If you could have any superpower ...

If you could have any superpower, what would it be and why?

The power to be invisible. Oh, the things I could do if I were invisible. >:P

Instantaneous teleportation is definitely the superior superpower!

ZA WARUDO! The ability to stop time would be awesome. I love messing with people. Also for more practical reasons I could study and get work done and spend my time on something good like video games.

Think of all the stuff we could do, and how we would never be tired. Beautiful.

If I didn't need to sleep, so many things would be better...

Mind control would be awesome for a while, but I think it would be boring eventually. Although just mind-reading could be pretty damn cool.

Either mind control or mimicry. Sure, flight or superspeed or something would be great, but compared to the power attainable through either of my preferences, they are insignificant.

The power to animate objects. Seriously, that would be fantastic. Also, the power to control people/beings through touch, like that chick in X-Men Origins. :D

I agree that instant teleportation is one of the superior ones, but I would have to know how it would work. Would it function like Nightcrawler's who teleports to a dimension then his destination and would be limited by the range of which he can teleport which looks to be normally limited to a 3 mile range? Would their be a chance I could die from teleporting to a spot I already know, but it may be occupied at the time.

Let's say I wanted to teleport back on the porch where my first home used to be, but it just so happens at the time that someone was standing in that exact same spot or a bulldozer was there. If I teleport there would I die from trying to materialize in an occupied space or would my body sense it and it would automatically teleport me to an unoccupied space? There's also stealth to consider. Would I have this power in the world as it currently is? If so it would be wise to have a power that could easily be disguise. If my teleport makes a loud popping noise, give off a visual spark, or gives off traceable energy then I risk myself of being exposed every time I use it and I would have to think carefully where I teleport.

Phasing would be a power that could be easily disguised though, but I think it would be a highly dangerous one. If the power activates and stays on by concentration then at certain moments due to being unfocused for a fraction of a second it could kill you. For example you're trying to get past a locked door. You phase your arm through the door so you can reach the lock from the other side. In order to even touch the lock though you have to solidify your hand. While you're trying to do this the smoke alarm goes off throwing off your concentration and half of your arm is cut off since you lost your concentration and ended up canceling your powers.

I think the most useful, easiest to conceal, and least dangerous one would be divine regeneration.

You're far too involved for this thread.

To control time is to be time itself... or some :bou::bou::bou::bou:. :monster:

I would want the power to shoot $100 bills out of my nose. Never without cash. I would be called Automatic Teller Man.

To eat whatever the smurf I want! I'm mostly useless, but my powers will definitely come in handy one of these days. Let's say that I'm trapped behind a locked door. No problem! I'll just eat my way out through the door! NOM NOM NOM

I'm with the bulk of the people here, definitely teleportation. The benefits of such a thing would be immense, and I seriously want this. I mean, sure, I know I can't get it, but damn, I want so much! The things I could do... no more travel costs, for a start, and I could get immense money by either legal (courier/messenger service!) or illegal (banking!) means if the need arised. Ideally, the possibility of teleporting into a wall or mountain would not work if teleportation was perfected. You would 'sense' where you are going before you get there, and thus it would not be an instant process, allowing you to effectively 'reverse' if you get the impression that, you know, you're going to die instantly at the other end.

But yeah. The main benefit for me would be the ability to meet anyone I wanted whenever I wanted. The travel/money/whatever would be great, but to simply teleport to the door of any one of your houses and knock - I'm not so rude as to simply appear in your house uninvited, after all - would be ideal.
