    Attractive female, attractive male, invisibility

    I’m the most beautiful creature on earth, and only I decide who gets the privilege of knowing it

    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.

        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.

    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!

      I’m trying to work out what that is. The ability to, uh, do everything on that list? If so, I will also take 3 scoops please.

        You know, standard stuff like food transmutation, turning into a swan to get laid and having fire come out your mouth when you get mad.

          Maybe it comes with the burden of cosmic knowledge, so all the fun human-level stuff doesn’t seem worth doing

    Doesn’t divine powers mean you can get anything on that list?

    Its weird that not a lot of people decided to choose it.

      I think it’s closer to Level 2 Priest compared to Yahweh.

      But then how many abilities will end up crummy for balancing purposes? It’s like “pick a sword, bow, or gun to defend yourself”, but you don’t have the strength for a European longbow and your pirate-era flintlock has enough spread to hit the neighbor’s dog.

      What if teleportation is 2 inches, or flight is 3 feet? What if invisibility means light goes straight through your corneas and you end up blind? What if immortal just means only your brain will survive??

      Nevermind

    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 😅

    Teleportation, invulnerability, siphon abilities.

    And then I teleport to everyone in the thread.

    Unless someone has teleportation, intellect, and siphon abilities. Then they might outwit me and find someone invulnerable before I do. But I might find someone intellectual before they do. And then it becomes a race.

    Comic adaptation when?

    That time I got 3 superpowers from a Lemmy post, but so did everyone else? Yuusha no Skill Siphon

    • 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

    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?
