The Super Power Conundrum

[Drakmorg]

I'd go with mind control.
The downside would be that I could be easily manipulated, even by the least charasmatic person there is. Which really isn't that much of a change since I'm easily talked into doing stuff anyway.

 

[SnowCold]

Power of absolute charsima [can make people do anything if I ask them to, no mind control]
the curse will be that it will work even if I was kidding [Ex: If I say: "bite me" you will bite me]

*looks at avatar*
Code Geass is taking over my mind

 

[SnowCold]

What if my superpower was to know every bit of information in the universe and understand any and all concepts perfectly from the start?

Your curse would be that you would not be able to spread the knowledge, as no other human being would be able to comprehend you, no?

As for myself: the power to let any woman fall in love with me. The opposite 'curse'? No man will ever fall in love with me. Win-win situation, I tell you.

No, the curse is the you can fall in love with any woman.

What would be the counter to laser vision? Not being allowed to use matches? I'd take that.

Or super strength? Super speed? Enhanced intelligence. This only works on powers that replace stuff, or have elemental opposites. Not enhancements or abilities without analogs.

Super strength counter I suppose would be losing the ability to be gentle:
eg. try to pick up the phone you crush it since you're too strong

Same deal with super speed, enhanced intelligence may be harder, perhaps you become an insufferable arrogant prick with it?

 

[KapnKerfuffle]

The ability to have sex with any girl I want.

The curse: buying them breakfast the next morning!

My superpower would be that I can decide the length of my facial hair and normal hair. Can someone please tell me what would kill me?

cutting it manually?

 

[Lord_Ascendant]

so my power to control shadows would mean i'd have to stay in light forever? thats kind of lame and useless.
