    Default the 16 super types

    If each type had a super power, what would it be?

    Ideally the super power should have an inherent weakness (as super powers generally do), and dual pairs' powers cover each other's weaknesses. One's conflictor could also be one's "natural enemy" (like fire and water). If someone's feeling really ambitious, activity partners could make each other's powers stronger, and relations of supervision/benefit could also be worked in.

    This is meant to be something of a brain storming session though, so don't get too caught up in making the intertype relations fit. (:

    I was thinking "crowd manipulation" for EIE. Like, if they're in a crowd of people they can get people to look at, listen to, and support (obey? ) him/her.

    Maybe, as a "natural enemy", SLI's could get people to go to sleep?

    One Ni type could see the past, another the future, etc. Fun stuff.

    ESE should have that ability.

    A Se type should have regeneration (like Claire from Heroes), and another should have super strength. LSE's could have super speed, perhaps? (The other Te dominant type doesn't want it. )

    Well, my first idea for EIE was that they could genocide people, but that seemed a little off base. And overpowered.

    LSIs should lose their tactical skills if someone shaves their mustache, like a samson sort of deal.

    Well, the LSI's tactical power is useless if they can't get anyone to enact them. The EIE enslaves the masses, the LSI guides them in battle. Perhaps the EIE has to be in the presence of the people (s)he's controlling though or the power would be too great?

    Hey wait, I've always been on the pirate side of pirates vs. ninjas!

    ... and yet, we *are* supposed to be assassins ...

    seriously, though (or maybe since this thread is a joke it should be "srsly tho"):

    SLI - the power to wait and then things work themselves out anyway.

    Maybe that should = invisibility? Or maybe super-luck, like this:

    Karma: Wayne Hawkings was a mutant born with a power to disrupt the mental processes of people attacking him so they could not touch him -- punches would miss in what seemed to be accidents, such as the attacker slipping or tripping. However, his power only protected him from attackers who had brains; a collapsing building or a stray bullet could still kill him. He joined the Doom Patrol, but fled when they discovered that he was a wanted man.

    lol so true

    I once tried to explain to my ISTj dad my [half-serious] theory that most problems solve themselves before two weeks have passed. He was unimpressed.

    LSI's could be genius tacticians... *shiver goes down spine thinking about the fearsome combination of this LSI with the aforementioned EIE*
