I copied this Quirk from a novel when I was searching for superpowers. I really liked it and it fit the plot I was creating perfectly, so I used it in this fanfiction. The name of the Novel is Into the Portal: Monster Invasion, I saw it on Royalroad. If Author reads this, thank you.

"There are six senses that my power enhances. Sight, smell, touch, taste, hearing and space. People always assume that other senses cannot be used with the ability, Heatsense, but it can be. They are actually much more practical than touch and sight!" Sahar said with a smile.
"Well, my vision is heightened, so I can see heat signatures of objects and people around me. That allows me to locate hidden enemies or detect the presence of living creatures in the dark or even beyond objects.
My sense of smell is also heightened, so I can smell the presence of heat-emitting objects or creatures. I can even track my enemies by following their heat smells. You can think of it as smelling a particular thing out of a thousand. I am familiar with heat, so when I smell it once, I can find it easily even if I am far from it.
Mokami nodded, impressed. "That's amazing. And what about your sense of touch and others?"
"My skin is extremely sensitive to heat," Sahar said. "So I can feel the slightest change in temperature. This makes me really good at detecting changes in the environment and sensing the presence of other heat sources. My skin can sense heat from great distances.
I can hear the source of heat, like music. You cannot imagine how annoying that was until I got used to it, but once I did… Wind became music, sun became orchestra, desert became a concert…
That leaves taste and space. Most tricky ones. Taste is almost useless when my other senses are working, as it requires me to taste something to tell its degree. But if I am not able to use any other senses, I can stick my tongue out and taste the air. " She said as she looked into Mokami's eyes, "The best one is though, is space. People innately can feel space. It is like, even if you close your eyes, you can touch the tip of your nose. You know where it is in space, right? My sense works like that too. If you were to shut down all of my senses except space, I could still feel where the heat is around me. You can think of it as a map of heat around me appearing in my mind every second."
"Wow!" Mokami could only say. "That is amazing."
"Yeah," Sahar smirked, "It was taxing at first, but once I got used to it, I had never lost my target. Well, except one."
Mokami leaned back in his chair. "So, The Chameleon? Why haven't you been able to catch him yet with all these abilities?"
Sahar's face darkened. "The Chameleon is a different story. He can change his temperature and blend into his surroundings. He can't be detected by known tracking methods. And since he can change his body heat to adapt to his surroundings, my Quirk can't find him with any of my heatsense. He is like a void to me. If he is standing in front of a wall, his appearance blends perfectly with the wall. Then he reduces his heat to match the wall as well, and bam, lost."
Mokami frowned. "That sounds like a tough nut to crack. Have you tried anything else?"
Sahar nodded. "We've tried all sorts of things, from traps to surveillance, but nothing seems to work. He's too slippery for us. Not only is he extremely smart, he can also smell traps. I think it is part of his animal physiology. Also, other visions don't work. I tried any known spectrum, but he can always blend perfectly."
Mokami thought for a moment. "What about his weaknesses? Does he have any?"
Sahar shook her head. "Not that we know of. He's very good at hiding his weaknesses, and we haven't been able to find any so far."
Mokami leaned forward again, determined. "Well, we'll just have to find one. And I'm here to help you do it. You called me for this, right?"
"Yes! Thank you for taking my offer and coming all the way here. I am grateful for you to even come. If we end up failing, don't worry about it. You are still an intern after all." Sahar smiled brightly.

Mokami sat across from Sahar at a small table in a local restaurant, gazing curiously at the plates of food laid out before them. He had never tried Egyptian cuisine before and was eager to dive in.
Sahar smiled, noting Mokami's curiosity. "Help yourself," she said, gesturing to the array of dishes on the table. "I hope you like spicy food."
Mokami took a spoonful of a dish that looked like a vegetable stew and tasted it cautiously. His eyes widened at the burst of flavor in his mouth. "This is delicious!" he exclaimed.
Sahar chuckled. "I'm glad you like it. You'll find that we Egyptians take our food very seriously."
As they ate, Sahar continued to explain the situation with the Chameleon. "He's been a thorn in our side for a long time now," she said, shaking her head. "We've tried everything to catch him, but he always manages to slip away."
Mokami nodded, listening intently. "So, what do you need me to do?"
Sahar leaned forward, her expression serious. "I need you to come up with a plan. We need to catch the Chameleon once and for all."
Mokami frowned, deep in thought. "Well, we know he can change his appearance and his body heat to blend into his surroundings," he said. "So, we'll need a way to track his movements without relying on heat signatures or vision."
Sahar nodded, "That's a good start. What else?"
"How about the smell?" He asked. Every creature had a distinct smell and there were many quirk that enhanced the sense of smell.
"It might be part of his ability, or something else, but he doesn't smell. I once acquired his shed skin, but even that was useless."
Mokami continued to brainstorm, his mind working quickly. "We could set up traps in areas where he's known to frequent," he suggested. "Or use decoys to lure him out into the open."
Sahar nodded, considering his ideas. "Those could work," she said. "But we'll need to be careful. The Chameleon is smart and he won't fall for anything too obvious. Also, once he is detected, he just blends into the surroundings and escapes. I have caught his tail many times, no pun intended, but he always got away."
Mokami nodded, determined. "I'll come up with something," he said. "We'll catch him, I promise."
Sahar smiled, impressed with Mokami's determination. As they finished their meal and left the restaurant, she couldn't help but feel a sense of hope. Maybe, just maybe, with Mokami's help, they could finally catch the Chameleon.
