What would you spend 1000 pts on?

[Joe]

A couple of years back I started a thread called What would you spend 10 pts on?. It ended up being quite fun. Since then, I've obviously acquired Greed [-15].

If you could add 1000 points to your real-life character sheet, what would you get?

Supernatural advantages are fine; but no obviously munchkinly moves allowed. The GM is watching :)

To be honest, I'd probably just blow 'em at the track.

[sir_pudding]

Quick Gadgeteer, Multimillionaire (lots) and IQ 20. Now I can invent a machine to do whatever else it is I need.

[GodBeastX]

Enhanced Movement 25 with Cosmic Instant Max speed and Maneuverability. Then I could run at the speed of light at full control instantly.

[gilbertocarlos]

IQ20, after that I'll be better at choosing the rest.

If I'm limited to a single ability, probably some level of Cosmic Power. Otherwise it becomes a mess -- 200 points each into IQ and Wealth are the biggest obvious purchases, but there are many smaller purchases that also make sense.

I might take an IQ boost along with multiple levels of Magery and Mana Enhancer (if needed for this world), and plenty of spells of course.

Charmed Life* [318]
Healing Saint** [402]
Ideal Form*** [28]
See the Future**** [252]
TOTAL: 1000 points

* Charmed Life: Independent Income 20 [20] + Serendipity 7 (Game Time, +0%) [105] + Serendipity 1 (Cosmic, Can produce anything possible, not just plausible, +50%; Game Time, +0%; Wishing, +100%) [38] + Social Chameleon [5] + Wealth (Multimillionaire 4) [150].

Notes: I have $20B in reserves and $4B to spend each month. I only live at Status 3 but my Social Chameleon lets me avoid penalties from the high-Stats rich for that. In addition, the universe will do something wonderful for me once per day (on average), while once per week my most fervently held wish will come true. 318 points.

** Healing Saint: Healing (Affects Self, +50%; Cosmic, No die roll required, +100%; Cure Affliction, +60%; Reduced Fatigue Cost 20, +400%; Reliable 10, +50%; Restore Limbs, +80%) [252] + High Pain Threshold [10] + Immunity to Metabolic Hazards [30] + Unkillable 2 (Switchable, +10%) [110].

Notes: I'll live as long as I wish and ignore daily hazards, and I can keep myself and my friends alive through pretty much anything short of instant death. 402 points.

*** Ideal Form: Appearance (Handsome) [12] + Sanitized Metabolism [1] + Very Fit [15].

Notes: I still look like myself, just idealized a bit and in perfect shape, without the need for constant exercise. 28 points.

**** See the Future: Common Sense (Conscious, +50%; Cosmic, PM, +50%; Cosmic, No die roll required, +100%) [30] + Intuition (Cosmic, PM, +50%; Cosmic, No die roll required, +100%; Inspired, +100%; Reliable 10, +50%) [60] + Precognition (Cosmic, PM, +50%; Cosmic, No die roll required, +100%; Directed, +100%; Reduced Fatigue Cost 2, +40%; Reduced Time 10, +200%; Reflexive, +40%; Reliable 8 limited by Active Only, +16%) [162].

Notes: Gives me perfect Common Sense, Danger Sense, and Intuition and lets me know the answer to basically any question about the future. I'll know about trends and dangers well in advance. The PM is to bypass any mundane countermeasures (spells, etc.) that I may not know about. 252 points.

Surely just buying Very Fit doesn't make you immune to the need to maintain it? Otherwise once someone got it they could stop working out and keep it. I think you'd need a Rules Excemption or something for that.

Unaging, Cosmic Unkillable 3, IQ boost (from whatever I am now to 20), and use those smarts to get the most out of what's left.
