Taken from [personal profile] iamza.

Leave a comment on this post detailing at least two special powers (e.g. I can see through steel walls, and benchpress weights with my tongue), and one debilitating weakness (e.g. I fall over every ten seconds). These can be as silly or as super as you like. You might also want to include the word "hero" or "villain" somewhere in the comment if you don't want me to decide your moral code by coin toss.

What you'll get (at some point in the unspecified future) is a drabble-post describing one of your heroic (or not-so-heroic, if you prefer to take the villain route) adventures.

Note that no guarantees are made regarding either the quality or the story-telling logic inherent in your adventure.

Hero! :D

Um, let's see...I can do cartwheels at the speed of light, bite through steel and fly. Excellent.

Oh! Shiny!

I have super speed and immortality.

But .. I'm a vampire and therefore everyone is out to get me. (Is that cheating? If so, my weakness could be excrutiating, debilitating pain every time I get near something .... Red in color! =X)

Also, I am a hero.

Coin toss!

Strengths: Can understand and speak any language fluently (including body language, sign language, and the language of love! ^_~ Rrrrow!). Can MacGyver her way into and out of most situations.

Weakness: Can be frighteningly oblivious to the most obvious things sometimes. Also, constantly is loosing and finding personal items. Example: One second she's holding her keys, the next she hasn't the foggiest clue where they are, and she hasn't even really moved more than a foot in that span of time.

Here, have a set cribbed from an NPC in my superhero game:

I can turn invisible, look like other people, and stop time.

My weaknesses are that I have almost no imagination, am perpetually horny, and my powers don't affect anything I'm wearing.

And I'm a Hero.

I'm a hero, naturally :D *strikes a pose, falls off roof*

My powers are that I can slip through time within the last day or so, with the weakness that sometimes I can't control it.

Oh, and I break the fourth wall on occasion.
