So a divine, nigh-omnipotent being descends from the sky; turns out it has Power bestowal in it's list of abilities, and wants to see what would happen if it gave every member of an entire sentient species (that's us) two non-divine superpowers of our choice. Most likely, there would be many people that wouldn't choose wisely, and/or simply choose generic powers like flight, telekinesis, pyrokinesis, super strength, etc. I assume the world would fall into chaos, there would be many civil wars, and ultimately a self-induced apocalypse. That said, if you were one of the more intelligent people to realize that this could be a huge possibility, and chose your 2 superpowers accordingly, then what would you choose?

There are a few rules and regulations to consider here:

-In the given situation, you would be given a single day's notice before you had to choose your abilities.

-You can't have any powers that could lead to omnipotence or nigh-omnipotence, whether directly or indirectly.

-No Almighty or absolute powers.

-No "omni-" powers.

-Physiology is allowed, but only involving none-divine entities.

-Immortality is allowed, but not true immortality or higher.

Personally, the two abilities I would choose would be Supernatural Condition and Immortality Removal since I guaruntee there will be plenty of people who will wish for immortality, then start thinking they can do anything they want. What would you do?

I would like to have:


 * Biological Manipulation : With this power I can achieve physical immortality, I can use my biology to program instantaneous regeneration, create weapons through my bones to battles, change my appearance for self-protection, change my genetics, create whips through my blood, let my body (skin, muscles and bones) so hard that can withstand gunfire and explosions, etc ...


 * Emotion Manipulation : So I can turn on / off my feelings when I want. For example, disabling pain during battles
