In this instance, having the ability to use telekinesis down to the quantum level is of limited use if you don't also have senses capable of examining your surroundings at those levels of detail.

For the character I created, one of the main problems he had was that he could sense his surroundings on a subatomic level - he was literally aware of every single subatomic particle around him at all times within about a thirty-foot radius. Which, with a regular human mind (even one at the peak of human ability), was a serious strain on his sanity. It took a massive amount of mental fortitude to stay focused and functional, although having a regular human mind also helped by only having the ability to pay attention to a limited number of things at once. Pretty much every other fight or so, he'd end up overtaxing himself by pushing too hard or trying some new trick and end up unconscious for a couple days.
So he's essentially a great utility character, generally focused on stealth and misdirection, but has the capability to operate as a glass cannon rail gun if necessary for a very limited time at the cost of being out of commission afterwards.

"Time for the Yamato to fire the Wave Motion Gun. Who's going to carry me?"
 

Engineering school destroyed my ability to appreciate comics.

"Whatever, Superman. If you tried to lift a truck like that, you'd just tear the bumper off. Use the proper lift points, sheesh."
For me, it was when he flies at top speed to catch Lois Lane falling off the Daily Planet (or something like that). Seriously, Clark, the impact of you grabbing her at that velocity is far deadlier than if she'd hit the ground!

Goes to dig up ASM 121-122 from 1973.
 



@Gradine, your RPG is hilarious and fun, and you should be proud of yourself!

Myself and two friends just played it. I was Breeze Vanderbuilt, 14F, lover of Yaoi Fanfic. My two besties (a lover of vampire romance and a lover of tennis) spent two hours getting our fabulous selves to the coffee shop. Along the way we were accosted by the MF police three times, construction workers twice, and my bestie's crush like, oh my god can you even believe it?! I made it to the shop with plenty of Joy left over for my pumpkin spice latte, but my besties were really struggling because seriously, ACAB.
I am glad that you were able to give it a whirl, and that it actually turned out to be playable! I am also glad that you were able to get to your Pumpkin Spice Lattes without running out of Joy!

If your tennis bestie ended up rolling for milk, I'm curious what she ended up with!

It was kinda boring, actually (coconut). Better than soy, I suppose...
The tricky part was actually rolling a 1d31. We ended up rolling d% and dividing the result by 3, rounding up.
