super speed theme

A character is able to run, or otherwise move, impossibly fast. They may, for example, be able to outrun a speeding bullet.

Notes

Note the theme "time slow down ability". It is not always clear whether the situation is such that a character speeds up, or time is slowed down for the rest of the world.
