A while ago I had some ideas for some Worm fics. I could never find the time to sit down and write them, so I'll be posting my ideas here, and maybe one day I'll write them.
Responses and questions are appreciated.

Body Hopper
Body Hopper - Alt - Taylor can transfer her consciousness into anyone she makes eye contact with. She gains full control of their body while they can't even think. If she tries, she could remember what they know.

I wanted her to leave her body in the hospital and be uninterested in going back to it. She doesn't want to be herself.
 
Stretchy Body
Stretchy Body (Lovecraftian) - Alt - A Being from the Outer Realm lands on earth, it recognizes the danger it's in and tries to blend in. It stumbles upon Taylor and consumes her whole, the next day she wakes up in her bed. Over the day she discovers her powers. Her physiology has changed, she is super strong and durable, she has squishy bones, stretchy muscles and hair, and detachable eyes. Later on, she'll learn she has thin ink-like blood, and can grow: teeth, tongues, nails, hair, and eyes all over her body.

Every part of her body can stretch up to three times its normal length, and her body is sectioned where her joints should be, so a finger can stretch up to nine times its length. She'd bounce around and swing from buildings with her limbs.

Taylor also becomes Invisible to most Shards. Precog doesn't factor her in, and the Manson Limit refuses to recognize her. Thinker, Trump, Master and Stranger powers don't work on her, but Shakers do. Alec feels sick being near her 'nervous system'. Panacea blacks out if she touches her. Lisa's Shard calls her a Pretender, and an Intruder, which greatly confuses Lisa. Vista can feel the non-euclid texture of her skin and when she tries to put distance between them, Taylor stretches with the space. Coil, Dinah and Contessa can't see her out of the real world.

White Matter
White Matter - Alt - Taylor could generate a stark white substance that was lighter than air and unbreakable, she could manipulate it into any form. A needle no thicker than an atom, and if she formed a big ball, and put something inside it and compressed, she could force matter into a single point and start a black hole.
 
Rewind
Rewind - Alt - Taylor can rewind time, but she isn't rewinded with it, and things on her stay with her. She can not go back further than an hour, and her power needs to recharge the same amount she went back. She could go back an hour, wait five minutes, and go back five minutes.

Basically Max's power from Life is Strange, I just wanted to put it to combat use.

Taylor could technically teleport, and duplicate items.
 
Witches and Warlocks
Witches and Warlocks - AU - Shards are Devils/Demons and they form Pacts with Humans to spread their influence in the world. And other Shards form Pacts to help hide their existence. While Taylor as hospitalized, she met the Queen, her body incomplete and made up of bugs, she foolishly accepted a Deal. Now she had to deal with others like her wanting her to join them or die.

The more a Shard is worshiped the more powerful it becomes.

Taylor would be scouted by Lisa and Victoria, each wanting her to join them in getting rid of the other, but Taylor would rather everything went back to normal. Queen tells Taylor that if she completes her end of the Deal, Taylor can go free.

The Slaughterhouse Nine, Endbringers, Cauldron, and Scion, are on a different level.
 
Time Bubbles
Time Stop Bubbles - Alt - Shutter. Taylor can make Bubbles that Accelerate or Decelerate the Time Inside.
3 Bubbles Max.
(Inside) = Outside.
(Accelerate) = Decelerate. (Decelerate) = Accelerate.
Possible. (2s) = 1s. (.5s) = 1s. (20s) = 10s. (5s) = 10s. (20m) = 1s. (1h) = 3s. (1y) = 1s. (1s) = 1y.
Inside the (Bubble) Time Moves Faster or Slower.
Type. Strength. Size. Location.
Taylor spends days healing in the span of a few minutes.
Spending 30m to 1h in an accelerated bubble will lead to CO2 poisoning.
Time Tools: Books, Notebooks, Food, Stop Watch.
Taylor spends most of her time in her accelerated bubble, (20m) = 1s.
Taylor can Accelerate Time inside a Bubble to be (100,000 years) = 1 second.
 
School
Super School - AU - Most of the world has powers. Taylor and her Dad run an extermination business, they use their powers to take care of insects and rats. Something happens, and Taylor is sent to an Academy to train her powers.

The gangs and teams are cliques, and Emma is there.
 
Reallocation
Reallocation - Alt - Taylor can absorb Shards that enter her raidus, and she can give them out. Parahumans pass out when they lose their powers. She can help C53s and the Travelers, and she can take out the Nine, every villain she meets lose their power, her power can't be jammed. She allows society to dictate if someone is worthy of their power. Her Shards is centered on managing other Shards.

Scion stays on the other side of the world from her.
 
Ajin
Ajin - Alt - Taylor is brooding in a bus, and then capes crash into, she dies and revives before it finishes rolling. After reviving she still get injured and is hospitalized, thinking back to the crash, for a moment the world around her disappeared, and then she was tumbling. While she is in the hospital, a figure unseen by human eyes starts to tear apart criminals, all of them barely surviving.

Months later, Taylor and her father have reconnected after her brush with death, and she is living a better life, she's about to transfer schools.

And news of the psycho vigilante has reached just about everyone, it was super strong and indestructible. By analyzing the damage it's done, people knew it had long claws on every limb. And recently Armsmaster was able to take a picture of it, it was completely black and had no face. They called it Wraith.

Wraith would attack all manner of villains during the night.

I'm not sure on the limit of Othala's racism, but I thought it would be neat to force her to heal Grue so the Undersiders and E88 could escape.

Wraith can't enter Grue's Darkness.

The villains and heroes had called a meeting to deal with Wraith, and agreed to take it down.

Lisa would conclude that it was a projection, keep this knowledge to herself, and investigate potential Masters, she would investigate Taylor, who was hospitalized when Wraith first started to appear. And because Taylor had been in a previous crash, one that took her mother. (Taylor also died and was revived in that one.)

While stalking Taylor, she spots Amy and forces her to help her, but after touching her and falling to find a Corona Pollentia, Amy tells Lisa and she crosses her off.

After a while, Taylor would start to have dreams about what the Wraith was doing, as she was gaining awareness of her puppet, Wraith started to repeat Taylor's thoughts during the crash. They should just die.

Then Wraith starts killing every Parahuman it finds.

Glory Girl had a second Trigger trying to protect Panacea.

As Brockton Bay falls into chaos, the Wraith visits Arcadia looking for the Wards during lunch, using Taylor's memories, she recently saw something that let her know the identity of a Ward. As everyone starts to panic, Taylor screams and everyone in earshot freezes, their bodies locking up.

The countdown starts until Taylor has to face the facts.

The Wraith won't even harm her because she controls it.
 
Copy
Copy - Alt - Taylor copies the powers of people or their powers she's comes into contact with, two can be used at a time. This was an early idea, I just wanted to see what power combos I could make with every cape in the Bay. I only put the limit on her power after creating Godzilla.

When I tried writing the first chapter I was having trouble deciding the events, so I made a little encounter generator, this was the result.

Undersiders - Stealing (ABB) - Attack Regent - Struggle - Noticed by Bitch (Sics dog) - (Regent spasms arm: released) Tased and Tackled - small impact before Flicker - Noticed by TT (tells Grue) - Grue floods Area (no Flicker(pain, wants Swap, takes Grue, Regent in dark)) (TT sees T Glitch in Pain and stumble back) - US Flee's.

After that I wrote a little thing for the future, I decided that Lisa would know how powers Bud.

(TT: Cheap costume + Unheard of + Teenager = New Trigger.
Regent, Bitch, and Grue Report (Snuck up + Flicker + Bad Reaction to Grue = Shadow Stalker Bud.
New Trigger + Shadow Stalker = SS caused Trigger.
Actions (Hero) = Doesn't Know SS in costume = knows SS in Civi + SS character = Bully = NT was bullied to Trigger = requires extended effects + age = both students = SS bullied a girl in school to trigger.
NT tried Hero + bullied = Not Naive, Idealistic.
Idealistic NT Hero + Grue = Bad Team.
Victory = High. Usefulness = Low.)

New Wave - Fight (E88(Non Cape))- 5:00 PM - Mugging - Glory Girl interrupts - Hide, scared. Copies GG's powers, become immune.
 
Clones
Clones - Taylor can make unlimited clones of any parahuman in her raidus, herself included. Every paraclone can use the original's power, and are mentally connected to the one who made them. Taylor would send a clone to school and the library while she stayed home. School-Taylor would make a copy of Sophia, and learn she is Shadow Stalker, then she would dissolve the clone before it got violent.

After weeks of preparing, she was ready to be a hero. She would send out hundreds of clones to patrol the city, and would make hundreds of clones of every Hero she stumbled upon. Clones were as durable and powerful as the original, and would stay a corpse until Taylor made it go away.

While hundreds of clones of heroes tried to assimilate into society, Taylor would keep the fact that she can see through their eyes and think with their brains a secret.

Heroes were lost, mainly because every clone didn't know they were a clone.

Taylor would be hired to clone essential heroes.
 
Gatemaker
Gatemaker - Alt - Taylor can create portals. At first she could only make one, and it had two functions. Window and Mirror. Window was hard to even notice, at least if the orientation stayed the same, when something entered the Window it would come out the other side, and if the orientation was changed then it would come out sideways or upside down. Mirror was an unbreakable shield, because anything wanted to go in, met itself at the entrance.

When a month passed, she could make two portals anywhere in eyesight, and they stayed in place until dismissed.

A single Portal has two sides, Side A and Side B.
Type 1-Window: A To B, Matter passes straight through. >|>
Type 2-Mirror: A To A, B To B, Matter is reflected. <()>
Type 3- Portal: A To A2, B To B2, Matter is transported across space. >) (>
 
Genderswapped
Gender Swap AU - Alt - Taylor constantly got into fights, he tried to not let his mom, Danielle, notice. He kept quiet in school and never reported the fights. After his father, Anthony, died, he has been trying to take care of his mom. He triggered from slowly dying in an alley, he has the power to regenerate from injuries and death. Abusing his power allows him to ignore human limits, he's five times stronger than he should be, he never tires and doesn't need to eat or breathe, he's a noctis cape.

Defenders
Defenders x Worm

Teen versions of the Marvel heroes were fighting The Hand when a rift swallowed them up.

Matthew Murdock finds a vantage point and he struggles to comprehend what everyone in the city is talking about.
After a while he sorts out the important information and then he finds some civilian clothes and he blends in.

For plot sake, he is around a library when he notices a person and a lot of bugs acting in the same wavelength.
He could investigate and run into Taylor. (Idea: Taylor POV first, and play up the interaction.)
(Hmmmm… Demonic Energy left over from a possession? Or Chi?)
(Can his powers be studied and replicated? Thinker Serum?)

Jessica Jones roughs up a mugger.
Glory Girl spectates and comments that this was a rare but not unwelcome sight.
GG lowers herself out of the sky and tries to communicate with JJ, but it doesn't go well.
A lull forms between them, so GG amps up her Aura to smooth things over.
JJ realizes why she doesn't like GG. Something is whispering in her ear to Worship or Fear her.
JJ panicked and punched GG.
GG tanks the first shot (use up her shield), which JJ takes to mean she should punch harder, the second hit breaks through her stomach and spine. (Jessica's fist was glowing with pink energy.)
JJ runs as someone in her head laughs at her. JJ has a panic attack. (KG: Smile for you fans.)
GG is on the ground, bleeding out quickly, she manages to click a panic button before passing out. (Brain dead? Or don't torment Amy so early?)
(JJ triggers? Or just expand on pink PSI-energy)
(Can her powers be studied and replicated? Brute Serum?)

Luke Cage gives some Nazis a beat down.
(Can his powers be studied and replicated? Brute Serum?)
