The ability to gain a superpower simply by figuring out how it works is way overpowered on its own.


...No, it isn't...it is better then Power Replication when you know how to use the power right from the first time. With Intuitive Aptitude you get an uncontrolled/don't know how to use the replicated ability, if their ability was unstable until they learned how to stabilize it yours is unstable(same goes for strengthening ability, your ability can just become unstable.)

With power replication you automatically get/know how to use the ability, with intuitive aptitude you replicate the ability, but can't control it at first.

Being able to get any superpower at will is overpowered.

Taking Intuitive aptitude off Mercy, putting it on Isaac, taking Isaac's other powers away and just leaving ability replication on it.

That is true Mighty Asgard, but first they have to encounter the power, therefore replicating it. Gaining a power at will is like superpower manipulation, at least the inducing a power part of the ability.

Having to encounter a power before gaining it isn't really much of a limitation when they're attending a school full of hundreds of superhumans. It is overpowered.

Look out, the Asari are attacking the students with their hilariously impractical ship designs! Do not let Tommy Wisea Wizea Wisseau that horrid director know a ship out there looks like that! I thought the Salarians were the type to run false-flag operations, but this is still a cool excuse to introduce the MQ-9 Reaper to the students' field equipment. What the hell did the ESA and CNSA do to get Asari commandoes PO-ed does not matter? We need a class role call (hooray double meanings)!

Great, now I also have my self thinking about:

Super Hero High: Prometheans Rising

Thanks Orinon, now I have to think about how hellish Driver's Ed must be with the Mako thanks to your example of Rouge Angles of Satin. On the other hand, the idea of the squad being the teachers and the crew the other staff is odd enough to warrant the venture of thought.

Wouldn't that depend on whether the replicated power was permanent or temporary?

Power replication, depending on how it works, can be OP or not OP.

If it operated so that you have to make physical contact with a person to replicate their power, so that you only retained the power for a short amount of time (an hour or two), could only replicate one or two powers at a time, and that you didn't gained intuitive knowledge or experience about how to use that power via the replication process, then it isn't terribly OP.

Initially, it would be a pretty useless power. Once you'd gained a lot of experience replicating certain specific powers, you'd catch up on the learning curve some, but a super with the kind of power replication that I described would be eternally pushed into the role of "good at many things, great at none".

Nah, Tara just doesn't have anything to say to him. Keep in mind, she has no idea who he is, or what his powers are.

Name: Isaac Fain
Alias:Khaoes
Morality: Evil
Race: Superhuman*Classified*
Gender:Male
Age:16*Classified*
Sexuality: Bisexual
Nationality: American*Classified*
Height: 5 feet 10 inches
Weight: 140 pounds
Build: Lean with thin muscles
Hair: Silver
Eyes: Violet(if you want your character to be unique make them have one of the rarest eye-colors in the world)
Costume:He wears a white trench coat, a tight white shirt that presses against his muscles, a white utility belt, and white cargo pants tucked neatly into black combat boots, he also has a white mask(like Robin's).


Abilities:*Classified*

Negative Energy Manipulation
Capabilities
Users are in control of negative energy, usually from some inter-dimensional or negative source. Negative energy can come in waves or as tiny particles. Users also able to gather energy from negative influences such sadness, rage,hatred, despair, etc. and channel it into raw power.
This power is usually limited to its destructive force. Negative energy is often unstable and takes a great deal of power and time in order to control its nature.

Applications
Negative Energy Absorption/Negative Energy Conversion
Negative Volatile Constructs/Negative Energy Constructs
Negative Energy Blasts
Flight by riding dark energy
Force-Field Generation of negative energy
Unleash streams and waves of dark energy
Manipulate, shape, and control darkness/shadows


Dorm: Villain

Brief Bio: Isaac Fain grew up in a fairly happy family, not too rich not too poor, just normal. Eventually he gained his abilities, and as with most other people that is when everything changed now he has gone off somewhere, he went to New York to hide, well let's just say New York has a massive "Specials" population, which it does and that is bad simply because...Isaac gets involved in everything, have fun with him and don't let him haunt you.[/quote]

I want to put -serious- levels of restraint on this character, not power-level wise, I just need a teacher for him, maybe a telepath/telekinetic to help him control his ability, or an Ergokinetic, or a mixture of ergo kinetics/telepaths/telekinetics with different specialties, or someone with his power.

So, was Mercy accepted?Because now she only has Telekinetic energy manipulation/telekinesis, well she has had just that!((I'm pretty sure she wasn't, though there was no "Not accepted" either.))

Sorry for triple post, I needed to ask a question and I should stop using posting place for blabber and start using it for important stuff.

Yes, we do use the thread for things other than pregnancy jokes and the occasional well-intentioned ribbing of a funny spelling error that results in me having to apologize for that.
