What super powers would you want (maximum 4)

[Mr. Elemenopee]

1) Being able to understand any language due to the fact that I can read it in English subtitles

2) Being able to divide myself to be in multiple places at one time and any knowledge or memories I got from my 'clones' would be put back into my combined self

3) The ability to wipe the blood off of my face and then become perfectly okay somehow (I'm looking at you FPS...)

4) The ability to absorb information through osmosis! Especially books! Except however long it would take to read would be the pace that it would transfer!

Well I may not be all mighty or powerful, but I at least would have something pretty useful.

 

[Mechsoap]

1. be the master of time, like stopping time and rewinding time and effect individual time like objects or body parts.

2. telekinesis of highest standard

3. pretty much wizardry like the ones from wow or any other such game

4. being immortal and can bestow others with immortality

 

[sketch_zeppelin]

4? wow...okay.

1) Regeneration, (the kind that also lets you live pretty much forever like wolverine)
2) The power to alter reality with my thoughts
3) Shape shifting
4) No longer having to produce solid waste. (I don't mind pissing but i've always had a problem with shit)

 

[Eremiel]

Timespace control ala Hiro Nakamura
Immortality

Only two I need. Or only three if you count the first as two. In which case.. I dunno.. I guess I'll take Flight as a third/fourth.

 

[WittyInfidel]

1) Portal manipulation
2) Accelerated cell regeneration
3) Hard vacuum support (can survive in deep space without suit, air, ect)
4) Immune to mental/psychic powers

 

[noeggsforyou]

1) Wolverine's healing factor
2) Prof X's psychic abillity
3) Nightcrawlers teleportation
4) Deadpool's abillity to quip or perhapse the abillity to cause everybody in the room to sneeze at the same time

 

[Samurai Goomba]

Ugh, couldn't we limit this to one? Once you get two or more powers, you can just stack 'em all and make yourself Superman without the overt smugness.

If I had to pick ONE power out of EVERY power conceivable (notice how the limitation of one forces tough decisions), I'd pick super speed. It's a versatile ability. Sure, you might be weak yourself, but inertia is very powerful. Vibration is powerful. Not to mention, speed would be a useful power for HELPING PEOPLE. A lot of folks go with the old destructive super powers, but what use is shooting eye beams if you don't want to kill anyone? And none of that "oh, it's like Cyclops, he just knocks people out" nonsense. I don't know what Stan Lee was smoking when he drew somebody LASERING A GUY IN THE FACE and decided that wasn't considered a death blow.

Anyway, with super speed you could take pictures of a crime scene as the crime was happening, snatch all the guns out of the robbers hands (wearing gloves so as to get the prints), remove any masks they might be wearing, turn on the silent alarm, make sure the cameras in the bank are working and then handcuff the robbers to a table. Compare that with super strength, where you punch a guy through a wall and get a life sentence for murder, or invisibility, where your attempt to stop a bank robbery becomes a near-death experience because a fart gave your position away.

Edit: I saw somebody mention ZA WARUDO. I have to say, that'd be probably second in the abilities I'd want. Again, though, time manipulation and super speed could be said to be the same ability. As you speed up, time slows down, etc. It could be said that Za Warudo is not so much an ability that stops time as one that accelerates one's speed to beyond superhuman levels. That would make sense considering the nature of Jotaro's Stand and how it tends to work for him.

 

[Halceon]

1) ability to gain an ability at will
2) ability to lose an ability at will

 

[The Afrodactyl]

4) No body odour

Not sure if you're referencing QI, but if you are, good on you

Indeed I am. Good eye.

 

[Liberaliter]

1) Flight
2) Invisibility
3) Time manipulation
4) Make people do whatever I want

Well that's me set.

 

[therandomguy226]

1. An always active - anybody who will cause me harm within the next 24 hours intentionally or unintentionally instantly dies.

2. Invisibility

3. Teleportation

4. Just because sometimes somebody really needs to die - the ability to make somebody i touch instantly die.
