Mmmm, soup!

Detect: Soup, discriminatory, ranged, targeting sense

 

There's me sock!

Power defense, bulky OAF washing machine, only to prevent missing socks (-2) (Going with the missing socks in the wash as being a transform attack).

Flight, Useable As Attack, only vs targets on the ground

 

Extra-Dimensional movement: Time Travel, 1 minute into the future; Extra Time 1 Minute.

 

Those two are both useful. The flight can still be used to bash around the enemy, as long as you don't take them off the ground. While the extra time ED Movement is less useful, UNLESS you are setting something up where it would be really useful for the character to "not be there" for a minute.

My theory with the XD move was that, since you're going forward in time a minute, and it takes a minute to do it, that you're just ... advancing in time at the normal rate. ;)

 

"Wow! I went forward in time 45 seconds by typing a Hero Forum post!" That kinda thing.

Detect Honest Politicians - You probably need about 38 levels of Mega-Scale to find one.

 

Extra Limb - Prehensile Scrotum. Actually, this could have some potential uses, though not of the sort likely to come up in a CHAMPIONS campaign. Maybe when PORN HERO is released

 

It's been done. PROPHYLACTUS! was a (short-lived) character in a Champions game my gaming group played years ago. His power was a superhumanly powerful prehensile penis with stretching.

 

And everybody in the room cringed when an NPC archer pinned it to the ground in combat.

Oh, I would have read it as one minute of prep time, and then an instant flash forward. That EXACT effect was done in back to the future when Doc used the remote control on the car to send Einstein one minute into the future.
