The goal is to make LC cleaner, easier to understand, and safer for the site going forward.

Power does not corrupt, power attracts the corruptible. As said by Frank Herbert in the 60s.
The problem is always the people wielding the tool, not the tool itself.
I would have to opt for a two-pronged power. One part would be to know what everything is truly thinking (think like a Mel Gibson movie), and the other part would be to be able to corrupt the soul (this should encompass everything from simple mind control/manipulation to full body control and submission through corrupting the essence of the soul).
In short, I'd like to have the power to corrupt souls and hear people's thoughts.
The ability to make my self invisible at will and be completely undetectable. It's just amazing the things people say and do when they think no one is looking or around. The untold amount of information and secrets you could gain in the right hands could be very powerful. But that's just my opinion.
When I was a horny kid I had this fantasy that I could just copy anyone I chose into a... pocket universe is the word I'd use now, though it didn't exist back then I think.
They would be modified during the copy process to want to do anything I like. The setting inside could be controlled by my thoughts. Then when I leave it would reset itself, with the possibility to "save" the copy of the girl for later if I chose to.
That would avoid the moral problems of mind control while still allowing me to do whatever I want with anyone.
I have had dreams where my super power is body switching. I become you and you become me. Not sure how useful it is, but it is always interesting on how to not get caught. Do you kill the old you, or switch between a regular person and a famous person? Want to become richer or younger, easy to do.
