You become the Herald of a powerful entity, which automatically grants you two super abilities.

1. Super strength (class 100 Mountain moving level strength) - As a side effect of having increased strength, you also have a certain amount of durability (bullet proof). Increased endurance, which gives you the ability to fight or do any activity for days before tiring or getting hungry. It also grants you increased speed allowing for you to run 300 MPH.

2. Flight (Mach 100 or 76,727 MPH) Which automatically grants you tremendous resistances to friction, which also furthers your durability, and heightens your reactions many times that of an ordinary human.

The entity then allows you to choose one more power between the following.

- Telepathy
- Laser vision
- Wind Manipulation
- Telekinesis
- Magnetism
- Time control (limited to slowing events down)

Which do you choose?

Am i fighting whoever chooses the other abilities? If not probably time

How powerful is the telepathy?

No you aren't fighting anyone, just which power would you choose to get the job done on a daily basis.

All powers would be within the high Meta range. So within the range of Professor Xavier.

Telepathy for me then for the first power speed would be the smart answer so I will go strength.

I like Magnetism. So many things you can do. Fly, control electricity, move objects...etc..

I know it's not up there....but if I could be anybody it would be Black Panther.

Controlling time >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> any other power. Ever.

TK

I'd go with Flight and time control.

Just throwing this out there to all the time control folks, it's limited to slowing time down. You can't actually "control" it.

Seems like TP, TK, or Magnetism win the day. He said high meta cap, so Jean and Polaris are roughly what we're talking here, powerwise?

I was going to point that out, but Zop seemed so happy.

TK & TP.

with enough practice, you get flight. You also get "immortality" via consciousness transfer.


what practical use does heat vision have that can't be accomplished with TK or a lighter?

You are given flight, super strength, and bullet proof skin regardless of the extra power you choose.

After some thought, I'd probably go telepathy. TK would be cool, but is partially wasted here. Same with magnetism.

ah, thanks.

still picking tp & tk.

You only get one extra ability. Your super power should be greed.

reading is hard.

Definitely telepathy.

Basically, you'd have a character that has 'mountain moving strength,' has a certain level of durability, can run at 300mph and fly at 77,000mph ...and to that add telepathy (and you mentioned at Xavier level).

That would be a pretty tough character.

The rest would be nice to haves, but wouldn't add that much to a super strong brick able to fly at 77,000mph.

If I am moving at 77,000mph I'll reach you in the same time a telepathic throw would hit you. With telepathy I can slow down others, or even make them stand still. Laser vision ...cool but no cigar. Wind - it would be nice to create area effect wind blasts, but at mach100 I can simulate localized gusts. Magnetism ...very nice, but I'd much prefer telepathy.

This is like adding telepathy to a weak version of Black Adam.

wouldn't Time control (limited to slowing events down) be like a bootleg zoom with extra powers

Definitely Magnetism for me. There is a lot of stuff that can be done there.

It would be.

My issues though were:
1. How much it would add to a character that is basically able to fly at 77,000mph? Sure, Zoom/Flash type speed makes 77,000mph seem super slow (I believe even Black Adam was clocked at Mach 500 in WW3, showing DC's focus on speed), but in most cases that would be fast enough. Even if you can only run 300mph, you can fly at Mach 100 a few feet above the ground. That is super fast.
2. The fact that Xavier level telepathy adds serious abilities. In my opinion, more than the other powers.

If I had a Black Adam-lite body and abilities, I'd prefer high level TP over lasers, TK, magnetism and even slowing things down.

Hmm...

I think I'd need to know what these "herald" duties entailed before I chose my additional power.

Also what the magnitude of the additional power would be being a "herald".

Time control. Any other power pales in comparison especially if u could slow things down to zero.

TP
That's a fact. Try me.

It takes time to slow time down. With TP I can control you instantly, multiple people simultaneously.

Traversing into another dimension to combat demons like Beta Ray Bill did.

You would be protecting one of many sectors of space while having the ability to go back home like a Green Lantern at any time.

Moving long distances, or from planet to planet would not take long because the entity would tell you what sector needed protection and open a portal for you to get there immediately.

The Magnitude of your powers would be about as great as high Meta to low Herald initially, but would grow with continued use until you were within the high Herald to low Trans range.

You would never be able to stop time, but you could slow it down to a crawl. However your control of any particular event would only last for periods of 20 seconds with a cool down of 10 seconds. With that said your already impressive speed would appear to increase in the affected area to light speeds when viewed by any other being affected by time shifts.

You'd initially already have flight.

Magneto

Thanks.

Given the job at hand, I'd choose telekinesis.

Twenty seconds? So how long does the time warp last within that bubble? And what's my range? Tp takes time as well. It's nowhere near instantaneous.

Hmm....I'll have to reconsider my choice. I thought we were just chilling out in real life with these powers. Fighting, and being able to increase our power levels changes things.

Arent u controlling it by slowing it down

telekinesis by far! there are various examples through out fiction of telekinetics bending/manipulating spacetime, manipulating matter/energy and doing a bunch of other crazy shit. hell i remember reading about a telekinetic that could control the neural impulses of people to control their thoughts, feelings, emotions, etc.... high herald to low trans level tk would make you a god. same with telepathy. hell wasnt madelyne pryor able to warp reality through tk by pulling on quantum strings?

In the literal sense, yes. That's why I put it in quotes though. You don't have the ability to manipulate it however you want. It's still viable now that the new stipulations are added, but it just seems limited compared to the others.

Yeah, now that the powercap has increased, I'm having a hard time picking between tk and tp.

TP

With the power cap increase where doe that place time manip?

cool thread

It had some laughs, it did.
