    Default If you could have a single super power, what would it be? And what would you do with your powers?

    We did this on the old board so I'm bringing it back. If you could choose to have one super power, what would that power be? And what would you do with it?

    Edit: no wishing for more wishes, meaning no powers that gives you more than one power.

    Mine would be the ability to pass through solid objects, à la Kitty Pryde of the X-Men. And I would use those powers for totally noble purposes. Nothing naughty at all. redface.jpg

    In all seriousness, I think phasing would have all sorts of cool uses, both practical ones in day-to-day life (I'd never be using doors again in my house), as well as granting me the ability to FIGHT CRIME AT NIGHT! >dramatic echo< I used to really like more 'flashy' powers like generating ice or superspeed, but now I prefer the more subdued ones.

    Teleportation. I mean really, I wouldn't have to waste money on gas or get stuck in traffic ever again!

    Healing. So I could rid the world of disease.

    For me, it's a tossup between super-speed and teleportation.

    Same here. Plus I could attend any convention because transportation and hotel are non issues. The only catch is that I would want it to be teleportation with the ability to take anything I'm touching, including people and their belongings.

    Tactile telekinesis.

    Because I'd love to fly, and it's other useful facets are nice perks too.

    I would be a telepath like prof x or Emma frost. I would live a normal life, but guide people towards good when I have a chance.

    I thought this was the best when I saw it. Then I realized if you want to help the world you have to keep traveling everywhere all the time? Would you be ok doing that?

    Hmm didn't think of that. Maybe Healing with thoughts as opposed to having to physically touch those that needed healing.

    My superhero name would be Howie Mandel :P

    Then you would need to have a Cerebro type machine and you would accomplish your mission!

    Your supervillians would be all the medical companies that you take away business for.

    I think I'd take teleportation. As mentioned, it would be great for cons. I could finally go back to San Diego ComicCon again without having to worry about gas and hotel prices. Also, every time there's a special one-night screening of a classic movie I'd like to see in Los Angeles, I could just zap down there for a couple hours.

    Guess I'll take reality-warping then since nobody else seems to want it.
