human powers
*nods* that would make sense.
Although a lot of vampire powers don't mesh well with humans..
Human powers might be stuff like:
'Techie' - Has a deep understand of electronics and the realm of computers. (Translates to hacking, and the like)
'Small Arms Training' - Has considerable skill with many small weapons including pistols and submachine guns.
'Rifle Training' - Has considerable skill with rifle weapons including automatic and semi-automatic rifles and sniper rifles.
These could be considered 'medium powers' and vampires could take them in place of major powers, humans never get major powers, however.
Some similar flaws would be stuff like
'Greed' - A desire for more material wealth drives this person, occassionally providing cause for irrational decisions.
'Drug Addict'
'Alchie'
etc.
'Heavy Weapons Training' - Has considerable skill with heavy weapons including RPG's, Heavy Machine Guns, and other large automatic weapons.
'Demolition' - Blows stuff up.
'Political' - Is learned in the realm of politics. Can coerce, suggest, convince, or dazzle their way through life.
Also...
Grifter - This mortal is a con artist. It could be anything from identity theft to pick pocketing.
Pop-culture - If you have a flaw that vampires are behind the times, there should be an ability for humans to be REALLY up on the times. *looks to see that he doesn't have an Ipod or a blog* I do not have this power.
Driving - Again, automobiles have only been around for a hundred years (give or take). If you're a Vampire from Elizabethan England, then a car is still prolly "new" to you.
Medical - Another "new" development is modern medical technology. A person trained as a doctor today is light years ahead of a person trained 20 years ago... and a vampire who's a civil war doctor may be seen as a complete monster. *grins*
Finance - Another "new" concept that mortals would be better at than vampires is the idea of investing in a modern day market / using the stock market online / understanding business in the 21st century / etc.
Local Modern Geography -
Vampire: "Wasn't there a bar here?"
Mortal: "Yeah, like TEN YEARS ago. It was a strip mall, but that failed so they tore it down and made low-income housing."
Vampire: "Oh..."
"Vampire Lore" - I've got this in quotes because it's meant as more of a joke than anything. There has to be the mortal out there who's SURE he knows all there is to know about vampires, but actually only knows old wives tales. "You mean garlic doesn't work on your guys!?"
