I'm a little confused as to why this got locked: http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/18.62974#541690. But oh well never mind, I'd pick invisibility, because I'm a bit dull like that.

Immortality on the other hand allows for mostly the same things as invisibility, just in a more brutal way. I can see someone immortal spending (the larger part of) his life fighting in an army for large sums of money. Someone immortal would probably crave for the power of invisibility most of the time. Also, immortality isn't going to help you even the slightest bit if you end up in jail somehow (which you probably will because such a power attracts attention).
yeah... but you can take as many steriods as you like and not die...
and you have plenty of time to work on that...

i reckon you could break out :>

Invisibility is just to sweet to pass up, flight's a close second. Being invisible would just open the door to so much mischief and flying would so beat having to drive. Magnopath should be an option too.

Telekinesis. Being able to throw things about just like a jedi/biotic would just be super bad ass!

normally id go with animal transformation
but i like telekinesis too,
throwing everything around you at the enemy with your mind is awesome
also you could use the power to throw shockwaves with your mind

What about the ability to have complete and entire control over time? you could make yourself younger so you could be immortal, as well as making anybody you like immortal, you can freeze time and cause mischief which is better than invisibility, and you could relive and/or change major points in your life, and if you don't like it you can rewind and stop yourself from doing it.

Telekenises or Pyrokenises. Both allow flight while simultaneously providing sufficient awesome meta human powers.

However, Telekenises works on a larger scale than Pyro does. Levitation, matter manipulation, etc, all come with telekenises. Pyrokenises is fire. Telekenises is... everything.

EDIT: While tempting, imoortality is a bog no. Why? it would be so boring. There would be a point when everyone you loved has died. then everyone on the planet would die. then the planet would be engulfed by the sun. after about a billion years I would want to die. floating in space for an eternety is not only hard to comprehend but also boring.

As for invisiblility... you could get into any club, any building, for free. You could spy on people, and also sneak up on peoolpe and kill them without them ever seeing your face. The only real uses for this power would be a military application or a cheapskate who doesn't like paying to get into places.

EDIT#2: I would take time manipulation in a second. It would be so fun just to freeze time and mess with people then start it up again. I think everyone wants this power though as everyone has made a mistake or two they would love to undo.

Because this poll rather shortsightedly doesn't include the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception...I'll go with telekinesis. Flight would probably be more fun, but I can see TK coming in handy more often.

Yeah, that Power Cosmic thing looks good. Basically you'd be Yog-Sothoth, the one-in-all and all-in-one, the key and the gate, master of time and space. But I'd like to be omniscient (all-knowing) because then you would know how to acheive all other super-powers. Telekinesis would be nice, you could start a cult! Not that I would, but you could if you wanted to.

Telekinesis all the way, because, logically, you can do anything with it. If you were powerful enough, you would, in theory, even be able to affect matter at the molecular level, resulting in you being, for all intents and purposes, a god.

Flight is unnecessary, because if you're telekinetic you can use that to be able to fly; you don't need wings. And anyway, biologically, it's impossible for humans to fly, because our back and shoulder muscles aren't anywhere near strong enough.

Immortality would suck. Watch Highlander to see why.

Telekenises: Sounds cool and all but it makes me feel exposed somehow, it would still be my 2nd choice though ^^

Flight (wings): Hell no, way to cold in the sky and besides... wings, not really my thing.

Immortality: well it is the best out of the five for me, i mean... I don't like dieing. the downside is that it will be problematic once you've done about everything there is to do.

Invisiblity: no, that's just lame in my opinion, impossible to use in crowded places and well... why would i want it?

Pyrokenises: What can i do with this? I never heared of healing flames before and well i'm no serial killer so what's the use? (well unless i would start smoking, then it would have a use)


It's a shame my own all time favorite ain't here. Illusions, I just love those. C'mon, you can do about anything without being cought. It gives you an edge at work etc. etc. And well... it's just awesome
