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

Bah, thanks to my years as a shut-in tech dweeb I already have lots of Gadgets, a Feral appearance, and I Super Smell.
Divine Powers
Immortality
Phasing
Bitches think they can bury me in a cave behind a boulder? I don't fucking think so.
That said, I do need more detail on "power syphoning." Seems like a no-brainer if you get to keep them.
Magic can accomplish all of this, so I choose that
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?)
Why doesn't "Divine Powers" include everything else? 🤷
"Divine Powers" means you can make anything Fabulous! with just a glance.
Attractive male, insanely rich, teleport.
I will no longer be single, I can vote in the US (only the rich get to vote with SuperPACs), I have a low carbon footprint
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.
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.
Feral. Radioactive. Submariner.
Sealab 2021.
Attractive female, insanely rich, and teleport. I'll have a gf, have money to finance my 1000 hobbies and help others, and never have to stand an hour in a crowded bus trying to hold in a fart again.
Attractive Male, Immortal, Divine Powers.
Insanely rich, Intellect, Invulnerable. You could totally change the world - you would be like Elon Musk with a brain. When the shitty oligarchs throw you out a window, you just bounce.
Well, immortality and invulnerability are a definite to deal with some existential dread.
Then I suppose insanely rich because you're going to need a lot of money to make investments on a forever time scale.
I feel like teleportation gets you an ability that makes money just fine. Hell, just invulnerability makes you valuable for cleaning up nuclear accidents like Chernobyl and Fukushima.
Shape Shifter, Teleport, Insanely rich.
- Be anyone/anything I want to be
- Go wherever I want instantly
- and if i need anything else, just buy it with money
Do you need money if you can just teleport into a bank vault, grab some gold, and teleport out? :p
Am I misunderstanding siphon powers? Add invisibility and super speed... Aita?
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
Give me arbitrary code execution and privilege escalation in the simulation we live in and I'll be satisfied.
I already have autism, PTSD and depression. I don't know if I can handle more.
Just give me being attractive and fuck the rest.
Submariner necromancy size manipulation. Hoards of tiny zombie whales and giant zombie plankton.
Psionics (a la Legion/David Haller), Divine Powers (more Legion reality-warping fun), Immorality (until the Heat Death of the Universe). I've got a lot I want to do, starting with planetary reform and cultivation of the species.
If I'm a plural system do we get to pick 3 for each of us? :)
If it's one set for everyone, I'm going with Shapeshifting, Healing, and the third kind of depends on how this stuff works.
Shapeshifting I'd take even if I was only allowed one power. I'd finally have a body that fits. Several of them, in fact. Some might even be human. We could swap between us physically, and turning into stuff for a while just sounds fun.
Healing because if I don't pick it I'm eventually going to regret it. Shapeshifting might already let me fix any damage that isn't incapacitating or instantly lethal, but that only applies to my own body. I'd want to be able to help others, too.
For the third power... Magic could mean a lot of things, including many on this list. Maybe it's a "jack of all trades, master of none" kind of deal, which I'd be fine with. A bunch of spells that cover a wide range of situations but aren't as strong as specializing in a single power.
Teleport is really appealing. Lots I can do with it if I can take people or things with me, or set up something long-range that doesn't require line of sight. If it also allows me to create permanent portals then we're really going to have fun.
Or I could take Invulnerability to remove that "incapacitating or instantly lethal" weakness and really lean into being some kind of unstoppable healer. Divine Powers? Depending on what that does, it could replace Healing while also giving a bunch of other benefits. Hell, if it lets me resurrect people too, and I also take Invulnerability, then I'm basically an emergency respawn point for the entire community.
What if I already have the power of being attractive 😎
Do I have to waste a choice to keep it?
And does immortality come with eternal youth?
Invulnerability, Invisibility, Psychic
