Christopher R Taylor Posted January 29, 2017 Report Share Posted January 29, 2017 Every so often people ask what superpowers you'd want if you could have one, and often I say things like healing or flight but as I've gotten older, my desires have gotten simpler. Here's my build: Full Life Support rPD 10 rED 10 0 END Cost strength and all movement. That's enough. Never get tired, never get sick, never get hungry, never get old. Never need to sleep. Imagine how much you could get done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zslane Posted January 29, 2017 Report Share Posted January 29, 2017 rPD 30, rED 30, LS: Immune to diseases and toxins Basically the physical invulnerability of Colossus. This hasn't changed for me since I could first answer this question in 1981. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cantriped Posted January 30, 2017 Report Share Posted January 30, 2017 If the limitation doesn't limit you, it isn't worth any points... not that I expect you'll mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tjack Posted January 30, 2017 Report Share Posted January 30, 2017 15 pts Wealth, 20 Comeliness, LS Aging and Disease Physical Limitation: enormous genitals That limitation means that no woman is willing to sleep with you because it would hurt them too much. Is that what you REALLY want? Also you all forgot Regeneration in case you get hit by a bus or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Surrealone Posted January 30, 2017 Report Share Posted January 30, 2017 28 INT (18 CP) Eidetic Memory (3 CP) Lightning Calculator (3 CP) LS - Longevity: 200 year lifespan (1 CP) ----- Total - 25 CP Unlike you folks who want to live forever, I don't. I would, however, like to live long enough to make a marked difference in the world ... and to have the raw mental capacity and talents to be able to do so. The above 25 CP is enough to do so. Wealth and power can easily follow with that set of abilities given 200 years in which to ply those abilities ... but I think my preference would be to focus on the betterment of mankind once my own relatively minor fiscal and social needs were satisfied. 15 pts Wealth, 20 Comeliness, LS Aging and DiseasePhysical Limitation: enormous genitals Since that's a limitation, it implies big cajones ... and nothing else. *snicker* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GCMorris Posted January 30, 2017 Report Share Posted January 30, 2017 I currently have the ability to end a conversation when I enter it. I can also make people leave the room at the same time. What would this power be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm having trouble figuring who the character is. Due to the video in the original post, I think it's supposed to be one of the Immortals from Highlander.

Tasha Posted January 31, 2017 Report Share Posted January 31, 2017 Is that Nightverine? I'm having trouble figuring who the character is. LOL No, I mean she's one of my favorite PCs. She's a martial artist with Wormhole based Teleportation. My Second favorite character is a Metal Shaper that uses a Nanate swarm for her abilities.

Matt the Bruins Posted January 31, 2017 Report Share Posted January 31, 2017 I suppose I should say something like Healing or Transforms to cure disease, but if I'm being truthful I'd selfishly want fairly robust Flight and enough rPD, rED, and Life Support to counteract its effects on my body.

Christopher Posted January 31, 2017 Report Share Posted January 31, 2017 Recently I am hoping for a superpower that is decidedly dark. Too many people in Europe recently deny the Holocaust. Or that Vaccination is nessesary. Or that slavery was bad. Or that feminism is a nessesary thing (as long as not taken to extremes). I want to transform them so they would fit precetly as victim of that time (jew, black, people suffering from a pandemic, women). And then send them back to the time they believe was full of "gumdrops and icecream". The power would pull them back just before they are about to die/get raped/similar horrible stuff. As I see it, two powers. Possibly linked: "You fit right in..." would be a Transform. It would change the looks, clothing and ability to speak to fit right in as a victim of that time. "...now go there" would send them back to that time to experience how wrong they were firsthand. Many here would go for Movement, UAA (especially EDM, UAA) but I am not a friend of that. I feel like a Transform could do that as well (the reasoning is that time/space/dimension coordinates are about as important as not being a frog or a stone statue).

Christopher R Taylor Posted January 31, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2017 A little bit of regen would be good, with "heal lost limbs." 1 per day is fine. In a month you can go from a limbless torso to completely healthy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
