If you could choose to change your body for any other form that you could imagine what would it be? or even would you?

Myself, i would become a Centaur, ive always felt closer to horses then anything else, including humans, they combined the grace,speed and agility of horses with speach, apposable thumb of humans, and to have a tail is one of the coolest things in the world :P

What would you choose?

A neverending rain of pastry!

TwoBitWriter
2008-07-09, 12:08 PM
Heh, a shower of gold seemed to work for Zeus, father of the gods. I'm sure a shower of pastry would just as effective, only more yummy.

I think I would go for a space alien, so I would know what they look like.

Silence
2008-07-09, 12:12 PM
Odd question...

I don't see a reason to make myself massively different. I would just add a little muscle mass and good looks, but nothing really groundbreaking.

Paladin29
2008-07-09, 12:16 PM
a werewolf would be cool :smallsmile:

Tempest Fennac
2008-07-09, 12:39 PM
I'd go with a humanoid fennec fox form (as you can guess, fennecs are pretty much my most favourite animal).

ForzaFiori

I'd just make myself a better body for CC and Soccer. oh, and a bit better looking.

A Squirrel!

I'd be paid Nuts! to code and I'd be happy.

Ilena
2008-07-09, 01:41 PM
You know that would be really cool to see, a squirrel running aorund on a keyboard coding a program or something for payment of nuts ... people in the background watching this .. someone goes to approach ... the guy beside him stops him, and says, dont interupt his concentration .. he'll freak out on ya man ... freak out ...

(yeah, I'm the kind that'd wish for a million wishes)

TigerHunter
2008-07-09, 01:47 PM
I don't think I would, except maybe to get rid of my acne and lose that excess fat. I couldn't stand losing human fingers, and I don't really have any motivation to become some sort of demi-human.

Mordokai

A slightly better looking version of me?

That pretty much covers it, yes.

Telonius
2008-07-09, 02:11 PM
Minor tweaks to the existing model. Improved sight and hearing functionality, nothing else otherwise. So yeah, Tel 1.1 would be it.

Austran

Heh, a shower of gold seemed to work for Zeus, father of the gods. I'm sure a shower of pastry would just as effective, only more yummy.

I always thought a golden shower was an odd way to seduce a mortal woman.

Anyways, I'd go for a spirit of knowledge and/or a mage.

I always thought a golden shower was an odd way to seduce a mortal woman.

I don't know how much people around here are up on modern slang but... well, let's just say you probably shouldn't Google that exact wording. :smallwink:


I don't really care about making myself look better, but I might drop a little weight and fix my eyes a little (though not enough to get rid of my glasses - I'd feel lost without them).

Also, a prehensile tail. That'd be freakin' sweet.

Thufir
2008-07-09, 03:01 PM
If it's permanent, I don't know if I would. I might stop my facial hair from growing so I wouldn't have to shave any more, maybe some minor changes in appearance, but I'm pretty happy with being me. If, on the other hand, I could pick another form and I'd be able to change between normal and the other form at will, that would be a different matter.

averagejoe

Zeb The Troll
2008-07-10, 06:09 AM
I've always wanted to be a dragon. Not some color coded Monstrous Manual thing, but like the one in Dragonheart. Although the shapeshifting of the MM ones would be cool.

Blayze
2008-07-10, 12:21 PM
Like what was said before, a shape-shifter. Then I could change my form to anything I want... Hopefully via the aid of a GUI.

"Okay, I'll bump up all my stats to 25, give myself every Feat I want and max out every skill and derived stat... Now let's see what happens to my love life now that I've got 25 Charisma and Constitution."

Athaniar
2008-07-10, 02:10 PM
As said previously, a shapeshifter. Capabale of shifting into any form, perfectly. In that way, you can just change back if you don't like a form.

Jibar

Haruki-kun
2008-07-10, 03:31 PM
I think my Avatar pretty much sums it up: Angel form with white wings, Long hair, good shape... getting the blue clothes would be a plus.

@Jibar: A cupcake? :smallsmile:

Griever
2008-07-10, 03:46 PM
Much akin to Haruki-kun, just not so angelic- White wings, grey hair and a big damn masume.

Tom_Violence

I'm guessing we're not talking about the giant sandworm thing here, no? Shame. That would be pretty cool.

I'll forgive your ignorance if you forgive my lack of ability to spell.

Masamune is the correct spelling *coughs*

In particular the one pictured here. (http://www.bluelionheart.com/props/auronlongsword/Auron%204.jpg)

I'd imagine entirely unwieldable, but I still like it :smallsmile:

KingGolem
2008-07-10, 08:16 PM
Yeah, I'd go for the form of my avatar as well: human with solid yellow eyes, wings covered in sharp iron-grey feathers, and the physique of a Greek god. :smallcool:

However, unlike my avatar, I would look approximately 40 years old with long hair and an awesome dwarf beard. :smallbiggrin:

Just thinking about more realistic options, Id love to be able to stop growing facial hair while keeping my head-hair at the same length as it is now. I'd also love to have normal 20-20 vision (my glasses get smudged a lot, and I'm really short-sighted).

oddly enough everything aside from hair length being the same, i agree with all of the above, it would just happen when i change to a centaur though! :P well a Dragon would also be nice, as long as i had the ability to shape shift, it would be awesome to fly, and be that big flying!

I'd go for the "no acne, less fat, slightly better looking" approach then at (scaled in muscle mass and size without being too ridiculous) wings. Big, luxurious, white, feathery ones. That, or make me a confusing vampire that can exist in daylight, but can only manifest his powers at night. With all of the aforementioned traits too of course.

Realistic: Straight hair, less damn acne, less skinny. OK, straightish hair, At least less poofy. Actually, if I tie it in a ponytail, than yeah, straight.

Even more realistic: Dave Vanian, the singing vampire who heads the punk band the Damned. http://www.ukrockfestivals.com/The-Damned.jpg

Slightly less realistic: A changeling.

I would change my avvie, but I've grown attached to the Gwynskull.

Erm, gills( shark style, around the end of my ribs), hinged arm bones allowing for sudden and disturbing tripling in arm length, an extra finger and an extra joint on each finger.

That's about it for now. Oh, less freckly and more tanny. Sunshine-> tan, not sunshine-> skin cancer.

Lord Fullbladder, Master of Goblins
2008-07-22, 11:04 PM
The perfect shapeshifter for me, too. Specifically one that can alter its body in mass and on both genetic and molecular levels. And understand how to use each form I assume.

You have to be specific about these things. Genies are nortoriously tricky. They'd probably give you the ability to turn into a blue-skinned person at will and call you a shapeshifter. It'd be technically correct.

I'd go for a Dragon, since most of them, in many mythologies, can change to other forms. Also dragons are just that cool. If I had limited forms, I'd go for the whole weredragon thing, a human form, a hybrid form, and a dragon form, able to switch at will, though not instantly.

Or I might just fix the things wrong with my normal form, straighten my oft-broken nose, fix my teeth, make my hair and beard (though it's still a stretch to call it that) stop growing at the exact lenght I want it, etc.

Na, Weredragon all the way!

For non-magical: I'd change into a cute young girl (18-20ish) of about 5'3" and 92 lbs with perky boobs (C cup). With long strawberry-blonde hair, down to my cute behind. Big vibrant green eyes, and straight white (not bright) teeth. Oh and freckles. I love freckles.:smallbiggrin:

Yeah, a shapeshifter'd be good. Also one with infinite lifespan, and impossible to die unless I really want to. Of course able to change into anything at all and gaining all necessary skills for that form when I change. That'd pretty much cover it. :smallwink:
