If you were to have any superpower, what would it be? No, "All-Superpowers"

For me, it'd be Invisibility and Supervision.

The power to control time.

Spiderman's.

Or invisibility.

Power to change the laws of the universe. Just at that point though. No going back in time, no resurrecting folk.

the ability to absorb other abilities without being a whiny emo girl

I would be Homeless Man, fighting crime...whereever I may be...

Hiro Nakamura

Or a whiny emo brother of a congressman.

.

To change chance and probability in my favor.

To change any aspect of my body at whim. (This ranges from making myself hotter to transforming into a dinosaur.)

I would be spiderman... only if I got the sweet costume.

Either the time thing or telekinesis.

I would suck the power out of Kirk Hammet's fingertips.

Professor X. Read and control minds ftw.

.

Fly

walk

Well Prof. X is a strong character despite his disability to walk.

Yep. I thought this conclusion was drawn the last time we had a thread like this XD


If not that, then the ability to stop time.

My power would be the ability to choose all-superpowers.

But wait, wouldn't that mean in the end, you wouldn't get a power? Just the chance to metaphorically have it?

*head splodes*

Anything to spite Warlockmish. That power is priceless.

Telekinesis, by itself, has got to be the lamest and laziest power ever.

As for myself, either the anime cliche of energy manipulation or the VTM discipline of Obtenebration.

Energy manipulation has a wide and varied range of uses. Everything from mind reading and telekinesis to blowing up mountains and physically enabling yourself to dissipear from sight from excessive speed and your body being capable of taking that kind of punishment.

Obtenebration is basically controlling shadows. From using shadows to hide yourself from sight to summoning up shadowy entities and tossing someone you don't like into a black void.

regeneration!

Tell me that again after using nothing but the power of my mind I hold you completely motionless before slamming a skyscraper into the side of your head while stopping the world from spinning and changing the TV channel without a remote or leaving the comfort of my floating couch.

I would reverse the flow of time until I was safe, and then I would travel back in time and kill your parents before you were conceived.

And then I would play poker. Lots and lots of poker.

The problem with that is you could be dead before you realize you're in danger. If you get shot by a sniper, your power isn't very helpful (unless it wasn't an instantly-fatal shot).

Now if there were a duo of time-controllers, one could simply reverse the time until before the other time-controller was killed, then save him. You'd be nigh invulnerable.

Either to detect others' abilities or to have super strength...maybe both! >.>

Immorality.

In time, science and technology will provide me with every super power your puny mortals minds can conceive of, and MORE. Eventually, even TIME will bend to my will. I SHALL BECOME AS A GOD, TAKING MY RIGHTFUL PLACE AS THE INDISPUTABLE RULER OF EVERYTHING!

BWAAAAA HAAAAAAA HAAAAAAAAAAAA BWAAAAAAAAAA HAAAAAAAAAAAA HAAAAAA HAAAAAAAA

But with such power comes one condition: the inability to experience mortality. I imagine eventually you'd become so utterly fascinated with the one thing you can't have you'd do everything in your power to have it. This's actually a pretty good argument for deity-suicide here.

Why play poker and deal with angry people accusing you of cheating when you could just swipe anything you wanted by stopping time?

Same. Transforming is an underrated power.

No one's laughing at my walk joke. I wasted an awesome oppertunity to explain my favorite superpower for Emon to say "haha kirby" in the chat?

I'm losing it.

It might have been funnier had someone else not already said it in a Heroes thread a week back or so.

not the chance, the ability to CHOOSE it.
And with the ability to choose to have all superpowers...
I would just then choose to have all superpowers, since I am able.

DL Hawkins.

The power to tie ANYTHING into a balloon animal.

Seeing as how you would probably be an old man by the time you amassed such power and have the physical prowess of a twig, I will.

Sure, you can hold me in place...if you have at least as much raw power as I do, and enough power to continue to hold me as I expend almost no energy.

Crush me with something? I think i'll just crank up my own energy output a few notches, just enough that you have to put all your effort into containing me.

So basically, unless you have a large head start in getting your power, you would never be able to beat me with basic telekinesis alone.

Is it a Western cliche that TK must be applied directly? Why not just use the TK to throw and aim a wall of knives? Much like "Sniper" from Yu Yu Hakusho, of course his powers were a bit more complex (Hardness of an object, marking targets so he doesn't have to manually aim objects) and he carried a gun. (Another idea, use TK for perfect accuracy with a firearm).

But even then, it only works if your target can't dodge your attacks or is invulnerable to physical assaults.

Immortality, ala regeneration/eternal youth.


I will become a despondent walking killing machine war monger.
