I'm curious, if you could be born into a game with one unique ability, what would it be and why?


please do not mention an ability that someone else mentions, instead try to think of something new and original.

this is the basics I've thought up off the top of my head.

being able to shrink, being able to be extremely large, or transform into an animal. Then I thought of being able to breath underwater, make plants grow faster. Anymore would be helpful.


assume this game is probably a role playing game or a fighting game.
The ability to smack someone and give them special abilities. Like the ability to make hotdogs appear out of no where, along with a pop of your choice.

Obviously the ability to get out of the game.
The rediculous GM powers most BYOND games have.

Honestly I'd want out :). I don't think there is any game out there that I'd like to be in! But if this were some character I were controlling from outside the game I'd like to be able to blow stuff up.
Freeze time selectively. It would be cool because you could freeze a security camera at night, and rob a store. Or freeze the world for a couple days while you studied for exams, or made the best BYOND game in the world in what appears to be a split second!

In a multi-player game though, this wouldn't be possible, so I would have to choose flight, or teleportation.

why not just have the power of all powers?
In response to Darkfirewolf5
Because that would be boring! It would be like playing chess with all queens against someone who has only pawns...no matter how good they are, unless you were purposefully losing, they would lose.

I know...the power to create stikee bunz rain from the sky
or have the powers to camofloauge myself to look like someone else!

I thought of one: to charge an object with gravitational potential energy! Immediately they would be forced to the ground/forced to the ground harder/fall faster. With that you could carry cards around with you (like X-men Gambit =P) but this time instead of blowing up, you would throw them, then charge them in midair, and they would plummet down. If they were sharp (like made of metal or something) they could do some cool damage. Also, if someone jumps at you you could slam them into the floor before they got to you.

One last advantage of it is training. I personally believe that if you did live at a stronger gravity you would get stronger after some research I did on bone cells, but if it's too much you would die. If you walked around with 1.1 Grav the whole time for a year, then upped it to 1.2 I'm sure you'd get enormously powerful bones which allow for more pressure and such, so that when you do actually get hit it won't hurt you as much!

Just a random idea though!

And being able to selectivly freeze time is that much better than being able to do anything?
In response to Theodis
You've got a point there, but in my defence I would like to say I had all intention on restrictions. E.g. You can only freeze it for a certain amount, and can only do it a certain amount of times before you need to recharge (go to sleep) - but true, it wouldn't make a very good game.

Here are some:

Telekinesis

Body Transference

Teleportation

Shapeshifting

Summoning things out of thin air(walls to escape from something, weapons to fight something, things to have things to fight or escape from)

Mimic(turn into target)

Invisiblity

Super Persuasion

Mind Control

Laser Eyes

Super Speed

Regeneration

Replication(either ex-agent Smith way or amoeba way or starfish way)

Walk through walls

Steal life(for evil people)

Healing(for good people or evil people if they are healing people just to hurt them again :] )

Extreme Adaptation***this is the one i like most( the more you get hit more, it becomes harder to hit you; to more life you lose, the less life you lose; die often, die less often;eventually, after a long time of training you are nearly invincible but balance it by making the starting character really really weak)

Communication with Nature (when you come across an enemy: tie them down with vines, give them plagues, have a [insert big animal here] attack them; food from trees that sprout up at your command)

Command Items (it slices AND dices, simple objects become a whirling storm of death as they assault your enemies; or they just work better for you/you can fix them)

(i got a WHOLE lot more ideas, what do you think my chances of success are if I become the first creativity consultant for BYOND games?)

Ain't exactly one ability, but one ain't exactly not one... or is it isn't it? muahahaha.
