What super powers would you want (maximum 4)

[2xDouble]

*snip*

They, uh... already did something like that. Google "Ben 10".

My powers would be:
1) The ability to switch places with anyone I want at any time. (not that sissy mind-switching or reality-bending "life swap" junk, no. I move to where they are and they move to where I was simultaneously and instantly).

2) a video game-like radar/map ability that detects any person in the area and their general attitude towards me (i.e. friendly, hostile, neutral), as well as any other hostile entities (i.e. angry animals) I will also be able to expand its range with concentration.

3) Perfect spacial sense (like an immunity to disorientation). I could spin around all day and walk a perfectly straight line. (I'll explain why later)

4) I don't really need a 4th power, so I'll leave it blank in case I need something else... perhaps a utility belt or Spidey Sense reflexes...

Here's how this works. I can be anywhere I want at any time, as long as someone else is already there. (Sorry, random person who paid for their ticket to ComicCon or PAX). This also means I'd be nearly invincible because I can switch places with anyone attacking me, and if they get "clever" on me and try to use my switch against me, I can always switch with something or someone else (powerful without being too OP). The perfect spacial sense would allow me to switch really, really fast with many opponents. Being in many different positions essentially at once would be dizzying, (think of it like going from a dark movie theater into bright sun over and over again), except for me. Also, it's clever and original, suck it comic book heroes! (lol kidding!) (PS, I already filed copyrights for this character.)

In order of importance, most vital to least vital:


1. Super-regeneration (nigh-immortality and no aging, think "Wolverine")
When almost nothing can kill you for good, eventually you'll get what you want. Getting shot in the head would suck though, especially without an adamantium skull. Or so it's implied in some sources. Other sources treat brain injury as nothing to worry about.

2. The power of the character played by Nicholas Cage in "Next" (I don't even know how to call it, it's not exactly "just" precognition, it's so much more than that)
It's basically "luck on demand", except that you mentally envision all possible outcomes and then pick the "lucky" one for you. If it wasn't for the no-aging bit of #1, this would have been my first pick instead. Works great with #1, to avoid situation where you could really, really die, or lose your memories (in case that particular vulnerability is included).

3. Eidetic memory (at-will perfect recall of anything ever experienced)
It allows you to make the most of your #2 power, and is overall handy to have "just in case". You'll never need to make notes, you never have to waste time reading a book (just briefly look at each page and you can remember anything in it until the end of time, since, hey, you're practically immortal, and you can evade situations where you lose your memory or life), and so on and so forth.
This, combined with #2 borders on actually being for most practical intents and purposes omniscient, except other people's thoughts (because all intentions that result in actions, those you can predict thanks to #2 and #3).

And last, either
4a. Telepathy (think "Charles Xavier")
alternatively
4b. Green Lantern Power (?Ring?)
or just plain old
4c. Telekinesis
maybe even the overkill
4d. Space/Time manipulation ("reality warping", "omnipotence" or whatever you want to call it).

Each of these last four possible choices for power number four works nicely, but are really just the icing on the cake.
The first three powers are really more than enough to create an already overpowered entity (which is as good as eternal and omniscient from a practical standpoint). If you add #4d to the mix, it's indistinguishable from a god. And not just any god, but a scary-strong one too.

[Half-BloodPrince]

-All jedi powers. (Shush this counts as one)
-Teleportation.
-Shape Changing.
-Ability to read people's thoughts and manipulate them.

 

[Crispee]

I assume were immune to the otherwise crippling side effects of our abilities as well?

In which case, SpaceTime Manipulation (which in theory is several powers at once), Healing Touch, Invisibility, Telepathy.

 

[FenrirsWilly]

The ability to reach through any kind of electronic device interface (punch people through a telephone or computer monitor)

i would get the powers to slow down time teleport be super agile and super intelligent

manipulate time / gravity (since they are related, one effects the other)
eternally healthy
intergalactic travel
the power of creation (presuming you could "control" it)

 

[blithefox]

1) The ability to summon and control lightning
2) Super Agility
3) Super Speed
4) Super Jump
Then I'd fight people with a pole arm. Oh yes.

[Scranton111]

Shape-shifting would be my number 1.. Beyond that, I guess time control would be cool. To be honest I'd be happy enough with just those 2, 4 seems a bit spoiling ^^; I can't decide on another 2, so will just leave it there..
