    I would love to have the abilities of a ghost, which would be to be able to become invisible,walk through walls, and telekinesis. I explain telekinesis as a quality of a ghost because you cannot see what is moving the object...its fiction...

    Good and evil are subjective terms, one man's good is another man's evil. I would do what I felt was personally right to do.

    Definitely keep it a secret from the world, except for a few people with whom I would be able to trust as someone with special abilities would likely wanted to be studied by the government.

    I would think a majority of the world would think it was a hoax or fraud at first, not really knowing what it is and such, and it would probably go away. As I am the only person who has the abilities, there would probably be a hype about em for awhile if the rest of the world found out, then the questions would come up, adn then a celebrity will say some remark adn catch the media's attention. Eventually, after all is said and done, I would become nothing more than urban legend.One some people believe, one others do not.

    Interesting question.

    I do believe, as I'm sure almost every 37 y/o comic book geek would, I would try and help, or to keep it simple, I'd be good.

    As to keep it secret or not, I think it would be best, since you could act more freely. If all of a sudden you start lifting cars or opening caved in mines with your bare hands, whatever, it would be tricky (at least) to keep yourself from calling attention. And if you are talking about yellow spandex, I'd say hell-lo, no!

    And that leads us to the last one, your keeping it secret, however that was accomplished, would prevent some ppl to try and taking advantage from you, stalking you for photos, videos and the like, or simply getting in the way, be it authorities or bystanders. Imagine the "Heroes" scenario would become true, and people started doing amazing things. If it was a big amount of the population in the world, you might actually get a chance to not be noticed, but how many of those guys would help, how many would react poorly to it, or take advantage? Ok, let's go the other way, how about if it only was one person, or a few guys? It would be hell for them if everyone knew who they were.

    Question partially answered, and still a lot more to imagine, don't you think? What about possible fights with other gifted fellers, what about governments, medic/rescue institutions, police, armies? What if some superpowered guys were on drugs, or had a mental disorder? The possibilities are limitless.

    Wow, good question...

    The power to bring my imaginary things to life would be nice :)

    Kinda like foster's home for imaginary friends :\ only not. Hmm...Y'know, this is actually a hard question.

    OH! :D To be a WIZARD, like Harry Potter? That'd be great :)

    I'd be in between-ish, well....more like a selfish person really :\ I just do stuff that's convenient for me D: So, I'm not sure if the world would really be affected by it. I'd be MAGIC which is just plain amazing :)

    If the world found out....:\ I'd obliviate the whole world and move to Hogwarts with my lovely Severus :D

    Amazing, really :)

    If I had any power I want is wil be the power over the elements of Nature. I'll used it for good. I'll keep it a secret so No one will treat me like a freak. and I think the world who try to hunt me like an animal are because I'm different from them.

    I would love to be able to speak, read & understand all languages. I would keep it a secret from most of the world except for those I knew I could trust. I would probably be hounded to help solve all sorts of disputes with those from different countries.

    Everyone has magic or powers inside of them but first you have to find out ways to unleash it.For example you want to become a wizard you must become friends with elements and they will give you spells and stuff like that in return. And to answer your question, I do have powers well, not really powers but im a witch and that is what i wanted to become and if you dont believe anything that i just said you will not learn to be what you want to become.

  • neither, i would be neutral and stay out of world conflicts. The world would think i am a lazy bum because i wouldnt even use them if i had them except for taking me where i need to go, or doing odd jobs around the house or at work

    I would be good i guess.

    Yes i would how would everyone feel if they knew i could read there minds.
