Dramatic Clothing
Dramatic Clothing (minor) by Taalismn
“I don’t care what they say. Capes are still fashionable...and relevant.”
The superbeing’s clothing seems to ripple and move in ways that accentuate their figure, make the smallest movements look more powerful and dramatic, and make the person look more imposing. Even in a dead calm, closed room with zero-ventilation, capes will swirl like they’re in a windstorm, t-shirts will flex like they’re covering impressive musculature, and garments will flare or snap as if containing great power. Or maybe the supersuit just looks sleek and the superbeing looks like he’s going supersonic, when he’s just standing still. The movement of the clothing will also make it harder for opponents to grapple with the superbeing(the clothing seems to either flow out of the way or else the person seems to swim in their clothing, making it that much harder to get a solid grip on them).
Obviously the limitation is that the person has to be wearing clothing of some sort; at the very least a cape (though a bedsheet or tablecloth will do in a pinch).

- Opponents trying to hit the superbeing are also -2 to strike the character because of the clothing being a distraction(eyes just seem to slide off him), or obscuring the character in a swirling mass of chains/ribbons/cloak.
