You get to choose one super power you see on fictional media, What do you choose ?

Hammerspace.

Be able to pull out whatever I happen to need at the time from out of nowhere.

Legit, in the real world, wolverine's healing factor is the most useful. Other stuff is about tricks. His kind of healing means no cancer, no Alzheimer's, no strokes, no heart attacks, nada. A long, healthy life free of disease of almost any kind.

The only drawback is the semi-immortality. A long life watching others die would suck hard. It's already bad enough with a regular life span.

The ability to stop time and still interact with the world. Do you know how many books I have on my TBR?

God's omnipotence, from the Bible.

And if that's not ok, then Avatar bending powers.

From Star Trek TNG, I would pick Q's power

shapeshifting

depending on how realistic you want to keep it the benefits go from "pretty nice" to "god amongst men" level:

• backpain? just fix your back
• toothache? grow new teeth
• don't feel like going to the hairdresser? shift into a different hairstyle
• gender problems? forget HRT you can make hormones science doesn't even know about
• aging is no more (if you want)
• donate all the blood you want! hell you can donate your heart if you find a doctor that doesn't ask questions
• mental fog getting you down? just fuckin change your brain. "is it still me after?" don't know don't care now go revolutionize physics Einstein
• grow a tail

the possibilities are endless

Teleporpation including the clothes I’m wearing, whatever I’m bringing, and whoever I’m holding. No more dealing with traffic and parking, can travel anywhere in the world in an instant, can get into concerts/shows without tickets, and lots of other useful conveniences.

I'd take Wolverine's healing powers. I have a few chronic injuries that I wrestle with, and it would be amazing to be free of pain. I'd also be able to be reckless again like I was when I sustained said injuries. It would also be pretty cool to smoke cigars, inhaling them the whole time, eat 10 pounds of bacon each week, and other generally deadly behaviors that could be quite enjoyable.

Dr Manhattan's power, floppin dong and all

Nightcrawler teleportation. Could solve so many problems in this world caused by those who see themselves as untouchable....

id choose super speed,
the kind where you also change your perception of time and everything just seems to slow down compared to you.

as long as i can change that speed, and am not stuck percieving everything at a crawl.

I want a Save and Load feature for myself in regards to reality.

Just make the the founding member of the Q Continuum. I'll fuck off and leave humans alone.

Either Mind Control, like Killgrave’s in Jessica Jones, or if I can cheat a little, Legion’s powers in Legion on FX. He sort of has multiple but they can all basically be chalked up to “mind powers” if we’re being loose with it.

For the record I’m not saying I want to be like Killgrave, he’s a disgusting small monster, but… his abilities are insane. Hard to resist something like that.

As for Legion’s, I mean I’d effectively be a god. Hard to pass that up, tho maybe not if it comes bundled with the schizophrenia.

The immortality of Dorian Gray. Got to have that opt out of life.

As an introvert a Bard loaded with charisma looks like a nice superpower to have, can't be more fictional than that.

The power gauntlet from avengers. Altering the very fabric of reality ? Heck yeah, sign me in. Here we go for my big tiddy goth catgirls harem fantasy, enjoy the ride. (Pun very much intended)

There are a lot of godlike beings who would be objectively the best choice.

"The Force".

Pick things up with my mind? Super speed? Super jumps? Jedi mind tricks? Premonitions? Force Conference Calls? Lightning? Chokes? Healing? Die and come back as a ghost?

Id personally choose power mimicry (the version where you just have to see a person using a power once and can just mimic it at any time) then I'd just build my set of powers

I want the blink ability from the Dishonored video games. Basically a line of sight teleport but still it's awesome in the games.

Do I get the power without possible strings attached? I'd totally be down to be a genie like in Aladdin, so long as I could choose my first "customer". Having to live inside a itty bitty lamp would definitely suck, tho.

Feruchemy

Simple, I choose EveryMan's superpower from The Simpsons

Does it need to be noted as a superpower within the story? If not, I'm saying plot armour. I get to be safe in the knowledge I can't die or be taken out of action unless all plot threads that need me are resolved ahead of time.

There was this one minor character from a book whose title I can't recall (it was about a kid with a dragon eye behind his normal eye and he was transported to a magic realm, i cant remember much else. i read it almost 15 years ago) that can make one wish a day. Every now and again I remember that guy and wonder why he only settled to be a pro soccer player considering his powers lol.

Time control. I think it's the most powerful one.

The ability to see and manipulate emf.

Ever since I saw it in a TMNT comic book, I wanted the ability to bring to life anything I can draw. I could have literally any super power I want and more with this one weird trick.

Spatial/Dimensional magic from most things that have spatial magic in them. It gives you the ability to teleport, create portals, create/use your own inventory, and even teleport to other worlds.

I can't think of a fictional character that has this, but the ability to know, and convey the answer to ANY question.

Dr. Strange.

Sir Patrick Stewart on Extras. Making women's clothes fall off..

Geass from Lelouch.

Gear 5

Probability manipulation can make anything happen. That's the strongest one. Although ofc big risk of tearing up the fabric of reality by messing with small forces probability and just destroying everything by accident.

One single superpower, or a suite of powers that exists within a single character?

Assuming that we're talking conventional media (e.g., not religion), and we're talking about powers that exist within a single character, I'd probably take the powers of a witcher, from Sapkowski's novels. They're not immortal, but they live multiple times longer than a normal human. They're not invulnerable, but they're able to take more physical abuse and heal than any normal person. They're able to use magic in a limited way. They move faster and are stronger than humans. So they're not so far outside of humanity that they can't still blend in with and appreciate humanity.

I feel like most other super powers would quickly lead to intense alienation, because you'd be so far outside of the normal human experience that you'd lose the ability to empathize.

Immortality.

Don't even try all the lame excuses about why it is a bad thing. You know who comes up lame excuses? People who are mortal.

• I will never get bored
• I will accept that everyone I know will eventually die
• I am not worried about being trapped in a hole or something because fuck it I will just carry around a collapsible shovel
• I am not worried about heat death because I will just solve entropy Asimov style.
• If they sentence me to life imprisonment I will just wait them out. Also point out to the judge who sentences me that eventually I will get out since no civilization lasts forever
• And if humanity goes extinct I will just remake humanity from my cache of stored fertilized eggs and artificial wombs that I had like a billion years to get working.

Can I get hit by a truck and go to a better reality? The bar is set pretty low.

Use 100% of my human brain capacity, instead of this stupid 2% that we have now
