The perfect ending one. You can see all possible paths to take, every move you make being the one you determine to be the best.

You never lose anything.

Of all the superpowers out there, telekinesis is the one that has fascinated me the most. I don't want conventional telekinesis, though, since that would just mean an extra, invisible hand of mine. I dividing this one power into three superpowers:

Microtelekinesis, the ability to fully monitor, understand and control microscopic, e.g. atomic and molecular phenomena. A lot of scientific fields, especially medical, would benefit highly from such powers. One with such ability, would make wise choice studying cellular physiology, because she will eventually find the key to longevity.

Macrotelekinesis, the ability to fully control objects larger and heavier than myself without physical exertion. Someone with such powers would be the greatest constructor and transporter ever known.

Telekinesis development, i.e. the ability to improve my telekinetic precision and multi-tasking. It'd be a shame having microtelekinetic powers, only to find out I can only move one atom at a time. Or with macrotelekinesis, having a way too large margin of error when placing down large objects.

Forlong said:
X-ray vision. No prizes for guessing what I'd use it for.
I don't want any, and besides, you'd only be able to see their skeletons. Also, everyone you'd see when you've got x-ray vision activated would die from radiation poisoning.

Either: Super strength/Invincibility I mean you'd be practically unstoppable a wrecking ball.

Or: Intangibility. You can phase threw objects, people, nothing could touch you plus no where would be off limits to you.

The ability to see through the veil of time. With this power I would be able to see anything that has ever happened in the past, and anything that could possibly happen in the distant future and will happen in the near future. I would be able to see to the beginning of time then to trillions of years into the future faster than you could blink. I would be able to learn from long dead masters, and create technology eons ahead of its time. Plus I could make a fortune gambling.

The ability to interface with machines with my mind. I don't know what you'd call that, cyber-telepathy? Well whatever, that way I could make computers and other machines do whatever I want them to do just by thinking about it.

I'd have one of the most powerful, useful and dangerous fictional superpowers of all time.

I give you


I always have trouble explaining just what his power his, it's something you have to see for your self to understand just how awesome it is. However I will post this extract from his profile page hopefully that will give some insight.

Accelerator's ability creates a thin field of AIM around him, which allows him to modify the vector values of anything he touches.

Redirection: He can change the vector values of anything by touch; for example, he kills a Sister clone by reversing the flow of blood inside her body after putting his finger inside her wound. Furthermore, this ability is automatic, so projectiles like bullets or explosives have no effect on him, as they will be redirected, even if he is unaware of their presence. He must consciously allow things like gravity and light to affect him. It is because of his ability that he has an albino appearance, as his "reflection" blocks all unnecessary ultraviolet radiation, thereby preventing the skin from manufacturing melanin. However, if one can find their way "around" his redirection ability(as demonstrated by Touma and Kihara Amata), it is shown to be rather useless, marking Accelerator as a Glass Cannon due to having a strong ability but a somewhat weak body(as Touma/Kihara managed to bring him down to his feet in only around 10-7 blows). Thus far, he has shown the following ways to use his powers:
1.Earth Stomp: Using the vectors behind his feet, he causes a little explosion made of earth and rocks to attack his opponents. In the beginning of the series this was his most common way to attack. He can Accelerator's vector manipulation has a variety of uses, including crushing the earth around him

also use this to propel himself forward, as seen in the Sisters Arc, or during his schuffle with Awaki, seemingly extend the applied force to other surfaces as well from the initial stomp, such as shattering multiple windows of a building nearly. (Though Accelerator was offscreen, thus it is not yet proven if it can work that way.) If that's the case, the maximum range that Accelerator can extend it to is unknown.
2.Vector Shooting: By touching an object, he can use his ability to change the magnitude of vectors he comes in contact with, such as seen during his fight with Kamijou Touma in the Sisters Arc. This allows him to change the vectors of objects in such a way that he can turn them to projectiles. An example of the use of this ability is in his fight with Touma, when he lightly kicked a rock to make it shoot like a bullet, or when he stomped on train rails to push them out of their sockets, and lightly knocked on them to make those rails rain upon Touma. This ability also allows him to mimick superhuman strength, as he once used it to pick up and throw a building.
3.Wind Control: He can re-vector the surrounding winds and force them to congregate at a single point creating an extremely high velocity wind, but it had flaws like when the wind is moving in an abnormal direction or when his vector calculations are disturbed by sound as showed as with Kihara in the Volume 13.
4.Plasma Storm: He can even create plasma by further compressing the wind at high speeds in a single point.
5.Kinetic Blast: Shown in Volume 13, he takes control of the planet's rotational vectors and transfers an enormous amount of that energy into one attack. This attack used up so much of the planets rotational energy that it slowed down the the earth's rotation by about 5 minutes.
6.Brain Hacking: In accord to him by redirecting the electrical signals of the human body he can take 'control' over them and rewrite the memories and personality of the people as showed with Last Order in the Vol.5.
7.Flight: By controlling the wind around him he creates about 4 high-powered tornadoes behind him to allow him to fly. Showed in Vol.8 and 15. He is also able to redirect the vectors of gravity upon him.
8.Reverse Engineering: Shown in Volume 22, chapter 11; The Accelerator has stated that as long as he has experienced it, he can analyze forces unknown to him as long as his body has been in contact with it, by following the vectors that have been applied(almost similar to a vaccine shot's case). He used this ability to understand Aiwass' "inexplicable laws".
9.Bullet Redirection: Shown in Volume 15 in his fight against Saraku. When his gun sight is thrown off in this fight, Accelerator simply pointed the gun at himself then fired, redirecting the bullet to hit his enemy, stating that his ability was far more precise than any gun sight.

The best of it is he has a few weaknesses, so it's not entirely overpowered just really strong.

The ability to successfully predict lottery numbers would be all the power that I need.

If that isn't available, the ability to punch people in the junk over the internet would be a close second. Not having to endure trolls and morons would be a nice consolation prize.

Well, obviously the power I'd choose if that question isn't qualified at all would be omnipotence. Only an idiot (or a moral coward) would choose otherwise.

Now, if we make it fair - so each power is actually balanced against one another, and massively overpowered ones either simply aren't an option or their drawbacks really ruin your day, like if you pick omnipotence then your vulnerabilities are the colours yellow AND blue, or you're still omnipotent while you're dreaming and thus the first time you get a nightmare you'll be eaten in your sleep by gibbering horrors from the obsidian darkness between the worlds (and/or the stay-puft marshmallow man) - then I'd probably go with the power to split myself into clones if the power level we're working on is relatively low, or the power to stop time if it's relatively high.

But yeah, if you don't say something about balance, the superpower question is a bit exploitable.

Reality warping

The power to alter anything and anything, from turning bunnies into lions to making it rain penises.
Anyone guess what I would do with it?

I want perfect shapeshifting. When I say perfect I mean if I transformed into an animal my body would change to match that animal while my mind and everything else would stay the same. It would also mean that it wouldn't matter how big or small it is I would be able to change without any repercussions. I could take the form of inanimate objects but still move and all that.

that would be fun

In this modern world I could go far with Magnetic abilities (IE Magneto/Dr. Polaris). That'd be fantastic.

There was a thread a while back with a choice of 'perks' you would take if you could.

I chose 'Always at 100%' (which really is a superpower) because:

1. No need to eat
2. No need to sleep
3. When I reach my physical peak, I can't degrade physically
4. No mental degradation or memory loss either
5. Can't get sick.
6. Can't get wounded.

I would want to be able to bio-engineer my body, shape shifting in a sense.

I would be able to turn parts of my body from claws, to tendrils and anything in between.
Hell with this power i would be able to adapt to any situation; i need to get across a deep ravine, i would sprout wings, or shift my legs to have more jumping power.
And the best part of this power? I would be able to create other life forms, to do my bidding.

Although i would need to eat a horrendous amount to keep up with my power.... but that wouldn't be a problem in the long run.

Defiantly the ability to repel anything. It is versatile so I can use it to help a lot of people.
