Do the characters need to ONLY have Titan, Swift, or Dynamo qualities, or can they be one with perhaps a very high Strength and a few minor powers? Typically most nova's don't erupt or develop only one mega or power.

Just a friendly inquiry.
Appearance 5(1) mr. nobody
Manipulation 5(3)opacity, trickster, clarity
Charisma 5(3)suave, dolor, inspiration

They can have as many or as few powers, enhancements, backgrounds or merits/flaws as the author likes.  The story just needs to be about how one of the mega attributes defines the character in some way.

I don't know how necessary it is to specify this, but my story is about Mega-Dexterity.

Congratulations, Ashnod!

The story was well written, and really hit the heart of the other side of the question,"What Would You Do With The Power Of A God?", especially if you didn't want it?
Again, congrats!

Congrats Ashnod, I have to say that your story was one I rather enjoyed, and worthy of the win.
