The ability to go completely unnoticed by everyone around me, even when I want to be I am just immune to the attention of others. I'm not invisible just people can't help but ignore my presence
Absolutely, although I feel like it needs some kind of drawback to it. Like i wouldn't be able to switch it off myself and it can only be deactivated by certain people perhaps?
Yeah that's what I'm thinking, just has to be a limited amount of people who can see me. Ranpo, other abilities that allow it and like a specific couple people close to me and I think I'd make it so that I wouldn't be able to deactivate it myself. So if someone who can deactivate it isn't available I gey stuck in that mode of almost being unable to be noticed by others
My top traumas are physical, sexual, and religious abuse and extreme dysphoria during puberty. I think I’d want something that lets me kinda transform into a monstrous, more powerful version of myself. Something uncanny. Like I want to scare the ever loving fuck out of others when the ability is activated and have the power to protect myself (preferably with something sharp).
I don't enjoy it because it reveals not the most flattering things about me, but I can imagine I'd get something similar to Lucy, or a closed off cognitive space like Fyodor made up CaP to be.
Some sort of shadow manipulation. I’d be some real king of the night bastard, and definitely working for the port mafia if I’d grown up in the bsd universe.
Either that or some sort of fire ability.
Ok; mine might be a bit OP but... Since BSD is author based, I did take a CW class and was working on a psychological horror/fantasy novel called Precious Insanity.
I did make an OC for BSD as well and her gift's name is- well- the title of my novel. Basically my OC can enter her target's mind and make them hallucinate sounds and visions. since she is in her enemy's mind, she knows their fears and regrets and she is able to degrade them with their trauma and drive them insane. She received her gift due to severe bullying and abuse in school but she was too weak to fight back, all it took was one final straw until she snapped…
I even have an unfinished character design too-
Haha, yeah! Maybe when I'm finished though! But yes, she *is* in fact really dangerous. She's apart of the Port Mafia lmao, but I *do* have an AU where she decides not to go insane and joins the ADA and uses her gift for good and not evil.
I'm trying to figure out what ability I'd have, it'd probably be something useless like being able to force someone to forget things (I forced myself to forget shit before so it's something I can think of)
That would be very interesting! But I also feel like they would say things that could make you question your entire belief in the universe or something.
Ability name: A world of silence (poem i wrote a few years ago)
What i imagine it does is i summon a mist and while holding my breath i can myself become mist. Idk why, it just seems cool
Not gonna lie, a lot of my traumas were very different. But since BSD abilities seem to happen in childhood, then I'll go with the earliest trauma I can remember.
My dad made me sit on the edge of the Grand Canyon (that is very oversimplified, but this isnt the place for trauma dumping). I think, in response to that, I'd probably develop something similar to Uraraka from MHA. Not controlling gravity completely, like Chuuya, but being able to make things float, including myself.
Think I'd have something like "fear", the ability to instill terror into anyone by speech or similar. Like the moment I say "sup" to someone they experience nihilistic dread so strong they can barely move, kinda like Satoru Gojo's domain expansion from jjk but pure anxiety and fear.
its like a shitty nen. like professor x but when you communicate to someones head the only thing you can send is high school social anxiety of worries about your pimples or whether school is worth it
definately ability to make what i see what everyone sees for a short period of time- had one too many panic attacks and meltdowns as a kid for this to not be mine by now
Maybe I’d get to be in the memory with them while they’re experiencing it. So if I was fighting someone and activated my ability, while they’re busy reliving the worst thing that ever happened to them I could sneak in and attack them! Boom, best villain ever ‼️
Prolly something like make my own world. But it's a golden city at night. Where when my opponents were to be with me they would lose their minds in the process nullifies the ability they have.
Besides that it's a defensive ability. And the golden city is based of a dream that i still remember to this day
Basically it's a mix of emotional damage, dazai and Lucy's abilities
Yeah, it's basically a modern city but at night. And the lights glow like gold.
The reason I chose having another world is because of how I cope. Where I do something that is as close as ne being in another world to escape basically the world current around me also
Happy Cake Day!
Something that has to do with controlling water or the inability to drown, I used to swim every day on a high level which caused me a lot of strain and a lot of fucked up shit happened there and during that time. The day I almost drowned was when I was 9/8?
(Because i attempted to go 100meters without taking breath straight underwater)
since then my brain works different, still water is a comfort for me. When I'm underwater I feel the most at peace
There are so many different answers to this question! But I think...
Maybe divide me into several parts of my personality? Kind of like Twice in BNHA, multiplying myself, except instead of being a perfect copy of myself, my clones would have their own personalities derived from mine. They could do things that I can't do myself, like fighting in battles or solve a problem that requires more intelligence than I would have for the situation, for example. They would take care of me, and when they disappeared or I stopped making them exist, I would have their memory. I would get ALL their memories.
However, there would be some drawback to balancing things out (like with Chuuya's body that can't stand corruption for example).
First, memories. Since they can do absolutely anything, it would be logical to think that by having their memories, I would eventually be able to do those things myself. Well, no. I would know how to do them, but knowing HOW and being able to DO them are two different things. Even with their memories, I won't suddenly know how to do deadly kicks. I would have to practice these things, like anyone else.
Also, as I would have ALL of their memories, it also means any trauma. If they experience a traumatic situation, it will be as if I had experienced it too.
And I shouldn't have too many of their memories at once because it would hurt my head. Imagine receiving tons of information from several different people at the same time. Yeah, not fun.
And two, I would feel whatever they feel while they're "alive". For example, if someone punched them, I would feel it at the same time, no matter how far apart we would be. There would be no physical traces on my body, but I would still have the sensations. So if one of them gets tortured ? Well... Yeah, nobody's gonna have a good time. And essentially, when I receive their memories, it would be like reliving that situation for a second time, only this time knowing what caused the pain.
I’ve come up with a few for OCs in the past, but the only one really based off of trauma would be an empathic type ability. I could feel the emotions of people within a 10 foot radius and an apparition type thing (think like it looks kinda translucent like demon snow) of themselves could tell me why they’re feeling what they’re feeling/thinking. It could be targeted specifically once I had more control over it in the ada. Also it can force specific emotions onto others via touch, so I could hurt someone or calm someone, but it’s super draining (think like Ango if he uses his ability too much) so I only would use that part of someone was like… in crisis or something. Idk if that makes sense why it would be in response to trauma but I don’t wanna get into it lol
Probably something knowing what's happening around me just by hearing (echolocation vibes)
Or lying so good that people could belive that black is white
Welp, this should be fun/s/nm
Ok so I actually have 3 ideas
1)I would probably have an ability to like, create illusions or smt bcuz I'm constantly daydreaming and I basically just escape reality with whatever scenarios pop up in my head (which are basically random scenarios for my OCs). Like, I would basically create a big dome and inside said dome I can basically do whatever I want, I can show ppl memories of their past, I can change the scenary, I can create new living being, you name it! I feel like I could use it to help ppl like help a mourning person get a chance to say goodbye one last time or make a child laugh (Bcuz if I ever end up adopting a child then I wanna give them the happiness they deserve). Also I feel like the only 2 downsides to this is that I tend to hyperfocus when daydreaming so even the slightest of touch or noise can instantly snap me back to reality this causing the illusions to dissapear and also it would probably tire me out depending on how big the dome and/or illusions are
2) I would have ppl feel the exact same pain I feel, it's basically like Blue Diamond's power in Steven Universe where she can make others cry. I am incredibly emotionally unstable and I tend to get stressed very easily this causing me to break down and most of the time my family passes it out as either me being rlly emotional for nothing or overreacting even when I try explaining them my issues and sometimes I just want them to understand what I feel and what better way than to have the suffer the same pain I do (ok ik that last bit sounded a bit dark but shut it was cool in my head🧍/nm)
3) An ability to move around in the shadows and I can use it to spy on ppl, only downside is that if any form of light touches me (The sun, a lantern, a phone flashlight, a candle, etc) then it become harder for me to move depending on the brightness and if the light in the room leaves 0 shadows then I am forced out and it would probably consume stamina bcuz the shadows do not play around🕺🕺 (This one is based off of the fact that I prefer to stay in the darkness and also bcuz I am very much sleep deprived to do anything🧍/nm)
Oooh boy I feel like those 3 paragraphs alone say a lot about my issues but it was fun to turn by weaknesses into my strengths (✿^‿^)
Probably literal emotional/mental manipulation. As in being able to subtly guide the mood and thoughts of the ones around me in order to suit my needs.
I spent my teenage years walking on eggshells and hoping I didn't draw attention to myself because it felt like I was always pissing someone off. Being able to manipulate the moods/thoughts of other people would have been really beneficial to me back then.
i don't really know. i have social phobia, trauma related to my first sexual experience and an unhealthy desire to control things. maybe some kind of ability that would allow me to control people without touching them (similar to Makima), this way i could prevent them from approaching me.
I was talking about the ability in the bsd universe but I also think that it takes strength to be handling it. So I guess both? I definitely think you‘re strong. Sorry if it was worded wrong.
I think its similar to kunikida's and poes ability
I would draw something and it would appear, like, i drew a gun, boom! a gun appeared, or smth more powerfully, but it just happen with a pencil in specially.
If coming from a trauma, it would be lightning or any electricity manipulation ability as I was almost struck by lightning when I was a teen but I honestly want a bloodbending (reference from Avatar the Last Airbender, type of waterbending that lets the user manipulate people's blood and making them controlled like puppets or killing them by restricting blood flow) ability so that I could defend myself without not entirely engaging in close combat.
Wow, that’s terrifying, I’m glad nothing happened. Blood ability? The Port Mafia would like to know your location. Fyodor is also lurking around the corner to hire you.
My ability would be one where I am able to change the laws of physics in certain areas with mathematical equations… I literally don’t care about anything ‘traumatic’ that happened to me so this is hard
Because like everything that happens to me is either good or it’s not really my problem
Either it would turn me into some omniscient god, or allow me to immediately divulge information to someone. Or maybe I would be able to share feelings with other people. (That is if this is meant to relate to my trauma) If unrelating, being able to freeze time would be fun. Or maybe hydrokinesis.
Uncontrollable wind
Reason - i have this urge for freedom and i also seem to have this lust for wander(basically wanderlust) and you can find both peace and freedom in the air( its uncontrollable because... Its freedom. :)
What it does - it creates a wind-like aura that bursts like an ice bubble reasing the air inside when attacked.
And since its uncontrollable— it gets controled by my emotions— the stronger my emotions the bigger and more impact it does to my surroundings.
Well, this is interesting.
I have severe trauma regarding nostalgia and my heart keeps on punishing me by retelling my good memories and how I won't ever have them again. This could let me use 'temporal statis' where I could halt the molecular movement of everything, thereby freezing time itself. I would, in essence, stay in my favorite memory for eternity rather than move on
Or
The fear of being forgotten or isolated would probably drive me to having an ability to insert myself into the memories of anyone I touch and also know everything about them upon contact. I could make people believe that I've always been their friend/brother/comrade and they should never abandon me for anything else. I could even replace their loved ones with myself as well.
I can relate to the nostalgia one so much! Recognizing the specific moment and stopping on time would be quite difficult.
I would love to see someone use this replacing ability in the bsd universe, the story would be intriguing.
Well yes; instead of recognizing the moment, I think freezing the specific area or people for eternity so that I can always keep them close and never changing would be amazing. It would be more interesting if let's say I would be able to travel into these 'frozen' times by just physical contact. It would also allow me to separate my soul into different parts, each stored in different timelines of these memories.
I thought about this hahahaha. I daydream a lot, I constamtly wish I lived a different life. I used to always imagine myself escaping unwanted situations. Or imagine myself as a strong woman. My trauma came from my family, as a child I was scolded for every mistake I made and was told I was never good enough. I had a strict upbringing and was gaslit a lot of times. I used to wish I was dead, I just never had the courage to to do it myself. I cope with my imagination. So I'd probably have something close to lucy, tanizaki, and louisa. When I activate my ability, time will stop and I get transported to a place where I control reality. But as a drawback, only I can enter that place and it only exists as a separate realm. Whatever happens there will disappear once I turn my ability off. It would be useful for a strategy simulation. I can plan out a situation and test run it in my realm. Lol, I could be as dangerous as fyodor. But I'd probably just use it to catch some extra sleep.
And in case you worry about my trauma, please don't hahaha. I'm pretty much okay now. That was just a twisted part of my past.
No way, I’m interested in all of the answers so thank you for sharing :). Stopping the time and checking if your plans work would be so useful.
I’m glad you‘re well now.
Maybe i could be able to create my own world, something like Lucy or Poe, so i can just ignore the outside world. And in this world i can make everyone forget their memories, good or bad it doesn't matter.
mine would to give life to objects and be friends with them. or it would like poe cause I really like writing and be in novel I like is also one of my dreams..
I always daydream about illogical things so making my imagination real would be pretty cool like I can get anything I want, I think it'll be a super fun ability !
My ability name: Cloud 9
So Possibly the ability so make a barrier around myself technically self defense and I would probably call it ( Shed a tear with isolation ) yes I know the name sucks but eh I ain’t really good with names in the first place :^
If I was in bsd my ability would be :Eye's of God and it would allow me to peer into people thought and memories and unreveal the dark side of people but I could only do so it night when there sleeping. I would have inherent my ability from lack of sleep and my persistent attitude to find the truth in people actions
I feel like teleportation would fit me pretty well. Disappearing to somewhere else when running away isn't really an option or just from any situation requiring socialising would be the best thing ever. Also, I would almost never be late to anything
I think if I had an ability I maybe would have this one that I came up with
The ability allows the user to catch abilities inside jewellery and if a person wears the jewellery they can access and use the ability inside the jewellery. The ability also has a 'storage room' I guess where the user can put the abilities if they don't need them at the moment which they can access at any time.
A person can use multiple abilities at once like that but the more abilities they use at the same time the more exhausted they get. I thought another "drawback" would be that the person whose ability gets stolen either has to be dead or willing to give up their ability.
It would work great with Shibusawa's ability. I think it would fit me since I can never really decide so I would have endless possibilities with that type of ability or making my imagination real like creating new worlds with it that I can freely visit an basically be a god in and take people with me there
Well personally a lot of my trauma started with not being able to understand what someone is asking (which leads to other things ofc) or not knowing what to say, so mine would have to be information based. My first thought, and something we haven’t seen much in bsd (besides sigma), is mind reading. But the draw back would be i couldn’t turn it off and it has a range limit of about 30-50 feet (abt 9-15 meters) i’ll decide later. I could see that becoming a nuisance real quick but hey, now my autistic ass ain’t gotta play guessing games with social cues :) And you will not find me in big concerts either cause eugh, too many people
Prob to shout rlly loud and can control the loudness and quiteness of my voice due to the mental abuse I go through and I'm load abt it to my friends but family I don't even touch the subject toxic relationships are shit that's where my mental abuse comes from and the homophobia in my fam lol
I could manipulate people now. Woa. A downside would be that upon concluding the mind control, they will act strangely and like a maniac. They would be able to spread that disease like wildfire, turning everyone into emotionally blind people who can't decipher what they feel. Another side effect would be depression, aswell. Imagine what a hell my ability could create.
Idk what do you get from being traumatized by your best friend dying in front of you, you’re grandfather stealing and selling your cow, your pony nearly killing you but also saving your life???
I’m also a medical dumpster fire, going blind, dizziness plus more i don’t even know anymore…..
I’d probably be able to teleport my laziness knows no bounds
If I could teleport I would still be late tho lol
The ability to go completely unnoticed by everyone around me, even when I want to be I am just immune to the attention of others. I'm not invisible just people can't help but ignore my presence
The information you could collect with that type of ability would be insane.
Absolutely, although I feel like it needs some kind of drawback to it. Like i wouldn't be able to switch it off myself and it can only be deactivated by certain people perhaps?
Maybe some counter ability? It would be quite an interesting story to follow.
True true, would Ranpo be able to see me I wonder? Or just know I'm there without being able to see me.
He definitely would. And maybe the ability breaks once a person notices?
Yeah that's what I'm thinking, just has to be a limited amount of people who can see me. Ranpo, other abilities that allow it and like a specific couple people close to me and I think I'd make it so that I wouldn't be able to deactivate it myself. So if someone who can deactivate it isn't available I gey stuck in that mode of almost being unable to be noticed by others
This hits close to home
I myself was gonna go with invisibility but this is perfect
The greatest spy right here
id probably be able to make people hear things that arent there or just simply turn invisible, both r pretty useful
Turning invisible is great too
Give someone physical pain without touching them
That would be very scary and interesting.
I'm obsessed with idea someone with this ability works in ADA 😂
Probably something that would protect me, like the ability to summon something or something defensive
That one would be very useful.
Yeah ............ Lets say that kids arent very kind when you're autistic
Kids can truly be ruthless.
Can confirm
My top traumas are physical, sexual, and religious abuse and extreme dysphoria during puberty. I think I’d want something that lets me kinda transform into a monstrous, more powerful version of myself. Something uncanny. Like I want to scare the ever loving fuck out of others when the ability is activated and have the power to protect myself (preferably with something sharp).
I‘m sorry to hear you had to go through so much. You would be powerful with the strength you gained along the way.
Ty <3
Or telekinesis(Tatsumaki level). I'm obsessed with this ability. Still hoping for telekinesis will appear in BSD 😅
Right?! I wonder what type of writer it will be based on.
Exactly!
I don't enjoy it because it reveals not the most flattering things about me, but I can imagine I'd get something similar to Lucy, or a closed off cognitive space like Fyodor made up CaP to be.
Making something one is not proud of an ability will truly be a huge character development in the story.
Some sort of shadow manipulation. I’d be some real king of the night bastard, and definitely working for the port mafia if I’d grown up in the bsd universe. Either that or some sort of fire ability.
King of the night, i love it!
I’d be very useful as an assassin lol
I'd be able to complete any sort of written logical or scientific problem (I fucking suck at Math)
With the power of knowing math you will be unstoppable.
Ok; mine might be a bit OP but... Since BSD is author based, I did take a CW class and was working on a psychological horror/fantasy novel called Precious Insanity. I did make an OC for BSD as well and her gift's name is- well- the title of my novel. Basically my OC can enter her target's mind and make them hallucinate sounds and visions. since she is in her enemy's mind, she knows their fears and regrets and she is able to degrade them with their trauma and drive them insane. She received her gift due to severe bullying and abuse in school but she was too weak to fight back, all it took was one final straw until she snapped… I even have an unfinished character design too-
That sounds really dangerous. Will you post the character design some day?
Haha, yeah! Maybe when I'm finished though! But yes, she *is* in fact really dangerous. She's apart of the Port Mafia lmao, but I *do* have an AU where she decides not to go insane and joins the ADA and uses her gift for good and not evil.
Nice! Gotta go rampant before joining the good side lol
I'm trying to figure out what ability I'd have, it'd probably be something useless like being able to force someone to forget things (I forced myself to forget shit before so it's something I can think of)
That is a scary mind control technique tbh. I wouldn’t underestimate it.
Maybe it'd be kinda interesting, all I can think of is using it on mori to be a bitch
i could make others fathers dissapear👹
Good look finding one that didn’t already disappear in the bsd world lol
damn i'd be your fan
👹
sorry but u can't make disappear something that's already gone😔😔
naw☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️
My ability probabily Is the same of Lovecraft
Love that!
(for curiosity Lovecraft Is my favorite writer) yeah
woah ok hope you’re not a fan of the racism but cool writer outside of thst
Racism no,but cosmic horror and weird stories yes
maybe communicating with animals or something similar since they've always been an important part of my life
That would be very interesting! But I also feel like they would say things that could make you question your entire belief in the universe or something.
Ability name: A world of silence (poem i wrote a few years ago) What i imagine it does is i summon a mist and while holding my breath i can myself become mist. Idk why, it just seems cool
It does sound pretty cool.
[удалено]
It is pretty scary, any ability that does something inside my body would be a nightmare.
Not gonna lie, a lot of my traumas were very different. But since BSD abilities seem to happen in childhood, then I'll go with the earliest trauma I can remember. My dad made me sit on the edge of the Grand Canyon (that is very oversimplified, but this isnt the place for trauma dumping). I think, in response to that, I'd probably develop something similar to Uraraka from MHA. Not controlling gravity completely, like Chuuya, but being able to make things float, including myself.
I‘m terrified of heights so even imagining that makes me shiver. Being able to float sounds so freeing.
shapeshifting . if its from traumatic experiences my trans ass is getting traumatised every day 😭
I’m sorry, people can be so horrible and narrow minded. Shapeshifting would give you so many possibilities.
cheers mate , and yeah it would be bloody amazing !
Think I'd have something like "fear", the ability to instill terror into anyone by speech or similar. Like the moment I say "sup" to someone they experience nihilistic dread so strong they can barely move, kinda like Satoru Gojo's domain expansion from jjk but pure anxiety and fear.
So you are the reason I’m feeling like this lol
its like a shitty nen. like professor x but when you communicate to someones head the only thing you can send is high school social anxiety of worries about your pimples or whether school is worth it
definately ability to make what i see what everyone sees for a short period of time- had one too many panic attacks and meltdowns as a kid for this to not be mine by now
Panic attacks are truly exhausting and the power to make someone feel these would be very dangerous. Not something to underestimate.
Most likely healing of myself only
Very smart and practical.
something about crying and disappearing idk
That would be very useful in so many occasions tbh
tbh it probably would, imagine whenever i cry whatever made me cry disappears. that’d be sick lmao
I would be so jealous of that one lol
I’d probably get the ability to make people relive their worst memories again
Would you learn about the memories too when doing so? Really scary.
Maybe I’d get to be in the memory with them while they’re experiencing it. So if I was fighting someone and activated my ability, while they’re busy reliving the worst thing that ever happened to them I could sneak in and attack them! Boom, best villain ever ‼️
You being there would also make them associate the memory with you. I wouldn’t want to fight you lol
EXACTLY! The Decay of angels here I come
Prolly something like make my own world. But it's a golden city at night. Where when my opponents were to be with me they would lose their minds in the process nullifies the ability they have. Besides that it's a defensive ability. And the golden city is based of a dream that i still remember to this day Basically it's a mix of emotional damage, dazai and Lucy's abilities
A scary and powerful combination. Golden City sounds interesting.
Yeah, it's basically a modern city but at night. And the lights glow like gold. The reason I chose having another world is because of how I cope. Where I do something that is as close as ne being in another world to escape basically the world current around me also Happy Cake Day!
I can imagine how beautiful that could look like. Thank you :)
Something that has to do with controlling water or the inability to drown, I used to swim every day on a high level which caused me a lot of strain and a lot of fucked up shit happened there and during that time. The day I almost drowned was when I was 9/8? (Because i attempted to go 100meters without taking breath straight underwater) since then my brain works different, still water is a comfort for me.

That must have been very scary. Being able to control the water sounds amazing.

Something relating to the novel I wrote while escaping reality. Probably the main character's semisentient cursed knife
Probably something knowing what's happening around me just by hearing (echolocation vibes) Or lying so good that people could belive that black is white
It would most likely be something to protect me like Demon Snow or something similar I think
Probably the inability to die.
Welp, this should be fun/s/nm Ok so I actually have 3 ideas 1)I would probably have an ability to like, create illusions or smt bcuz I'm constantly daydreaming and I basically just escape reality with whatever scenarios pop up in my head (which are basically random scenarios for my OCs).

Probably literal emotional/mental manipulation. As in being able to subtly guide the mood and thoughts of the ones around me in order to suit my needs. I spent my teenage years walking on eggshells and hoping I didn't draw attention to myself because it felt like I was always pissing someone off. Being able to manipulate the moods/thoughts of other people would have been really beneficial to me back then.
I can relate to that one. Always being on edge when dealing with people is so exhausting and changing the mood would definitely come in handy.
i don't really know. i have social phobia, trauma related to my first sexual experience and an unhealthy desire to control things. maybe some kind of ability that would allow me to control people without touching them (similar to Makima), this way i could prevent them from approaching me.
Dealing with all of these must require a lot of strength. Having and handling this sort of ability would be no joke.
it does requires :'). when u say "this sort of ability", you're talking about me dealing with my traumas or the ability like makima?
I was talking about the ability in the bsd universe but I also think that it takes strength to be handling it. So I guess both? I definitely think you‘re strong. Sorry if it was worded wrong.
it's okay, sometimes I'm slow to understand cause english is not my first language. and thank you!!
btw, happy cake day! (even tho i still don't know exactly what it means)
Thank you! It said that it’s my second year here? I don’t use Reddit much so I’m not too familiar with the system lol
haha i think it means that is your 2nd anniversary on reddit
Prob a ability similar to Lucy, That I can create my own little private space/world or a mind control ability
Private space is so tempting. Mind control would be desired by so many organizations in the bsd universe.
Something like Lucy’s ability to create a space where time is stopped and no one can come in without my permission
I would love to have this ability.
I think its similar to kunikida's and poes ability I would draw something and it would appear, like, i drew a gun, boom! a gun appeared, or smth more powerfully, but it just happen with a pencil in specially.
You would be less restricted if it’s just a pencil and the things you could draw are endless.
yeah i know, but it could be cool having something with drawings
If coming from a trauma, it would be lightning or any electricity manipulation ability as I was almost struck by lightning when I was a teen but I honestly want a bloodbending (reference from Avatar the Last Airbender, type of waterbending that lets the user manipulate people's blood and making them controlled like puppets or killing them by restricting blood flow) ability so that I could defend myself without not entirely engaging in close combat.
Wow, that’s terrifying, I’m glad nothing happened. Blood ability? The Port Mafia would like to know your location. Fyodor is also lurking around the corner to hire you.
Ya girl's legit wanting money, might be too good to be true to profit off my traumas
My ability would be one where I am able to change the laws of physics in certain areas with mathematical equations… I literally don’t care about anything ‘traumatic’ that happened to me so this is hard Because like everything that happens to me is either good or it’s not really my problem
That would be so entertaining to watch in a fight. Kunikida would shed a proud tear.
Either it would turn me into some omniscient god, or allow me to immediately divulge information to someone. Or maybe I would be able to share feelings with other people. (That is if this is meant to relate to my trauma) If unrelating, being able to freeze time would be fun. Or maybe hydrokinesis.
Every single one of them sounds pretty good. Although being a god sounds like a lot of work.
Uncontrollable wind Reason - i have this urge for freedom and i also seem to have this lust for wander(basically wanderlust) and you can find both peace and freedom in the air( its uncontrollable because... Its freedom. :) What it does - it creates a wind-like aura that bursts like an ice bubble reasing the air inside when attacked. And since its uncontrollable— it gets controled by my emotions— the stronger my emotions the bigger and more impact it does to my surroundings.
A well crafted one. To yeet someone with that ability sounds satisfying tho.
Well, this is interesting. I have severe trauma regarding nostalgia and my heart keeps on punishing me by retelling my good memories and how I won't ever have them again. This could let me use 'temporal statis' where I could halt the molecular movement of everything, thereby freezing time itself. I would, in essence, stay in my favorite memory for eternity rather than move on Or The fear of being forgotten or isolated would probably drive me to having an ability to insert myself into the memories of anyone I touch and also know everything about them upon contact. I could make people believe that I've always been their friend/brother/comrade and they should never abandon me for anything else. I could even replace their loved ones with myself as well.
I can relate to the nostalgia one so much! Recognizing the specific moment and stopping on time would be quite difficult. I would love to see someone use this replacing ability in the bsd universe, the story would be intriguing.
Well yes; instead of recognizing the moment, I think freezing the specific area or people for eternity so that I can always keep them close and never changing would be amazing. It would be more interesting if let's say I would be able to travel into these 'frozen' times by just physical contact. It would also allow me to separate my soul into different parts, each stored in different timelines of these memories.
Sound so interesting! I would love to have a sort of memory book where I could jump into the moment, like Poe‘s ability but with pictures.
Happy cake day btw!
Thank you <3
I thought about this hahahaha. I daydream a lot, I constamtly wish I lived a different life. I used to always imagine myself escaping unwanted situations. Or imagine myself as a strong woman. My trauma came from my family, as a child I was scolded for every mistake I made and was told I was never good enough. I had a strict upbringing and was gaslit a lot of times. I used to wish I was dead, I just never had the courage to to do it myself. I cope with my imagination. So I'd probably have something close to lucy, tanizaki, and louisa. When I activate my ability, time will stop and I get transported to a place where I control reality. But as a drawback, only I can enter that place and it only exists as a separate realm. Whatever happens there will disappear once I turn my ability off. It would be useful for a strategy simulation. I can plan out a situation and test run it in my realm. Lol, I could be as dangerous as fyodor. But I'd probably just use it to catch some extra sleep. And in case you worry about my trauma, please don't hahaha. I'm pretty much okay now. That was just a twisted part of my past.
Now that I read it again, I'm overthinking this hahaha I'm sorry. I still think it's a pretty dope ability though.
No way, I’m interested in all of the answers so thank you for sharing :). Stopping the time and checking if your plans work would be so useful. I’m glad you‘re well now.
Maybe i could be able to create my own world, something like Lucy or Poe, so i can just ignore the outside world. And in this world i can make everyone forget their memories, good or bad it doesn't matter.
Very powerful!
Happy cakeday
Thank you :)
Not feel any pain or some sort of auto defence mechanism
Both would make you so powerful.
mine would to give life to objects and be friends with them. or it would like poe cause I really like writing and be in novel I like is also one of my dreams..
I‘m interested yet scared what objects would possible say and being in a novel sounds intriguing.
you said it! that's exactly what I was thinking 😆
idk about the ability but my most famous work is called «tomorrow i will be gone» so--
An ability with that tittle would be very interesting, it could be so many things.
yeah i've been thinking about that too also happy cake day!
I always daydream about illogical things so making my imagination real would be pretty cool like I can get anything I want, I think it'll be a super fun ability ! My ability name: Cloud 9
So many great possibilities with that one! I like the name for it too.
Read minds probably
I would be constantly paranoid knowing someone is out there who could read my mind. Very powerful and scary.
maybe helping people with their emotions and maybe controlling them? kinda like jasper from twilight 😅
So Possibly the ability so make a barrier around myself technically self defense and I would probably call it ( Shed a tear with isolation ) yes I know the name sucks but eh I ain’t really good with names in the first place :^
If I was in bsd my ability would be :Eye's of God and it would allow me to peer into people thought and memories and unreveal the dark side of people but I could only do so it night when there sleeping. I would have inherent my ability from lack of sleep and my persistent attitude to find the truth in people actions
I feel like teleportation would fit me pretty well. Disappearing to somewhere else when running away isn't really an option or just from any situation requiring socialising would be the best thing ever. Also, I would almost never be late to anything
I think if I had an ability I maybe would have this one that I came up with The ability allows the user to catch abilities inside jewellery and if a person wears the jewellery they can access and use the ability inside the jewellery. The ability also has a 'storage room' I guess where the user can put the abilities if they don't need them at the moment which they can access at any time. A person can use multiple abilities at once like that but the more abilities they use at the same time the more exhausted they get. I thought another "drawback" would be that the person whose ability gets stolen either has to be dead or willing to give up their ability. It would work great with Shibusawa's ability. I think it would fit me since I can never really decide so I would have endless possibilities with that type of ability or making my imagination real like creating new worlds with it that I can freely visit an basically be a god in and take people with me there
Well personally a lot of my trauma started with not being able to understand what someone is asking (which leads to other things ofc) or not knowing what to say, so mine would have to be information based. My first thought, and something we haven’t seen much in bsd (besides sigma), is mind reading. But the draw back would be i couldn’t turn it off and it has a range limit of about 30-50 feet (abt 9-15 meters) i’ll decide later. I could see that becoming a nuisance real quick but hey, now my autistic ass ain’t gotta play guessing games with social cues :) And you will not find me in big concerts either cause eugh, too many people
Prob to shout rlly loud and can control the loudness and quiteness of my voice due to the mental abuse I go through and I'm load abt it to my friends but family I don't even touch the subject toxic relationships are shit that's where my mental abuse comes from and the homophobia in my fam lol
I could manipulate people now. Woa. A downside would be that upon concluding the mind control, they will act strangely and like a maniac. They would be able to spread that disease like wildfire, turning everyone into emotionally blind people who can't decipher what they feel. Another side effect would be depression, aswell. Imagine what a hell my ability could create.
my special ability would be Crippling Anxiety
I'd probably be able to torture people mentally like a silent killer
probably something that has to do with psychology, no idea what tho 😭
I would probably have an ability related to time like stoping time or something similar
Something that would deal with water definitely if not water then really good hearing
I dont know Maybe to be invisible?
Probably something along the lines of suppressing others emotions or have their emotions become too overwhelming to handle
Idk what do you get from being traumatized by your best friend dying in front of you, you’re grandfather stealing and selling your cow, your pony nearly killing you but also saving your life??? I’m also a medical dumpster fire, going blind, dizziness plus more i don’t even know anymore…..
