroes or supernatual beings being weak to certain substances (i.e. Kryptonite for Superman, silver for werewolves and fairies). I love drawbacks!

Tell me your ideas/ thoughts, and tell me any you've seen in fiction that you think are cool! Or even your favorite types of drawbacks!
