Poll: Forget the names. If you could change or augment one part of your body, what would it be?

[samgdawg]

I've always been fascinated by berserkers. As such, I would alter myself for an ability to voluntarily enter a berserker rage. And hey, as long as we're talking about a contraption that already goes against most any rule of logic and reality, let's go ahead and make it where I can swap between the two mental states at will. Either that or an alteration allowing for improved advancement of intelligence and exponentially easier bodybuilding including reflex and speed.

 

[KazeAizen]

Give me Long John Silver's arm from Treasure Planet and we can call it good. Seriously he is one of the most awesome cyborgs in cinema

 

[FalloutJack]

New eyes.

Seriously, I'm so sick of wearing glasses. I would love to have robot eyes that won't deteriorate from staring at the sun too long... (I was a dumb kid).

Plus, you could get awesome features, like zoom, or night vision, built right into your eyes! Goodbye lumpy goggles and high def camera! Now I can spy on people with ease!

Uhh, I mean..

*fwip fwip*

Aaand between you and Grach, I'm now thinking of Kryten and his double-polaroid. Doesn't help that it's from the same episode I referenced for the thread.

I want to modify myself so that I am immune to frostbite and hypothermia while still able to feel the cold. I would be comfortable in below freezing temperatures, but my body apparently isn't.

Given the temperature outside right now, I don't blame you.

The ability to fire lightning bolts from my fingertips when throwing the horns.

I can't even begin to recount all the scenarios in my life where that power would have been incredibly useful. It's too late for me to think of any more interesting input to this topic than that right now

Wait, what horns? Which scenarios? Come back here and explain this one!

 

[Trig0n]

Well it would obviously be a super robot di-

No I'm not quite that immature. Honestly though brain enhancement to be super smart and/or reflex enhancement would definitely be the way to go. Though I think the very first post sorta beat me to the punch on this one.

 

[Dragonpit]

Wings on my back for flight...though I'd also need a tail for control and stability...

 

[Mazza35]

My arms, I would get my arms replaced. With semi skin/metalic bitching looking things. Oh yeah, with the added strength and having machine stillness in my arms/hands would make shooting and a bunch of other shit I do (Manly things) so epic, I'd be like a demi god

 

[stroopwafel]

Regenerative health that also prevents me from aging and the ability to function without sleep. That would be pretty awesome. Dermal stealth cloak would be cool too!

 

[Bloodstain]

Whatever you need to change in your brain so that you can focus extremely well, being able to read the most difficult of texts near crying children, arguing couples, people trying to talk with you etc. without losing any focus, completely shutting other influences from your senses. And being able to focus on your own thoughts, too. General ability to focus.
Try reading Hegel or Merleau-Ponty in a loud and lively city like Berlin...it's a nightmare. Plus, my focus is already bad enough.

If that's impossible, I'd like better eyes -- my view is good but I would like night vision, zoom,perception of a wider spectrum...sonar eyes (like in Deus Ex)? Yes please.

 

[Drummodino]

Anything that would let me fly. Wings, fold out jetpack, whatever, I want to soar with the birds dammit!

 

[Ix Rebound]

in order of preference

1: near instantaneous reaction time
2: cybernetic arms, something cross between Adam Jensen and Go Go gadget
3: Rocket feet and hands, Iron man style
4: super speed

 

[Jaximus Decimus]

I want the full Wolverine package. Regenerative healing, reinforced endoskeleton, enhanced strength, bitchin' haircut. The hand knives I could do without. Something about slathering a knife in someone else's blood then sheathing it inside my body is somehow unappealing to me.

 

[SonofaJohannes]

Indestructible teeth for me, I recently had a little popcorn-related accident and would like for it never to happen again.

 

[FalloutJack]

or deadpool level of regenerating health. without the cancer of course.

Uhh, you don't want that one. I mean, people have tried and it seems the only reason it's stable for Wade is because of the cancer. Everyone else ends up mutating funny, degrading, being in constant freaky pain, etc. Black Tom apparently had some of this because he replaced his hand with Deadpool's, especially the pain.

 

[Secretarial-Humbug]

A safe augmentation upon my brain, so that I could access 100%
of its capacity, thus positively affecting the rest of my body.

Barring that, augment my voice so that I could impersonate any accent
or person with relative ease.

Crazy option: a skeleton which functions in the same way as
a muscular system.

This is related to your poll title, rather than the meat of the thread. I thought much like you, until I saw this:

Spoiler

Ma-Ti gets all the ladies

 

[DkLnBr]

Enhanced senses. This would allow for earlier reactions and better planning.

Damn, that was my answer. Now what do I say? actually a bionic penis would be pretty fun, but I could probably use a better heart, and I wouldn't mind being stronger/faster, but quicker reflexes would come in handy, though my memory is terrible so I could use an upgrade. Could I say "everything" as my one part?
