You ever have that interesting idea for a power in the wormverse but don't have the actual writing talent or are simply too lazy to write a snippet where you crudely replace Taylor with your character like some sort of changeling? Well here's a nice place to post these incomplete OCs.
Here's a Generic Profile Template feel free to use it if you want but go nuts with what you want.
Give as much or as little details as you want.
And for those who want to participate but don't think they can come up with something creative on their own, or simply for those who are bored and want to kill time I made a simple power creator guideline
Step 1: Give traumatic event to use as a trigger and become a Parahuman.
Step 2: Pick either a vague descriptor or a Power Classification
Step 3: Roll 1d20 to determine how powerful your abilities will be. High rolls might ignore Manton Limits while low rolls might cause power complications.
Step 4: GM/Other poster gives you your power based on the above specs.
(Optional)
Step 5: Determine Morality; Moral, Jerk, Monstrous
Step 6: Determine alignment; Hero, Rogue, Villain
Step 7: Determine what group you are affiliated with if any. (Protectorate, Sponsored, Independent, etc.)
Now Post your OCs! The power of Squirrelly compels you!

Odd, almost seemingly arbitrary, limits of certain powers. In most cases this refers to the inability of a power effect living objects such as people, animals, and plants or inversely a power that only works on living matter. Other times it refers to the inability to only effect part of an object or to generate their power within said object or person. The last common usage is powers that can only effect others and not the user. It is commonly assumed that the existence of the Manton Effect is self preservation, protection against accidentally injuring or killing oneself via power usage.
While not part of the Manton Effect there are other common limiters placed on powers: Thinker Headaches that cause severe migraines with prolonged usage of mental powers. Tinker Blackboxing which refers to the oddity of Tinkertech being nigh impossible to reproduce even among other Tinkers. Endbringer Immunity, many powers are unable to directly effect Endbringers and they are immune to most stranger, master, trump, thinker, and striker powers. Power Quirks, many powers also have small little quirks personally tailored to them such only working fully under certain conditions or interacting oddly with certain effects.
Powers without Manton Limits are extremely rare and dangerous, both to others and to the user.

Not all powers are good, not all powers can be considered a blessing. Many tend to have very little in terms of a silver lining. The complications that can come from a power vary wildly in effect and severity. Always On powers are always in effect, for subtle powers like durability this doesn't matter but some like Poison skin or Laser Eyes is very hard to deal with. Mutations, rarely powers may permanently change physical appearance sometimes in very horrifying ways. Uncontrollable Powers, not every aspect of a power is controllable this can range from randomly changing the strength of an effect to randomly activating the effect against the capes will. Mental Issues, some powers greatly alter the mind, changing perceptions, thought process, personalities, or even forcing overwhelming compulsions.
