All the above, actually. Powers develop over time and usage of them, so they can be trained. Someone who had their power up until their elder years could very well be a master.
And, some peeps are born with their power, but it's uncommon to say the least.
Would there be different degrees of ability, something that could be trained and strengthened, or is it more you get what you're born with kind of powers?
I'm intrigued! I haven't actually played The Last Of Us yet, but I'm assuming since we're going non-canon, as long as I read up on it I should be okay?
Yeah that's not a problem at all. Although right now, I'm only doing non-romantic FxF pairings as long as that's okay with you. Feel free to shoot me a PM and we can start fleshing out some ideas. We should definitely be able to create a horror/fallout RP.
Panic’s Running Advanced Interest Check and Plot Ideas
Current Status: Open!
Welcome one, welcome all to a running thread of my current interests and plot ideas! I will be updating this as I develop new plot ideas or as my interests change. Please feel free to peruse my ideas or ask me about yours. All I ask is that before you ask about beginning an RP, please read over my general rules just so we do not run into any unnecessary issues down the road. Cheers!
GENERAL RULES
I promise I am not some rule lover, but I do have a few guidelines that I stick by. I am extremely flexible though so please do not consider any of these too be ironclad. That being said, let’s get down to brass tax.
I’m only interested in Advanced RPs. That means no text talk, no one liners (or even one paragraphers). If you can’t provide me with a proper post, let me know. I know what it’s like to be stuck. We can bounce ideas off until you can. I’d much rather wait and help out then receive a disappointing return.
Grammar and spelling as far as spell check should be fine. I shouldn’t have to decode your writing, but then again I can’t spell to save my life so I’m very forgiving.
I don’t have any post minimums but understand I will most likely reflect what you give me. Write me a novel and I’ll write you sequel. Give me a short but substantial action scene and I’ll be sure to return the punches. I truly believe RPing is like a dance, so try to keep on beat.
As of right now I’m only currently writing female main characters. I’m a bit rusty from RPing and don’t trust my skills to offer you a well written male lead at this time. However, I am a big fan of NPCs, and will be making many of them male to help me get back up to scratch with writing male characters.
For the same reasoning, I’m also refraining from and romantic pairings that are not hetero at this time. I know I can do FxF or MxM pairings, or at least I used to be able to, but I need a bit of time to get back into the swing of Rping before taking them back on. That being said, I am big fans of buddy-cop or non romantic, same sex pairings.
Communication is big for me. I’m very busy and I’m sure you are too. I just ask if you are taking a large break, please please please just give me a heads up. I’m more likely to take you back if you do so. I’ll make sure to return the favor.
I don’t have any issues with mature themes and writing as long as it’s tasteful. Bring on all the sex drugs and fighting you want, but make it about the story. I don’t do smut for the sake of smut.

While normally I like to stay away from fandoms and such, I can’t resist this world, especially with Fallout 4 on the horizon. However, I do ask that if we take this on, we both use all OC characters and vaults. Just borrowing the environment. Perhaps we’re both in a vault where we have to sacrifice once every year by popular vote. Maybe a vault that at a set time was to release a neurotoxin that causes extreme paranoia. The world is our oyster.
This is an loose idea based on The Twilight Zone’s episode “It’s A Good Life”. While you don’t necessarily have to have seen it, I do highly recommend it just because!
(Shamelessly taken from Wikipedia’s plot summary) “Six-year-old Anthony Fremont looks like any other little boy, but looks can be deceiving: he is a monster, a mutant with godlike mental powers, including mindreading. Years before, he isolated his town of Peaksville, Ohio. Everybody is under his rule, even his parents. Anthony controls what goes on in the grocery store (Tomato Soup, Ham, etc.); he has also banned soap from the town for a year. He has blocked TV signals, caused cars to not work, and, due to his controlling everything, he does not attend school.
The children and adults, including his own parents, tiptoe nervously around him, constantly telling him how everything he does is "good," since displeasing him can get them wished away into a mystical "cornfield," an unknown place, from which there is no return. At one point, a dog is heard barking angrily. Anthony thinks the dog is "bad" and doesn't "like [him] at all," and wishes it into the cornfield. His father and mother are horrified, but they dare not show it.”
Our characters are some of the few remaining members of town, doing their best to live by Anthony’s ever-changing rules. Keeping him happy is the only way to survive. Someone can only live like this for so long before they snap. Any when you’ve been bent as far as the townspeople of Peaksville have, snapping comes easily.

As always, if nothing here tickles your fancy but you’d still like to try to work something out, let me know. I’m always looking for new ideas, or even willing to build something completely from the ground up. Feel Free to leave any comments, questions, or inquires for me, or send me a PM. Currently I am in the Greenwich mean Time Zone (UTC+00) until the end of July, but then I will be back in the eastern time zone.
Back for a bit while I have the time. Missed RPing and writing and hopping to itch this scratch. I'm an advanced RPer who was on the old site and sadly I think all my old RPs are gone and missing. So I'm starting fresh and hoping to hop into one or two RPs.
