[Erik cares little for the voting process or who was chosen to lead. What he does care about is how that decision will effect him. The environment. The natives, people who he feels an odd and detached sort of likeness to. He understands all too well what it’s like to be crowded into a small space and forced to live in fear for being ‘different’.]

Congratulations to our new leader.
I’m sure he’ll treat everyone fairly and equally.

I understand the need to feel separate from this world but there can’t be an us and them, the natives. It’s us and them, the monsters who feed on sound.

Many of us have abilities. Powers that are useful. There are natives that do as well. If we band together, we can keep ourselves safe. All of us.

[He wants to make his motives clear. He wants to survive. To get back home where he has unfinished business.]

I’m compiling all the information gathered here and there will be three different sections. Public, private, and what you can help with rather than abilities.

Do not respond to this post if you do not have anything useful to add. If you do not want to take the risk of others in the community knowing your skills, don't add them or make them private.

[ooc: Please comment Here. This post has been edited to make more sense. The mods have given me permission to make it so that when the final post is ready and I put it up, characters can only access it if they've asked for and been given permission; even the public part of the post.]

what kind of abilities??

that simple, huh?

What do you mean by abilities?

[She certainly understood her skills all too well. It would not hurt to clarify that she was skilled and trained as a soldier despite her age, but it did feel like the sort of thing that needed clarity.]

I've got a list but if it's easier you can just put down - sword fighting, magic (elemental, healing, misc), some medical knowledge, and summoning creatures.

This seems like it could be pretty dangerous.

I've got a few abilities myself ranging from telepathy and telekinesis, and wielding of magic to a few more mundane aspects, like mechanical engineering and, if needed, forensic psychology. I'm also very open to learning new skills.

I guess that first one might cause some concern, though.

I agree that we should be focused as a community on utilizing the talents of everyone here. At any time, day or night, I am very much available.

Don't you know about Kilgrave? You're practically making it easy for him to find victims.

I have abilities, but I'd rather not post them for anyone to see... I do want to help though.

[Mainly because they were very disturbing abilities, probably better not to tell everyone about them. Also it would ruin any element of surprise she had.]

[Seeing as Kilgrave already knows about her powers, there seems little reason not to share them. What the hell, right?]

I'm a Vampire Slayer. Super strength, fast, can sense demons, get prophecy dreams sometimes but those are mostly useless.

I'm capable of creating barriers that can be used to prevent entrance to rooms, buildings, and the like. Technically it's for vampires, back home, but I feel there's potential in it working in other ways. On a similar note, I can place charms on such things as manacles that can dampen the use of super strength.

That aside, I'm good with most armed and unarmed methods of fighting, possess more strength and speed compared to the average human, and heightened senses. I'm also able to teach self defense to others, should that be wanted.

some people are hunted because they have abilities. i don't think we should register anyone at all

how do we even know YOU don't want to take advantage of people with abilities?

(Eddie is waaay too close to someone who was threatened and hunted and lost people for this very thing. It rubs him the wrong way.)

They do say great minds thing alike. Count me in. Mechanical engineering is where I'm best at, but chemistry, biochemistry and hell, even some forensics and botony if I need to, aren't off the table. Just don't expect anything greater than miracles.

[So humble. But, okay, serious talk:]

Much as this might just sound like me stroking my own ego: I agree. This isn't the time to be isolating any part of our community. If we're going to overcome this it's going to be together. Prejudice will only make us the losers to whatever goal the Sound Eaters are after. I'd like to not end up in the Worst Case Scenario. It's called the Worst Case Scenario for a reason.

[gimmesometassel]

I can fly! Does that help?

I can be really quiet and stuff too and I don't need to do things that humans do. I don't know if that counts though?

[Does being a rug count as a superpower in and of itself? The world may never know.]

[saltysanta]

I can still heal and use ice magic. And if you need supplies of any sort, you can probably come to me for that too.

Bit easier than relying on word of mouth every time you need help, isn't it?

[His other abilities, like the timey wimey bullshit required to visit basically every household in Europe in a single night..... not so much.]

_{[Jake gives this some thought and ultimately decides--]}

Working together is a good idea. I want to find a way out of this, too.

I'll help. It's okay to call if you ever need someone who can do what I can do, but I'd like it if you kept it to yourself for now.
