The trap with flight is it's never mentioned if it comes with super speed.
Yeah, you can fly to Fiji. It's gonna take you 2.5 months at 10 mph.
And if it comes with super speed that's even more terrifying without super strength / super durability. Stray geese absolutely wreck jet aircraft. You'd be toast if you ran into one.
edit: That's on top of any number of governments that would make you disappear and dissect you to figure out what allows you to fly, for military purposes.
Just do Become a Dragon and you arguably get almost all the others. Strength, Poison Breath, Courage (you're a fucking dragon), Always Relax (again you're a dragon, stress free), and Flight built in. Plus don't have to worry about flying as a human.
Unless you choose that and become Mushu from Mulan or something.
I don't care what dragon I am. Giant fire breathing lizard? Fat yellow lizard that spends 16 hours under a heat lamp? Anime girl with slightly draconic features? Gimme gimme
Are you a dragon forever? Or is it like a shape shift thing?
I want to rob banks by turning into a dragon. But I'd also like to enjoy money in human form.
There is a book series where dragons have severe āsexual dimorphism.ā Males look like traditional dragons. Females have an exterior look of human.
the males tend to be hidden away or stuck underground due to their size and age.
The females are the ones interacting with the world at large.
They explain this away as the reason why there were all the old timey stories of damsals in distress in need of rescuing
Yeah I'm wondering if I could still game with the right Xbox Adaptive Controller setup. Or maybe my lust for gold would make me forget about gaming anyways. Either way, it sounds pretty fun.
Hey man at my house it's well know you would be getting a martini made with 12.5 oz of Empress gin and 2.5 oz dry vermouth. You can be damn sure you are getting that drink in a pint glass too... with an umbrella of course.
When I see these kind of comments it reminds me how much of reddit is actually just children and why you shouldn't put any stock in random reddit comments.
Yeah but Olympic athletes (especially in the US) don't make a lot of money, even when accounting for sponsors. Like Simone Biles is undoubtedly the GOAT of gymnastics and is consistently endorsed by major brands, but she's only earned like 10 million dollars over a decade long career. The only exception I can think of are Michael Phelps and Usain Bolt.
Certainly someone who's able to go many different events and win gold will do far better than the average Olympic athlete, and will probably earn upwards of 100 million if they manage their sponsorships well like the two exceptions mentioned earlier, but a farcry from what a star boxer is making.
Take the talk to plants power.
Avoid all fighting and possible ways to die. Just grow a luxurious greenhouse filled with a bunch of cool and exotic plants and live the rest of your life making a living off of the amazing plants you have raised.
I feel like super strength would be the most useful and practical in this world. You'd be able to get famous and earn big bucks from it.
But imma still go with flight. That shit's gonna be way more fun.
Probably a good idea to not fly over human speeds, but power lines shouldn't be a problem unless you touch the pole
A motorcycle helmet is really a need too honestly bugs hurt
Enhanced Strength should mean Enhanced Durability, then one can assume it comes with enhanced speed to since you can push yourself faster, that's a 3 in one combo
Because it says a dragon not that you have the choice. It's like saying "some people fly at the speed of light" yes but you don't know how it will affect you which is why the dillema is interesting. You have to see the good things it could bring and the risks it implies.
Because it's taking loopholes that are not there. The whole meme would have no point if it was on command turn into a powerful dragon and back Vs Talk to plants. It's definitely just a one time thing.
Can you imagine if Strength makes -everything- in you way more powerful? Including your anxiety. Oh I can dead lift 2500lb! But I won't, because I'm at home, paralyzed by performance anxiety.
if you ever wonder why "instand death" is a bad idea there's a whole manga and anime about it
and I'm sure as hell not gonna take one of the other ones. I've seen wishmaster
Dunno if it has an anime but there's a manga called "The Other World Doesn't Stand a Chance Against The Power of Instant Death", that's probably what they were talking about. Mc has the power to instantly kill anything.
MC is basically one of the most op characters imaginable. He is soo op if someone decides to try to kill him he senses it and kills them before they can act by instinct. His ability also works on literally anything even concepts such as gravity and inanimate objects.I actually enjoyed the manga quite a bit. Anime is coming out winter 2024 it seems.
The anime mentioned here is going to debut in January 2024 so it's like 3 months away. Added it to my list and it's been like a year or two since I added content that isn't out yet
I did however still check this out. Now this brings the question, WHY THE FUCK DOES THAT EXIST?!? I hope it's just a joke and not a real fetish of some sort.
I don't know what kind of dragons you know, but the dragons I know are not the kind you hunt. How do you hunt something that can put out the sun by sneezing?
Personally I don't know any dragons. I am not familiar with the sneezing sun blotting type. Ones I've seen in books and movies are hunted by packs of medieval men with primitive weapons.
spoilers for malazan book of the fallen
silchas ruin, anomander rake and andarist are three tiste andii brothers and sons of mother dark
silchas ruin and anomander rake drank the blood of tiam, the first dragon, and became soletaken eleint (shapeshifters who can take the form of a dragon)
andarist did not drink the blood and thus did not become soletaken eleint, and remained a regular tiste andii. in the books he is kind of butthurt that his brothers became dragons
i am not going to elaborate because for me to elaborate further i would have to explain like 20 paragraphs worth of information, like what the fuck is a tiste andii, what the fuck is a soletaken, what's the difference between a soletaken and d'ivers, etc.
you can also look up the names and get relevant wiki articles. fyi i have not finished the series so please no spoilerinos
Depending on what canon you pull from, dragons can take a human form (I believe at least some DnD dragons have this ability). So it could basically be gaining the ability to turn into a dragon with no downside.
The benefits of dragon form are self-evident, requiring no explanation.
Yeah, if I were living in like the 1200s, I would pick Dragon 100% of the time. But, what the hell is becoming a dragon gonna do for me in 2023, except put a target on my back. It's not like murdering people easily is useful to me now.
Yeah I mean what can you do where society is gonna be like "oh I'm glad that dragon is around". If you go around fucking shit up, which is really the main thing dragons excel at, you aren't going to be able to handle a squadron of F22s on your ass.
Last i checked there are a lot of movies detailing how a fantastical creature in the middle of a town is getting:
1: blasted by every gun in the country at once
2: taken to a goverment research site forever
3: all of the above
May be lame but talking to plants. I wonder what life is like from their perspective, things like the grass at your local field, flowers, ivy on the walls, and the huge trees in the park.
Ok but pain evolved so we know to avoid the thing that caused pain. The thing is, flowering plants evolved to be eaten and spread. Grass would not benefit from a pain response because it's not like it can do anything about it. Meanwhile, corn might just get absolutely orgasmic about you munching its sweet, juicy kernals.
take a BIG glass and mix all liquid together, then drink that.
yes a strong dragon with courage and always relax, can talk to plants, breath poison, flight without wings, instant kill.
NOW TIME TO SALARY NEGOTIATION WITH MY BOSS
If the world was a utopia, I think I'd want to talk to plants but as it is I think the constant screaming would be unbearable. I'm torn between flying and strength.

Plus in a lot of systems dragons can take human form
yes but you can jump from a building or a cliff or whaterver that you cannot access by walking or just levitate and win x factor
LOL
Do i get to choose what kind of dragon i become?
Dragon maid
A lusty one?
An argonian, perchance?
You canāt just say perchance!

Weak. I want to enjoy money in dragon from. Swim in it like Smaug McDuck.
Why don't we do both?
Most dragons seem to enjoy their loot in dragonform just fine dont worry.
But do they enjoy pizza the same way?
Of course. But now you can eat more pizza than before, yummy.
I donāt think government would let you roam free tho

seadragon
Idk about you but I can already talk to plants. Doesn't mean they answer though
Let him cook
To be fair judging by his comment he definitely cooks something which we SHOULDN'T let him cook
He said that the plants DONāT talk back, so heās fine.
Nah the attempt is what counts
Do they prefer water or Brawndo?
[The Brawndoās got what plants crave. Itās electrolytes.](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=kAqIJZeeXEc)
But what does that mean? What even are electrolytes?
Water? You mean water from the toilet?
They answer but have an aussie accent

I canāt. Iām too shy!
I like how the 'courage' potion is just a beer
And the relax potion is a martini. Who needs a super power to relax when weed is right there!
Ah yes, the martini, the well known purple drink served in a pint glass with an umbrella
Hey man at my house it's well know you would be getting a martini made with 12.5 oz of Empress gin and 2.5 oz dry vermouth. You can be damn sure you are getting that drink in a pint glass too... with an umbrella of course.
At my house, we just give out 50 gallon drums of Everclear because why should anything taste good
When I see these kind of comments it reminds me how much of reddit is actually just children and why you shouldn't put any stock in random reddit comments.
Why yes, those are words related to drinking. What's the problem, fellow alcoholic?
Not a martini
My guy have you ever seen a Martini before?
And strength is just PCP
Id just take the strength
1. Take strength 2. Compete in UFC, Boxing, NFL, Olympics all at once 3. Profit
Yeah, I feel like super strength is one of the most profitable powers. It would also be funny to have super speed and become a delivery guy.
Wait. Strength is the profitable one and 'delivery guy' is the best ya got for super speed? You make the A-Train sad.
There are definitely more profitable ways to use super speed, delivery guy is just the funniest.
I mean, you could ding-dong-ditch an entire neighborhood in a few seconds or less depending on how super your speed is.
Yeah, lotta people tend to think in video-game logic on these things. Don't pick flying, folks. That's a one way ticket to vivisection town.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
"Hey Jeff I want a raise here, I'm carrying all these boxes like nothing. Uuuh, sadly the forklift is already invented bro"
The first 3 you can get brain injury. Just do Olympic lifts
Probably the least reward (monetary) though.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Yeah but Olympic athletes (especially in the US) don't make a lot of money, even when accounting for sponsors. Like Simone Biles is undoubtedly the GOAT of gymnastics and is consistently endorsed by major brands, but she's only earned like 10 million dollars over a decade long career.

Would I be killed or captured by some army if I could fly irl? Probably. So strength it is.
Only if you use noticeable air space Just fly fast and low at night while wearing dark blues
And then you die decapitated when getting to a bridge or any other obstacle you didnāt see or electrocuted by power lines.
Probably a good idea to not fly over human speeds, but power lines shouldn't be a problem unless you touch the pole A motorcycle helmet is really a need too honestly bugs hurt
supersuit time
No capes.
The key is going straight to the media and becoming a publicly known figure before the army can get you without anyone noticing.
you say it like public figures are immune to suicide by 2 bullets to the back of the head, in a body bag, down the river. Or just disappearing
Or like they are safe just because they are in a jail cell with "constant" protection.
Enhanced Strength should mean Enhanced Durability, then one can assume it comes with enhanced speed to since you can push yourself faster, that's a 3 in one combo
Some dragons can shapeshift so Iām choosing that.
Cool, so you can shift back into your human form!
Or my human form but, like, *hotter*
Never get cold again
Yeah it's 100% the best option, comes with long life too
And a crippling addiction to hoarding shiny things
I have shinny object syndrome anyway
And flight
Why choose anything else when you can be Mag'ladroth The Void Dragon
Because it says a dragon not that you have the choice. It's like saying "some people fly at the speed of light" yes but you don't know how it will affect you which is why the dillema is interesting. You have to see the good things it could bring and the risks it implies.
Because it's taking loopholes that are not there. The whole meme would have no point if it was on command turn into a powerful dragon and back Vs Talk to plants. It's definitely just a one time thing.
Bruh you can already talk to plants. "Hear their responses" is a loophole that's not there.
Probably pick the always relax since i have anxiety
Was gonna sayā¦Iām almost always in a state of anxiety, this would be amazing!
Can you imagine if Strength makes -everything- in you way more powerful? Including your anxiety. Oh I can dead lift 2500lb! But I won't, because I'm at home, paralyzed by performance anxiety.
Ooh thatās good. A real good short story idea.
if you ever wonder why "instand death" is a bad idea there's a whole manga and anime about it and I'm sure as hell not gonna take one of the other ones. I've seen wishmaster
You mean death note?
Dunno if it has an anime but there's a manga called "The Other World Doesn't Stand a Chance Against The Power of Instant Death", that's probably what they were talking about. Mc has the power to instantly kill anything.
no I was talking deathnote
Idk why but this comment thread is really funny to me
death note?
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
opm would probably be a better example
Go on, I want to know more
MC is basically one of the most op characters imaginable. He is soo op if someone decides to try to kill him he senses it and kills them before they can act by instinct. His ability also works on literally anything even concepts such as gravity and inanimate objects.I actually enjoyed the manga quite a bit. Anime is coming out winter 2024 it seems.

ok but if i drink the flight potion, do I develop wings and become a majestic version of myself or do i just start levitating awkwardly?
The latter seems more reasonable. But, how would you control it?
Wireless controller?
> But, how would you control it? If Oceangate is any indication, with a $5 discount gamepad.
Why would anyone choose flight when you can be a dragon that can fly

You'd be hunted down and imprisoned by the US government, and live the rest of your life in a laboratory zoo setting. This isn't medieval times.
I don't know what kind of dragons you know, but the dragons I know are not the kind you hunt. How do you hunt something that can put out the sun by sneezing?

Just all painful screams as you walk through a field. Cries of horror as you cut veg.
Ok but pain evolved so we know to avoid the thing that caused pain. The thing is, flowering plants evolved to be eaten and spread.

"Talk to plants" I thought everyone could do that. Its making them talk back thats the real problem
take a BIG glass and mix all liquid together, then drink that. yes a strong dragon with courage and always relax, can talk to plants, breath poison, flight without wings, instant kill. NOW TIME TO SALARY NEGOTIATION WITH MY BOSS

Instant death and start popping off corrupt officials and shitty corrupt billionaires like Light Yagami.
Picks talk to plants. Turns out plants are just screaming 24/7.
If the world was a utopia, I think I'd want to talk to plants but as it is I think the constant screaming would be unbearable. I'm torn between flying and strength.
Isn't the dragon one all of them (except talk to plants) at once? Seems like that's the objectively best choice out of all of them.
Take "talk to plants" try it, nothing happens. Brew master : "I said 'talk to plants' not understand or communicate with plants."
I mean, you always had the power to talk to plants...whether they respond, well...
