(I finally have a Star Wars icon, even!) For comparison I'm looking for other canons that have people with special powers that are sometimes born among the population and whose existence is general knowledge. <br /><br />So far I have:<br />- the telepaths in Babylon 5 <br />- the mutants (or other super-powered people, but mutants fit best) in X-Men/Marvel and other superhero stories<br />- benders in Avatar:tla and LoK, though they're a bit more wide-spread<br />- chakra users in Naruto<br />- wizards and witches and magicians in several fantasy worlds: right now I can only think of Tortall and Emelan, but I know I'm missing some obvious ones, even excluding the many I don't know. Uprooted qualifies.<br /><br />Which other groups/worlds can you think of?<br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=schneefink&ditemid=131566" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments https://schneefink.dreamwidth.org/131566.html star wars meta multifandom public 9
