Mestiv Posted May 11, 2015 Report Share Posted May 11, 2015 Well, I have a very interesting talent of fixing electronic things. You all mention how you can break computers by just touching them... I can sometimes fix them by just standing near. Can't really count how many times someone wanted me to help them with their computer, so I want them to show me what's wrong and... there is nothing wrong. Same thing with TV's and smartphones. Generally, the more complicated device, the stronger the talent. I guess I would have trouble with fixing a washing machine, they are too simple 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allomancy Posted May 26, 2015 Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 I'd want the talent to drop things. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Honor Spren Posted May 28, 2015 Report Share Posted May 28, 2015 even though I am a good singer in real life, I think my talent would be to sing incredibly off key. I would be able to make people go deaf and bleak glass, and stuff like that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crystin Radiant Posted May 31, 2015 Report Share Posted May 31, 2015 Daydreaming. My mind is always somewhere else. I figure I could either use this to transport myself places, create alternate realities, and maybe transport others to these realities. And/or agreeing to taking tests in school that I really should not be taking. I used to have a more basic version of the breaking talent. Anything made of glass would break at my touch. Jars, windows, lights... But that's gone now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allomancy Posted June 10, 2015 Report Share Posted June 10, 2015 I'm changing mine. Terrible drawing. When I draw, it ends up TOTALLY different, and becoming real. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Art-Zealot Posted June 12, 2015 Report Share Posted June 12, 2015 I've thought about this one for a while, and I think I've finally figured it out: My Talent is that I freak out when I see a bug. There doesn't have to actually be a bug there, I just have an automatic knee-jerk reaction to my brain thinking there's a bug (which actually happens...). The Talent, then, proactively teleports me to a minimum safe distance away from said bug. ...which would be bad if I was in a car. Or on a plane. Still, if there was a huge chasm that I couldn't cross, I could trick my Talent into warping me across if I thought I saw a bug on the ground next to me. ;] 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Joe in the Bush Posted June 18, 2015 Report Share Posted June 18, 2015 My brother has decided his talent is zoning out completely, vanishing from existence until someone says his name. It seems accurate to him. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iarwainiel I Posted July 2, 2015 Report Share Posted July 2, 2015 (edited) Since breaking my finger last month, I now have proof that my Smedry Talent is swelling. In fact, most of my family is quite good at edema. I just searched this thread & am pleased that my Talent appears to be quite unique ... that should increase its value, right?

Aon tEhe Posted November 18, 2015 Report Share Posted November 18, 2015 I would be able to grow huge, random, temporary deformities. Imagine punching somebody with a tentacle sprouting from your ear or tripping your friend with your pinky. That would be fun. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bort Posted November 18, 2015 Report Share Posted November 18, 2015 My talent is bimbling. Bimbling is the ability to constantly be late through being distracted by talking to random people about random stuff. It also extends to making other people late by doing the same thing to them. As a slight extension to bimbling, I am also very forgetful (this counts as bimbling because it is always the important stuff that is forgotten, until about two minutes too late). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Citadel16 Posted November 18, 2015 Report Share Posted November 18, 2015 my talent would be to enter into a time warp every time I pick up a book. then setting down the book and realizing it's 4:30 am and I have school the next day. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormgate Posted November 19, 2015 Report Share Posted November 19, 2015 The talent to get lost in a crowd. If there there are ten or more people in a 20-foot radius of me, I cannot be found until the number of people drops to one. Is, of course, subject to change. It would be very useful in chase scenes. Simply run into a group of people, and I can't be found. Even if they are all Librarians looking for me. If I'm surrounded, it works even better. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChickenPlague Posted December 27, 2015 Report Share Posted December 27, 2015 Skipping things. For example once I had two more classes and I just skipped them. I only realized this when my mom called to ask me about it. It would probably be somewhat similar to grandpa Smerdy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormgate Posted December 27, 2015 Report Share Posted December 27, 2015 So you could skip an assassination? Skip a trip to somewhere and just get there anyway? Skip the wait for the guy who gets lost to be found again? This could be interesting... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChickenPlague Posted December 29, 2015 Report Share Posted December 29, 2015 It would work by me simply disappearing and appearing later in the same place. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lookingglass Posted December 31, 2015 Report Share Posted December 31, 2015 My talent is not recognizing anyone. It could be forgetting their name and calling them something entirely different or just not remembering their face. I'm not entirely sure how that would be useful though. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
