First of all, i would need some help with a title. Most of my characters have abilities, but some possess certain abilities that make them special. I don't know how to name such a person, like how do you tell them apart from the rest? One option would be to call them Saints, like "the Saint of …." but that has been used before and i'm afraid it might sound cliche
Second, would be ability or quirk ideas. I tried researching superpowers, but none were satisfying. I'm looking for unusual powers, like the ability to use a mountain's attributes (manipulating stone and making their voice echo like they're in the mountains, you get the point). Anything out of the usual is good (My Hero Academia is a good example of that)
Last, if you feel like it, could you suggest a name for the ability, like how do you call this? Ability? Quirk? Gift?
Thank you in advance!
Hi there. I hope you don't mind me putting my two pence in but I love these sorts of ideas. If you're struggling with finding powers, picture your character and give them a power that contradicts that. For example, a big burly man full of hatred and malice and scorn for the world, but can calm anybody down if he touches them/looks in their eyes, whatever. Play around with the perceptions behind supernatural abilities. Like a person that is adequate at anything they try, not perfect, not superhuman, but if they try something, it will work in a round about sort of way.
With regards to naming them, its best to think about where they come from, are you born with them? Do you inherit them at a certain age? Can you turn them on and off? Do you have to seek them out?
All this can help inform you of the name to give them and if you're really stuck, just make a new word. If its something the world has never seen before, nobody would know what to call it. It could be a part of the narrative that the word changes depending on who you talk to and how it has affected their community.
I'm sorry for such a long post. I hope some/any of that makes sense, and if not gives you inspiration, at least gives you an idea of what you don't want.
Happy writing xx
