What would be your super power?

[Raiden no Kishi]

Absolute matter control. As in, not only can I reverse bullets like Raiden, but I can control the electrons he needs to shock people, and can subtly change his body chemistry to make him allergic to his favourite foods. Then I can crumble bullets in midair, cause the guns that fired them to transform into little metal origami cranes, rip out the hearts of my enemies while not only keeping them alive but maintaining the blood flow so that they stay conscious, and then putting the hearts back in, closing them up, and leaving no marks on their body. After that, I could use it to fly away, creating a lens effect from the air to conceal my appearance, and rearranging the ink on the top paper at the newsstand to mention the election of a unicorn to the office of mayor. I could then support myself by means of alchemy and transmutation of substances - lead into gold being common.

Of course, then there's the other answer - variable-length prehensile razor nosehair. I could use it to cut things and grab things, and I'd be able to completely hide it or to meet my enemies looking like I had mind flayer face tentacles. Or even extend it across the room for great justice.

Well, sure, but you might just as well say omnipotence then. To my mind, the reward lies in finding a power that's suitably awesome without being overpowered. YMMV, though.

[Shao Feng-Li]

I got a better one.

The Force.

[PrincessZelda]

I think invisibility and telepathy would be really cool to have. Though, the more I think about it... the only real reason I'd want those powers would be to eavesdrop. XD;;

But I mean, they could be very useful in other ways as well.

[LorentzForce]

Complete nullification of everyone else's superpowers.

[Shinja]

to turn any object blue

[bakura_fan]

I've allways been fascinated with running fast...so probably super speed. And if not that, transformation into animals (like beast boy I guess)

[Alice]

Flying is the first thing I thought of, and probably what I'd choose.

[Kaligraphic]

I'm cool with being omnipotent. Or having super nosehair. Either way.

[Htom Sirveaux]

I would have to say teleportation. That'd be freakin' cool.
Although, I already have a superpower: Diving lost mind. I dive lost mind all the time, it's just something that comes naturally for me.

[Kenshin17]

Hm, there are several I would want, but to pick one it would be:

The ability to turn matter into energy and energy into matter.

With that power I could simply construct anything I needed or wanted.

Supercomputer, check. Sports car, check. House, check.

But if I could chose a few, super healing ability, super strong bones, and a complete mastery of computers in every way shape or form. I would also like a bionic arm so I could directly interface with computers...

The Force would be cool as well, telekinesis....

[SailorDove]

Its a tie for me, perhaps could have both? The power to heal others and to fly.

Though, now that I think about it. If I could only have one, I'd ask for wisdom.

So, if I may summarize, you would just want super-powers so that you could be somewhat more than vaguely annoying? I think you can accomplish that without powers, albeit with less style.

[mitsuki lover]

I want Tommy's powers of coolness!I mean the guy is so cool that they keep asking him back on Power Rangers,either that or the power of
Chibiusa to annoy people!

[SnoringFrog]

But if I could chose a few, super healing ability, super strong bones, and a complete mastery of computers in every way shape or form. I would also like a bionic arm so I could directly interface with computers...

mastery of computers would be cool, as would a direct computer interface, especially if one could be implanted that operated wirelessly. That way as long as you were standin gnear a computer no one would necessarily have to know you were accessing it. That could come quite in handy, especially if more than one person had it, cause then, since they had interface with computers, I'd assume they could put their memories into the computer, and via this, multiple people with this ability could interchange thoughts and no have to worry about describing any particular situation to each other, as they'd just have to play it back form memory. The only problem with that would be that the quality of the playback would be entirely dependent on the person's memory.

[mitsuki lover]

Well if we're talking computers,then I would want Lain's powers.Especially the power that she has at the end of Serial Experiments Lain to change reality to make it more ideal.

[Slater]

I'd pick the power to heal/empower other people. That would be awesome.

I would become the national deity of Brazil with that.

[ashfire]

I think the powers of a Jedi would be great. Many things could be covered and if you use them wisely.

[mitsuki lover]

I want GL's ring!:thumb:

[Htom Sirveaux]

Actually, telekinesis/mental telepathy wouldn't be so bad. So long as I had absolute control over it, especially the telepathy part.

[Kamille]

I got a better one.

The Force.

My power would be something along those lines - a thing I call "infinite empathy": the ability to read peoples emotions to the point where I almost feel exactly like them. I say almost because if I felt exactly like them and something went horribly wrong and I felt the emotions of 20 or so people I'd probably explode.

On another note, this is kinda like what Kamille experience with Haman.

[Saj]

The power to kill a yak...

From 500 yards away...

With mind bullets!

haha, a few friends of mine thought of that exact thing a few years ago.



Im going to be unoriginal and say the power of flight. only because of the absolute utter awesomeness of being able to go pretty much where ever i want, when i want, and NOT have to pay for gas for my car. add on to that the romantic value it can present. its simply the best power anyone can ever have.

[Mave]

Having the ability to steal someone's superpower isn't very nice but it sure increases your options. XD And I mean, absorbing it at your will (unlike Rogue in X-Men).

Jokes aside, I would love to have this super ability to absorb knowledge into my head by merely touching it. Something like Commander Data in Star Trek:TNG. Imagine needing just 15 minutes to study for an exam by holding the book. I'll also pick up foreign languages in a whiz.

Having the ability to heal yourself and others would be my most unoriginal choice.

[termyt]

I would rather be able to heal others than my self. Stealth/Invisibility + being able to heal other is a nice combo to have, assuming there's another hero around to do the dirty work.

One of my favorite combos is Invisibility + Intangibility. At that point, not only can they not see you, they can’t touch you, either and you don’t give yourself away by having to open doors and such. Perfect stealth.

My avatar and user name date back to my role-playing days in college. Termyt was an android with a powerful AI. He had super strength, invulnerability, and he could hack any computer system. That came in handy more than once.

How 'bout the power . . . to move you.

[mitsuki lover]

Tenchi's power to attract attractive alien women and then have them
fight over you!

I don't know man, keep in mind one of them was his cousin.
