I feel ‘Magic’ is able to cover a lot of these…
Anyway
Immortality, Insanely Rich, Magic.
I will then become a supervillainous evil wizard. Sorry-not-sorry.
Immortal, invulnerable, teleport. I’m sure the super rich I can acquire in a lifetime or two in 1 hour deliveries. Cargo ship from U.S. to Australia in an hour, got you. Rich people need organ transplants? Poof.
Military needs someone to take someone out? Poof. A few contracts and now your stacking bank accounts.
Need more rules, does magic cover teleportation?
I don’t see why not, but it would depend. Wizards can separate but need to know the location they are going too, so pick your own universe rules haha
Immortal, invulnerable, teleport
Accidentally teleport into deep space. Fuck
You’re invulnerable, just teleport again
its just self teleportation so you’ll have to do it by the arm load
Still pretty efficient if they also hit the gym and make their arms/back strong.
They carry a lot less than a vehicle, but the travel time is instant.
There is no adjectives with teleport lol, could teleport objects without yourself as well using the given information.
Real world Santa Claus teleporting objects under everyone’s Christmas tree if you got rich enough. Prop up entire economies off by building presents for holidays on man made islands of renewable trees etc
exactly santa brings the sack, he figured it out.
Enjoy being 16 trillion years old and bored out of your mind, if you’re even still sane lol
Methinks eventually going completely nuts is part and parcel of the supervillain lifestyle
I know what I signed up for.
Now all I need is a hero type who will antagonise me and mess with my plans… But never kill me or take my wealth to reduce my power. And also we’ll have a rivalry that borders on the homoerotic sexual tension.
wtf is this list, these are absolutely not equal powers. Magic alone accounts for 80% of this list. Magic, Divine Power, Attractive Lady is just the meta choice. Who the hell is gonna take something lame like Stamina or Invisibility when you could use magic powers to make yourself invisible and fly.
Lmao I didn’t see divine powers, I guess you can just pick that and stop there, once you’re a literal god give yourself anything on the list, easy-peasy.
I’m taking it to mean something more akin to a cleric’s Domain from D&D, as opposed to you turning into divinity. So you can pray to your god, and as long as it’s within your god’s domain, it will be granted.
That is still fucking busted, especially if combined with magic, but to your point, godhood makes the whole list moot.
Insanely rich: cheat codes for a comfortable life.
Shapeshifter: renders attractiveness options irrelevant and has enormous utility.
Psionics or magic, depending on strength and utility. For pscionics it really depends on how broad a range we’re talking about. If it’s just one thing or two things, nah. Being able to fling things around with my mind and pyro/cryo/electrokinesis are all tangently attached to telekinesis is great. But so is being able to throw fireballs in reanimate the dead. So really it would depend on the rules and mechanics for the magic/psionic systems. I think pscionics if it’s more like The Force or something strong from GURPS or RIFTS, magic if it’s something strong from RIFTS or D&D. If both are awesome then I’d pick whatever has the most utility probably. Especially since magic can duplicate psionic abilities using certain magic systems. But if it’s lame magic or requires something like Faustian pacts or answering to any kind of more powerful entity, screw that. But depending on the mechanics, psionics and magic are just different kinds of magic systems.
Tldr, being a stupidly rich shape-shifting reality bender sounds like the life.
You could use many of the other options to become insanely rich relatively quickly 😅
But yeah I guess skipping the part where you rob a bank or something does have some appeal 😅
-
Shapeshifting: kinky (having sex as a boy or a girl, becoming any celebrity your partner likes), recreationnal (flying like a crow, swimming as an octopus) and useful if you want to do crimes
-
Telepathy: perfect understanding of the others, or mess with their brain if they deserve it Also, this is the perfect combo with shapeshifting to impersonate people (if someone is suspicious, you have the perfect answers to their questions)
-
Healing, because I know the feeling of being powerless when a loved one suffers
-
All choices depend on the degree of the power. How much can you lift with telekinesis and how dexterous is? Is magic cantrips, level 9 spells, or something even more arcane? To what level are the speed and strength “super”? Are you a “Captain America” super human or Superman?
Thankfully, my constant favorites are pretty definite: invulnerability and immortality.
What even is “psychic” and how is meaningfully different from “telekinesis” and “telepathy”? Is it bundling all the other -kineses? Yeah, I’m giving it too much thought but personally I don’t like discussions based entirely on everyone not having enough information.
Yeah it would be interesting to know the limits. Mine would be SuperSight+Teleport, with the understanding that I’m able to perceive time very slowly at will and maybe see very far if I want to. Also, sneezing wouldn’t trigger a teleport.
I don’t want any Saiki-K situations where I’m unable to be attracted to people because I can only see through their skin by default
That was my take as well. I already have a degree of elasticity, agility, and healing. Guess I’m tapped out and cannot redeem this coupon for god-mode.
Attractive female, immortal, divine powers.
But, not any major religion. Just start making flowers bloom in the name of some minor goddess that has good rules. Go around healing people and giving out free food.
See what that does to the world when basically every main religion is “wrong”
The Wiccans I know are generally good folk, what chaos when healing crystals actually start working?
Attempt to not go mad with power.
I feel like immortality is always a monkey’s paw.
Can we replace it with like… Negligible Senescence?Assuming it’s not a monkey’s paw (since invulnerability is also there) then:
Immortality, teleportation (to escape capture), intellect.Also wtf is Devine Power?
Immortality is fine, until you end up stuck somewhere forever.
It’s inevitable, it might be 10 years from now you’ll get stuck under a mudslide and buried forever, but conscious.
In a billion years, you’ll get stuck inside the expanding sun forever.
In a few trillion years you’ll get stuck floating in the void of space forever as the universe expanded into nothingness.
Immortality needs some sort of way out, or else you’ll eventually end up suffering forever (what’s a trillion years to someone who will live for eternity?)
Immortality+invulnarability has to break physics somehow. Use that loophole to extract energy and build an entire civilization around yourself.
Be the immortal sun god of the endtimes.
Will probably be fun for a few trillion years.
Teleportation is also one of the options, so that solves the getting stuck somewhere problem. My concern is what immortality is like without also getting invulnerability…
Sure, but that just pushes back the timeline some. Even with immortality, invulnerability, and teleportation, you’re still going to live forever floating in the void of space. There just isn’t going to be anywhere to teleport TO after a few trillion years.
Unless you can teleport to other universes / realities
Immortality is fine, until you end up stuck somewhere forever.
This is the literally why I called it a monkey’s paw, and suggested negligible Senescence instead.
It’s also why I selected teleportation.It’s like you didn’t read any of my comment except the word “immortality” 😑
Immortal, invulnerable, teleportation
Now I can do whatever I want without having to worry about consequences.
I picked teleportation because I’d hate for example if somehow someone launched me into a sun or black hole and there was nothing I could do forever.
Being immortal an invulnerable I assume I’d be able to get rich very easily.
I also assume the following:
- immortal mean that you don’t die of old age or sickness
- invulnerable still ages (counter with immortal)
- divine is not godlike but jesuslike. Can perform miracles or even come back to life but has limited power. Not immortal, not invulnerable
You’ll have a nice, long life followed by countless aeons witnessing the slow heat death of the universe
When the time comes, I’ll teleport inside a black hole where I will be frozen in time , thus rendering me essentially dead
shapeshifting teleportation and electricity control sure why not
You can now freely move shale.
lmao
Easy: Attractive Female, Attractive Male and implants.
“What kind of implants?”
“Yes.”
Vibrating hand.
This is so imbalanced and vague.
People used to go full on Rainman designing these CYOAs.
HeroMaker3
What exactly are divine powers? Are you basically the blue dude from Watchmen?
1 level 2 and 2 level 1 Cleric spells
I can’t even Remove Disease?! Fuck that shit!
Yeah, that one could easily include all the others and more
Is that… Cartman?
Episode Fun with Weapons, I think was the name. It’s about the boys being obsessed with anime warriors and their weapons. This is the anime persona of Cartman.
It was probably one of the funnier episodes. Highly recommend!
🎶 Let’s fighting love! 🎶
The religion is Greganism. Greg believes in Ferraris and Skittles.
Ever drink Bailey’s from a show?
The religion is Shinto and you gain the powers of a kappa
divine is religion based. like spawning 6 arms and dividing oceans. powering things up by blessing and being able to seal or banish evil.
dr. manhatten is physics based. he could maybe do similar things, but his powers are not magical. he can’t force a spirit to stay in a piece of armor or things like that.
A very interesting explanation. Totally enjoy the physics aspect! Maybe that can ne the radiation power??
teleport, size manipulation, super smell. i am constantly teleporting into the rectums of famous actresses and experiencing ego death as their farts wash over me and erase all other sensations. i don’t even remember my name or how long I’ve been doing this for. all i know is my mission. i am the fartshifter
Attractive male, insanely rich, intellect.
Y’all have fun being superheroes. I’m gonna enjoy the fuck out of life.
Why would you pick intellect if you wanted a good time? Isn’t ignorance bliss?
Yes but that haven’t received the intelligence power yet so they don’t know that
There’s no rules that says having powers mean you have to be a superhero
You could also be a supervillain… >:)
Aww, cute sad walrus emoji
Immortal, invulnerable, teleport. I can be where I want to be, when I want to be, until the end of time.
I recently realized how much I say my password in my head while typing it. For me, I’d swap invulnerable with telepathy and steal all the passwords!
But you age.
Even if “immortality” is the sucky kind, invulnerability kind of implies that you’re immune to the aging process.
The fact that invulnerability is on the list strongly implys that “immortality” just means agelessness.
Can’t wait to spend trillions of years floating in the vacuum of space or crushed inside a black hole while unable to die. Immortality is the worst possible curse, not a super power.
