Which do you choose?

If there was a superhero or villain called Contrast what would be a good power for them?

I'll admit this sounds like this should be on a superhero themed subreddit but I'd figured it'd be okay since it does involve superpowers.

I had this random thought: "If there was a superhero/villain named Contrast what would their powers be?" The word means noticeably different, so what power would best portray that idea? I wanna hear what people come up with.

Was just thinking of how difficult it would be to not kill yourself with a "Momentum Control" type superpower. Would you accept this power if it meant you needed to learn it ASAP in order to use it in live mission scenarios? (involving some combat, exploration and/or search and rescue)

Note, the attached image is only one of the ways in which this power can be used. An instant momentum cancel would be a pretty basic maneuver for anyone with "Absolute Momentum Control" and it would also be one of the more dangerous tricks since failing to completely cancel your momentum could result in your brain getting crushed against your skull by its own momentum.

(I should also like to point out that the person on the right side is supposed to be an example of what happens when you cancel the momentum on your skin, skeleton and other external or near-external parts of your body but you fail to cancel momentum on your internal organs. Looking at it again, I can see it's a bit hard to tell what that image was supposed to represent.)

This power can of course be used to move yourself in any direction as well. And if you think of anything else that should theoretically be possible with "Absolute" control over momentum, then we can consider that a part of the power as well (within reason).

Pick 4 powers ( descriptions are in the body of the post)

Immortality - You cannot die. Any damage or injury will be healed in one minute. You will not grow old, If you are already old then you will become young and in your prime. Every billion years your existence causes the last billion years of entropy to be reversed universally without affecting anything else; This prevents the heat death of the universe but affords you no other benefit and you can decide not to activate the entropy reversal. If you have this power you can never die no matter what.

Invincibility - You are completely invincible and immune to all damage or pain. You do not grow tired and you do not need sustenance to sustain yourself. You are immune to any poison, disease, delusion, or supernatural force/power. You will still die of natural causes at the age you would have normally died but you will not grow old. Nothing can harm you and you never run out of energy. You can choose to feel pain or sadness if you want but can turn it off and on whenever.

Phase through objects- You have the ability to phase through objects. Once inside an object you can swim around like it is a liquid. Your ability to swim through objects is seamless and you can move 100 miles an hour through them which is enhanced by any other powers you might have of that effect speed. While inside of an object you can completely see through it like when you no-clip in a video game.

flight - you can fly similar to how superman does. You can do this with zero effort and the flying itself does not harm you. Your maximum air speed is 150,000 mph and your speed is not affected by gravity or air pressure or anything else while flying. While touching an object you can allow it to fly with you.

Super strength - You have 100 times the strength of a normal human and full control over the strength that you have. This makes you pretty much impervious to most physical damage and incredibly strong. There is also no risk that you will use your strength in ways that you did not intend because you have full control over it.

Super Speed - You have 200 times the normal speed of a human and also full control over it. This allows you to move incredibly fast.

teleportation - you can teleport anywhere at will. If you are touching an object or a person you can choose to have them teleport with you as well. The teleportation is instantaneous.

On command omniscience - With this power your cognitive abilities have no limit. Your mind now has infinite capacity for space and processing. You have full control over how you use this ability and can turn any and all aspects of the power on and off at will. You can gain whatever information you would like to know supernaturally by simply asking yourself a question. Whatever question you ask yourself you will immediately know the answer. You can also magically gain skills with this power. The power itself is supernatural but what it can do must follow the laws of science.

Shape shifting - You can shape shift into any animal or human or shape or change your appearance or body parts at will. You can make yourself up to 10 times smaller or larger and 10 times more or less dense.

Invisibility - You can go totally invisible and undetectable. No one will be able to see or hear you while you are invisible. You can even choose to reveal yourself to some people and remain hidden to others.

Mind control - You can control people's minds at will. You can force them to do or say or believe anything that you'd like them to. You can also control how they feel. As a passive ability nobody wants to harm you anymore; this does not extend to your loved ones however. You can turn this power's abilities on and off at will and can cancel and reinstate their effects whenever you'd like

The human Panacea - You can heal any disease or injury including your own. You must be within 100 yards, or be able to see the target either with your own eyes or over a live stream. You can also bring people back from the dead! Can't bring yourself back though.

Elemental powers - You have full control of and can generate an endless amount of water, air, fire, and lightning.

Time control- You can speed up or slow down time without limit. You can also reverse time but you can only go back as far as 24 hours; To picture how it works imagine you have a bank with 24 hours in it, Once you spend one of those hours you must wait an hour for that hour to come back, So technically you could repeat the same day over and over again but you could never go back farther than yesterday. If you speed up time to travel to the future you will still grow older and the world will move on without you, possibly leading to your death. You get older but you don't need sustenance while speeding up time.

Telekinesis- You have telekinesis powers and can lift up and move objects with your mind. You can lift objects up to 10,000 times your body weight. You have full control over how you manipulate these objects. You can fling them away from you at a speed of up to 100 miles an hour.

Technopathy- You have full control over devices. You can hack into them at will and you can even fly inside of them and operate them from the inside.

nature powers- You have a plethora of nature based powers. You can talk to animals and they will follow your commands and be your friends. You can also talk to plants and grow them rapidly. You can end pollution and terraform planets. You have full control over plants and plant by-products.

Precognition- You can see the future and are alerted to danger before it happens like Spidey senses. This ability gives you unmatched reflexes. You can react to things before they even happen. You can see up to two weeks into the future.

Supervision- This power allows you to see through objects and analyze them completely. It can show you the weak spots of a structure. You can even use it on people to see into their mind. This power also allows you to scan for biological life or objects that you are looking for.

Pocket dimension- This power gives you a pocket dimension that you can access and enter at any time, that gives you infinite storage. Inside the pocket dimension you cannot be killed or harmed and time is stopped for the outside world while you are inside of it from your perspective. You can still grow old and die of old age while inside the pocket dimension so you can't just live there forever. Unless you're immortal that is. The pocket dimension is infinite and you can put whatever you like in there. While inside the Pocket Dimension you can also spawn up to 10 mundane items a day. These items can be anything that you could find at a store.

Illusions- You have the ability to create powerful and convincing illusions. It's only illusions though they can't actually touch anyone but they can make people believe that they're being touched. This power can be used to drive people crazy, give them delusions of grandeur, or make them feel good, etc. There is no limit to whatever illusion you can create, you just have to think it up.

Object animation- This power allows you to bring inanimate objects to life and have them work as your servants. You cannot bring to life objects that are larger than a mountain. Once they are brought to life they can think and feel and move. You have full control over this ability and cannot accidentally bring things. If you would like any of your creations to go back to where they were you can snap them back into place or have them fall apart where they are.

Cloning - You can create up to 100 clones of yourself. Each clone can work independently or in tandem with you. They all share your core goals and mindset. Whenever you choose for a clone to disappear, its memories and knowledge will enter your body as if you lived the life that the clone did. You have full control over what the clones do.

Matter transmutation - You can alter the molecular structure of objects that you touch. You can change wood into steel for example or lead into gold. You can even create new elements that haven't been discovered yet. The power does not work on organic life forms.

Super elastic - You can stretch and grow your body like an elastic person. You take no damage from stretching and can stretch yourself around the entire world three times but you get thinner as you stretch. You can slip through tight gaps.

Purple - (This one is not shown in the image) You become completely purple. Your clothes and every object you own becomes completely purple. You shit solid gold but it does not hurt. You also constantly smell like lavender and people generally seem to like you about 10% more than they used to.

Just one thing or two about New Order

I usually don't like reality warpers bc I find this power set completely boring and is basically just omnipotent giving to people but Star & Stripes is more interesting among people like Wanda & Franklin Richards cause she isn't 'just born with good genes now I have limitless power' I like how Hori made reality warping have extreme amounts of limits (even tho he himself break them while written this character).

First : She needs to touch something to alter it.

Second : She needs to call out the correct name of the thing she wants to alter.

Third : The Rule is as Potent depend on her life meter (whatever that is) [she has like this meter on how hard she can push new order but it's very forgettable aspect of her power]

Neither the less I will say that Hori broke the first rule of her power when she said the light is hold able I don't know about you guys but last I checked she needs to ACTUALLY HOLD SOMETHING first to be able to give it a rule but okay.

If Star can give rules to things even if she can't physically touch them that means she could reverse entropy (the secound rule of thermodynamics) which means she can give localized rewind reverting Shigiraki back to season 1 or revive people from the dead or alter vectors like accelerator.

tributes

if you were in the world of sense life what would your tributes be and if you don't know what a tributes is I'll put what it is and there's a Acting as the dark counterpart to tributes called Debts (Dívidas) and what they do

Tributes (Tributos): Powers are typically awakened following a major trauma or emotional turning point, most notably the loss of a loved one. The unfulfilled dreams, expectations, or final wishes of the deceased are transferred to the survivor, manifesting as a unique supernatural ability that usually mirrors a charitable or deeply emotional intent.

Debts (Dívidas): Acting as the dark counterpart to tributes, debts function more like toxic curses born from negative, destructive emotions left behind or inflicted by others.
