Three pages and nobody has nominated Cecil yet?
For shame, guys!
This sort of thing has been done, only with Hawkwind. The book could charitably be described as “utterly godawful.”
'nother one, kinda…
Yeah, sure, like he wasn’t either a Werebear or an example of an Ursus Sapiens. 
The rest of the list on that site might be of some use, too, at least for a basis for further research. One fellow is said to have fought a battle while carrying his own severed head.
I love it!
I haven’t seen any props for Joan of Arc
Otto Rahn is considered the Original Indiana Jones.
Jack Lucas, Medal of Honor Recipient
Stephen Hawkins and Keith Richards need some kind of mention.
How about Typhoid Mary?
Otto Rahn? I’d heard it was Roy Chaoman Andrews
Of course, tthe REAL model for Indiana was Donald Duck, but my Teemings page seems to have vanished.
Red Grange, the Galloping Ghost: super-speed and a limited ability to turn incorporeal.
In any super-hero world, there are the poor souls stuck with the really stupid super-powers.
I give you…Le Petomane.
An electronics-oriented technopath who lost much of his ability after his nervious breakdown.
Hey, if I could make that much money, and please so many people, by farting I’d be thrilled! It may have been a really stupid super-power, but Le Petomane was a genius.
I tend to think most people would go into show-biz…until their uncle gets killed.
Lou Gehrig: invulnerable to everything, except the disease that carries his name.
Chevalier d’Éon: Able to change her sex at will.
Pssst! Check post #2.
How about Steve Jobs, what with the whole reality distortion field and all?

Let me put forward Elfego Baca In the Southwest among the Mexican-Americans he was a legend. More than a few called him El Gato because it seemed as if he couldn’t be killed. And more than a few tried. One time when a white cowboy killed a Hispanic and it was clear the sheriff wasn’t going to do anything, Baca borrowed a badge from the sheriff and arrested the cowboy. The cowboy’s friends took umbruge to the arrest and poured 4,000 bullets into a shack to where Baca was forced to retreat and two days later he emerged without a scratch.
Another time he stole a pistol from Pancho Villa and Villa put a $30,000 reward out for the head of Baca. No one collected.
Another time, after he had been shot a number of times by a guy in hiding, but managed to get two shots off at his dry gulcher, a priest was performing last rites on Baca. Baca interrupted him and told the priest he would be fine, and that priest should do the last rites for the other man.

Al Capone
Elvis Presley ( if he ain’t dead.)
Annie Oakley: Dead eye

Ned Kelly A notorious Australian Bushranger and outlaw. Ned and his gang famously constructed their own bullet proof armour. Which may suggest the super power.
… and not to rain on anyones parade. Please feel free to continue, but i feel i ought to point out that the RPG campaign that this thread was set up to mine ideas for, and the spin-off campaign (Plus at least one weekend one-shot) that it spawned (with new characters, the old ones becoming the main villians of the new) ended about 2 years ago.
