Well how about this.
We have a hero whose name is already floating around. Ultrawoman.
She's one of this world most powerful hero's it's only natural that some things might get left lying around.
Ashley's not sure exactly how it happened. It only lasted a second, she was caught in the middle of a superhero fight then everything changed and she thought she fainted.
But when she woke up she realized she had a strange ability. If she focused on anyone within her line of sight she found she would be looking through their eyes in addition to her own. She could see what others were seeing. At least that's how it started, then she could smell that they smelled, now she can hear what they hear.
As time went on another power emerged, she got momentary flashes of the future. They were few and far between usually one every few months but they've been getting more frequent once every month. They only last a few minutes but they always come true. Sometimes it's something that takes place mere seconds in the future other time it takes places a year later.
One of these visions told her the exact time and place a bank robbery (or some other crime) was going to happen and she was able to call the police before the event actually happened. So the cops and robbers showed up at the same time. This is the event that made her both slightly famous and a matter of interest to the government.
Hows that sound?
Sure. That sounds really cool.
Perhaps it could be some sort of serial killer or someone in connection with the cartel. Then I could create a villain sometimes in the future.
Sounds like a great plan. So her powers and weaknesses could be
Power 1 Other Sight: By focusing on a living creature in her line of sight Ashley can sense what it is sensing in addition to her regular senses. So she would see what her target sees and what she sees. Can only target one person at a time, has a range equal to her line of sight, lasts as long as she can concentrate and takes a few seconds to activate.
Power 2 Future Vision: At random Ashley can get random visions of the future. They are infrequent, and she usually can't decide when the visions are from or what they're about.
Weakness 1: After using her Other Sight Ashely suffers from a powerful bout of vertigo as her senses realign to their original methods.
Weakness 2: Bouts of her future vision are sickening and disturbing. She usually feels the need to vomit after receiving them, and they can be quite debilitating the stronger they are.
Weakness 3: Ashely suffers from vague nightmares regarding the origins of her powers. She rarely has a good nights sleep as the day she fell unconscious in the middle of a fight between Ultrawoman and a supervillain seems to reply violently in her mind. So in the morning she is always out of sorts. (This last one I'm iffy on.)
This is just a suggestion, but you see how it could work?
