If you had superpowers...

@missallyesterday Please see parentheses in first sentence of my op -> (let's limit it to scientifically possible within the next 20-30 years) I like the enthusiasm though, teleportation may be possible within the next 30 years or so using gravity manipulation to 'warp' you to your target destination. Now for the ghost part, well I'm not saying you can't be a ghost >.> but science doesn't really believe in ghosts <.< Would you be O.K. with invisibility/ a device to cause sound wave levitation/ manipulation of objects?

Well for one I stuck with technologies we have but only need refinement instead of technologies that haven't been invented yet or may need more like 100yrs to reach that level. A fully cybernetic body would require a computer brain and there would be multiple potential issues like susceptibility to electromagnetic pulse and getting through metal detectors/scanners. I want to be relatively incognito and pass for human. I just want to be a real live anime girl who doesn't age and is hghly resistant to disease.
kain_karasu
Ah, well those are very valid reasons getting through the airport with a cybernetic body would probably be a bitch to deal with <.<

You guys might find this interesting, having to do with the art of Grong-hjug, entering someone else's body: http://www.sacred-texts.com/bud/ettt/ettt18.htm http://books.google.com/books?id=IZJYgCSL8EcC&pg=RA1-PA1-IA10&lpg=RA1-PA1-IA10&dq=grong+hjug&source=bl&ots=QQSaW68-rg&sig=j_xtyaXh66pmw7O3WBX2zn5PQw8&hl=en&sa=X&ei=tx50U6r5I87eoASlyILoAQ&ved=0CDIQ6AEwAw http://www.spiritualforums.com/vb/showthread.php?t=39943&page=2 Entertaining convo: http://www.godlikeproductions.com/forum1/message946846/pg1

All I care about is "Immortality" I don't care how many cybernetics and enhancements it would require. As for the bonus question? I wouldn't mind an adorable girl as my sidekick. Lol.....
missallyesterday
Eh. Ain't nobody got time for that! Jk I was on my phone and can hardly read anything let alone what was in parenthesis. I think while invisibility could be useful. It just wouldn't be the same. Someone with infrared goggles would easily detect you and attack you.
kain_karasu
Well there's multiple different types of invisibility cloak like devices in progress right now, some just mask your presence while others literally bend wavelengths around you making you not only invisible to the naked eye but also infrared and pretty much anything else >.> Though admittedly there is quite a bit of progress to be made with that technology considering the most they've cloaked is a tiny little square.
missallyesterday
Yeah. But, it still doesn't cover the intangibility I'd enjoy as a ghost... -_-
missallyesterday
Even if I were completely invisible, I would be tangible... -_- Not as good as being a ghost. (Sorry for kind of double posting! My first comment didn't appear to have gone through... BUT it did indeed.)
kain_karasu
No worries, and there is a way for you to become intangible, albeit untested on living organisms. With a device that could cause rapid molecular vibration you could literally pass through anything...
