Undead for the win! Grrr! Brains! I mean, I feel like a zombie already so it wouldn't be a hard transition. And then I get to snack on some brains! Since zombies traditionally derive characteristics from their living existence I would probably be an inwardly angry, still sentient monstrosity who despises his fellow shamblers for their mindless, group mentality and hope for a day when we could all learn to think logically and use our cunning to get hold of some really tasty brains. And no matter how much I would reject my brethren they would still happily follow me about regardless for reasons I cannot fathom. I mean WOULDN'T fathom. Because that isn't what the world is like at all. No sirry.
I'm going phoenix style ressurection on this one. I'd love to go through the school system again with an entire life time of knowledge. I could be snarky to the teachers, and I could actually out-fight bullies.
Instant regeneration. It'd stop old age as well, so it makes the first choice worthless. Although if we're looking at this realistically (which isn't too likely) you'd need to get the mass from somewhere to regen. Which means you'd have a hell of an appetite. Plus, I'm sure there are ways of getting killed with instant regeneration.
Instant regen just has so many unpleasant possibilities for endless torture/being trapped in a situation where you SHOULD die from pain alone and can't that I can't stomach the thought.
Res, plz.
Res, plz.
Anyone with regeneration is cooler than anyone with invulnerability- like Wolverine or SabertoothLoremaster P said:Invunerability, any of the other ones you still hurt when you take damage. So not taking damage at all is the best choice to me
Infinite Resurrection assuming I resurrect at a certain age ie. not going through childhood again.
Otherwise I'd go with instant regenaration.

Of your choices, I'd say infinite resurrection. Sure, it'll suck from time to time, but it could be super cool in the long run... presuming you didn't gain any enemies who also had your ability.
I created a Non-Player Character (for the White Wolf Storyteller system) that did that. When it died it possessed and resurrected the nearest dead body, restoring it as (basically) a Vampire. It incorporated that persons' memories to the being's existing memory. The process also caused the being to mesh with the persons' personality, favoring the personality of the recently deceased. (Close friends/lovers/family would not be fooled, of course. It would trigger an "uncanny valley" response.)
My actual choice would be through cyberization or digitalization. Transhumanism all the way.

Naturally, I wasn't suggesting an augmentation to your biological life, but rather that to access to such a power would grant you access to greater technology. Also, your 4-dimensional extension would be changed, given the right conditions, such that you could, technically, not cease to be, but rather be in several times at once.
Since we're assuming immortality, I'm willing to say that we've got access to an unrestricted form of time travel.

gotta love how Deadpool can get stabbed in the head and retain all his memories.FreelanceButler said:
