[PvK]

I think ironic heroic abilities are good for two reasons:

1) It means the Hall of Fame isn't _guaranteed_ to give you a directly useful ability.

2) It creates peculiar and interesting or amusing nearly unique characters, who sometimes have new uses because of their odd abilities.

However I'd like to see special abilities available to remarkable characters via a mechanic that isn't limited to the top few people on a world-wide "top" list.
