Cool!

As for my super power, it would be super speed. I mean it's the most versatile of all the powers. I can read, write books, visit distant family, and the job applications are fantastic. Study to be a doctor and then pull off all the really difficult surgeries in moments and give a far better quality of care.

Or Teleportation. I can imagine a lot of uses for that one.

I like the odds. I'd like to be invulnerable.

A few months ago I would have said invisibility. Cause I felt like that would be nice, but not anymore. I'd say flight or super strength. Being able to jump high and punch through walls. To put that with my martial arts and not have to train so hard to build muscle would be nice, but as it is now I'll just keep doing it the way I gotta do it, but yeah super strength.

Maybe invincibility would be cool too, but it wouldn't make for a great martial artist who doesn't learn through pain.

Anyone else want in on this contest?

Pyrovile · April 21, 2011, 07:42:31 PM

I still like the odds.

Now is this the part where we use our super powers to fight and see who wins? That would be all manner of fun. Too bad as far as I can tell I'm still regular human. Oh well.

Wow.. that's a tough question.. so many good ones.. my first thought was Teleportation.. because my long commute.. I'd love to be able to just pop into to work in a split second. But then I was thinking Invulnerable would be nice because then I could actual fight crime. So it's a toss up between those two.

I could teach you some Jiu Jitsu and Muay Thai. That makes you almost invulnerable against most individuals.

not if they have a flame thrower, guns, swords and a ton other items. :)

ElfManDan · April 22, 2011, 09:37:45 PM

Well swords it actually might. Guns Krav Maga (which I don't know very well, but will be training in I hope this summer). And flame throwers, do criminals actually use flame throwers ever? Suppose that it is true there are still dangers, but given a little martial arts knowledge and you do become a pretty powerful weapon on your own. I know if the moment ever arose when I need to be a "hero" I could take somebody out really quick.
