So I came up some abilities I thought would be cool.
Electron Manipulation - The ability to repel and attract someone or something as well as the ability to turn objects into solids, liquids, or gasses.
Light Manipulation - Control the intensity of surrounding light. Doesn't work on the sun though.
Bone Altercation - Change the shape, size, structure, and strength of the owner of the abilities body.
Mirror Image - Create duplicate images of oneself. Controls how the images move with mind.
Nerve Suppression - With touch of hand, the touched location's nerves shutdown temporarily. (ex: touch an arm, the arm is unusable)
Yay or nay?

Those things already exist

(at least in some shape or form)

* Adaptive "Evolution" like Doomsday / countless anime villains--get hit by something once and assuming you survive it, you become immune.
* Forcefields / barriers
* Manipulate Shadows / darkness
* Necromancy (Zombies!)
* Shapeshifting / Lycanthropy (i.e. werewolves, etc but delved a bit into that with insect and snake mimcry)
* Talking to / understanding animals ("Thank you Turtle")

Metallic Armor: This is not the good ol Colossus armor from X-men or Danny Pine because I've tweaked it. Yes the person with this ability can create a metallic like armor which gives them protection and enhanced strength etc BUT they must be in contact with something that is made out of metal. Once they come into contact with something metallic their body somehow duplicates the metal inside their own body and then after about 5 hours they feel 'heavy'. When they feel 'heavy' they can allow the metal to come out of their pores and cover every inch of skin, but this armor can only last for at least 30 minutes before it drips off the users body. So if the person with this ability is wearing a watch with a metal band then automatically their body will start replicating the metal inside to create the armor. and the cool thing is the person can be touching Steel and Titanium and somehow his body still creates the metal inside him and fuses it together.

I'd like to see this one in the mythology, myself. It could potentially be too powerful, though.

A character from the GN,
Sum Quod Sum, Part 2, named Abigail has
this power.

* Danger sense. Basically a self-centered precog ability. Could evolve into sensing danger to people he/she cares about.
* Super-pheromone emission. Can make anyone of the opposite sex want them. Could evolve into making any human being want them.
* Life force absorption. The longer and closer other lifeforms stay in his/her vicinity the weaker they grow and the stronger he/she becomes. Could be hundreds of years old.
* Turning superdense. Can become incredibly durable, heavy and strong at will. Drawback is they wouldn't be able to run or jump with their power active.
* Pocket dimension. The ability to transmit any physical object outside of spacetime and recall it at will.
* Density manipulation. The ability to either shrink an object down to a certain point (the denser it becomes the harder it will be to shrink it more) or enlarge it up to a certain point depending on its nature, e.g. a rock would eventually crumble apart into dust, metal would becomes soft like Play-Doh etc. Could potentially evolve into the power to turn anything liquid, solid or gaseous.
* Bending space. The ability to create a wormhole linking two flat surfaces in mid-air together, say a small hole for reaching your hand through to pick up an object across a room or a door-size portal to get from New York to Tokyo.
* Pain and pleasure. The ability to telepathically control the pain and pleasure centers of the brain. This includes making oneself or others feel no pain or no pleasure or making even the slightest sensations extremely pleasurable or painful to others.
* Animal mind control. The ability to telepathically or empathically influence a specific species, e.g. controlling all manner of arachnids or reptiles. Could evolve into controlling all kinds of animals.
* Skeletal growth control. The ability to grow one's skeleton into spikes, blades or armor. Could evolve into Hawkdaddy's Bone Alteration.
* Hypnosis. The ability to temporarily alter a person's perception of their surroundings, of their memories and even of who they are and what they want. Could evolve into altering a person's perceptions indefinitely.
* Self-sufficiency. The ability of not needing to eat, drink or breathe to live.

What about Enhanced Smell? This allows the person to have their sense a smell like a bloodhound, once they get a scent they can easily track it, combine this ability with someone from the army or special forces and you got a person who can track anyone.
I like the ideas above for speaking with animals. Not to make them your slaves but to have a conversation, or ask them if theve seen a particular object, and sometimes ask them if they will do something for you. Free will for them to decide though. I would really like to see a Native American Hero for this one.
An ideas I've been kicking around for a while is; The ability for no one around you to lie. Kind of like having truth serum emanating from the hero. Not liquid or gooey but more like just being in their presence affects a person (heroes also).
Enhanced smell and the density ideas mentioned above are interesting too.

Might have difficulty with anyone that can fly, teleport or time travel. Not sure about anyone running at superspeed. It's a very cool idea, though.

I would like to see just a normal Shapeshifting ability, not like what we had in the GN where what's her name can change the appearance of another person with a wave of her hand and then change them back, I'm talking about the person themselves being able to change their appearance but not their clothing, no illusions just completely restricted to the organic version.

I was thinking of an ability similar to Peter's old power but not as strong, so i wrote it down. I think it would be an awesome ability to have.
It is Water Manipulation
The Ability to control water in all its forms as well as turning objects into water and vice versa. This ability can alter the temperature of the forms of water even while keeping it in the same form e.g. creating red hot ice. This ability allows the user to turn into water and various forms of water. The user can create and destroy water and split water into its base elements. The user is able to manipulate water on the atomic and sub-atomic level. By-products depend on the user’s personality, imagination and location they grew up in.
Possible Evolved By-products:
• Telepathy: interpreting/controlling the flow of water in a person’s brain.
• Ability Mimiracy: Replicating the flow of water in an evolved human once they have demonstrated their power.
• Rapid Cellular Regeneration: The user subconsciously creates new perfectly replicated cells from water for their own body.
• Healing: With conscious thought, the user can create new cells for another.
• Dehydration: The user can destroy all instances of water in an object or person with conscious thought.
• Lung Adaption (partial): The user can breathe water by separating water into oxygen and hydrogen. This is done subconsciously.
• Clone Creation: The user is able to create clones of people they know or have seen. The clones are made entirely of water but look exactly like the cloned person. If it is a clone of an evolved human, the clone has the ability of the evolved human. When hurt or killed the clone explodes into water and covers the attacker. The water then freezes in an attempt to kill the attacker. The clones are under complete control of the user.
• Teleportation: The user can disintegrate into water and recreate themselves from other bodies of water.
• Temperature Resistance: The user subconsciously maintains a constant body temperature.
Limits:
• Can only be used within 50m of the user. Range can be increased with training.
• The user can only be turned into water and back. The user cannot be turned into anything else.
• The user cannot replicate any ability that uses fire or forms of fire although; heat is not classified as fire.
• Also abilities involving technology cannot be replicated.
• In the early stages of this ability a physical gesture is required to control the ability but as the user becomes more adept, no gesture is required.
• Cannot remove viruses from a human or an evolved human unless replicated from a different ability.
• Clones explode into water if they go outside the user’s range.
• The user can only teleport to an area that has an existing body of water they can recreate themselves from.

Here are some
Stun beams: sends a ball of energy that knocks on the target ( like Wraith stunner from stargate )
Matter producing: can produce all kinds of matter. Like food, Air but also cars, weapons, DVDs and so on
Knowledge absorption: absorbs all the knowledge of a person or an object by touch
Blood analysis: can mimic a person’s power by drinking a few drops of the person’s blood
Ability manipulation: the power to change a person’s ability
Examples Nathan could get power mimic with this power
Could also modify
Ability granting and removing: can give ability to anyone by touch can also remove them
Note the holder of this power has no control over what kind of ability the person gets
Ability modifying: can give side abilities that fits the original ability
Like super speed could get danger sense
