Nice, a future dragon.
@Mr Allen J I have a few thoughts, although I'm highly unlikely to play more than one character.

1. You Are What You Eat - taken to the extreme. This character can both dissect what is in anything they consume, but also change their body composition to match anything they have eaten recently (or maybe just what they have eaten most recently). So after a soda, they could make their skin bubble, which would be a neat party trick. Alternatively, they could eat a rock and then become a human statue at will.

2. Environmental Control. This character can absorb and direct heat and affect the temperature, humidity and barometic pressure (limitedly) of the space they occupy, up to a certain radius. Also, they are generally invulnerable to heat and cold effects. Directing heat would include superheating an item and taking heat from something (such as a cookie or oven). This could potentially also include some degree of water control, as related to the saturation of water in surrounding air.

Thoughts on either of these?
I'm interested.

I mean, 'fuck this I'm out' is easily among the best available responses. It's that or try to befriend the unconscious strangers.

The problem with camping is waking up with the sun; the benefit is seeing the sun filter through the trees while you start your day with a cigarette.

Still bleary-eyed, Margareth retrieved a cigarette and lighter from her disheveled pockets and set the paper cylinder between her teeth as she sat up. She fumbled a few times trying to operate the lighter, and when she had it working, held it to the end of her cigarette. That's when she noticed that the trees did not look anything like they had just a few hours ago. The sun did not filter romantically into the grassy clearing where she had fallen asleep. Actually, the trees were barren and looked like they had been that way for a while. Somewhat shaken, Margareth closed her eyes and inhaled. Unfortunately, when she looked again, the scene before her had not changed.

"Uh." She took the cigarette from her mouth and held it between her index and middle fingers. "Am I... possessing... a spirit?"

That conclusion seemed reasonable. Margareth knew well that modern society was cancerous to the spirit and therefore could also be forcing the spiritual world into a wintry, barren state. However, last night she had not been trying especially hard to reach the spiritual realms; she had been hiking to get in touch with her own spirit. Maybe you don't get here through trying... but I must have broken through somehow...

Regardless, it would be foolish to assume that she would be permitted to stay in this new place longer than a few moments. Margareth took a long moment to observe the scenery around her. The craggy cliffs loomed in the distance, and she wished she could get a photo for her blog - but, obviously, cameras and smartphones don't work in the spirit realms.

And then she turned, and saw something else.

A spirit.

A powerful, angry spirit, made of fire and fury.

It could not possibly be anything else.

And Margareth knew what she had to do. There was no acceptable course of action except to light incense to appease and connect with this spirit, which had clearly called her to this place for a certain purpose.

Hurriedly, Margareth put out her cigarette in the dirt. She left it there, and stood quickly, looking around frantically for something appropriate to burn. This is the point when she noticed the other people lying around her - and one who had already begun running from his true purpose and calling.

"Wait!" She called after him, somewhat frantically. "You have to come back!"

This was obviously important to the angry spirit. Margareth ran after him.

About:
Margareth absolutely believes in evil spirits. She writes about them, and how they ought to be dealt with, on her Wordpress blog, which is updated at least five times weekly. She has been obsessed for at least a decade now with natural cures for supernatural ills. Five years ago, on her 21st birthday, she sacrificed most of what she calls the "cancer of modern society" for a life spent primarily camping and hiking. She maintained two primary connections to her former city life: cigarettes, and her blog, which funds her cigarettes. Magareth smokes roughly one pack of Newports per day, usually no more than three in a row.

Magareth is a woman of few opinions that remain unsaid. She is confident that every problem has a solution, and that she has the solution to most problems. She believes that humans are intrinsically good, but modern society robs them of their goodness. A definitive hippy, she constantly wishes that we could return to simpler times. A social butterfly with a savior complex, Margareth believes everyone can be saved through spiritual cleansing and aromatherapy.
