I'd say SPL Mimicry 1: Ability Chain might be fun, since it'd effectively induce New Beginning. We'd get all our profile powers, while everyone else would acquire none. They could still acquire powers if they created a profile, but that'd depend on them finding out our source of power.
Bow before your unimaginably powerful overlord!

The last thing I'd want to do, ever, is induce New Beginning.

I have mixed feelings about real life New Beginning. On one hand you guys would all probably go nuts....but on the other...all my list powers to use as I see fit...

What you did there. I see it.

In any case, we have Selective Temptation Immunity to play with, which was almost specifically designed for this purpose. I also found another power called Enhanced Character which would also help deal with the problem.

In any case, I do not think I'd be much of a threat; I'd be more likely to isolate myself rather than cause damage. It'd only be during the rare violent meltdown (an Asperger's Syndrome thing) that I'd be dangerous, but even then I'd be likely to isolate myself and brood rather than make continents disappear.

I however can make no such promises. I'd pick fights with the army for fun...collateral damage be damned.

And this is when I unload The Retroactive Retcon Prana and firmly state that none of this ever happened.

That's a point; have a "save and reload" button for humanity; if one of us ever lashed out, reset to last save.

With Enhanced Character Traits, you wouldn't have any other choice other than being the best person ever. Of course it wouldn't matter, because if you're never tempted to do anything you'd never do anything. How would you want to know you want to do something if the little voice in your head going "do it man, go for it" is gagged?

Both of these are akin to dying, just in different ways. The former being a change so enormous it may as well be the complete death of the self, and the withering death of apathy.

I must thank everyone for offering criticism. It helped me to design a power without such flaws and subsequently add it to the list last night.

Any new thoughts on global power acquisition?
