stupid question maybe but does EVERYONE have a power?

i mean

how long does it take before you figure it out? usually

has anyone ever... not?

idk but when i figured out my power i accidentally phased through something and almost busted my fucking skull open
so maybe you're lucky

took 17 hours for me
just start trying stuff until something works
not flight though
or just jump off something short

It legit took me like two months to figure out mine so.

It's safer to assume that everybody has one than not but it can take time. The spectrum of powers is broad and their manifestation isn't always straightforward.

everyone but @nathan.drake apparently, he's a late bloomer

it can take days or weeks, maybe a couple months I've heard

Feeling left out, Murphy?

Most people I know had theirs triggered accidentally, so if conditions aren't right it can take awhile.

But all the Displaced should have one, yes.

I know of a few people who don't know what theirs is yet, but I haven't heard of anyone having confirmed that they don't have a power. Then again, it's difficult to confirm a lack of something.

Have you been trying to find out what it is?

Maybe your power's just really mundane and terrible.

High stress did it for me. It took me about a month and a half.

It may be so subtle as to be unnoticeable at first.

Everyone here is saying "adrenaline," but adrenaline never did jack for me. I tried everything. I goaded enough people into trying to punch me, I should know. After a month or so I just figured the same as you. That my power was broken, or lame, or non-existent.

Wasn't true, though.

Sometimes these things just have... specific requirements.

I haven't discovered mine yet either. I guess that's a month now for me. Maybe longer?

Perhaps you mean to be the first.

dude it took me like 2 months 2 figure out that i prolly HAVE a power so

not sure what it is yet but if it turns out im one of the few who dont have one im gonna be pissed off

ditto if its a lame one :/

i figured mine out when a bunch of monsters were attacking me
maybe you should find something dangerous to fight?

need a hand?

It seems the answer is yes to the first question.

I am interested in the latter.
