answer:

(RED-40 / Eddie - ze/zim/zir)
For last week's QOTW, two of Eddie's wishes actually were for the ability to do things such as shapeshift and control time, and maybe one of those could have been Eddie's superpower... but I think zir superpower could be something more tame but still vaguely chameleon in nature like omnilingualism: "the ability to fluently speak, understand, read, and communicate in all languages, whether human, animal, alien, or even fictional." It would be a little harder for Eddie to directly wreak havoc based off that alone, but Eddie enjoys the ability to instantly connect with new lifeforms, and the rather unassuming nature of the power makes it all the more satisfying to see others' reactions when Eddie rambles at them in tongues! I'd imagine Eddie to do this a little bit anyway, but the little chatterbox having it SUPERPOWERED!!! and instantaneous would go crazy.

Eddie would probably be a bit of an anti-hero. Ze isn't as selfless as a typical hero should be and gravitates towards causing mischief over doing good all the time, but generally Eddie means well in the grand scheme of things.
Also based off last week's QOTW, Eddie's arch-nemesis would still be the ever elusive Red Dot. Maybe there's someone in particular who's controlling it and trying to make a fool of our dear Eddie, but ze is just trying to catch the stupid thing!!! WHY IS EDDIE IN SPACE WHERE THEY LIKE TO USE MANY LASER ?

Hazard | ID #023
+


Liminal | ID #553

Hazard is definitely a superhero with their epic superpower, contrary to popular belief based on their appearance. Never judge a book by its cover, they all say!

Hazard's superpower has nothing to do with their appearance either. Control over sleep and all that entails is their superpower. During the average work day, Hazard just uses their power to help funnel hours of sleep into another sluggums body, making them feel energized, or taking away hours of sleep for a hypersomniac slug.

During the time they fight crime in the depths of the ocean, however? That's when Hazard puts their enemies to sleep with one touch. It doesn't even have to be contact with their main body- manes or tail hair also count.

Now, Liminal is definitely not an arch-nemesis, but they do have their disputes about how to properly solve a serious situation effectively. Since Liminal has the power of summoning objects, like lassos, he believes his way of doing things is most effective.

These two are definitely alike deep down, though they refuse to admit this. [177 Words]

answer:

Casa's power would be the ability to grow plants really quick! Although that wouldn't really be useful for superpowered battles, xe would be fine with that - as xe would prefer to avoid conflict like that! Instead, xe would do work helping community gardens get a head start, or help reforestation efforts get some trees grown up! Xe needs to learn not to over-use xer powers and get tuckered out, though...

answer:

Libi already has a type of superpower. As an alien, he has the ability of x-ray vision. This allows him to see the bone structure and anatomy of sea creatures. Generally, Libi uses this power for good or for their curiosity and knowledge. Through x-ray vision, he can help with the needs of a sea creature if they are injured. With this power, Libi would likely not have any arch-nemesis; they would just generally help others and are dense to any dislike feelings from others. (85 words)

Maple just got her nails done... to carve a jack o lantern! She uses her claws to carve the most intricate designs. A pumpkin carving contest is coming up, and she's determined to win.
She's kind of obsessed with fall, it's her favorite season despite the cooler weather! Maple finds that she's the most creative during the months that she stays indoors next to the warm fireplace.

Analysis notes — Session 1:
<Start of log>

Specimen S-ID-341 shows extreme resistance towards interactions with those in white coats, going so far as to use a sort of ‘teleportation magic’ to hurdle objects from the toy bin towards them. Only exception seems to be medical professionals, who all wear teal scrubs to signify their clearance. Specimen S-ID-341 —who, from what I could make out in their odd language, is named ‘Mordax’— shows a bit of trust around them and even allowed them to collect a mucus sample from its skin, which will undergoing tests as soon as schedule allows.

While brief, this first meeting went rather well despite the hostility. The recording gotten of this ‘Mordax’ has been sent to isolate the speech as well as analyze it’s behavior for overlap in behavior from previous interactions with S-ID-284 ‘Soleil Salvitr’ and S-ID-566 ‘Stew’. Hopefully, now with 3 of these sluggum creatures, we’ll be able to decipher their language and understand them better.

ID #449 / wisteria

wisteria is a little bit sly and cunning, and a bit of a prankster. she giggles a lot when she lies, which is the quickest and easiest indicator when you ask her where the slice of cake you were saving for yourself went... it also doesn't help that she has a sweet tooth, and goes almost feral when taken to the bake shop. she also has a fascinating rock collection, that you can only look at, don't touch !! it is an array of crystals, rocks, and geodes, mostly shiny ones that she spends a lot of time hunting for (her favorites being jade and amethyst, of course).

answer:
Honestly, I’ve not really thought too hard about it yet! I do know Raine is quite shy and introverted who enjoys a little drizzle and nature in all forms. They tend to be easily startled and enjoys things at a distance. She also loves gardening and watching small forms of sea life in particular! Raine adores all cute things and books.
