I have a couple of questions for y'all, and I'd be much obliged if you could answer them.

1.) How many realities have you visited, and what were they like?
2.) What is the last thing you remember before coming here?

It probably goes without saying that I'm new around here. There's not much to say about myself, really. Name's the same as the username, this place is a step up from home; the usual, I'm sure.

It sounds kinda complicated. But useful as long as you don't mess up. I know a few teleporters that work pretty similar when it comes to needing to see things in your mind.

Did you lose the ability when you got here?

Sometimes trigger objects can work, to anchor yourself to someone or someplace, but they need to be significant in some way to work. You aren't going to get anything from trying to use someone's toothbrush.

No, I lost it before coming here. It didn't have anything to do with this place.

[iseegoblins]

What if it's their favorite toothbrush that was a gift from their favorite uncle?

Ah. I want to ask how you lost it, but that seems kinda personal.

[finalrequest]

In that case, maybe? If you knew the uncle.

It's not really that interesting. After a time, my powers can fade on their own. There's a way to "recharge" them so to speak, but I don't much care for doing it.

[iseegoblins]

Oh. That's pretty weird, I've never heard of powers just fading.

[finalrequest]

I suppose so.

I've never met anyone whose powers worked just like someone else, though. In my case, they're never gone completely, they just become weaker over time.

[iseegoblins]

True. Most powers where I'm from are all pretty different. Even the ones that are from the same kind of category.

[finalrequest]

Exactly.

The only real thing people with abilities have in common where I'm from is the ability to sense BTs. Think of them as hostile, vengeful spirits completely invisible to most people.

Even at the lowest level, one can sense the connection BTs have with the Beach, a purgatory of sorts. It's everything else that comes with the abilities that's different.
