Let's say you walk up one morning, go about yor usual actions, and upon leaving the house/wherever it is you live, you trip down the stairs upon leaving and fall into a pile of goo. But, this is no ordinary goo; it's toxic nuclear waste-type of goo, and it gives you super powers!

What would your powers be?

Me personally.... I'd love to be a psychokinetic.

I want to be able to fly around, and fast too that is, incombination with invisibility that is.

I want super speed..........yeah.

psychokinetic OR super morphing ability... "i'm gene shallot now, bye!"

I want to be able to talk people into doing anything I say. Then I want to use that power to become the world's best used car salesman. My superhero name will be Sales Man.

Well, considering I'm already the inspiration for a local comic book villainess, I'd say I'll have to stick with that and go with.....astral/magic-based powers. Y'know, so I don't have to go messing up my hair in physical combat.

But if I had a real choice, I'd do something pragmatic like telepathy and telekinesis, 'cause I'd use those day-to-day.

I did this thread a couple weeks ago

http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=467088

I even had a poll.

Unlimited telekinesis that also affected energy. You know, so I'd be invincible. I'd spend most of my ill-gotten gains hiring someone to think of a cool name, slogan, and designing an AWESOME villainess costume. Then I'd take over the universe.

Telekinesis. The possibilities... ;)

Omnipotence.

I'd like the power to keep this thread from popping up every other month.

Telekinesis because it can be used to create every other cool superpower.

Just remember!

NO CAPES!!!!!!

Perfect Xenolinguistics & immortality.

No one would ever be able to hide behing the cloak of mistranslation if I were around.

As an immortal, I would be unkillable, so I would be the single most sought after Real-Time translator on the planet.

Ahhhh the sweet smell of Lucre!

Just remember!

NO CAPES!!!!!!

Yeah right. I'd have a cape. I'd have the BEST cape. It's the law.

nuh-uh... captain yesterday has the best cape :)

not even the gods themselves can do that.

but anyways, i'd choose control of time. it allows for superspeed but so much more.

I think that Super Kings is better, but lemme go and see captain yesterdays...

Erm, it just looks yellow to me, but then google isn't being entirely helpful.

i would... want to... have the power to have an infinite amount of wishes, wishing to have different powers at diferent times making me the ultimate.
wahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahaha ^_^!!!!

actually, if you read the first post, there are no wishes involved. it a radioactive goo.

*snort* magic....

Clairtangency is my first choice. I've explained that one before.

But in the spirit of a new thread, I'll voice one that I've never seen before;

Probability manipulation. Like a human Infinite Improbability drive, my very presense twists the laws of probability to my favor;

I'd be extraordinarily lucky. My enemies would be extraordinarily unlucky. If someone tried to kill me, they'd be hit by a bus. Which would be odd if the man trying to kill me was a rooftop sniper. :)

But that's how my power would work. It makes the highly improbable events probable to my favor.

me I would love to be able to make everyones underpants spontaneously mve 1 foot to the left the ensuing embarrassment would undoubtedly kill my foes.;)

Heh... that's great!

Omnipotence.

Can I have a double order of that, and that really big shiney-eyed look that makes everyone go "awwwww"?

Omnipotence.
You beat me to it again. I'll go for omniscience then. I can use the knowledge to become omnipotent.

but anyways, i'd choose control of time. it allows for superspeed but so much more.
No fair, I was going to do that. Now what, lets see. :headbang:
Ah, I got it control over Time And Relative Dimensions In Space, I'll call it TARDIS, oh wait crap. What about WABAC...

Other than Time Manipulation it would be cool to be able to have a really long cape that cannot be caught in something.

Speaking of time manipulation, has anyone other than me played the TimeShift demo?

Can I have a double order of that, and that really big shiney-eyed look that makes everyone go "awwwww"?
Awwwww!

Being the Ultimate Karelan Form of Existence. So much that no one even thinks about attacking me!

You guys think to in the box.
You need to have the ability to control other
super heros powers and take them like kirby.:headbang: :sniper:

#who is Kirby?

Powers of Pink Floyd. I can make people hallucinate, summon freaky monster thingies, and shot a white lazer that hits a triangle and splits into a rainbow beam, amoung others. Bring it on.

Would immortality be too much to ask for?

every forum there is has one of these threads but what the hell
if i could choose a power it would be to just go to sleep whenever i wanted because being asleap is easier than being awake

Would immortality be too much to ask for?
If I say yes "open" and no "closed" the answer would be clopen.

Like commiting suicide and coming back?

OK, lets say I now have the powers of a character on DBZ. Be more fun anyway. :)

To do what?

I would love to have a gem on my mask that can open cold ones by glowing.

Teleportation. Who needs traffic.

Manifestation. The ability to create (manifest) anything, no matter how improbable/impossible/real weird.

It would be way rad.

Like a sixteen ton slab of lead ten feet directly above my enemies.

Like commiting suicide and coming back?

i really dont know
lol im kinda tired right now and cant think past anything beyond the monitor and getting some sleep

Hydro-kiniesis. Cause humans are 70% water

Hydro-kiniesis. Cause humans are 70% water

Or the ability to turn water into wine. For exactly the same reason.

Mine would have to be quite simply the power to make people shut up at will. With a snap of my fingers I would silence any and all fools who dare to annoy me. It sounds silly, I know, but I am certain this ability would be extremely useful in many instances.

Come on! Let's be serious here!

Eeeeek, Flash!

Me personally.... I'd love to be a psychokinetic.

Instantaneous, 100% accurate teleportation combined with a tele-visual power so I could see ahead of time that the area I was teleporting to was clear and would remain so.

The Scarlet Witch and the aptly named Longshot, both of Marvel fame, had that power. ;)

WHOOPS! Now I have revealed my secret ID of Comic Collector Woman!

Invisibility(When i choose)
Pyro stuff.

At the risk at sounding like a D&D geek, I would like to be able to Polymorph. It practical even when not fight evil people. Turn into a giraffe to reach those high shelves, turn into a cheetah to catch those lectures in time. Turn into a giant red dragon and beat the traffic. Turn in a banana at a dance club and start singing "it peanut butter and jelly time" or turn into alter beast and beat the crap out of other people that do that.

Edit: bad spelling, sorry.

super mental hacking. some people hack pc's - i hack other peoples/animals minds.
so much fun i can have with that :D

Practically unlimited stamina and incredible acrobatic abilities.

No, come to think of it I'd like to be a Nexus-6 android from "Do androids dream of electric sheep?" Just like a human, except for a mechanical body and no empathy.

The Scarlet Witch and the aptly named Longshot, both of Marvel fame, had that power. ;)

WHOOPS! Now I have revealed my secret ID of Comic Collector Woman!

As well as Black Cat from the Spiderman comics. :eek: Oops! :eek:

OMG!!!! Lunatic Goofballs and I have something in common! Eek!


*teleports*




;)

I'd like to be able to not only speak every language but also to rhyme.. Just call me Z to tha Thizzo!

Also I'd like to have no bodily smell.

Also that look through stuff power.

Teleporting, yeah that would be so nice!

Oh yeah.. Whenever I strike a still pose bullets just bounce of me.. invincibiltity and stuff..

doesn't that mean that you can't move as long as there are bullets being fired at you?

Maybe but I'll look cool! Fo' shizzle my whiger!

Sorry if already posted

If I could be a superhero
I would be awesome man
I’d fly around the world fighting crime
According to my awesome plan
And if I saw criminals trying to lie
Hurting other people and making them cry
I’d haul them off to jail in my awesome van
‘Cause I would be awesome man

Now, Some criminals want you to be a criminal
And they offer you things like drugs, alcohol
But we know what to do, kids
We just say ‘No’

If I could be a superhero
I would be Drug-Free boy
Telling the world of the evils of drugs
And all of the lives they destroy
Well I would take all the junk
He’s getting so high
With their needles and bongs
And their sticks of tye
As I burn them alive I would squeal with joy
Because I would be drug-free boy

If I could be a superhero
I'd be Immigration dude
I’d send all the foreigners back to their homes
For eating up all of our food
And taking our welfare and best jobs to boot
Like landscaping, dishwashing, picking our fruit
I’d pass a lot of laws to get rid of their food
‘Cause I’d be Immigration Dude

Kids, You can make up your very own superhero
If you could, Who would it be?
If I a superhero
Would you be justice guy
Making sure people get what they deserve
Especially women who lie
Like if a wife left her husband
With three kids and no job
To run off to Hawaii
With some doctor named bob
You can skin them and drain them of blood so they die
Especially bob
Then you would be justice guy

Or you could be more sutle
No, I didn’t mean to be vague
Give her the mad cow disease
Let him die of the plague
As long as they suffer for their terrible lies
Especially Bob
Then You would be Justice Guy
Yes then you would be a super hero like me

Maybe but I'll look cool! Fo' shizzle my whiger!
you're lucky i can't afford sufficient ammo to keep you under constant gunfire :mp5: :p

The Scarlet Witch and the aptly named Longshot, both of Marvel fame, had that power. ;)

WHOOPS! Now I have revealed my secret ID of Comic Collector Woman!
Probablitity manipulation is a Damn good power.

and you forgot Rolette of the Hellions. ;)

They re-vamped Scarlet Witch so that now she manipulates reality/perceptions of people.

Black Cat didn't have control over her powers. For a Time it was also affecting Spiderman as well.


however, I want the Molecule Man's ability. especially after Dr. Doom removed his limitiation.

being able to control/manipulate as well as alter any and all Molecules.
