I feel like immortality is always a monkey's paw.
Can we replace it with like... Negligible Senescence?

Assuming it's not a monkey's paw (since invulnerability is also there) then:
Immortality, teleportation (to escape capture), intellect.

Also wtf is Devine Power?

Why doesn't "Divine Powers" include everything else? 🤷

[–] Test_Tickles@lemmy.world 5 points 4 days ago (1 children)

"Divine Powers" means you can make anything Fabulous! with just a glance.

Immortal, invulnerable, teleportation

Now I can do whatever I want without having to worry about consequences.

I picked teleportation because I'd hate for example if somehow someone launched me into a sun or black hole and there was nothing I could do forever.

Being immortal an invulnerable I assume I'd be able to get rich very easily.

I also assume the following:

  • immortal mean that you don't die of old age or sickness
  • invulnerable still ages (counter with immortal)
  • divine is not godlike but jesuslike. Can perform miracles or even come back to life but has limited power. Not immortal, not invulnerable

Well, immortality and invulnerability are a definite to deal with some existential dread.

Then I suppose insanely rich because you're going to need a lot of money to make investments on a forever time scale.

I feel like teleportation gets you an ability that makes money just fine. Hell, just invulnerability makes you valuable for cleaning up nuclear accidents like Chernobyl and Fukushima.

Attractive female, insanely rich, and teleport. I'll have a gf, have money to finance my 1000 hobbies and help others, and never have to stand an hour in a crowded bus trying to hold in a fart again.

If I'm a plural system do we get to pick 3 for each of us? :)

If it's one set for everyone, I'm going with Shapeshifting, Healing, and the third kind of depends on how this stuff works.

Shapeshifting I'd take even if I was only allowed one power. I'd finally have a body that fits. Several of them, in fact. Some might even be human. We could swap between us physically, and turning into stuff for a while just sounds fun.

Healing because if I don't pick it I'm eventually going to regret it. Shapeshifting might already let me fix any damage that isn't incapacitating or instantly lethal, but that only applies to my own body. I'd want to be able to help others, too.

For the third power... Magic could mean a lot of things, including many on this list. Maybe it's a "jack of all trades, master of none" kind of deal, which I'd be fine with. A bunch of spells that cover a wide range of situations but aren't as strong as specializing in a single power.

Teleport is really appealing. Lots I can do with it if I can take people or things with me, or set up something long-range that doesn't require line of sight. If it also allows me to create permanent portals then we're really going to have fun.

Or I could take Invulnerability to remove that "incapacitating or instantly lethal" weakness and really lean into being some kind of unstoppable healer. Divine Powers? Depending on what that does, it could replace Healing while also giving a bunch of other benefits. Hell, if it lets me resurrect people too, and I also take Invulnerability, then I'm basically an emergency respawn point for the entire community.

What is psionic if not psychic? And how are telekinesis and telepathy separate from both?
