I am not going to right out a detail reason why.


I like having healing powers in general as long as I feel that not all I do
 
Mind Manipulation?


I mean like, the real OP kind, the one where you can go into someone's head. Like, sure, I could be able to move stuff with my mind or spew oceans of flames, but like yo, think of that mad collateral damage you just caused trying to look cool in front of ya new superfriends. Instead, go into their heads, make it LOOK like you spewed fire, picked up a wall of flaming cars with telekinesis, and then like, restore them all to normal with those time powers that you don't have but just totally tricked them into thinking you have. And all that without making those poor muggles have to break into their insurance!


Would insurance even cover some jerkass super?


But yeah, like, with them Mind games you could set up a whole lot of tricky tricks, and hide your real power behind said tricky tricks in the process.


I dunno what choices that'd factor into tho.


Novelty and Superiority, maybe?


edit: Also, going right on into Novelty would be Power Immunity, because no selling some dude's ultra powerful omnikinetic superdude would be funny as hell.

If I were to pick my two absolute favorite powers to give to a single character, here's what I'd give them:


First, Ice magic. You know, creating objects out of ice from thin air, making it snow when you want to, etc., etc.. I don't know why, I just find the concept of Ice magic to be a (Pardon the pun) cool one. Maybe it's because, in real life, I'd much prefer to be cold than to be hot? Plus, characters who routinely use Ice magic tend to have that "Cold" edge to them, while also remaining graceful at the same time. Kind of like ice itself.


The second power would be Dark magic. I don't have nearly as good an explanation for this one, but I've noticed that several, if not all, of my "Evil" characters will have the ability to summon objects, manipulate environments, and teleport using Dark magic. Again, I don't have an explanation for it, but it's there.

Excellent POV, Bandit =P


I'd say you're right with it falling under both. Lol. Power immunity would break a role-play, make people hate you, and get yourself black-listed. Pick it at your own risk.

The choice of ice is clearly personality. Maybe the dark is too? You may have a dark side (>u>). But really, it might be. I'm one of those people that love the "light side," so powers that are "holy" seem cool to me. It kind of makes sense, as my personality is more selfless and helpful than selfish and not helpful.

That... Actually makes a surprising amount of sense. Of course, IRL I want to be nothing less than the nice guy who helps people whenever I can, but in stories and especially during roleplay I tend to draw from that dark side you mentioned a lot.


Hmm...

Haha. I wouldn't say you're evil, Lego! It's just some people are "darker" than others. Nothing wrong with that. Dark does not mean evil.
