i can actually cook pretty well, especially making sauces, cookies, cakes and baked goods, i just can't make coffee for some reason

Man, that's a skill I wish I had. I'm notorious for "fire alarm" dinners and kitchen disasters. Kinda jelly of my protagonist in that regard; she can make all kinds of awesome food and drink, and I'm here struggling with Kraft dinner and the like.

thanks for the thread! so that this post doesn't get too long, ill stick with a random talent for each of my characters!

nanase is a really good figure skater. she used to do it competitively when she was younger, and she still figure skates when she has time.

aiko plays bass. she picked it up when she was an older teen, and its become one of her special interests.

mau is pretty good at finding details, which is very helpful to nanase and aiko, as whenever their code isn't working (they're programmers), they just go get mau to help.

Bobbie has really great people skills. He's the type of guy that everyone likes, and he can make someone smile without much effort at all.

David is good with people as well, but more in the sense that he can read someone's emotional state and act accordingly. Makes him a great therapist for sure

R.J. is a skilled artist. He's pretty nonchalant about it and just does it for fun, but he can draw just about anything.

Gabriel has an eye for fashion and decorating. He knows what looks good, whether it be on clothing a person or a shelf in a room.

Randy's the best mechanic around. She may overcharge, but her services are well worth it. She's never seen a car she can't fix.

ooof, well, to be fair, my mom taught me how to bake when i was like, 7, so i've had 11 years to get good

The last time I knew an Iris that made coffee, she shorted out the coffee machine and caused the entire office to black-out

Jinwoo has a lot, but most of them come up as surprises throughout the story, so to avoid spoilers, i'll just say he's great at art:

Jaw drops in spanish honey, i WISH i had half those skills

Jimin's a pretty stellar cook, doing her mother's teaching justice

Hallie is insanely good at communication, she has to be. She's a counselor at a speech school for non-verbal children or children with speech disorders. Her job is to bring them out of their shells enough to want to try to talk to someone. Sometimes these kids have additional social struggles tied to things like autism, so if not for her skills, she would not really be able to communicate with them.

Jinho and Andrew are both trilingual. forgot to mention that.

They're both drag queens, music performers. Tatara is a singer and dancer. He's good at tap and ballroom, and studied singers mostly from the 20's-60's so his strong voice reflects that. Yuki is a piano player and has been studying piano since he was three. He's best at playing jazz, having that kind of ear. Yuki's drag is more subdued, preferring non-flashy costumes so he doesn't stand out much, but he seems like he belongs in a film noir. Tatara's is elegant and mature, long dresses with a royal feeling, but he is covered, such as his arms with gloves or long sleeves, and the dresses are to the floor always. Tatara is more experienced, so his special skill is knowing his face enough to make it appear very feminine with makeup. Yuki is newer to this, so Tatara helps him with his makeup.

Kattar knows video a photo editing. He's been doing it professionally since age 11 old. He used to edit videos for teenagers who wanted stuff for the social media accounts (and yes, he charged real money. His mother is a business woman, what else would he do? play with action figures?)

Leia is good at writing fiction. She's read so many books she's basically unreasonably good at it for somewhat who only does it in her spare time. Riley doesn't really have anything he knows of in his favor, and that's obviously kinda hard on the self esteem

This is available for everyone to read for free on my Patreon

Dominic and his little sister Cocoa are great cooks. He's also really strong, partly because he works out, partly because he spends a lot of time moving heavy boxes.

Essence is great at breaking down and analyzing books and stories. She'd be almost a prodigy at it if she was a little flashier, but since she's not, she's more of a quiet background genius

Ozwald: first he is a very good seamstress and jeweler-maker his role at Valoro´s Furnace is to finish the ornaments of weapons or other things made at the furnace, while not a clothing store Ozwald also fixes clothing for certain customers.

Light and fast: Ozwald is very quick on his feet he might not be physically strong but he is very fast

Magic user: something he wasn't born with but obtained through a lot of things happening, he obtained a powerful staff that allows him to create/make magical effects based on words here are some examples:
- Shell: Creates a protective barrier around him and others
- Accelerate: Creates a circular that accelerates the speed of objects that pass through it
- Release: Relocate the target to a safer point

however, Ozwald needs to have a word ready to use his magic as well as a clear idea of how it will take effect, no word can be used twice in a day, and lastly, if he lacks the power to make something happen or if its too vague nothing will happen.

Higen
Strong: Hiegn is the physical combatant of the duo there for he is very strong naturally,

Strangely smart when it comes to combat: Higen is an airhead for many things but when it comes to fighting he is surprisingly smart and able to create strategies on the spot to take down enemies.

Dimensional Gloves: Higen himself doesn't possess magical abilities, he uses a tool in the form of a pair of black gloves given to him when his father passed away, when he claps the gloves together he accesses an inventory of weapons, shields, and armors to use in combat.

Sewing is definitely a cool skill to have

Leyelle 2024-06-19 23:34:02 UTC #58

Dominic and Cocoa are also great at origami. this becomes plot relevant, believe me lol. And Dominic occasionally writes some poetry.

Honey is great at makeup, hair, fashion, styling. All things aesthetic are her gig, and she's great at styling people according to their different body types too. Cocoa and Dominic have totally different builds from her (for obvious reasons on Dominic's part.) but whenever she styles them they look on fleek.

Cuteness! Ayla's special skill is cuteness! she is the sweetest most loveable baby angel so fight me lol

Mora is an extremely talented runner. she's part of her school track team, her first time participating in organized sports in fact, but part of the top three fastest girls in the school. She's not a prodigy though, her grandmother used to make her run 6 days a week and time her, trying to get her to shave off seconds weekly, because spoilers
