    Gravel ofc. Just imagine being able to provide every construction site on earth with cheap gravel with no cost at all. I’d be the first billionaire on earth who didn’t fuck other people over to be absurdly rich.

      Thought the same thing but it doesn’t say how the gravel is obtained. I assume there’s still going to be transportation costs and “life” could be as short as how long it takes to be smothered by a heap of free gravel. I am suspicious.

    3 for sure. Depending on how teleporting into other objects works, and how fast you can spam it, you could get some serious work done with a power like that.

      When you play Noita you discover that the way to move fast is to teleport shorter distance possible and spam it. It is also better for avoiding obstacles

    3 or 7.

    Doesn’t mention any cooldown on the teleport so I could probably spam it which would make it useful.

    7 sounds stupid but it could be actually useful in some situations.

      Most humans can already teleport 7 inches instantly… It’s called walking. The free gravel is where it’s at!

    “What is the meaning of toaster?” Is a powerful question. Either able to push buttons and push levers down if the intent is toasting bread, or making a heat coil glow with the intent of cooking bread. Either way, the nuclear industry would be ratically altered. Theres also just a industrial toast factory secretly sponsored by big “nuclear” deticated to making, shipping and toasting bread as slowly as possable. With propaganda for toast simmar to “Got Milk?”

    A manga artist would find a way to make one of these the most op power in their entire universe. “I can fill anyones lungs with gravel with just a thought” or " i teleported 5 cms into you and severed a nerve in your spine that paralyzes you for life"

      Hopefully it’s a7 inch gap, if it’s 7 inches from center mass you’re not really fully shifting position.

        And the minute you do it wrong you’ve fused with a fence or a steel door or something and are probably dead so it would require a ton of practice to know your limits

          Being able to teleport into a region already containing air without creating a nuclear blast requires that you can already either instantly displace the air in the target region (which would make a Very Loud Noise) or switch places with it, so there are possible interpretations of the power where teleporting into a fence would leave behind a detached section of fence or bend it out of your way

            I think I’m normal teleporting scenarios it doesn’t allow you to teleport into ‘objects’, though obviously there has to be some exception for air or it’s basically worthless. I don’t think I’ve ever seen any scenario where you displace anything other than gas?

              You would still need to be able to displace suspended particles, bacteria, and small insects, otherwise you wouldn’t be able to teleport outside of a clean room

    I feel as though there is money making opportunity in 8. The language is dead? Nobody alive who can speak the language, so I’d have more or less free reign to profit off of being the only person who could speak it.

    Gravel is expensive if you’re doing a lot of landscaping. I’ll supply all of the entrepeneurs in the area and make a fortune.

    Number 7 might let you cheat at some carnival/gambling games. Which of these 1000 boxes has the million dollars in it? The one I can’t see through, of course!

      But… no container is truly empty.
      Usually they contain air, but even in space there’d be one or two molecules banging around inside.
      You’d never see anything.

    Would need the details on some of these.

    • The empty container depends on the definition of “container” and “empty”. If a house is a container for people it’s easy to rob when empty. If you have to be looking at an airless vacuum it’s dogshit. Otherwise I’m sure you could make money with a creative gambling scheme.
    • Gravel for life, like an infinite bucket full? Or the typical “for life” shit where you just get one trailer full dumped in your driveway every year for 60 years. Probably an overrated pick.
    • Teleporting is almost certainly the best pick. Is there a cool down? Do you keep momentum? Can it be in any direction? Does it take the same effort as walking? If you can spam it at the speed thought, you’re now flying. Even with a CD you could be a world class athlete in a lot of sports. Or just do simple stuff like reach a high shelf or teleport out of handcuffs.

      Teleporting out of you handcuffs also implies you’d lose your clothes every time you teleport.
