It's game time. You come across a device that has the ability to grant you exactly two of its predetermined wishes. This device is not bound by the dimension of time. I.e., once the wishes have been granted, it is impossible to get more or reverse your previous decision.

NOTE: The abilities outlined in parentheses are available only if you choose L as your second wish.

A. The mastery of any (three) type(s) of mental or physical discipline(s). "Mastery" represents obtaining outright knowledge of the discipline, past human proficiency. NOTE: The device is not considered or covered by a discipline. It is impossible to acquire any knowledge of it.

B. Impervious and unbreakable bones, as well as the ability to cover a portion of your body with your bones, shielding yourself from physical harm. The maximum coverage is 15 (45) square centimeters. This ability also strengthens your ligaments and tendons. Pain is reduced by 50% (you can control how you feel pain. Your body is also able to survive a temperature range of 1K to 10273K. (You gain super strength, allowing you to lift up to a maximum of 100,000 kilograms. This is accompanied by super anchoring. Furthermore, you also strengthen any objects you touch, however, this is only applied when you are lifting something, allowing you to carry huge machines without simply creating hand-shaped holes; you can not consciously control this.)


C. Regenerative abilities similar to Wolverine of the X-Men. The ability is not extended to body parts (your limbs can also regenerate). Speed is dependent on the extend of the damage, scaling up from nearly instantaneous healing of minor lacerations to one month if your internal organs have been damaged (scales from instantaneous to one day). Your stamina increases by a factor of 10. Efficiency of internal energy use becomes superlative, requiring no more than the standard diet to maintain your power. You also gain a super-genome, removing and possibilities of cancer from rapid DNA replication. This ability does not impart a higher tolerance to pain. Death will still occur if your brain is destroyed. Aging is slowed by 50% (90%). (You become nigh unkillable, able to regenerate as long as some part of you remains in existence, e.g., a skin cell, even if your brain is destroyed. Your place of regeneration will be where the most mass of you exists together.)

D. Your reaction time is reduced to one microsecond. You may freely activate this ability at any time, but it may only be sustained for instances of 1 real-time millisecond, with a recovery period of 10 milliseconds (reaction time is reduced to one femtosecond and the ability may be sustained for 1 real-time nanosecond, with a recovery period of 10 nanoseconds). When activated, you may move freely. Your body will be able to handle the effects of extreme acceleration. Anything you are touching will also be able to handle extreme forces, up to a total mass of 10 (1,000) kilograms. When activated, this ability also gives you control of the friction of surfaces you make contact with. You are bound to the ground while this ability is activated, so you aren't launched into the air for moving at massive speeds. (You are no longer bound to the ground. Rather than walk, you can simply propel yourself through the air while the ability is activated.) (You literally create energy, becoming able to vibrate any matter in existence that you are touching to the point that it breaks down on the molecular level. You are resistant to any heat created. This requires intense concentration, decreasing the current amount of time you are allowed to sustain your reaction time ability by 50% for each use. The handicap is gradually removed over a period of one hour per use of the ability. Can only be used in real-time.)

E. You gain the ability of teleportation. You may teleport yourself and anything you are directly touching, limited only by the total amount of mass the objects have [if your clothes weigh over the limit, you will appear without certain articles of clothing]. The limit is 5 (10,000) kilograms. The maximum distance you can teleport is 472 (12,757) kilometers, measured linearly. This ability works by instantly directing you to a specific latitude, longitude, and height (where height begins at sea level], accounting for any curvature of the Earth as well as its movement in space. Teleportation is bound to this dimension. You may only teleport a maximum of twenty-four times power twenty-four hours (you may teleport an unlimited number of times). You may only teleport to places where you have been before (you may teleport anywhere within distance, regardless of having been there before).

F. The ability to rewind time up to a maximum of one (twenty-four) hour(s). This power is similar to that seen in the video game series Prince of Persia. All information gained during the time rewound will be retained. The ability suffers a recharge duration equal to twice (three-halves) the amount of time rewound. NOTE: This ability can not be used to reuse this device, as it is not bound by the dimension of time.

G. The ability to turn invisible and visible at will. When invisible, all things you are wearing and directly touching will also become invisible, assuming the object's mass does not exceed 1 x 10^9 kilograms. (You will have the ability to control the invisibility of anything within a 50 meter radius. This is only limited by the amount of mass the object has, the maximum amount being 1 x 10^9 kilograms.) This ability affects light in the visible spectrum (ultraviolet and infrared light are also affected).

H. The ability to survive without sleep (food, oxygen, sleep, and water). You will not suffer any symptoms of deprivation from it (them). You may still partake in the activit(ies) if you choose to.

I. Everyday, for the rest of your life, you will earn exactly $912.62 ($2,737.85) deposited where you choose. This money comes without any deductibles; it is tax free. The amount will adjust with the direction of inflation so that it will effectively remain the same. Society will not question where this money comes from. (For some reason, society offers you The Moon and Mars, and you now own these celestial bodies and anything built on these bodies, human or alien.) If you choose, you may appoint an heir after your death. You may sacrifice $10,000,000, adjusted with inflation alongside your income, for two extra years of life. This extension applies to your natural death by aging and can only be paid in full. If you live that long, this will change to galactic currency.

J. The ability to have sex with whatever and whomever you want to for the rest of your life and for as long as you want to, with no consequences. You also gain the ability to have multiple orgasms and can control their duration. Your pleasure from sex is tripled and you may choose to have up to two extra penises/vaginas at will. Society will not care how you choose to execute this. This ability also applies to fictional characters as well as imaginative characters, however, they will disappear after sex. (If you choose to create a fictional character or being, after sex for the first time, you may keep the character in existence; they will be in love with you. The character will retain none of their powers; they will only be given super strength and flight, if applicable. The same applies to imaginative characters. If you choose to use the power on a different target, the character will disappear. If the character dies or disappears, you can recreate them, but they will not retain any memories of past existence.)

K. The ability to have near-complete (complete) control over your body. E.g., you would have control over your emotions, could access "hysterical strength" at will, or could have an orgasm for no reason. You can not direct your body to do things which are physically impossible. (You can now control every aspect of your body, however, you still can not go past the realm of reality; super strength and speed isn't realistic.) (You gain the ability to read people's minds. This can also be used to let a single person or group of people hear your thoughts in their native language, not yours. This ability has unlimited range, affective even other star systems if you so choose. If you use this ability too long, you will acquire a migraine that limits the ability and that will not dissipate until you rest for half the amount of time you used the ability.)

L. This wish will increase the power of your other wish, granting you the abilities outlined in the parentheses.

Aren't all these essentially the same as J? Yeah powers are cool and shit... but the big question most of the time is, "Will this get me laid?"

Seems to me they're awfully redundant.

@Kein: If that's how you see it, then you can run with it. Though I'd rather have a power that has more uses than just getting laid, and getting laid on my own, rather than... JUST getting laid. But whatever floats your boat.
