Try to stay away from using "having all powers". You know set up a little story as well like origin and how you'd use them. Just curious and thanks ahead of time  :)

I want two superpowers, one "semi major" and the other one minor

 

Super speed and agility, basically Shigure level, or just Miu level would do.

 

Strength and body density is something that I have figured out a very effective way to train for, but I can't get a grasp of acrobatics no matter what I do (I gave up Aikido and because I could not even fall properly), so that superpower will fix that weakness.

 

The minor superpower is to be able to rest and heal (normal human rate) with very little to no sleep.

 

Then the reign of BatKensei will begin!

 

Backstory: bullied, nerdy kid in a poor slum in Asia, grew up with a very grim outlook on life and a very keen understanding of life's unfairness. Then one day, he got pissed off enough to start training. It's either training to death or kill himself after being bullied anyway. He trained and got injured, read some biology, trained some more, invented training methods, trained some more. Until one day he realized that he could beat up people his own age, even kids who had money for martial art classes, effortlessly just with brute strength and reaction time alone... He beat up his bullies.

 

Then he figured that he should beat up other people's bullies too, so he trained some more, and over the years, overcame his psychological complexes and fears one by one, and started a normal life, went through highschool a quiet but more or less well-adjusted kid. Then he went through college, and grad school, and work life... a mostly normal guy, who slowly became more and more confident and assertive, and likes to stand up for the friends and coworkers who work hard and not being appreciated, and went out of his way to screw over people who rise through the rank via diplomatic skills alone and not hard work.

 

Then one day he... got bitten by a radioactive chimpanzee, and gained super agility and lost the need for sleep!

 

He then figured that it's high time he takes up vigilantism as a hobby.

 

His costume is a funny looking lion suit, like https://www.jesterfa...e89gywnrsbb.jpg The baggy suit hides a few gadgets, but Lion Man keeps it simple. Lion Man also wears bulletproof vest and fashioned leg / shin / knee / arm guards out of bullet proof materials. The lion head of the costume also provides bullet proofing for the forehead and back of the head. The costume itself also provides some level of protection.

 

Any criminals that Lion Man beat up immediately gave up their criminal ways. It's either that or admitting to the public that they were beaten to a pulp by a guy in a lion suit.

Lion Man; funny my origin story would be very similar except i think I'd use my powers to fight against strongholds of organized power who oppress specifically governments and crime syndicates

Hahah, completely missed the whole "why" part of the thread, and the first post as well. 

 

So, aside from omnipotence, I've always wanted the whole mixture of electricity powers from both Static and Mikoto Misaka. Cause then I could fly around, shield myself, and cause mass destruction along with being able to do a bunch of other stuff.
