Okay, so I'm in a bit of a pickle. I like video games, but unfortunately I can't play them all :(. What I'm asking of you people is very specific, so I'll word it as carefully as possible.

I need as many games as possible where a character/characters/everyone has an ability/skill that they can do with just themselves/their body. Sounds complicated? I know, I'm struggling with it.

Example: Skyrim; Thu'um/Shouts. The Dragonborn can unleash havoc/destruction with just his voice, nothing else.

Example that doesn't work: Mass Effect; Biotics. They require exposure to eezo, and then implants to unlock. So, not anyone can use them.

Do you get what I'm meaning? If you do, please leave me any suggestions you have, I'm stumped.

So you want us to reference games we know of?
It would help if you told us what you're doing in detail....is it fanfiction? Are you trying to get ideas for you characters? Please explain.

Yes, like I did in the examples.

Basically, I intend for the main characters in my story to develop the abilities that are used in games. Like using The Force, Thu'ums etc. Stuff that doesn't require specialist equipment.

So is this an original story---a completely new world, or fanfiction, one that we've seen before?
Can you give me a premise....that might help.
Are these people in a world where all video game worlds intermingle? Do they draw powers via telepathy with the video games they use or something? PLease give me a bit more....I'm wondering why video game specific powers are neccessary here.
