For items, to be honest all I want is a Green Lantern power ring.  Cheesy

But if you want something original, I did go to this museum once and there was this ring with a very cool stone on it. It looked very icy and cold, with a blue streak running through the middle. I always imagined it gave the user the power to control water, ice, and freezing temperatures.

In case you're wondering, yes I did buy it (it was only a few bucks). I wonder if I still have it somewhere.

Would you rather have the superpower...

...to grow x6 larger (36'+/-) gaining extra toughness, strength, etc.

or

...to shrink to 1/6th (6"+/-) retaining normal human strength...so could leap like crazy, strikes focused to a small spot, etc.

(comicbook physics apply to both)

How small is that?

I don't do numbers...

If it's anything like Ant-Man, I'd choose that power.

I'd choose to have the ability to transform into anything I want for as long as I wished and back. The power of shape shifting would be awesome. Plus, it'd save on the costs of cosplay.

That and the Sith inside of me would probably turn into the fears of the people that caused me trouble in my childhood and pay some visits.

Pretty sure 1/6th is the 6" reference and I agree that would be fun.

Except that a 6" height is 1/12 of human height (+/-)... You failed math, didn't you, Rel?

So I could be the size of a miniature?

That'll work, I've always wanted to punch someone's eardrum.  Cheesy

A standard human weight/strength value punch focused into a .25"sq spot would be potentially devastating to a mundane or even hardened target Wink

Super power choice!

You have 13 steps and your options are...

Superstrength...you can dead lift over your head 200lbs...for each step this increases by a factor of 2...1 step = 400lbs...each step adds mass weight, +50lbs...so 4 steps = dead lift 1600lbs and gain 200lbs walk around weight.

Flight...you can fly 10mph...each step increases this by a factor of 2...4 steps = 80mph

Toughness...you can absorb damage equal to a mundane human potential before it actually hurts you...each step increases this by a factor of 1...4 steps = 5 human potentials before it starts hurting you (example a shotgun at point blank range would kill a human, at step 0 you can take two of these before death and at step 4 you could take 6 before death)

How would you divide your points?

How would you divide your points?

Strength: 3 steps - 800lbs
Flight: 5 steps - 160mph
Toughness - 5 steps - 6 human potentials.

I originally had flight at 6 steps, but I realized that if I could go that fast I would need more durability in case I hit something haha. Cool idea!

Strength...5 steps...dead lift 2000lbs and weight increased by +250lbs...so for me 450lbs walking around weight

Flight...4 steps...80mph

Toughness...4 steps...6 levels of human potential for damage

Shadow Force? I don't know, I sorta just thought it up. I think Spectre has something like it in the DC comics.. Meh. Basically walking through shadows, using them as portals and conjuring up shadow weapons. I think it sounds awesome. Also, if you have ever played Fable, the Assassins Rush spell, where you cast it towards the enemy and appear behind them.

In our mundane world 1,000 people gain superpowers from a magical event, stars aligning or some such.

You are one if these people.

Your choices are below; one power from each group...

Strength of 100 men 1 hour total per day
Strength of 1000 men 1 minute total per day

Group B
Fly at 10mph as long as you like
Fly at 100mph 1 hour per day total
Fly at 1000mph 1 minute per day total

Group C
Regenerate (heal a bruise or small cut in seconds...heal a gunshot in an hour)
Invisibility (as long as you can hold your breath; 1-2 minutes per hour)
Intangible (as long as you can hold your breath; 1-2 minutes per hour)

Group D
Tough (resist 50% damage/pain all the time)
Shield (100% damage/pain from any source you face directly)
Bulletproof (100% damage from non-energy damage, feel all the pain)
(Non-energy...yes knives and bullets present kenetic energy, we speak of energy being fire, radiation, chemical, etc...hit by a car/cut with a sword/fall off a building all good but it will hurt)

Group E
