0 Guest Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 HEALER - at the risk of being boring though I so like the idea of shape shifter and teleportatian srttle for teleportation for fun though - "I swear i put my glasses there" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Guest Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 Wow, actually looking at the list I seem to have acquired most of these powers though I have not mastered all of them. Here is my superpower status so far: FLY: Got this down, I am not only fly but occasionally super-fly. I am also sick, dope, and badass. INVISIBLE: I managed this briefly (example), but alas I am unable to control this power. SHAPE SHIFTER: I can only do this slowly, by exercising less and drinking more beer. AGE SHIFTER: Only managed that in one direction so far but I'm working on it. TRANSFORMATION: How is that different from shape shifting? STRENGTH: I have some of that, but not as much as other superheroes. CAN MAKE IT SNOW: If only. But this year there's plenty anyway so no problem. FREEZE THINGS: I can make my own ice lollies. I could probably freeze bigger things like people if I had a chest freezer. MELT THINGS: I can melt frozen things. It usually takes a while but I can make it happen instantly if I also activate my turning night into day power (see below). TURN NIGHT INTO DAY AND VICE VERSA: I am so good at this. I've got it down completely. The trick is to run into a wall at just the right speed and hey presto, suddenly it's night-time, or the other way round. I spent all of last week practising this. With great power comes great responsibility, you've got to make sure you don't run at the wall too fast or you time-shift to the following week and maybe teleport into a hospital bed as well. STOPPING TIME: Pointless TELEPORTATION: See "night into day", not one I have complete control over. OTHER: I can make really good omelettes. HA!! That actually made me laugh out loud, thank you for that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting... some people do that by using a "magic potion" unfortunately there are side effects like dizziness, headache, disorientation, sometimes vomiting and in the worst case scenario lack of bladder control. TELEPORTATION: See "night into day", not one I have complete control over. The problem with using "magic potion" for teleportation is lack of accuracy. You may end up in an unfamiliar place without any recollection on how you got there. Tricky... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Guest Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 (edited) Other: The ability to survive and thrive on only 1-2 hours of sleep a day! That would come in handy for all sorts of reasons, especially in March when the little addition to my little family shows up... It could also help to not teleport your car around a tree or something. Or maybe invisibility, but only for nefarious purposes, to be sure. Edited January 12, 2009 by Grayven Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can teleport back to my own bed 90% of the time with no idea how I did it (the other 10% you just end up in a random location) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Brandonb Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 (edited) Telekinesis all the way. I know it's not listed, but it would just be so practical. Imagine, you're sitting on the couch and you don't want to get up to grab the remote. So then it would just rise and levitate to you... But what's that? You don't know where the remote is? Almost forgot, you can hit the 'volume up/down' buttons with your mind! Yeah... the most useful ability used in the most earth-shattering way. I would be the envy of everyone at the super bowl party Also... people don't mention it too much, but if you could move stuff with your mind, then you could also fly.

0 Guest Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 OTHER: I can make really good omelettes. I could really go for an omelette right about now. how about you teleport over to my place, crack some eggs via telekenesis, fry them up with pyrokenesis and serve them to me on a levatating plate? Just don't bend my fork, you freak! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finally, someone who thinks like I do! Maybe we're just lazy. Telekinesis is definitely the best out there. Oh, and I had thought of using it to fly, though it does depend on what limits there are on the ability. If it actually takes mental strain to move something with your mind, then it might be difficult to make yourself fly, if not for more than a few seconds. But if you could move anything with ease (which is the only way I would have it), then it would be awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Guest Posted January 14, 2009 Report Share Posted January 14, 2009 There is shape shifter and then there is transformation........... whats the difference? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Brandonb Posted January 14, 2009 Report Share Posted January 14, 2009 There is shape shifter and then there is transformation........... whats the difference? If I had to guess... Shape Shifter = Ability to restructure molecular configuration to change one's shape into something of similar mass, using the properties of whatever you are made of (carbon and H2O and other stuff )... and probably retaining the presence of a brain. Transformation = Limitless ability to change the actual elemental makeup and shape of oneself, regardless of size or mass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 unreality Posted January 17, 2009 Report Share Posted January 17, 2009 yeah the ones that could be conceivably possible are teleportation (as in Jumper ) and telekinesis, which are probably the best two. Stopping time is up there too, but riddled with physical problems - same with invisibility or shapeshifting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 itachi-san Posted January 17, 2009 Report Share Posted January 17, 2009 I chose transformation because it basically has it all when you get down to it. I would be able to transform myself into a person with any of the other superpowers unless you meant I was only able to transform into a red semi-truck. Then I'd have to think about it more and probably go with telekinesis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Guest Posted March 5, 2011 Report Share Posted March 5, 2011 the nice thing about teleportation that everyone forgets is that since what you're really doing is bending the time-space continuum through a 5th dimension, you can alter the time dimension as well, so you can time-travel thus, infinite free time!

0 Quag Posted March 5, 2011 Report Share Posted March 5, 2011 defientely teleportation for me as well, I hate commuting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 peace*out Posted March 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2011 I forget what i wanted before (i think it was invisibility), but i know right now its teleportation. never late to class again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Guest Posted March 6, 2011 Report Share Posted March 6, 2011 glad I brought this back...and I'd probably use the time-bending aspect more than the straight-up spatial teleportation aspect, but it's still the same power. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
