Magneto. I thought long and hard about this before, often wanting the telekenetic powers too, but Magneto is ultimately and arguably, the most powerful super hero/villian ever (and being able to control anything metal is similar to telekinesis anyway. Just the ability to control magnetic fields alone gives you access to alot of things and possibilities, both good and dastardly, small, and world-devestating. He also has fairly strong psychic powers himself and the ability to read minds and shield himself from the same (even without his helmet, he only ever needs the helmet to block our Charles Xavier and stronger psychics like him, others he can deal with without the aid of the helmet.)
I'd want to model myself after Eric (Magneto) except I wouldn't have his mentality. Because my powers are superior to most other heros or villians and I do not live within society or a city I wouldn't need to wear a mask or conceal my identity as theres no danger to not concealing it, though as stated, I'd need a way to block out strong psychic attacks, so maybe a helmet like Magneto as well. I'd definitely wear a large cape, but my costume would be darker colors, not red like his. I'd imagine I'd be neutral, so as to allow balance to exist in the world. I would work with other superheros or even supervillians, but only if it was truely necessary to restore order or stop something that would cause chaos (like a world war), as soon as its over, so is our alliance. Co-existances would be allowed, but I'd imagine being as strong and powerful as I would be, there would be other superheros/supervillians (and the militaries of the world) that would want to take me out(or get me to work for them) or keep me under control knowing all to well that if I wanted to, on a whim, I could could destroy them all. Like Magneto, I'd be an army in and of myself. Being able to also hover and fly, like Magneto, would be both convienient and beneficial.
It would be cool to be the Master of Magnetism. Its both an offensive, defensive, and counter-offensive power. Its a very well-rounded power and has the ability to manipulate practically anything, even on grand scales if enough power is conducted.
I'd probably have a secret base too and live a solitary life, often dodging detection and location sweeps. My base of operations would probably be mobile therefore. Being who and what I am I wouldn't be able to have personal relationships with other heros or villians because my duty of keeping balance means I have to try and be impartial in everything. I would serve in a way the rest don't have to because they're either evil or good, not both like me. I'd be willing to have this power, but with it, the responsibility as well.
I'd imagine other heros would want to try and mind control me and use me for their own ends and some that would try to insist I should join their cause on a perminent basis. If a greater power came about, like aliens or something, and they were invincible against my particular power and I was therefore robbed of my ability (against them anyway) to maintain order and balance in the world I'd obviously have to team up.
Naturally of course, that would lead to relationships, even personal relationships, and I might just fall in love with another superhero and they might convince me I don't have to take all the burden of maintaining order on my shoulders and to trust other people, other heros to help in doing that.
Therefore, my stationary, mobile life would no longer be necessary.
I get the feeling because of my popularity/charisma I'd probably end up in a love triangle. Sort of like the whole Scott/Jean/Logan one. While this one may not work out for me, another relationship might. Anyways, I'm thinking too much into it now. 😛
