I think I just became a God.

EDIT: Though I could create a mini-me with the power of eye color changing or something. Hmm, maybe I could at least inherit a LUTAS membership by proxy.

Magnetic Ball Projection
The user can create and launch spheres of magnetism though normally on it's own it doesn't do any damage, however it does allow them to immobilize the opponent by magnetizing them to any magnetic surface or object and make the enemy more "attractable" by causing magnetic objects to fly towards them.
Oh yeah. Fear my balls. They're magnetic!

Army Annihilation

The ability to completely destroy enemy armies. Combination of One-Man Army and Ultimate Invincibility.

Capability: If the user possesses exceptional skill or strength, they can single-handedly raze entire enemy armies, however this does not mean that the user can destroy armies with astronomical figures in one day.


Basically, you know the 'Neo vs. a billion Agent Smiths; Neo wins' scene? I do that now. So, I can be everybody's supervillain.

Yeah... But it merely says that you can use your own abilities to destroy entire armies. What if your only special ability is the ability to live a really long time?

Although the "heart of pure apathy" has it's potential. Pure of heart enough to use any of the associated uber-artifacts, but just doesn't care. It's probably enough qualify for one of the super-groups, but the application process is such a bother. And then they'd want you to actually do something...

It would be, except for the fact that the power merely says I'd have an extended human lifespan, not a cosmic one.
So, for about one to two hundred years I'm the world's oldest living person, and then I eventually die.

Amateur. With that kind of ability, you could call your future self and ask for some lottery numbers to pick, and instantly be set for life. And that's on the extreme small end of the scale of what can be accomplished with it.

I that whomever has won the lottery before me must now bow before me. (ok, except for reliable and precise time travel)

I could go at the speed of light if I turn myself into an energy wave, travel and back again (as part of the doctrine that matter has both a particle form and a wave form). I could even be my own radio
