Superpowers

[Photon Jet 5,489]

If I ever have superpowers, I would have great bolts of photon energy I can use to attack evildoers and give ponies a helping hand if there's something amiss. I would even be a back up generator for Equestria if a blackout happens.

[BastementSparkle 20,312]

I'd love to have Spiderman, and Wolverine's abilities. Super strength, wall crawling, higher jumping, those Claw things, healing all wounds.

 

 Add Webs too that as well. I know that's not a superpower Spiderman actually has (he just built machines to make the web and shoot it.) But I want it anyway.

[Katana 298]

I'm aware of the warnings, but I still might like mind reading. It's very, very difficult to interpret a smile as either "Maybe if I acknowledge them they'll go away", or "I'll look nice to invite them to talk to me more"

 

Who knows, maybe I could turn it into a more world-solving superpower. Read the mind of a major investor of a super-corporation to find that his quest for money is fueled solely by his poor orphan upbringing when he had to earn everything himself; then try to counsel him on it based on the knowledge.

[ReverseFaller 2,483]

Spiderman powers for sure. I'd also want two swords.

 

It's titan killing time!

[Scootalove 10,685]

Hand me some regeneration and shape-shifting powers, then you've got yourself a deal.

[Tigerpop198 696]

Mind control, you could get anything your way, well most things anyway.

[Manman20x6 359]

Is omnipotence a superpower?

[Static Electricity 729]

The ability to predict the future.

 

I'd make a fortune just by gambling, and the chances of me dying in a freak accident would shrink down to zero

I wanna be able to talk to animals. Sounds crazy and over-rated, but then I would be able to befriend them and also be able to call on their abilities, i.e. get a pack of wolves to hunt my enemy down. XD

[Rift enchanted 379]

I want he power to be able to wish for any superpower!

[Commander Hurricane 170]

I would totally wanna be able control lightning/electricity. /)^3^(\ So if people are being annoying I could give them huge electric shocks. >:3

[Kallisti Imani 40]

I'd choose invisibility.  Preferably being able to be invisible whilst fully clothed.

The ultimate package would be invisibility + teleportation....the possibilities are endless.

[Pareidolia 13]

Invisibility would be nice, sure, but I probably wouldn't use it reponsibly.

[Steel Accord 6,658]

Not really a "superpower" in the traditional sense, but if I could be granted total mastery of all martial arts, that would be awesome! I'm a martial artist in my actual life, but have gone too long without formal training, I've had to keep sparring with a target to keep from the techniques I do know from atrophying. To have absolute knowledge of all styles, especially ones that involve swordplay, would be amazing.

 

If we are going for blatantly super-normal abilities however, I would like the ability to alter reality through writing.

 

Now, this isn't a simple "anvil drops on bad guy" and then it happens. The rule is that it has to fit within narrative causality. Think of it a bit like how Pinkie employs various stock cartoon tricks. She can't do them at will, only when it would be funny.

 

In my case, I could make anything happen, but it has to have an explanation that makes sense. For the same reason a plot hole can destroy a readers/viewer's suspension of disbelief, if I don't give a reason that makes sense with what's already established in the "story" than the resulting inconsistency will backfire. If I were to write, "the sky turns green." It would . . . because the aliens are now invading.

[DiscordedSocks 8]

The ability to get moar powers!

If not then immortality,

Just let machines do the rest...

[BrawnyBold 11]

I would wish for the power to transform into a monster every time I get angry, like the Hulk. The reason is that transforming into a monster when people make you angry is a cool power to me, also, if I calm down then I change back.

[FractalMoon 378]

I'd want the ability to convince anyone to do anything I want just by speaking to them or writing them something. Then I just have someone do research for me in order to make other powers a reality.

[IridscentNionios 1,420]

Transforming into anything i want and having the powers of said beeing. Maybe like Queen Chrysalis improved. Otherwise power over water. EVERYTHING HAS WATER! There is NOTHING water can't corrode, dissolve or whatever. Even the human body succumbs after having too much water. Electronics dead... mind powers? Dead too... i virtually control blood and your body this way. Also... water-cutters cut through ANYTHING... so... you're done. Any last words?

[SomeReallyRandomGuy 137]

The ability to rain lightning on those who annoy me
The population would be much smaller if I had this power.

[Tanner 186]

Telepathy, no idea why but that interests me. 

 

Would be an interesting ability to have, can't think of any examples of where I would use it though.

[Dattebayo 2,850]

The Zach Morris Time Out: the ability to stop and resume time at will to allow you to think a situation over, escape, or anything else you can think of.

 

The best power in the work d.

[Fox 5,330]

I would either want one of the following:

-Control of Gravity

-Time Manipulation/Travel

-Ice Manipulation

-Teleportation

[Foxx 258]

Being able to wish for a superpower sounds like a superpower in itself!

[Confetti Nova 58]

I'd be invisible. I'd like the idea of able to be apart of different places/groups without anyone knowing I'm there. It'll be like watching a show or something, since I'm more of a watcher in real life than a speaker. And I could learn to fly with my force field or something plus it protects me.

[Rainboom Dash 1,055]

Shapeshifting. Really, that should be the only superpower anyone would need, then they could become anything/one that has whatever powers they need.
