Deadlands - The Weird West RPG
(lemmy.world)
Weird West (or Weird Western) is a genre of fiction that uses the Wild West period of American History as a foundation and then adds fantasy/supernatural elements to it. So stories where gunslingers encounter zombies, vampires, demons, robots, or any other creatures that wouldn't otherwise be present in a standard Western.

That’s because they explicitly state in the core rules that all special abilities are “powers”.
HERO has a similar setup where you have “powers” and then you create flavor around them. HERO actually breaks out creation point discounts for some of the flavor. Like if you are a wizard who can only cast spells a certain number of times per day, your “energy projection” power (fireball) is cheaper than if you are a superhero who can shoot fire all day long.
