Precognition
Precognition.
It must be a pretty poor power to have.
No seriously, think about it. There are, as I can think, two possibilities as to how the world could work:
A) Time is predetermined.
B) Time is a ball of wibbly-wobbly... timey-wimey... stuff.
In case A, you could see the future. But then it's pointless, because all you can do is look at it. You'd work out eventually that you can't change a thing, and that anything you try to do leads to the event itself. Examples later.
In case B, where time is changeable? If the person with precognitive powers can see and change the future, ANYONE can change the future. Any coin flip can go either way, which renders seeing the future useless as ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN.
Unless said coin flip is a fixed moment in time that cannot change, and it always falls heads at 13:45:12 on Tiamatzday the 32nd of Gruggtember. But then what if something happens to prevent that coin flipping? Then that "fixed" moment in time is stopped entirely, making it therefore changeable and not fixed and then DEFEATING THE ENTIRE POINT OF FIXING THE FLIP.
Which means precognition... sucks.
Now on to precognition in games.
Out of A and B, which is the best to use?
If you pick type B, the player in question will feel shortchanged. But then again that can be positive, as you can railroad them whatever they do by saying "You can see the future. You can also change the future. Give me one reason why Joe Bloggs can't too."
If you pick type A? They'll be annoyed about not being able to change anything. And they'll try their hardest to change things. The plot gets tenuous when the main character sees themself bludgeoned to death in front of the Eiffel Tower and then runs off to Australia? How do you kill them in France, then?
(the solution is to give them a sidequest in the US and have them die in Las Vegas ^^)

why im skilled in a variety of things
i think the reason i can do tones of things well (sword fighting[yeah i do that],cooking,web design, and guns for example) is be cause whoever made my character sheet put these things as my weaknesses:burned by mint(yeah im serious it does),near sighted, autism, and the NEVER ENDING GREASE THAT IS MY HAIR.

Firstly....
@ Lady D... LMFAO!!!! (I love that kid!)
Secondly, as to random thoughts... 4 wheels at the cost of 4 roto-zip cutters and 2 jigsaw blades seems a bit counter-intuitive... Wondering if it would have been cheaper to just by some 8 inch rounds.
