The Harmless Superpower Game!

[Steven_Six]

Sounds easy, right? Just come up with a fully harmless superpower, that is still useful! E-Z.


Or not.


According to the Tv Tropes website, just about every power has a dangerous implication. See Here (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/LethalHarmlessPowers).

So, It's also your goal to find a way to make the person above you cause harm with their superpower. This can be the most complicated way ever, so long as it has above a chance of really happening, and it causes harm, to the user or the target. In other words...

RULES:
0: Obey the normal rules for PXR. No swearing, no violent bloody murder specifics (implied is fine), all that.
1: Your power has to have a real use! Don't say "the ability to breathe" or anything foolish like that.
2: As long as the power above you can be used for harm, the game rolls on. When even I concede defeat, you win.
3: Remember you probably won't win this.

And so, to start... Invincibility! Bullets just bounce off you, blades shatter, and you could swallow fire without burning from the inside!

[HKim]

That's easy. Just apply the laws of physics. You fall from any large enough distance and smash those beneath you. A person would bounce off you as easily as a bullet. But if you're going several miles per hour...

Now here's a real harmless superpower: Light! The ability to make anything a light source that glows and illuminates!

[Fate]

That sounds harmless until you start losing control of it and start making light without meaning to. And then it's late at night and a serial killer breaks into your house and you're hiding somewhere in the dark. And then all of a suddenly your power goes off and your location is given away.

Now here's a harmless one: Instantaneously multiplying any two numbers.

[Sir Sivelos]

I just edited your post to make sure the link works. This sounds fun though, I'll give it a shot.

That can be harmful. Here's why: By "any two numbers," do you mean strictly related to math? Or could it any concept that can be summed up in a number? For example, you could 'multiply' the numerical value of somebody's age. They'd go from 16 to 32 just like that, or even farther. That's a pretty dangerous power, I'd say.

As for my power… the ability to move things, no matter the size, at any velocity you want (however, you can't make it go faster than or equal to the speed of light). The object also has to be in your line of sight.

[pokemon trainer Felix]

harmless?, but if you move a sword inide of a person they die


here is a power that is harmless: the ability to shapeshift but only to a tiny fish and back to a human and you can only turn in to a fish when you are in water so you do not kill yourself.

[Neo Emolga]

But as a tiny fish, you could be eaten by a larger fish. You would either die, or the fish that ate you would have to die as you transformed back into human while inside them.

Here's a harmless superpower: the ability to release scented perfume from your hands!

[Steven_Six]

GACK! I'M ALLERGIC!

Hm. Now for... Ordinary flight!

[Neo Emolga]

You accidentally crash into birds, bats, bugs, and ultimately a helicopter. Ouch.

Here's a harmless superpower: the ability to complete all your paperwork instantaneously!

[Sir Sivelos]

All the paperwork necessary to execute a nuclear launch?

You now have the power to obtain any singular piece of information you want; however, you have to lose another, equally valuable piece of information to compensate.

[AWA1997]

You gain the knowledge of how to save someone from drowning, but forget how to swim, leading to the death of both the person you went to save and yourself.

The power to phase through objects or people at will, you have to focus hard to go through what you are currently standing on, and you cannot re-solidify until you are in open air.

[Steven_Six]

You know... What would happen if you focus so hard you sorta... Go through the earth. Let's be honest, there's pockets of air in there somewhere. And how about going into a top-secret bunker? That would suck. As for this run... Let's do... The ability to levitate objects. But not that high - only like at eye level.

[AWA1997]

I put the part about going through what you're standing on to stop the going through the earth cliche, but eh, whatever.

Someone's sleeping on the floor, you levitate a sword over them, then let the sword drop onto them.

The ability to see atoms. That's it. No controlling them, no nothing, just seeing them.

[Steven_Six]

SELF-JUSTIFICATION: Well, if you're standing on grass or the actual earth... There's not floor everywhere.

[AWA1997]

I said whatever you're standing on, so that would be a floor, the earth, anything you're standing on. I didn't say it was impossible, I just wanted it to be extremely unlikely and deter you from using the cliche. Plus, I moved on already XD

[Steven_Six]

As for seeing atoms... Uh. Hm. Er.
Time for some outside help...
OPERATION DISCORD (Don't worry, this is the only time OPERATION DISCORD will be launched.)
We have determined that although it is a harmless power, electrons go REALLY FRIDGING FAST and would just make it into a orb-type thing. You wouldn't be able to identify anything like this. Thus, it is deleted through the USELESSNESS clause. And for this, we had the people of discord make the next one...

And it is... Well. They are too busy thinking. Hm. We need to fill the game with something, so… The power to settle disputes instantly!

[AWA1997]

You'd be able to narrow down some things by their size though, and if you could see the electrons, you could also tell if something was radioactive.

Steven_Six as for that power, just because the dispute is settled doesn't mean that people like the answer. Instead, it only escalates to violence when one person realizes they were wrong and won't admit it for themselves.

[HKim]

AWA, that's the worst power of all!

As you grow in your ability, you'll be able to see electrons, both their speed and position! This is a violation of quantum mechanics! You'd literally destroy the universe with that knowledge because it is something man was not meant to know (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/TheseAreThingsManWasNotMeantToKnow)!


Also, just wanted to say that. Steven's power is still the next one up:

"And it is... Well. They are too busy thinking. Hm. We need to fill the game with something, so… The power to settle disputes instantly!"

[AWA1997]

I already said about Steven's (edited it in before you posted), so I think it's your turn, since mine still had disputing (or so it seemed) until you gave one way it'd be harmful.

[Steven_Six]

Well. We need to keep this alive, so...

The power to make extremely good cooking... That's HEALTHY! At the same time.
Super-greasy cheeseburgers that are still healthy! AMAZEMENT
