Useless Superheroes

I'm going to wait for 1 or 2 more people before I start. I'm super happy that people are showing interest though!

Useless Superheroes

Dear Sir/Miss/Whatever you are,
Let's face it, you are probably the biggest waste of super powers anyone has ever seen. That's right, you're powers are pretty useless but fortunately for you, they make you an outcast among all the lucky normal people. You can't fight crime or help any real superheroes because like we all already know your powers have no real practical use and that is where we come in.
Sincerely, The USO (Useless Superhero Organization)

Backround: Founded by a man whose power was to throw up precious metals, the USO functions as a home for super heroes who have been deemed 'useless' by other heroes and the world in general. Thanks to the founder's painful yet lucrative efforts the USO is located on its own private island, complete with anything one could ask for. The USO also collects missions that can hopefully engage some of the supers on the island.
Other: Each hero is given a sort of weekly allowance based on how useless their powers are, naturally people whose powers are more useless are seen as the 'cool kids'. The inhabitants are allowed to leave but are encouraged not to because the world can be quite harsh on them.

Tell me what you guys think, I hope this does manage to get support.

Don't ask, never ask. Assume the worst so that when it happens you can shrug because you expected nothing less. If something not as bad as you were originally expecting happens then you don't have to feel crushed.

"Honey, I'm so sorry. Did nobody tell you? We're moving at the speed of thought." Kami smiles, as small spiders explode from her black dress, covering you. "All that has happened up until now was less than a second on the outside. You could hold out for days, and it would be less than an hour in real time" Kami punches you as you're distracted by the excruciating pain of hundreds of spider bites, throwing you backwards. "I've already won, my dear."

Elysia's grin only became wilder and wider, "Alright, alright. You got me... Well this version of me." Doors began to appear along the walls, "Speed of thoughts? That is an amusing concept but I don't think you realize just how much real time I've spent in here. I know exactly how much 'time' has passed relative to the out side. However the more important subject is your situation. Each room has a copy of my self in it, however they do not all look the same and neither do the rooms. Think of it as a fluid maze, shouldn't be to hard for you. Teleport around as much as you like, doesn't bother me much. If you're hoping to find any differences in the copies of my soul, you won't. Happy hunting!" There was a small giggle and then complete silence, the copy Kami had been fighting had been reduced to a pile of dust that was absorbed by the room, leaving no trace.

Kami seems to disappear, appearing behind you. "You must learn the rules of the game. Space is arbitrary in this place, as is time. We are moving at the speed of thought." With this, Kami moves forward, her hand becoming a massive talong with which she slices at you, opening a cut on your shoulder. "I'm defeating you this way because I am superior. You are a fool who knows nothing of how to save a world. In this story, I am the hero who will bring peace to the world, and you are the villain who opposes me." Kami grins, as four spider legs burst from her back, which she also uses to attack.

Elysia growled slightly as she moved away from Kami, of course there was no sound but it was hard to subconsciously accept her inability to speak. She wanted to say so many different things to Kami but she could not find the words or the concentration to project her voice across the mindspace, she seemed delusional. Although Kami's attacks hurt, Elysia smiled as she dodged and was unfortunately hit several times. "If there is one thing that I excel in it is endurance, we could be doing this for quite some time."

I'm practically jumping in my chair, I knew it!!!!

Super Heroes/Villians

OMG!!!!!! I just realized who Kami reminds me of!!!!!!! They are sooooo similar, I don know why I didn't see it before!!!! A certain staff wielding, trickster..... The more I think about it the more I'm sure of it!! I see so much of him in Kami!!!!
Kami reminds me of....................wait for it...................LOKI!!!!!!!!!!!
Please tell me someone else sees this, I'm not crazy, am I?

Super Heroes/Villians

As much as it pains me to say it, it's true, no matter what we do it seems like we are playing right into your hands.

((Makes enough sense))
Elysia regained her footing, this was quite odd to her, while the other souls who had previously share this space had fought they hadn't really been able to physically harm each other or maybe they had, being in this place was previously like a dream, some things were real while others were not and it was hard to tell which was which. She encased Kami in a box of her own energy, she wasn't particularly sure what to do. "You have to appreciate how close to making a human soul they were but I doubt they would have ever completed me, part of the reason why it is hard to break me. You would think it would be easier to break something that isn't whole. What I find puzzling is why you want to break me so much, I've always assumed it was about winning or something like that, am I wrong?" Elysia was feeling quite determined, she was not about to let her self become some petty conquest.
