I believe many if not all of us have a superpower that nobody else has. You may not have discovered yours yet, or realized that your special ability(ies) are superpowers!

Here's mine: I know on a subconscious level where anything is. I first noticed this when I was about 12, but didn't realize it was "special" till recently. So I'm the one who, when somebody is looking for their car keys, will be able to say "they are on the third shelf by the toothpaste in the bathroom" without even thinking about it. I attribute it to visual processing. I don't even realize I "see" these things, but apparently my brain does.

I'm psychic. I think the power developed to compensate for my inability to read people's feelings and intentions from thier non verbal communications. Now I don't have to do any of that messy stuff, and I just have it all beamed directly into my mind.

lets see...

I apparantly can sneak around without realizing it. With my size every footstep should be loud and s**t, but I manage to always just "appear" to people, and in the process scare the s**t outta them.

I also tend to heal extremely fast and I think my con score is above 18 (I hope someone got the Con Score reference)

I tend to know how to work something and fix it without ANY training.

oh, and the pointing out of everyones personality flaws, and subsequently pissing them off. It is soooooooo entertaining to watch the drama unfold after I accurately state that someone probably got molested as a child, and i end up being right about it.

If your saying we have super powers then I'd say this is what mine is:

If I'm deeply interested in a subject then my learning curve sky-rockets and although the subject is new it feels natural no matter how hard it is. Unfortunately my interests keep changing and they never seem to be relevant to what is going on around me most of the time.

- I've got something strange going on with being burned. I have poured boiling kettle water on me on a number of occasions (accidental ofcourse) and although the skin goes red for the first few minutes. An hour later and there isn't any proof I was even burned at all.

-- I'm calm natured and have attracted animals before. I've seen things such as: a crow landing on my arm and even a close up sighting of a red fox; which actually scared off some boys who were following me.

Very good memory and fast reading - it helps.
Analysing mind.
GPS inside.

I'm not used to learn. Sometimes it goes bad. But I don't know how to learn :D

I've got a kind of random memory which is really useful to remember all kind of useless things.

It's not a superpower but I am useful in a blackout, I have hypersensitive vision and only need low light to find my way around.

Same as Valoyossa - fast reading, analytical, I can find my way out of a desert (and did it) etc. I'm also relentless, which is both positive and negative.

I can learn programming languages in a few hours.

Not to brag or anything.

Learning... well, there's only one way. Example. Nothing else works.

Yes, example. With picture :D

I meant: sometimes I should learn but I don't know how to, because I'm not used.

I thought yours was unknowingly turning inanimate objects animate and having them attack you? :P

Mine is, when I miss, I miss good.

That too. My amazing procrastination ability is another one. I'm multi-superpowered.

I can recognize patterns of behavior in other people, and thus can usually predict future behavior with amazing accuracy. I can also immediately bond with most animals, within a few seconds of meeting them.
