Magical Powers

[anonymous4401]

Drawbacks:
Invisiblity: You get run over by a truck as you are crossing a road. After all, you're invisible.
Telekinetic: You miss and accidentally pinch a vital nerve in your or someone else's brain.
Shapeshifter: You turn into an object, get destroyed. Who knew the shampoo bottle was a person in disguise?
Flying: Fly into jet engine, or something similar.
Teleport: Teleport into wall.
Weather: Wielding tornadoes and lightning can and will cause unintended damage.
Mind read: Do you REALLY want to know what everyone's thinking? Also, no one will ever trust you. EVER.
Like Magneto of X-men: Accidentally activate your powers in knife shop.
other: No one knows what your powers are, and you must keep explaining to them.

That may be dangerous. What if she squeezes you as a shampoo bottle and expects "shampoo" to come out?

They don't have to know that I can read their minds. And they won't. Muahahahahaa...

You're not perfect, nihilistic. At one point, you'll slip up. Then you'll cover for it, but you'll slip up again. Eventually they'll be on to you, and you will disappear without a trace.

Yes, and you know exactly where it is.... What if you teleport into a wall, and get your molecules fused with the wall's molecules? Won't be a pretty sight.

Since where I'd have the choice of where I could go, I would NOT choose a wall.

But you do not gain the powers of knowledge. How will you know what choices you have?

I would have telekenisis.

I call it a "map."

 

[anonymous4401]

Yes, we know all maps can give you the exact tile-by-tile layout of every building in the world, not to mention exact coordinates. I think there's a reason we don't have teleportation abilities, besides the whole messed-up physics thing.
