Documented Superpowers

>>Of course, I've recently started getting stressed out enough that I sometimes blow out streetlights as I walk under them, so my idea of the realm of possibility is probably at least a little bigger than most <<

I do that sometimes too. It's among the more common manifestations of magic, or someone with an unusually high electromagnetic field, or both. I used to fry my office light bulbs about every third week until we switched to compact fluorescents. Those last 2-3 months.

Stress definitely raises the chance of blowing out lights or any other electrical device. I have made lightbulbs actually explode before.

The most I know of wiping out is a room full of computers, but I've done that repeatedly and in different installations. *ponder* Of course, that's also the most computers I've probably been around; I don't recall being in a whole floor packed with them.

Dude, you have awesome powers.

I am better at "Die!" than "Work!" myself. Well, with hardware. I'm better at "Thrive!" than "Die!" with plants.

I fry watches, which is my mine has a nylon strap that goes between it and my skin. This makes it die more slowly. But I can also cause clocks to scatter time just by walking into a room. We once watched three timepieces separate -- some speeding and some slowing -- in just a few minutes.

When I take my clothes off in a dark room, sometimes I make a thunderstorm of dancing blue sparks.

Yeah, I can send a shockwave zapping through several people. I was bemused to read that a taser jolt travels less than a foot through human flesh.

Fascinating. The amperage of my static must be higher than average then. It's not unusual for sparks to leave pink spots on my skin, or occasionally someone else's. Blisters are rare but I've had that happen. (I wore that piece of metal jewelry in the winter once.) Most people don't seem to raise enough of a spark to do anything.
