Idea №28 Gu (aka the infamous Poison Jar) x Worm
The idea kinda came to me after reading one of the latest The Gamer chapters. I thought "Hey, Taylor was put in The Locker full of toxic waste, and that's kinda similar to the concept of a Poison Jar, so wouldn't it be fucked up if her power was based on that?". So yeah, that's how an idea for a half-assed "tinker"(trump) power was born.
Basically, Taylor can create black colored portal thingies to several "Poison Jar" dimensions (PJD for short). She can put pretty much anything and anyone inside, except herself. Everything that was put inside a PJD will melt into super goo and combine/turn into something else. Yes, it's a half-assed crafting mechanic turned into a superpower. Here is a step by step instruction on how to use the power:
1) Put things into the black portal thingy
2) Wait till everything inside melts and turns into super goo
3) Form a mental image of what you want the super goo to turn into, based on what you put inside
4) Wait till your power makes the thing for you
5) Open the black portal so it can spit out the result at you
6) ?
7) PROFIT
Example:
Toss a shirt, a piece of metal and a feather into the PJD, wait till it melts, imagine a really light and tough shirt, wait some more, get your tough-as-metal-and-light-as-a-feather super shirt.
Tossing more of the same thing into the same PJD is a waste tho. Melting 2 similar shirts together won't make a super double shirt of double goodness or anything like that. Melting 2 knives and a taser will not produce 2 taser knives, to get that you need 2 tasers and 2 knives tossed into 2 PJDs.
The portal to the PJD can capture samples of powers (Grue's darkness, Purity's blasts, Lung's fire breath and etc.), other parahumans (I would toss SS there just for shits and giggles), and pretty much anything else as long as it can go through Taylor's portal. For example by making Grue pour his darkness cloud into the PJD and tossing in a pepper spray, with a correct mental image Taylor can get a spray that produces the same darkness as Grue, or a liquid spray that makes people temporarily blind and deaf when sprayed, or whatever else she can come up with.
By putting a whole parahuman inside PJD and any other item it is possible to make an artefact that grants its user the power of said parahuman. Obviously whatever living creature that is trapped inside the PJD is not gonna like the feeling of their whole existence melting into super goo, but who cares, right?
Broken or used up items can be re-melted. For example, if Taylor's (hypothetical) spray can of Grue's darkness has run out she can just toss it into the PJD along with any container that is full of something, I think you can figure out the rest.
So yeah, the possibilities are literally endless.
