If you could have any super power in the world what would you have and why?

Control time: who doesn't want that power?

Re: Super Power

Photographic memory. It would be so handy for school and life in general yet no expectation to go out and save the world. Not sure if that counts though, if not I'll have to think more. That's always been my top choice cause of my terrible memory.

Re: Super Power

Probably a more abstract power, like applying a force to an object just by focusing on it. Or adjusting the applied forces, rather. Having the ability to reverse gravity, or just make things hover, or speed up immensely quickly, would be awesome.

Telekinesis.
Then you'd never hurt your back picking heavy object up (though it might give you one heck of a headache).

Re: Super Power

I cheat and say metamorphosis. That way you could morph into anything with the power you currently need, thus bypass the one superpower idea and get all of them at once. For example, there's a cat stuck in a tree in California and you're in Maine. Turn into the Flash, get to California and turn into Superman to fly up to the tree and get the cat down

Re: Super Power

As someone who is a strong advocate of anything super, I've been working on ideas like this since my younger years.

Sure, you could always go with something effectively overpowered (Or rather function over fun in some cases) but for me, "Superpowers" say something about the person with them.

Currently, my fascination lies within self duplication (Mr. Everywhere if we're picking names) The duplicates would have all the underwhelming abilities of myself currently, but the fact that there were so many of them would easily compensate for any lack of "Ability" so to speak.

It'd also make this build season a heck of a lot easier if our team suddenly went up by 8 Steves or so.

This actually reminds me of an old thread I created.

http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...ad.php?t=71333

The thread didn't last long, but I thought it was a fun one. Enjoy reading it and thinking how a team of 8 Steves would actually end up.
