History WMG / NoOrdinaryFamily

In the show's universe, some people are born with natural abilities (like [[Franchise/XMen mutants]]), but they don't activate until the person experiences severe trauma (like a plane crash). The powers adapt to what would aid the person the most. It's very likely that the teleporter and [[spoiler: Watcher]] activated their powers in a heist gone bad.

* Flight, and possibly general wind control. It's pretty much the only [[StockSuperpowers Stock Superpower]] left.

He will make SherlockHolmes-style deductions about everyone and everything around him. It'd be even more amusing if he was doing it unconsciously, making connections and drawing conclusions without ever really consciously thinking about them.

* {{Jossed}} in "No Ordinary Vigilante" when it is revealed that the flower Stephanie has been studying ''isn't'' the source of their powers but somehow affected by the same force that gave them their powers (something about an identical mutation with different phenotypes). The explanation might sound like [[TechnoBabble the usual Star Trek double-talk]] but [[FridgeBrilliance it is actually quite sound considering that humans shared about a quarter of their DNA with daffodils]]. If you can accept [[SuperpowerfulGenetics the possibility that the right gene(s) can give someone comic book style superpowers]] (which happens to be [[AnthropicPrinciple the entire premise of the show]]), it is refreshing to know that the writers [[AvertedTrope actually managed to stay awake]] [[YouFailBiologyForever during their high school biology class]].

Think about it. When a worldwide blackout happens, one object that gets rendered useless is the television. When the TV becomes useless, every single TV show you have ever known will come to an abrupt end.

* Except its ''not'' an [[DidNotDoTheResearch island]], its South America...

** Jossed in [[BeyondTheImpossible episode two]]. Stephanie actually [[GenreSavvy thought of this, so she checked water samples from the crash site]]. The green stuff was apparently a naturally-occuring phenomenon (bare with me, I saw the episode two days ago); there was nothing special about the water...that they could detect, anyway.

* His only power is superhuman intelligence, and he's in a story about people with other superpowers. Except for a minor character in ''Rising Stars'', all the other superpowered characters that fit that description are villains.
** Actually that's a fair description of Richie from StaticShock or Charlie from Series/Heroes. Super Intelligence was the less evil power in Richie's case.
** Actually his power is to be [[IncredibleHercules Amadeus Cho]]. Minus the coyote.
** It really looks like they're setting his story up for this. He has been given multiple opportunities to reveal his power to his parents, but he continues to lie to them. When it finally comes out, they'll probably more than a little miffed and punish him. He'll feel that the punishment is unfair, their relationship will be strained, and he'll eventually come under the wing of Stephanie's boss.
* He has Dr. Doom's brain and Bullseye's accuracy. He already has an inferiority complex and troubled emotions. If he DOESN'T become a super villain I'm gonna be very surprised.
* Or he could become a supersleuth, making Sherlock Holmes-style deductions about everyone and everything around him. It'd be even more amusing if he was doing it unconsciously, making connections and drawing conclusions without ever really consciously thinking about them. "How did you KNOW that?" "It's just...obvious!"
** Its extremely doubtful that JJ will become a Super villain especially since its a Disney show.
*** ...A Disney show that already has villains, and they're villains who do NOT hesitate to kill...
**** And MindRape

Dr. King gained a healing personality power because the Trillsettum was only supposed to keep him alive. Every time he gave himself an injection the power was being reset, but it was always the same because he was in the same mindset. However, when he injects himself in the finale he's in a very different mindset, that of wanting to destroy Jim. Therefore he was able to gain additional powers that acted as counters to the Powells'.

King manifested Jim's and Steph's powers because he was pre-occupied with the two of them (along with staying alive). The Powells themselves have been covered elsewhere. Victoria really wants to fit in and have people like her (shapeshifting). Joshua wants to serve and protect his family so he gets a bunch of stuff that makes his father happy. This would also explain the baby's powers as well as Daphne's mind reading. Daphne 'learned' the power from Joshua while the baby picked up on Joshua's and Katie's desire for it to stay alive (pre and post birth) while learning about healing and telekinesis from Dr. King and Joshua respectively; the reason it was able to activate the powers to begin with are revealed in the finale. The extreme life or death situation in both instances caused the baby's powers to kick in.

* Able to hit a persons ''stamina'' bar instead of flesh and bone. Every time he hits someone he charges his fists with neural energy that saps his opponents energy . Doesn't matter how strong they are or if they are wearing amour one punch knocks them out. Becoming a defacto Iron fist type .

* Long range telepathy with Jim, super sight and super ear, to become a super sidekick.

* Flight, and possibly general wind control. It's pretty much the only [[StockSuperpowers Stock Superpower]] left.

Obviously the BigBad put him on the plane to die, but it backfired; he inhaled enough vaporized ''Trisellum'' to set him up, though his might be lame, since he got less.

* [[spoiler:He had AllYourPowersCombined. Then he died]].

His only power is superhuman intelligence, and he's in a story about people with other superpowers. Except for a minor character in ''Rising Stars'', all the other superpowered characters that fit that description are villains.

[[WMG: Daphne with become a supervillain.]]
In the most recent episode, she uses her Mind Control on her father and shows no remorse afterward.
* Maybe not after seeing the recent episode as when she had a good chance to mind contorl the person who killed Natalie's mom into confessing and turning herself in but instead she went out to call her Dad to help in which cause her and JJ to almost get killed.
* The fact that JJ knows about this new facet of her power (and, more importantly, is immune), will likely help curb any villanous urges she might have. I'm more worried about how they're going to keep this from being a GameBreaker--they already proved in the necklace episode that they need to knock her out or otherwise keep her from solving everything with mind control. I just hope that they take this to the logical conclusion (limit her powers, especially when she tries to make someone do something out of character) rather than just knock her out every time something important is happening.

IN the show's universe, some people are born with natural abilties (like [[XMen mutants]]), but they don't activate until the person experiences severe trauma (like a plane crash). The powers adapt to what would aid the person the most. It's very likely that the teleporter and [[spoiler: Watcher]] activated their powers in a heist gone bad.

* might be jossed, check out the animated comic where he is told by a psychic he will eventually cross sword with them. If that is cannon he might just be sizing them up so they can't surprise him.

** that could be argued.he doesn't want to be metaphorically drug addicted anymore,and he'd rather have Katie and no powers than powers and no katie,but a case can be made that if he could(HIGHLY unlikely at this point) he'd go for permanent powers AND Katie.

Watcher has alluded that Dr. King is not at the head of the Super-Human Conspiracy. The parallels between Global Tech and The Company are uncanny- secret organizations developed to study the emergence of superpowers in human beings. Dr. King is clearly the one in charge of the branch that develops the SuperSerum seen in Volume 3 of ''Heroes'', and somewhere on the same level of authority as [[SmugSnake Thompson]] and above [[BadassNormal Noah Bennet.]]
