Come on now people - 6 pages, and no one's mentioned that /e pushup might be used in...creative ways by the less mature members of the playerbase?

Only if you consider every sort of brawling to be martial arts. Wrestling, boxing, street fighting, pretty much anything weapon based. Theses are all natural "powers".
There are a lot of different themes that could be done under natural, nevermind that even if you limit it to "martial arts", ninja's are only a small subset of that. EDIT: Also, under the definition that CoX uses for the "natural" origin, aliens and other beings that get their powers simply because they were born with it also count as natural (eg. Superman is natural, because his powers stem from his Kryptonian heritage). |
Are we just talking about combat, or should we consider other things like clairvoyance, telepathy, spoon-bending, etc.?

Someone wielding a Broadsword seems pretty natural to me. Dual-Blades is possible without it being based on a martial art. Assault Rifle ... nah, you need super powers to heft one of those. Shield Defense ... nope, can't happen.

Batman is Natural/Tech/Scince as i have stated before.
What so i was wrong at least to a degree al lot of the Character mention have base in martial arts, yes your super spy is different because of gun play.
I think lots of us would like bosses like you!
The Resistance has boobs too, and better hair!
As in "It's not anime good, but it's decent."
Dispari has more than enough credability, and certainly doesn't need to borrow any from you.

Samuel_Tow is the only poster that makes me want to punch him in the head more often when I'm agreeing with him than when I'm disagreeing with him.

Unless they want to invent an origin specifically for him, he both fits the Natural origin and has been accepted to fit there very much ever time this is brought up. This is especially important for me, because I have a whole cartload of Natural characters, just no natural HUMANS.
|
Even the Natural Origin description says so
"or perhaps you are not human at all, and possess powers natural to your race."
Well it can be argued that assault Rifle is Tech, it stop being a simple machine, but I willing to say you got me.
|
Of course, almost every character is at least partially natural (excluding robots or golems and stuff). For example, my Sonic blaster is Tech because he received his powers from an implant in his throat but that doesn't help him run faster or jump higher. So I try to find "natural" solutions to those things. I'm sure a lot of other people's characters are the same way.

Just spent ten minutes ninja-ing around Sharkead with my ninja blade/willpower stalker.
WOW!
10/10, would buy again, worth way more than 9.99.
haven't even looked at anything else in the pack, but Ninja Run is the best thing since pre-ED IH.

Archery is a martial art? Assault Rifle? Hitting people with a baseball bat?

Well, the Natural Origin stores have guns, ammo and landmines among the knives, throwing stars and giant jugs of steroids

I would actually consider Superman's powers Science. If he was on his home planet with everything normal and "natural," he'd have no powers. It's our sun that gives him his abilities. It'd be like if humans went to some distant planet and the gasses in the air gave them super strength. I wouldn't consider that Natural. He doesn't just have his powers, and he didn't train for them. Some outside source reacts with him and gives him those powers.

I always figured that the science origin permanently imbued you with powers, such in the case of Spider-Man or the Fantastic 4. Spidey doesn't need continued bites from radioactive spiders and the FF doesn't need continued exposure from cosmic rays to maintain their powers.
