Re: [ORE] Re: [Progenitor] Brainstorm some powers for small children?

I like the other suggestions, but I wanna make some anyway.

For the 2-year-old, intangibility or teleportation might also be appropriate for the desire to explore absolutely everything.

For the 4-year-old, you have a character that was the baby, but then had it ripped away from him twice. HyperCharm/HyperCommand for a sort of "look at me!" approach.

For the 5-year-old, I know you said she was sensible, but how many girls that age don't want to be a princess? A combination of emotional control that can only be used on men (Prince Charmings) and the ability to make everything around her prettier and more cartoon-like and you have an annoying power-set that gets even worse as she gets older. The ability to control animals, Snow White style, can be added for taste.

So, I just started running Progenitor...  Every early days of the contagion, the PCs are a group of protesters who catch the super from Johnson at a speech they're protesting. One of the player characters ends up being a mind controller, and has a baby-sitting gig - where she inadvertantly uses her powers to keep the four little brats calm.

Of course, I roll it out, and she infects all four of them with the super.

Any suggestions on powers for a bunch of Tier 4 toddlers?  We've got a baby girl, a two year old boy (which is a terror for trying to climb stuff and get into things, etc), a four year old boy, and a more sensible five year old girl. I suspect if they don't *kill* her inadvertently, between the four of them they'll also probably pretty quickly infect their mom, a young woman whose husband is an Army Lieutenant currently overseas.

I suspect having a whole family with four tier 4 kids and a tier 5 mom will have a pretty big impact on things early on...but I need powers for the kids. ;)

(I'm thinking, for the mom, who has been portrayed as very harried and desperate for relief from the stresses of looking after four young children by herself, I'll give her some kind of self-duplicating power, possibly with a "Power of No" style power where if she shouts NO loudly enough she can stop, well, anything, if she's got the points for it)
