* AbsurdlySharpBlade: Trayen, Nakira and Kazuo all use these.
* AgonyBeam: John Lant [[spoiler:had]] this power.

* CodeName: At the Orphanage many of the [[DifferentlyPoweredIndividual DPI]]s use these, some for secrecy, some for fun, some because they don't know their real names.

* AFormYouAreComfortableWith: The Aeons (gods) are implied to be this.
* ISeeDeadPeople: Lalita Necron can see and hear dead people. This extends to being able to recognise vampires and other corporeal undead by seeing the exposed part of them (fangs, scars, that spot where their heart was violently ripped out and shown to them before they died) glowing brightly.
* KaleidoscopeHair: Graces hair colour changes almost every night, and interestingly enough she never seems to use dye. It even blends multiple colours together.

* MassSuperEmpoweringEvent: Chenobyl was the straw that broke the camels back, now just about anything nuclear, cosmic or secret science experiment will cause this.
* MundaneUtility: Matthew Bounds uses his power all... of... the... time... and most of the other characters don't even notice it, which is probably why things turn bad when he is {{Brought Down to Normal}}.
* PersonalityPowers: The more of an element Trayen absorbs the more his appearance and personality changes.
* PowerIncontinence: Silence can't talk due to his inability to disable his sonic vaccum field.

* SuperheroSchool: One of the buildings in the Orphanage doubles as this.
