Here at The Strong Storm, we don't believe in having every power under the sun, nor do we belive in things such as pyrokineses, aquakineses, or telepathy (animal or human). These are psychic abilites and have nothing to do with magic. This is a Harry Potter role playing site, not X-men, or Heroes or anything of the like. That being said here is a list of approved abilities from the Harry Potter series, that you may ask for in your application.
