#fantasy abilities

I think a useful set of skills for fantasy characters could be the ability to make weird unnatural creature-y monster-y noises.

If used to emulate the sounds of particular monsters and creatures they could potentially intimidate and ward off other creatures and monsters who are scared of them.

And even if these noises aren’t based on anything real in, they could probably still be used to deter man and beast alike. After all an unknown creature could be far scarier than a known one.

I think a fun ability you could give a character would be a mean glance, that like actively debuffs and limits the person that they’re giving glance too. Perhaps it could just be because their glare is so intense, or perhaps there could be a little something else.

Maybe an odd cursed eye? Maybe the glare merely activates a spell? Maybe it’s some other sort of ability activating while the glare is merely a distraction?

Then again maybe it truly was just a glance, and any effects felt were conjured up by the mind rather than magic.
