Anything capable of using magic?

If it does not, then a semi-natural event could be it. Perhaps some unfortunate combination of events caused the magic levels of the planet to rise to a point it was a bomb waiting to go off.

Then, the balance of the magic shifted and.. things began to die.

Is it their old home before some strange accident including Mal trying to deprive all the Miscreants of their abilities to harness their power to take over the whole thing?

That's a possibility...or maybe this planet has something to do with why Mal went psycho. Either way, my lips are sealed.....for now.

Maybe even some 2012 Magi-pocalypse type thing. Maybe the planets aligned, causing a magical overflux, so that nothing with a sentience higher than plants could survive longer than a week without succumbing to strange magic.

My choice if I am limited to the powers on the superpower list and limited to one power is power of imagination.

Power of Imagination is basicly reality warping and I would be use it to gain other powers.

Why not The Superpower List*?
Bow before your unimaginably powerful overlord!

Wait a minute, I'm currently too busy holding a cork in mid air for petty groveling.

Hmmm, I think at the moment my dream power would be Conditional Ability Bestowal*.

If I got it right now, I'd have control of the world by Friday.

P.S. Darn! I lost the game!

Hey! It's the rules; you must tell at least one person you have lost the game and this was the easiest way.

If you are sitting next to someone and you lose, you can tell them you lost, but I didn't have that option.

So i'm thinking of making the last two Miscreants a couple. Mo the Morbid Miscreant and Merry the Merry Miscreant. Two opposites as a couple...should be interesting.

Soooooo...


Anyone have any interesting ideas of how superpowers could work in a high sci-if setting?

Any power could work.

Gimme one and I'll explain it to you in layman's terms.

Subliminal psychic vibration of one's molecules, allowing hyperacceleration of normally-slower movements.

Psychic fortification of muscles and hyperstimulation of motor nerves, allowing them to act and react faster than normal.

Psychic acceleration of time around the brain, heart and lungs, allowing accelerated thoughts, reflexes and motion, with no harm to the circulatory system (as the acceleration comes from speed-up of time, not the overexertion of the body)

Gotta think of something harder than that.
