What's A Better Power?

Question

I'm going to write a 'X-Men: Evolution' story on FF.Net, and I still haven't decided what my character's power should be. So, out of these choices, which is a better power:

·Clairvoyance & Clairaudience (Ability to see or senses events that aren't in normal human perception. Clairaudience is the auditory form of this.)

·Snake-Like Abilities (Such as a very good sense of smell, being able to inject venom, ability to feel vibrations, etc.)

·Precognition & Retrocognition (Ability to see into the future. Retrocognition is the ability to see into the past.)

Note: Clairvoyance is different from Precognition in that it may be being able to see events that are far away, but actually taking place. Precognition is seeing events that have not happened yet.

I forgot to mention my character is going to be a female.

Answer 1

I think the 2nd one would be the best for an action type of role, maybe like a stealthy type of character.

The last one would be good for a more intelligent type of role, like a person that acts like a detective and tries to figure out what they are seeing and tries to stop events from happening.

Hmmmm, having a little trouble seeing what you might want to do with the first one. But I think either of the last two powers would be good depending on the type of stories you want to write.

Answer 2

I would say no to 1 and 3. B/c it is to much like a psychic. The snake ability is something more relatable. I you can go even further with it. Like moving like a snake to sneek up on or being able to use muscles as a snake does. Eating enemies whole and alive would be cool. The deal with precog and retrocog doesn't fit well with me. Seeing the future deminishes the ability to protect in a sense that you will already know whats coming.

But those are just my opinions.

Answer 3

Precognition & Retrocognition... that sounds cool, but I also like the snake like abilities... more manly... is your character going to be female or male?

Answer 4

Precognition & Retrocognition. I think those would be really cool abilities.

Answer 5

I'd say the snakelike thing, because the other 2 have kinda been done to death, I could name you like 20 heroes/villains that have those kinds of powers, but not too many that can feel vibrations and inject venom.

Answer 6

Precognition would probably be the best power, 'cuz you would know what to expect in a battle w/the bad guys. What kind ofo character image will he/she have?

Answer 7

I'd go for the snake,

You might not be able to see into the past or future, but it would be the CLOSEST to the cairvoyance. you would be able to sense if someone was trying to sneak up on you, and you have the muscles to fight. So go with the serpant powers.

Answer 8

i say 2 one seeing the future is overdone theres so many stories and shows about stuff like that be different do the 2 one

Answer 9

precognition and retrocognition

Answer 10

I'd go with the first power you mentioned. Sounds more intellectual.
