Default What special abilities would you like to have?

If you could have any special ability, what would it be? Here are some that I think I could put to good use:

Teleportation: I'd use this when I know I'm about to be late for work, a class, or some kind of an appointment. I'd even use this when the weather is extreme and I don't feel like enduring it, or if I somehow lock myself out of my house or my car.

Phasing: If someone is trying to throw a punch at me, or if a bullet is heading my way, it would just go right through me and I'd be safe.

Multiplicity: If I have to be somewhere and I don't want to go, I could just duplicate myself and have my fake counterpart go to that place so I don't have to. I could even use this when I want to share something with some people and there's not enough of it to go around for all of them.

Mind reading: It never hurts to know for sure whether someone's telling you the truth or lying their ass off.

Invisibility: I could pass through any place undetected. That, or if someone stole something from another person, I could get it back without being noticed.

Scanning/tracking: Let's say I'm in some shopping mall with a group and I get separated from them. Instead of looking all around the place, I could just stay one place and scan around for their body energies and I could easily follow them and locate them that way.

Super strength: Enough said.

Healing: I could get rid of colds quicker, and also heal others whenever they need it.

Telekenesis: It's probably not something I'd use often, but if there's something I have to get and I don't want to get up, I could just have it come to me.

I like this thread. +rep

Here are special powers I want:

1. Time Travel/Freeze Time - This would be so awesome. If you dont feel like going to school, just freeze time and sleep for a few more hours. Did something stupid? rewind!

2. Metamorph - Who wouldnt want to transform into a bird and fly, or into a dolphin and swim through the ocean?

3. Invisibility - That could get interesting

The only one I really want or need would be Time Travel.. I would definitely work miracles with it. I.E. preventing murder, death... predicting the stock market and donating to charities.. you know.

My must-have powers are invisibility and the ability to transform into someone/something else like Mystique does.

Time Travel and Time Stopage, Invisibility, and Super Speed would give me A LOT of fun.

I just want to make it clear that I would abuse the gift of my powers and use them only for my own gain and benefit.

So I guess we should state which side we want to be a part of.

I want to be a villian.

Hero side.

Come to think of it, I would only need Time Stop, Mach Speed, Zoom In, and a crazy super fighting robot, if that's a special ability. I would be happy.

Wow. I thought I was going to be the only one that said that, and yet there are like 5 other people who said it before me.

Yeah, totally. Spring Break is almost over for me... If I could just go back and not waste it this time...

I'd also like to have the ability to turn out some noises so I can only hear sounds that I want to hear. It would definitely come in handy if I'm in a movie theater and there's someone with a crying baby who's too stupid and/or too inconsiderate to just take it out of the theater.
