Fictional universe, including Christianity? Omnipotence then
post
Omnipotence ofc. I will start by recreating logic itself such that it is possible for me to create a rock that is too heavy for me to lift it.
Path to Victory, from Wildbow's web serial Worm.
It's a two-part power. The first looks into the future to determine the exact set of steps necessary to accomplish any given goal, if it is at all possible to accomplish in any way. The second makes you execute those exact steps with zero chance of deviation or error.
It only fails when interfered with by another power also capable of seeing the future.
edit for grammar
Absolute control of atomic structures / telekinesis and psychic abilities.
The grandfather in the book Slipt. Amazing story.
This effectively allows:
Change chemical structures, transmutation, cure/remove illness
Cause strokes or embolisms from a distance with no evidence.
Hey that building full of people I didn't like is now glowing from extreme amounts of radiation! Almost like the cement became a hugely unstable isotope suddenly. Weird.
Within a few days, the world would be forever changed.
Don't know but my dog is rubbing herself against the couch and I'm thinking she is working her way up from godess of static cling to godess of thunder.
I want whatever Saitama from One Punch Man have. It not just super strength and speed, its also invincibility, mindcontrol-proof, illusion-proof, or any mumbo-jumbo-proof.
If that's cheating, i want whatever King have.
I'll take a TARDIS, thank you.
Any universe? I'd like to be Bruce Wayne. Not Batman. Bruce.
Bad news for your parents.
I'll take omnipotence. Not sure what the drawbacks would be.
Everyone constantly asking you to do something for them that they bloody well could do themselves.
You'd never be able to microwave a burrito so hot you couldn't eat it.
I want Domino's luck. All the rest of your powers can get fucked. I'm god's favorite.
Even though it's not the most powerful thing in the world, I've always really vibed with Daredevil's powers. I like the idea of being hyper aware of my surroundings and being able to sense movement, even from far away, without seeing it. Also, great for tracking people.
I don’t remember if you have to have been to a place before in order to teleport there, but if that isn’t the case, Jumper (movie) would be nice. No more commuting and no more borders/passports.
The powers of the Flash is nice, except for the destruction left in the wake of his movements.
Having the powers of Jumpers from the series by the same name seems to have good grounding as momentum is maintained during a jump getting passed the whole, earth and the solar system are moving not just earth rotating.
The ability to predict the future by concentrating on it.
Hello stock market.
Superman style flight would be pretty chill. The biggest drawback I can see is how hard it would be to keep a good pair of sunglasses.
The not-selfish answer would be healing, with no arbitrary restrictions, preferably not attached to some divine power. Oh, you had leg torn off? Let me reattach that real quick. Got poisoned? I can cure that. You went blind? I can fix that...pass me some new eyeballs to attach.
The world will be pitch black :)
And absolute zero.
Super-speed if the speedforce was where the energy came from. Without the speedforce, running at those speeds would ignite the atmosphere and kill everything. Even if I ran slower, the food intake would be insane.
Snap my finger, and all the narcissists, bullies, psychopaths, scammers, pedophiles, abusers of authority, and general dirtbags disappear and never come back. Imagine the world we would live in. Would be paradise.
Probably would be better if you just remove those traits from them. Less genocidal and more justice if they can finally understand wtf they were going and feel guilt. Like ghost riders ability.
Power to create anything, and I do mean ANYTHING.
But are we ready for a big-titty Yoshi whose struggle sounds have been changed so sound like a woman moaning?
Franklin Richards. Mr Fantasic's son. He can create whole universes and bend reality to his will. He is almost always a kid because at full power how are you going to write a believable conflict?
Shapeshifting, from anything
but like, Alex Fierro's power from Magnus Chase, if I have to be specific lol
I've always been obsessed with the powers from Jumper. 100% that's what I'd go for every time.
Shapeshifting.
Doesn't need to be into any form, just "into your true form (and possibly back)" would be enough. I'm a wolf, lemme be a wolf, dammit, universe!
Being able to shift back would be convenient for when human society inevitably demands you look like a human or be treated as an Unthinking Worthless Lesser Object. Until society figures out how awful that is and cuts it out.

Maybe a Deathnote journal.
Less violent option would maybe be mind control at a distance.
If I could do a combo I'd have an eternal (meaning healthy, unkillable, etc) body with an ability to see up to 10 years in the future. Being able to wander anywhere and know when to be places to see major events or to help someone or be a stabilizing influence.
Imagine all the skills you could pick up and the places you could go, the things you could do, the experiences you could have. I wouldn't want to be the one with my name on a discovery, but I'd like being in the background helping it happen.
I'm okay with repeat content in general, but could we have this specific question a little less frequently?
