Muse Powers.
SuperHeroes or not?
Are the muses omnipotent and do not have issues themselves, or are they affected by the “kryptonite” found in today’s toxic society?
As the muses engage in the creative process, are they just touch-points where something they say, do, leave behind, etc. is the mechanism they use to indirectly influence the writer/ performer through dreams or straightforward messages?
Maybe our muses have been stripped of super powers, and when they try to use them, a comedy track ensues! However, through music, they obtain back their powers, not full-strength.

As goddesses, the muses possess the natural powers and abilities of Olympian deities such as immortality, omnipresence, high level of durability, vast stamina and speed and strength with excellent reflexes and balancing and insight and responses, acrobatic skills beyond of normal humans, and the potential to do Magic, such as the ability to shapeshift, teleport, and to manifest as objects. They have perfect pitch, can sing and dance, romance, play any instrument and are seen in episodes doing just that.
As the goddesses of the Arts, they possess the natural ability to charm and entrance those who hear their hypnotically beautiful and soft melodious vocalizing melodies and songs. As their domain lies in the arts, they exist virtually anywhere they are presented or portrayed as a work of art (as paintings, statues, etc.)
Muses lost all their power and now have limited capabilities to influence or inspire. They now have to really figure things out if they are to have any chance at redemption—they thought it would be a piece of cake getting back into the flow.
The audience needs to have empathy and connect with these folks, feel their problems as they try to influence creativity. They need to believe there is someone somewhere out there struggling to help them create the next great work. The idea is there and passion for the project is indisputable—but the actual commercial exploitation is vague, except in the creator’s minds. To make their creation real— to actually produce it—they must assemble a competent team to move it out of the imagination and into the real world where others can see and feel it.
