Hey guys, pretty excited about these ideas so far! I've been reading the forums, and I'm considering my character, and I'm thinking something physical, since the mental is pretty much covered in the group... I considered social, but a lot of that fall into telepathy, etc. So I'm thinking of a few different ideas...I've always liked Bishop and Gambit from X-Men. The energy absorption and release idea has always been something I like... I also read a lot of Dresden Files, and Harry has these rings on his hands that store kinetic energy, until he releases it. I also like the idea of a "T-1000" type power, almost similar to the video game, "Prototype". My concept is to start with a quiet, meek teenager, who takes a lot of crap from a lot of people, and give him massive physical power of some kind. I like the idea of the internal struggle between personal gain and whats right, the temptation of power, so to speak...
