All characters are able to select from a range of special abilities for their characters to possess, either from birth, or from a plot element which introduces it. Oftentimes, your character will not be perfect at the abilities straight away, as they make take years to develop these abilities, so please be sure to use discretion in your role playing to avoid becoming a Mary Sue. Also, be sure to take into account that most abilities come with weaknesses as well (for example, Parseltongue scares people and can isolate the person using it).

The following is a list of the available special abilities. Feel free to suggest more to add to it:

In order to acquire a special ability for one of your characters, you must:

- Follow the rules and set a good example.
- Be active, and remain active. Inactive characters will lose their abilities. There is no hard post requirement, but a proven record of consistent activity will be required. We will not grant special abilities to new members.
- Use the power with discretion. This is not Pokemon, XMen, or Dragonball Z.
- Justify your ability. If you are applying for an ability, you will be required to justify it heavily with plot reasons, including what you plan to do with it. Special abilities will not be given out lightly, and we reserve the right to reverse our decision to grant abilities at any time (even after they've been granted).

This is the template for applying for a special ability. Please copy it, fill it out, and PM it to an administrator to be considered. We will deliberate on the decision, and you will receive your approval or denial via PM. If required, an administrator will PM you to ask for further details or clarification.

Please note that the staff will communicate with each other once your application has been received. If a staff member suggests that you wait before submitting an application because of issues with activity, etc., do not attempt to contact someone else to get a different answer.

Special Ability Application
 
Name:
Requested Ability:
Ability Specifics: Detail your ability here, including the uses you would like to have it for. Also, detail the progression of the ability if it is learned, as you would role play it (example, Fire Elementium: Ability to heat things through touch, ability to manipulate small flames, ability to heat things at a distance, ability to manipulate larger flames, ability to generate large flames and manipulate them).
Plot Reasons: Explain, in great detail, the plot reasons for this ability, and how you plan to use it in character. How does it fit with their character? How was/is it to be developed? What are its limits?
Reasons You Should Be Granted This Ability: Justify YOU having this ability, besides plot reasons. Think OOC. Have you baked cookies for Dave? Are you super active? Justify why YOU as a member of HIRP deserve it.
Please do not send personal messages to this account. If you have any questions or concerns, please speak to an administrator in the CBox at the bottom of every page.

Please see the following friendly reminder from Dave regarding post quality. Help us make HIRP's writing better!

HIRP now has a Common Knowledge, Recent Events, and Rumours thread, which contains all the information that your characters should know having grown up in our world. Please be sure to check it out and feel free to use the knowledge in character. If you have suggestions for minor characters who might be well known, please contact a staff member.
