Warning, if you have hypotheticals or cannot think for yourself and copy what you see on TV, go away. Now. You'll wreck people's fun. Or at least mine.

Now then, think for a second. You have just entered a similar world to your own, your parents and family are still there, but you have a choice. You could become a superhero, or even a supervillain in this world upon entering. Now then, once you have chosen, you notice something. Your town that you had lived in is now ten times bigger, the size of a metropolis. Upon further investigating, you find that the city is in a territorial crisis, it being divided in a middle line. The heroes and villains are each on the different sides. After going to your side, an official of the city comes to you to teach you of your powers. It turns out that you can focus them into "moves".
Here's where the rhetorical part comes in. If you were a superhero/supervillain, what would your costume be, and what powers would you have? Also, no being completely uncreative and saying "rainbow", "all the powers ever known", or "the ability to transform into other people and have their powers", or "stealing peoples powers just by looking at them", or anything of that like. It's godmodding and it makes you look like a person who likes Mary Sues.

Personally, if I had the choice, I'd focus all my &quotowers" into making robots, and 1, being the main robot, had a built in camera with controls so I could remote control it and a platoon I'd make for it. I'd be a SuperVillain, because it's just plain more fun.

yes, this hypothetical was inspired from CoX. Of which I'm deeply in love with atm. However this is just for the people who haven't played it, ans so far there's some interesting answers here~


I've been to their website... If it wasn't for a membership fee, I would have bought it the next time I was at best buy...

@TSL3: so basically, you are Cole from Infamous (only he doesn't carry TC's on his back because he lives in a city...)

Generally 1.5 million volts requires a lot of amps.


no it doesn't... the formula is

I=V/R

High Voltage is important though... It is something like for every 10,000V, you can go 1cm... So, your range would only be about 1.5meters... To really do some damage from long distances, you would need it in the hundreds of millions of Volts...

Oh, and it is Amp's only that cause damage. Volts don't really make a difference, it is just the current that kills. Now, lets say you had:

100,000,000 Volts
5 Amperes

You would have a range of 100 meters and would have the ability to kill people instantly (it only takes around 14 miliamps to kill the heart...)

Not to be critical or anything, its just that well, look at my name...

Thoad, you have a rather weird way of explaining and thinking about alignments...
But I guess it will be better to use your ways for this, than trying to correct you (tried, failed, not gonna try again).
But yeah: Alignments are seperated into two categories:
Chaotic, Lawful, Neutral <choose one
and
Good (Herotic), Evil (Villianous), Neutral. <choose one

Especially as Chaotic and Lawful are opposites, which means chaotic "honourable" would be a wonderful oxymoron.

And more sinister, I'm guessing?

You're not planning to get some poor sap to blow up a town for you, right?

Name: Gangsta Joe

Outfit: All Black clothes. A black hoodie. Black Ragged Jeans. Old worn in black shoes. I always have my hood up.

Powers: To get any gun or hunting knife into my hands. Also I'm kind of like Hancock where it is hard to hurt me. Im not invincible, but as a superhero, you know, you cant just have the strength of an average human being. You would get destroyed.

Alignment: Im not sure what I want, so why don't you villains persuade me to be evil and you heros persuade me to be good.

Well then how am I supposed to have a psychotic villain that has a sense of honor?

I think it's pretty much impossible to have someone psychotic and still be lawful.

@Blkasp (btw, I've been pronouncing your name as "bliksap" all this time... lol! XD): I like your hero, he's very down to earth and well made! Not mary sueish at all

But yeah: Alignments are seperated into two categories:
Chaotic, Lawful, Neutral <choose one
and
Good (Herotic), Evil (Villianous), Neutral. <choose one

Yes cen, and I remember the nuetral side, I just disagree with your chaotic neutrals and neutral neutrals.
Especially as Chaotic and Lawful are opposites, which means chaotic "honourable" would be a wonderful oxymoron.

That's what I said!
-Yes but Im even cooler, stronger and richer now.

Dude, make what YOU WOULD BE, don't just copy what you see on your TV , comic book, or video game, okay?!
-Join my ranks, together we will rule this wasteland.

This isn't a game dude, it's a hypothetical. Please don't ruin this for the other people who actually want to DISCUSS.

That part was just to clarify for everyone else, actually. And you disagree with that chaotic is as well.

That's what I said!

Again, clarifying.

Hmm, hero or villian... Anti hero, would possibly be the best... *wonders*

Gangsta Joe is a villain now. Villians are the good guys. I have figured that out.
