If you would be have super-abilities…

Post by Kraken(rpgworld) »

In recent years become popular films of a simple guy or girl, who found a wonder item, or has acquired a super powers.
Although when you think about these topics have been a long time - remember Aladdin \ Francois \ Ivan with their magic lamp \ magic bean \ magic pike ?
However, when reading comics about Batman, I'm confounded here a moment - one of the characters says that 9 out of 10 luckier acquired super abilities, becoming a Dark Path of the Force.
And the explanation was logical and very grim.

Terms of the problem.
One fine day you woke up and suddenly ...
discovered that you have bred over super-ability, or near your bed is a magic item (with detailed instructions for use)
If you do not like this way of acquiring excess superpowers \ wunderwaffe - can think of any other (at your taste).
The main thing - you suddenly have something that increases your powers compared to other people, and increases in many times at that
What will you do?

Bad, bad idea in my case. Even if it's just the standard "flying brick" powerset, I have a lot of anger to work through. Enough that quite possibly Kid Miracleman would be going "B*tch, you crazy."

a magic wolf hide that transforms me into a werewolf (I'm talking old school here) so I can go out and tear apart glittering vampires and their new age werewolf sissy friends!!!!!
Even a man who is pure of heart
And says his prayers by night
May become a wolf when the wolf-bane blooms
And the moon is full and bright

I'll give a little hint.
As someone who has lived in rural area, will tell one interesting moment.
Animals, which hosts allow spoilt and «all-u-want» changing rapidly.
-They become very nervous instable (sometimes hysterical)
-They become aggressive and prone to sadism (as to other animals and to humans)
-They have a tremendous awakening desire for actions that are prohibited by another animal (the simplest example - the goats are beaten if they climb into the garden. Spoilt «all-u-want»goat will climb to ruin the garden, even if not hungry)

An example from classical literature
«The Lord God Made Them All» (James Herriot)
VIEW CONTENT:
Chapter Thirty-Six
What horrible little dogs!
It was a sentiment that rarely entered my mind because I could find something attractive in nearly all my canine patients.
I had to make an exception in the cases of Ruffles and Muffles Whithorn. Try as I might, I could find no lovable traits, only unpleasant ones—like their unvarying method of welcoming me into their home.

Along the way, to explain a few moments in the life of comic book characters.
Failure to follow these simple rules in real life can lead to unpleasant results surprising

Why are comic book heroes wear masks and carefully conceal their abilities?

Waiting for you a lot of unwanted guests. Arranged in ascending order of danger:
-Intrusive fans screaming "give me an autograph!"
-More intrusive journalists, persistently calling for your participation in the advertising «Whiskas-Pamel-etc», or attempting to take pictures as you go to the toilet
-Thieves. Remember how much went guitar Kurt Cobain? Believe me - the mask of Batman will cost more. And successfully robbed a superhero people will be very rich.
- losers. Remember Herostratus, who burned the great temple to celebrate? And psycho who killed Lennon to become famous? After a while you will definitely person who believes that the best way to become famous - to kill the superhero.
-Cons and / or Mafia. Remember misadventures of Ariel, the legendary works Belyaev.
-Military and / or special services, who dream to establish pipeline issue of cyborg assassins.
The simplest example is General Ross, made a real witch-hunt for the Hulk.
-Supervillains (if you're a hero) or characters (in case the "dark side").

No matter how much I tape or use special clothing, I can't maintain a lasting cleavage.

Thus, my earlier request in this thread still stands. :)

The implants were the EASY part, dammit. I failed to take the effects of gravity into account and now I'm literally touching knees.

^Oh man, that sucks! Well, now you'll have to go for the reduction surgery then, I guess. Or invest in some push up added protection support garments, targeting the specific areas where you need assiatance. Spanks anyone?

The funniest part of that is the Slim 'N' Lift, which has the watermark of "Hangzhou Cosmetic and Body Image Health Bureau" on it.

Since when does the Chinese city of Hangzhou, once quoted by Marco Polo as one of the cities of "heaven on earth", concern itself with manboobs?
