Black - Subjectively time slows to a crawl for every 10 minutes you experience only one minute passes, your physical capabilities and needs remain the same, you can't dodge bullets but you're really good at paintball and although you're not super intelligent you've got plenty of time to think, from everyone else's perspective you read and learn ten times faster.
White - Any human corpse you touch is restored to life as long of there's at least 100g mass of them in one piece, for twenty four hours they live, retain all their skills/memories and are totally subservient to you. The exact reason varies depending upon the person and your relationship with them, someone who swore to kill you if you resurrected them may be all tsundere about it. Once the twenty four hours are up they return to being a corpse, for example the 100g mass piece of bone you touched. You can do this repeatedly, it cannot happen by accident you need to intend for it to happen, the person has to be dead a severed hand will not suffice.
If the "resurrected" dies they turn back into the corpse they were.
Red - The whole Wolverine/Deadpool regeneration thing, you're not super strong but you can push yourself past the normal limits of endurance. Exercise makes your muscles bigger and more toned as it normally would except you need no down time to recuperate. You still need food, you're not creating mass out of nothing and your body only has so much chemical energy to burn so your endurance isn't limitless, you can die of starvation. Curiously though taking a bullet to the head wont deprive you of your memories. If you're decapitated you'll die, there simply isn't enough mass to regenerate your vital organs. Being turned into a human smoothie is survivable insofar as whatever point you're regenerating from is in contact with enough of your biomass.
Green - You can shape shift into anything living you've touched, be it a specific person, animals of at least 100g mass, plants of at least 100g mass. You retain your mind and memories, while in the form of other people who have taken a pill you do not gain their pill-granted abilities. Shape shifting does not cure wounds or diseases although if you get an arm chopped off you can turn into an axolotl until it grows back and sharks have kickass immune systems, honey badgers are notoriously poison resistant, etc.
Orange - You can talk anyone into anything, even people who know you have this ability will succumb to your flawless reasoning in a few minutes or rather the ability is knowing exactly the right thing to say to affect people's minds just the right way to make them see things your way. Depending upon how reasonable your goal was the target may realize you've duped them after a few minutes, a few hours or they might never realize, generally the more subtle your influence the longer it will go unnoticed.
Blue - You can turn incorporeal and fly, you can only fly while incorporeal, while in this state you cannot be harmed although you can be seen although maybe not recognized if you're wearing a disguise. While incorporeal you have no physical needs although you do grow older, your flight speed maxes out at the speed of light. Being incorporeal doesn't make you emit light or turn transparent unless it's the light of a laser that would harm you then the excess light simply passes straight through, the amount of light needed to physically push you is far in excess of what would harm you. While incorporeal you cannot interact with the world around you, obviously, and you cannot transition out of the incorporeal state while a physical object of significant mass is in your way, anything less than "significant" (i.e. dust and air particles) is simply removed from existence.
I'll post more as I think of them.
On second thought this is enough.
