    Hello there,

    I am Jay, 28, married, IT customer support team lead. My super power is kind of like a jack of all trades, I am able to keep up at work, maintain a great relationship with my wife, go out with friends on the reg, volunteer often, play on 3 softball teams, workout, and count calories....all while playing my 85 warrior tank, decimating dragons with my destro mage in Skyrim, and fighting off the Reapers in ME3 on the 360 :)

    Hi, I'm Charlotte, and my superpower is a bizarre affinity with cats and small children. I never asked for these powers, I just got them. I love wrestling, heavy metal, computer games and warhammer 40k.

    Hi Everyone! I'm Siouan, 36, from Stockport UK, and my superpower is bending time - on a weekend I can make a day go by like a couple of hours by switching on my Xbox, but during the week a day is at least 50 hours long when I'm stuck in the office!

    Oh, and I can make biscuits disappear really fast, but I'm trying not to do that so much anymore!

    I'm Kelly, 29, mother of two (2 yr old boy and 5 yr old girl) :)

    When my babies were babies my super power was making milk... however I have altered my abilities and now make geeky crafts including crochet zombies and Cthulhu's, horror themed pottery, and of course killing dragons on Skyrim. Every once in a while I morph into Nathan Drake and hunt treasure... "I'm Nathan Drake B******!"

    I am a huge horror buff and have a super quirky and crude sense of humor 8-/

    I'm Ericka, and my superpower is that I'm an empath. I can sense whether a person has good or bad intentions, and if they are inherently a good or bad person. When I'm not busy reading people's emotions or exercising to control my diabetes, I'm playing my lvl 85 Arcane Mage on Silvermoon, or watching Zombies chomp on innocent bystanders.

    Hi all!

    I'm Jayson and besides liking at least 3 quarters of the list of things of interest in the thread about this group I'm also a big basketball fan.

    A little about the geeky side of me... I love Star Wars and have all the movies on multiple formats, I often get into arguments with Trekkies about which franchise was superior, I'm a gamer on both PS3 and PC and am currently subscribed to 2 MMO's - EVE Online & Star Wars: The Old Republic so as you can see, I'm probably at home with this group!

    My super power is that I am able to pilot 3 star ships in EVE Online at once plus the whole flying and super strength thing.

    Hi, I'm Andrea. I applied for teleportation but instead was given a selection of mildly entertaining party pieces including making a chicken out of a tea-towel, tying a knot in a cherry stalk with my tongue and being able to do a five finger fillet pretty damn fast without losing a digit. Not quite 'Aliens' standard but hey, I'm human.

    Cheers for the invite, not sure I qualify as a geek but it's nice to feel wanted :bigsmile:

    I'm Meg. I'm super happy that this group exists. My super power is the ability to not be creative enough to come up with one; therefore, boring my opponent to death.

    Hello! My name is Giulia and I think my superpower is probably the ability to make any situation that has ever existed awkward to the maximum degree whilst expending very little effort.

    I should say right now: I'm a Whovian, a Sherlockian, and a Nerdfighter and I am desperately seeking all others who are like-minded to support and be supported on this journey!

    Hi All! I'm Cathy and I think my superpower is baking..... no one can seem to resist. Oh, and common sense, it seems to escape some people. :laugh:

    Oh, I'm also a big Dr. Who fan :love: , love Dr. Sheldon Cooper :blushing: , and can spend hours on end watching Star Treck Next Generation.

    Hi, I'm fels and my superpower is eating entire tubs of nutella. Oh, wait, is that something every girl can do? I guess it'll have to just be something boring like my laser vision instead.

    Hello!
    I'm Amanda and my super power is to turn chip crumbs into a whole chip.
    *sigh* really wish I could do that.

    I guess my real super power is the ability to learn things at a faster pace than average.

    Hi! I'm JC (no not THAT JC), I am new to MFP and this is the first group I found (must be karma). My super power is to be able to locate things in my house when I'm not in my house. I think this is important.

    I'm Mandy, my superpower makes me a master of disguise, I hope to be as good as Mystique someday

    I'm a geek but most people wouldn't know it. I have an unhealthy relationship with Harry Potter, LOTR, Star Wars and most of all history. I am fascinated by the styles and cultures of the Victorian, Tudor and French Revolution Eras. I also enjoy studying any American war. I suppose I am a bit of a history nerd.

    I am also a self-proclaimed scholar of classic rock.

    Anyways, hello!

    Hello fellow Geeks!

    I'm Ann & I'm most definitely a geek. Books (anything, I really honestly don't mind what genre/type/size), sci-fi, fantasy, RPGs (computer & pen 'n' paper), Board Games, crochet, needlepoint, jewellery making, computers.... Currently extremely happy because I have a new home PC. I even work in IT for a living & I can out-geek most of my colleagues. I don't like excel though... (mostly because I work with Business Intelligence software, they teach us to dislike excel!!)

    I think I have two super-powers. 1) I can spot typo's more or less instantly 2) I have an attraction to small shiny beads, I must accumulate these... I'm not sure if this is a super-power or a fatal flaw. Only time will tell (If anyone ever sees a news article about a woman buried alive under a hoard of small shiny beads, its' the latter). :bigsmile:

    Anyway, yay! Happy to be here :bigsmile:

    Hiyaz! My name is Natalie Rae -- Nick name is Nona. My superpowers are my abilities to catch details onto paper in images and words and my picture perfect memory. It comes in handy for tests, I just have to read black words on white paper over and over and when I'm in the testing room, I'll look at a blank wall and through my eyes it will show up as if it was painted there. :) I'm also extraordinarily empathic and can usually read people's emotions as I observe them, even when they are trying to act like everything is alright. Most all of my friends have pointed out that it's one of my best qualities as a friend. I also have the ability to get just about any stranger to tell me their life story. Maybe it's how I express myself when talking to them that I make them confident that I am honest and trustworthy.

    Nice to meet you all!
