Well, it doesn't allow me to DO anything to the inside of said machine, it would only help me decide what action to take. For example, I could make the outrageous claim that my repair shop knows EXACTLY what's wrong with your car, I would touch each car once, and tell my mechanics exactly what parts to order.

Nonono! you don't understand! I don't make no stinking stew!
CABBAGE IS MY POWER! It cannot be shared or explained to others.
Only feared.
Be wary and do not bestow upon yourself the wrath of CABBAGE.

Right-o!

Can we still speak of cabbage?



And a rather off-topic point: Mr. Bob, you are very much like someone I know. So much, in fact, that only your artistic skill proves you are not him.

I actually have a superpower!

I don't sweat under the armpits, so I never stink. And I never have to worry about deodorants or shower after gym.

I shall never try to kill you in person now.

If there's one thing I've learnt about this sort of thing, it's: the stinkiest people always claim to not stink.

Hmm... I think I'd have the power to have my body change so I got cat ears, tail fangs and paws, at will! It would've been neat! :D
Not using Keenspace, I just am here. For some reason. Probably because I'm making a webcomic. Yeah.

If I couldn't learn it on my own, I wouldn't take that, that would be like, using cheatcodes to draw comics.
Brrr, I hate them cheating llamas.

How about telekinesis that only works on fruit?
It would be easier to pick cherries/apples from tall trees.
(Or just simple, very weak telekinesis- ie. as strong as blowing air at something)

Or maybe

power to read animals brains. (too major?)
power to know where the north is.
power to recive TV with your mind.
You are the Non. You must go now, and never return."

"1.Scan in high res 2.tweak with curves,levels or something to clean up the scan (or use channel mixer to remove blue pencil lines) 3.Add colour using a layer set to multiply. 4.Add wordbubbles and text as vector shapes. 5. Merge all layers. 6.resize to the web size. 7. Export/Save for Web" that's all I know about webcomicking.

I played with another player once who only wanted one superpower - very general ESP that only worked on one person at a time. The player requested, and got, the sub-ability to put people on "hold" to take another "call".

Then, he decided his character would have a career as a failed musician - making musak for elevators. Yeah, you guessed it. When he put someone on "hold" mentally, he would automatically pipe musak directly into their brains.

We used him mostly to torture people we didn't much care for (we weren't a nice bunch of superheros).
