Just make the the founding member of the Q Continuum. I'll fuck off and leave humans alone.
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.
Nightcrawler teleportation. Could solve so many problems in this world caused by those who see themselves as untouchable....
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
With gender dysmorphia wouldn't it be better just to morph your whole body to align with your gender identity instead of just the hormonesp p
yea probably, i said that cos it funny :3
I want the blink ability from the Dishonored video games. Basically a line of sight teleport but still it's awesome in the games.
I was going to say teleportation as in Jumper but going instantly to a place outside your field of view seems like trouble waiting to happen. Blink is already good enough.

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 see and manipulate emf.
Sir Patrick Stewart on Extras. Making women's clothes fall off..
It's too late. I've already seen EVERYTHING.
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.
The main character of the novel "Infinite Mana in the Apocalyps" literally has the traits "I'm the Main Character", "Plotarmor" and "Nexus Events", so you are good with that choice.
I don't need you. I don't even know you. By your logic, you had super powers for 0.0 seconds.
You are not the protagonist of my life.
Psssshhhhhh, hard disagree. I'm EVERYBODYS protagonist in their life!
flexes so hard I poop a little
Dr. Strange.
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.
"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?
I wonder if Han ever choked Leia....
