[QUOTE="Andor, post: 3569351, member: 1879"] Okay, this isn't particularly D&D related, but a lot of people here like playing with weird scenarios so I thought I'd throw this one out there. What if sometime in the near future, like next week, everyone in the world gains super powers? Over some short period of time everybody gains the ability to fly at up to a couple of hundred miles per hour, toughness sufficient to make all but the most powerfull small arms worthless against humans, sufficient super strength that we can hurt each other (or lift a car) and some other miscillaneous superpower of moderate strength which varies according to the wishes of that person. (I.E. They get the first other superpower the wish for.) What would happen going forward? Would it be wonderful? Would it be armaggedon? What would happen to the economy? The enviroment? Politically? Please discuss. :D * And to clarify, because I know this point will come up, military grade weaponry will still kill the average person. An M-16 won't work, but an RPG will. ** And yes I mean our world, not a D&D one. [/QUOTE]
