Here is the list of skills that you can train with. If you want to know more about skills go to the, "What Exactly is a Skill?" thread. If you have any ideas for skills or questions about the skills in this list ask away. ~
•Alchemy- if you don't know what alchemy is you should look it up, but to summarize it, alchemy is taking something, let's say a rock, and turning it into something else, that means changing its shape, texture, or even turning it into a new thing, like from stone to glass, you cannot raise people from the dead or anything like that, though you can heal people in some ways
○Alchemy needs equivalent exchange, you can't turn a leaf into a rock, but you can turn a leaf into some sort of paper, so it is like cooking, you need certain ingredients to make up another thing, with alchemy you can also shape objects into different things, like from a rock into a stone chair
•Friction- this skill allows you to take one step forward and end up sliding on forever, or walk up a wall, this can be done my increasing the amount of friction or decreasing it in yourself, others, or objects, it can be quite useful if you want to hold someone down, or if you're really cruel, send them flying off a cliff
•Gravity- this skill allows you to shift gravity in a certain area, the better you get at this skill the more the range of how far your gravity skill can work will increase, so basically you could walk underwater or float into the sky, it's also useful to make your enemies completely helpless as they squirm on the ground or gasp for breath as you send them too far into the sky where there is little oxygen
○You cannot fly with this unless you kick your legs around to move slowly, or you use your gift as a boost
•Mind Read- this is an obvious skill that let's you read other's minds, creepy for others to know you can do this but good for you in more ways than one, your ears will be able to hear everything they think
○This isn't full-proof, a strong will can resist this skill
•Time travel- this skill let's you freeze time for objects, you can send objects back in time and into the future but it would take a lot of practice to send them far into the future or past, it's almost impossible to send the whole area around you into a different time but it is possible to temporarily freeze it with a lot of mental concentration, it is also harder to do this with large objects so it take practice
○When I say send back and forward in time, I mean like this: there's a block of ice, you send it back it to the future, it melts, you send the water to the past, it turns back into ice
•Invisible- invisibility is quite a hard skill to master for you have to make your entire body completely disappear, can you even imagine walking around without seeing the end of your own snout?
•Camouflage- this skill gives you the ability to blend in with your surroundings completely like a chameleon, you can turn yourself into a swaying tree or a sitting rock by just changing your color, and with practice you can change your texture and with tons of practice you can slightly change your shape to make things more believable
•Shape shifting- everyone knows what shape shifting is, I shouldn't even have to explain, but in this world it takes much practice to shape shift and you can only shape shift for so long
•Illusion- this skill allows you to make copies of yourself and to create scary or wonderful illusions, the more you practice the more illusions you can make and the more believable they become
•Copycat- this skill allows you to temporarily copy other's gifts or skills, you can only copy one thing at a time and when you do copy it, the skill or gift is only of average power, after the effects of copycat wear off you have to copy something else or copy the same thing again
•Glutton- this skill allows you to eat or drink absolutely anything and still get nutrients from it, you'll never go hungry, eating metal takes a lot of work though
•Hard shell- this skill makes your hide as tough as nails, walking into a fire pit has no affect on you, this takes lot's of endurance and training, this skill is almost impossible to use in battle for long periods of time since you need mental focus and silence most of the time, being attacked breaks your concentration
•Sticky- this skill allows you to stick to anything like freaken Spiderman, you can also stick things together, this is an unusual skill and isn't hard to master
•Sharp eyes- this skill increases your sight and makes you able to see through walls with a lot of concentration, with lot's of practice you can also see tracks that are very feint and hard to see, your range of sight also increases
•Mimic- this skill basically allows you to copy the voices of others exactly, you can even copy the noise of something like glass breaking, you become a living recorder
•Elastic- for this skill, your limbs become stretchy, you could reach out with your foreleg all the way to the top of a tree or you could flatten out your body into a blanket, whatever the stretchy allows
•Sizer- this skill allows you to change your size from the size of an ant to the size of a skyscraper, of course it takes a lot of practice since you have to understand how to shrink every part of your body in unison
•Numb- you can train yourself to not feel pain, though you can still get injured just like any other person, this skill is a two-edged sword in that it let's you fight better but you could end up getting seriously injured without realizing it, this also needs a lot of energy to use, so it can't be used for long
The Special Skills
THIS SKILL RIGHT HERE is no longer able to be learned. It was deemed too dangerous after the war and no one knows about it anymore.
•Pure Gift- this skill is EXTREMELY hard to learn, but what it does for you may be worth it if you are up to it; this skill increases your power and you become pretty awesome, your gift turns white when you use it, but in all honestly, you have to go through a lot of blood, sweat, and tears to even master this skill (see the Skill Guide for more info)
