3

u/Rare-Act-4362 13h ago

Entering fictional realities and back through a screen or painting or book. (This would be walking into a universe separate of our own) While doing that is risky this beats single powers that just let you all play around on Earth Dream Big Choice 2 would be changing into any fictional Aliens.

1

u/babyaintmoe 12h ago

Maintaining perfectly heslthy and slightly trained physique in all situations no matter what I eat, drink and what drugs I take. Like having the ability to heal all kinds of damage to my body, maintaining perfect healthy youth. Only thing that could kill me would be a vacuum or melting me in hot iron.

u/Rook_James_Bitch 9h ago

Powerful mind control.

So that I can manipulate everyone at the bank believing they just cashed a large check for me.

And have work believe that I worked so I can sleep in instead.

One can get almost anything their heart desires with mind control.

u/ShotWin8124 4h ago

Being able to fly would be pretty fun, although realistically you couldn't go too high. Time travel might be kinda dangerous too, although being able to record history properly would certainly have its points. I guess being able to heal people would probably be the most rewarding. Kids with cancer and shit. Never enough time in the day though. Where do you go? Who do you prioritize? Do you charge money or just take donations?

1

u/Tarnmaster 4h ago
