If you where a Superhero, what one power would you have?
You can answer why if you want.

I'm not 100% sure on this, but right now I'd say flight.

    I cannot answer this without revealing my true identity.

    Captain Britain's brothers' power (I can never remember his first name)

    He manipulates quantum strings to warp reality. I'd turn you all into moose and have you put on a production of Jesua Christ Superstar

    The ability to turn any Popsicle I touch into a grenade, so my smarmy, punny, catch phrase could be, "Let's BLOW this Popsicle stand!" *Explosion sfx*

    Or maybe it would just be the power to make smarmy, punny catch phrases. That's pretty super, right?

    The power of laughter...making people laugh with a single word... able to turn attitude into chuckles with a funny face...it 's a bird it's a plane it's it's ...oh sh&t it's him again!


    ...or maybe the power of perfect punctuation... I'd be awesome in the forums

    The one that ultimately wins out for me is the ability to heal people, probably because I'm very empathic & just naturally want to alleviate pain & suffering. The next one on the list would be a shape shifter because it's just cool as hell & would be loads of fun in the bedroom.:tongue:

    When I watched Hero's my favorite super power was the girl who could watch anything, like martial arts video or a cooking show or whatever it was, and then automatically know how to do it expertly. I would like that super power.

    Luck.

    Think about it - if you're lucky, the bullet would always miss. Or you would get out of the fire unhurt. Or you'd manage to be in the right place at the right time to catch the bad guy.

    Luck will always trump any other super power, I think.

    First off, I'm a nerd. So I take this stuff very seriously....

    Isn't Luck relative? Aren't you lucky if a bullet hits your shoulder or hand instead of your heart?

    I wouldn't have any powers.

    I'd be Robin, Girl Wonder :3

    If I had to choose a power, I'd say speed.

    EDIT: Unless I can make my power to be from Krypton.
    Then I'd have all the powers I needed.

    Depends on what you were trying to accomplish. If your goal is to be stopping the bad guy, presumably your luck would make it so you could do so. At superhuman levels, which to me is what would make Luck a super power, it's reasonable to assume it would stretch so far as to make sure you could continue to BE a superhero. And after that, does it matter that it hit your hand? It's painful, sure, but as long as it's not stopping you, a little pain is manageable.

    To me, luck is about being where you need to be when you need to be there, despite the probability of it, or doing what you need to do when you need to do it, or whatever. Always just in time to do what needs doing, and never being completely stopped from doing it.

    It sounds like a case of the Stone Paradox. Each situation can be seen as lucky with the right perspective. Those situation would ultimately add up to an overall lucky. So, very interesting choice of super power. It's too complex for anybody to be given a straight answer, I think

    Can I call you Domino?

    Were I a superhero, I would want the power of Transformation. That would allow me not only to look any way I want, but also change things from one to another -while trying to keep their fundamental structure. I would clean up the cities of the world, I would potentially cure a few diseases, I would never really produce any garbage (ultimate recycling!), and I would never grow poor or hungry again. Think of it as Alchemy++.

    I'm not a superhero, but I do have a super power.
    I have the ability to transform any healthy dish into a heart clogging calorie bomb.
    My name is The Volumizer.
    My origin is that I was bitten by a radioactive Paula Deen.
