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 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? 🤷
"Divine Powers" means you can make anything Fabulous! with just a glance.
Hell yeah
Guys you don't even eye siphon abilities? It's the pro strat
I figure that and attractiveness will enable you to borrow any other ability you need.
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.
I'll take Divine Powers. I think the rest will then sort out by itself.
I'm trying to work out what that is. The ability to, uh, do everything on that list? If so, I will also take 3 scoops please.
You know, standard stuff like food transmutation, turning into a swan to get laid and having fire come out your mouth when you get mad.
Maybe it comes with the burden of cosmic knowledge, so all the fun human-level stuff doesn't seem worth doing
Attractive male, insanely rich, intellect.
Y’all have fun being superheroes. I’m gonna enjoy the fuck out of life.
Why would you pick intellect if you wanted a good time? Isn't ignorance bliss?
Yes but that haven't received the intelligence power yet so they don't know that
There's no rules that says having powers mean you have to be a superhero
You could also be a supervillain... >:)
Aww, cute sad walrus emoji
"Attractive Female", "Divine Power" ~~because what power doesn't fall under that~~, and "Insanely Rich."
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.
I think Insanely Rich means that you're actually an insane guy called Rich
I think Attractive female means you become an attractive female, so the genie got you.
Oh no, you got me, genie! hahaha, definitely didn't want this, you got me so good 😉
Of course a blahaj.zone user comments that!
I thought that's what they meant at first.
Radar sense, submariner and radiation. I'm about to go defend Greenland mortherfuckers!
Teleport - force field - healing
Pretty much nothing you couldn’t do and get away with it. Go anywhere and nobody could stop you. Healing seems redundant with force field, but I assume you’d have to turn off the force field to do some things which would leave you vulnerable.
All choices depend on the degree of the power. How much can you lift with telekinesis and how dexterous is? Is magic cantrips, level 9 spells, or something even more arcane? To what level are the speed and strength "super"? Are you a "Captain America" super human or Superman?
Thankfully, my constant favorites are pretty definite: invulnerability and immortality.
What even is "psychic" and how is meaningfully different from "telekinesis" and "telepathy"? Is it bundling all the other -kineses? Yeah, I'm giving it too much thought but personally I don't like discussions based entirely on everyone not having enough information.
Yeah it would be interesting to know the limits. Mine would be SuperSight+Teleport, with the understanding that I'm able to perceive time very slowly at will and maybe see very far if I want to. Also, sneezing wouldn't trigger a teleport.
I don't want any Saiki-K situations where I'm unable to be attracted to people because I can only see through their skin by default
I already have autism, PTSD and depression. I don't know if I can handle more.
