Discussion Trade half your life for a super power...

[Sleeper System]

If you could trade half of your remaining life span for a super power, what would it be?
It can't be a loop hole to the conditions of the trade or a power that directly hurts others or manipulates life, death, love, or free will.
The Second condition is that every time you use this power, you shave off 1 hour from your life and if you reach said limit you die of a heart attack. You have to explain in detail your power and the reasoning behind it. Creativity and outside the box thinking is a plus.

The power to overcome survival instinct. Pretty self-explanatory.

This feels like it belongs more in off-topic but I like this question a lot.

I would probably choose omniscience or something like having any question answered, then I could figure out if life is really worth living and if it isn't, I can find out the best way to die. :D

 

[Alltheywanted]

I'd choose the power to stop the time as life is often way to fast for me.

 

[leavingthesoultrap]

Time travelling for sure. Because I fucked up in the past

Manipulating probability. Anything that has a 0 percent chance of coming true can now have a 100 percent chance of coming true guaranteed that whatever I manipulate to be true doesn't violate any of the rules stated

Edit: I feel like this thread should have been posted in off topic instead of here

To know everything there is, and the objective truth outside of what human brain is capable rn. That is more important than indulging in things my brain finds overwhelmingly pleasurable.

 

[ThymeToLeave]

Teleportation to let me go anywhere I want, instantly. I could make money transporting people and cargo anywhere in the universe.

Ya gotta know, I don't give a stuff what the super power is. Trade half my remaining life and lose another hour every time it's used is a super power in itself.

I would use it repeatedly til I croaked. But I probably would choose the power to tap my brain into the internet, like some sort of super AI hacker. Then I would redistribute all the world's wealth (not to me).

 

[Sleeper System]

I would like the ability to manipulate matter. Turn animals into humanoid soldiers. Turn bare rock into gold. Turn water into N. Lol.

 

[Aim]

The power to heal myself and people from experiencing pain

 

[Morte]

Insta death and no after life guaranteed

 

[Spectre]

Time manipulation. I need revenge, so undo some mistake or maybe just to prevent my own birth. Plus it'd be fun

 

[WhiteRabbit]

The power to heal myself and people from experiencing pain

I was going to pick this but you beat me to it.

 

[DoubleUp8]

Really a fun question u could come up with a lot of em. Something to make the cops powerless somehow like look at them and their bodies become totally paralyzed. Every muscle. They can't even talk or blink.
They become like statues
They become like statues

If omniscience is on the table then I would choose omnipotence. Using my omnipotence I would grant myself omniscience and omnipresence; becoming a literal God.

Then, I could undo all suffering, mortality, and the very rules set forth by OP.

To satisfy the playful rhetoric of the question, I would choose the power to permanently remove the causes of suffering. Removing suffering in individuals would last a lifetime. Whereas, removing the causes of suffering would transcend individuals and lifetimes, gifting joy and peace for endless generations to come.

hehe, but you could still write it. If that's what you ment. ;)

 

[Forever Sleep]

I'd like to become a Green Goddess with the ability to heal all of the destruction we have done on this earth. Of course- the moment I die, everything will start being hacked to bits again.

 

[Burden_Bailey]

The ability to shapeshift. First off, I'd be able to escape this horrible human life. Second off, a way dumber reason… I'm a furry lol.

Or as they say; The more the merrier

 

[kane9191kosugi]

Probably reality manipulation as in rewriting reality to your liking. If that's the case, than you don't really need reverse time as you don't necessary have to redo things from zero.

My personal life, and the world in general is so fucked up that if I had this ability I would just spam the crap out of it lol. But sadly that's not the case so if you can't warp/change this shitty reality than you can just end it, and that will likely be my fate.

This haha I love this and could probably get in contact with so many more things
