oooh, one of THESE threads?

there's got to be someone who has made some big, over controlling corporation by now...

BUT, instead of it being over controlling, it simply produces a lot of very commonly seen items, that are at the same time really wanted by a lot of people: music players, TVs, cars, desks, windows, refrigerators, servers, TOASTERS MAN. from supercomputers and mass networking to farming and rural activities, every need shall be supplied by...

Mr. Albert Finklestein, CEO of the MakAll corporation (if anyone has a better name for this organization, please offer suggestions)
Albert's super powers are to simply have a greater understanding of what people want, whether this be through some massive statistics of the population, or whether it be just a gut feeling, he knows what simple things people will want, and with his genius, he invented the TV, Computer, and many other well known products.

surely there is something wrong about this man...

Richard Olopom

Special powers: precognition that is always ten years in advance. Every year at exactly the same date, he has a prophetic dream followed by unexplained phenomena affecting the local community in unusual ways (ball lightning, outbreaks of locusts, SIDs and hallucinations.)

He makes his living on investment and real estate. And yes, he did see the current economic crisis coming..

John Fairweather
Age: 53
Power: Flight and super speed

For twenty years, Mr. Fairweather worked for the SHPS (Super-Human Parcel Service). The SHPS is a U.S. company, started in the mid-1800s, that employed people who could teleport, fly or jump great distances or run faster than horses for days on end, all to deliver letters and packages at premium prices. Quickly overshadowing the Pony Express (now only a footnote in this world's history), they turned into a successful large-scale international corporation. As people with superhuman abilities are relatively rare, and those with abilities useful to the SHPS even rarer, Mr Fairweather was very well-compensated for his service and was able to retire early. Now, he acts as a casual courier, making a small bit of extra income as he spends his semi-retirement traveling the world.

Name: Thomas Drayton
Age: 22
Powers: Cognitive Temporal Recall*
Ran away from home in his mid-teens and traveled from place to place making money as a small time con-man and from his knack for gambling.
During one such time, he was discovered by Derric Bannen, the topmost man in the racketeering business in Las Vegas who owns the Casino Thomas had been cleaning out. Instead of teaching him a lesson, Thomas was offered a position.
He is now primary advisor to Bannen and oversees most all of the illegal goings ons of the business. His abilities prove most useful in keeping Bannen clean despite his seedy criminal dealings.
However, despite the life he lives, he doesn't take any particulat joy in being a criminal, he merely sees it as an opprotunity that was too good to pass. He dreams of some day getting out of the business because he feels as though he's meant for better things.

*The power to rewind one's day.
Say you hit your head on something and for the rest of the day, you have a splitting fucking headache. At any point you want, you can rewind your day to any point at all. Could be you rewind it right after you hit your head, or when the day is over. You could go back to five minutes before you hit your head or back to when you woke up.
Thing is, you can only go back once a day.
So, you go back, prevent yourself from hitting your head, but then later on, you accidently get cut on something., can't go back to stop that.
However, if you go a day without rewinding at all, that's like a time credit you can use at any point in the future. With this time credit, you can use as an extra rewind in the course of a day, or you can use it to rewind a complete day into the past. So however many days you go without using your power, that's how many extra rewinds you get.
