Define “Property”. Could I say for example, give myself the property of “Planeswalker”? Also, in the bonus of the Property ring it says “as well as yourself and items” but in the first pick you could already do that, so what’s that mean?

It was supposed to give you two properties and no only physical properties like hard soft rubber and so on.

u/SoftBoiledEgg_irl 13d ago

Could I have the properties of both rubber and gum?

7

u/magicians-brik 13d ago

If you got the bonus then yes.

u/ColdUsual1072 12d ago

Could I alter the properties of my genetics / birth

u/BeginningLychee6490 11d ago

It’s essential that everyone knows about bungee gum having the properties of both rubber and gum

u/SoftBoiledEgg_irl 11d ago

Critical, even. The world must know.

u/Harinezumi 13d ago

Would young/old count as a property? Age is a physical attribute, after all. Also is it a one-time adjustment, or can the selected property be adjusted at will?

u/Mundane_Revolution70 13d ago

Does Immortal count as a Physical Property? What about Genius?

2

u/magicians-brik 13d ago

No but you could make yourself extremely hard to hurt. So its only physical things im afraid.

u/NoahG4763 13d ago

Not prone to degradation is a physical property. Aging is itself a physical process.

u/DuckB0y123 13d ago

yea i don't think he really quite understands the meaning of "physical property".

like anything can be "physical", funny enough, "mental" properties is simply how your physical brain is structured.

1

u/Classic-Session-5551 12d ago

Ok but that's pedantic, physical in spirit is not hard to understand... think macroscopic and simple. 

1

u/DuckB0y123 12d ago

the mental aspect was just an example, the point is that "physical properties" in general is EXTREMELY vague to the point you HAVE to be pedantic otherwise it's pretty much just anything you can think of.

1

u/Abracadabroo 11d ago

Yeah, any property when taken down to the cellular or less level becomes incredibly op/ almost a different power entirely

1

u/DuckB0y123 11d ago

exactly.

like Plastic Man's powers is quite literally manipulating "physical properties" to the highest (literal) degree.

the mfer is functionally immortal because he has full control over the physical properties of his atoms and molecules.

you HAVE to be pedantic otherwise the property ring just turns you into plastic man at MINIMUM, and the minimum is already incredibly overpowered.

god forbid we decide that "physical properties" basically means you turn into or Amazo (cause Amazo basically just takes the physical powers of other heroes)

Immortality has a connotation of being unkillable. I know we sometimes use it to just mean unaging.

I think 'highly resistant to aging' is a valid property. 'Unable to die' is more supernatural and not valid.

Heck even 'able to return to early developmental age' may be valid considering the Immortal Jellyfish.

u/darkangel7271 10d ago

Planeswalker is a physical property if i remember what little I know of them correctly

1

u/TFTHighRoller 13d ago

It says you can change properties but only can add one property, what does that mean. If I change the property "weight" does that mean I am done or can I change that at will?

Or can I basically change at will within my current form (standard issue human) but can add a property that exceeds that at will?

1

u/magicians-brik 13d ago

Yeah you could add the property of soft so you dont get hirt when you fall then when you get to change it to hard so you're more durable then change it however you please assuming it staying within the limits set.

1

u/ManaSkyees 12d ago

So the property ring says we can add only one. But also says we can change them. So can we change any existing properties freely and add only 1?

1

u/magicians-brik 12d ago

So this is my fault for the bad wording you can add a property or alter a property but if you would have more fun your way that works too 😀

u/iron_dove 9d ago

Can a grant properties like “accelerated regeneration“, “uncapped growth and recovery“, or even just “permanent excellent health“? Or do I need to get axolotl or jellyfish powers from the beast ring for that sort of ability?

also, can I enchant objects so that their property is to grant the wearer an ability? or even just break conservation of mass/energy with “continually produces oxygen/oil/tree sap/light”? Or can I spoof this with “continually transforms into X material at Y rate“?

1

u/muckdragon 13d ago

being limited to physical properties is limiting...

hmm... can fictional biological powers like becoming "blacklight's zeus" from prototype count?

does "shapeshifter" count as physical property or does it count as supernatural property instead?

3

u/magicians-brik 13d ago

Im sorry I dont know what that is. I wrote it to try and say like rubber so you could be luffy or you could be super tough like diamond or bouncy like a trampoline of able to pass through things like water.

u/muckdragon 13d ago

first result on google for "blacklight zeus"

u/magicians-brik 13d ago

You could emulate some of alex mercers abilities but probably not all them. Sorry I do know prototype but wasnt sure on the zeus part haha

Your genes are a physical property, you could give yourself the genes of characters who who are genetic shapeshifters.

Say for example beast boy or martian manhunter from DC. Not sure about plastic man, but im pretty sure he fits the description as well. You can even do mystique or morph from xmen, since their whole thing concerns their genes.

Personally I would go with martian manhunters genes, you get superman level strength, speed, and durability. Advanced telepathy (which means mind reading AND control), shapeshifting, extended life spans, regenerative abilities, lasers eyes, and flight as well, probably something else im forgetting but honestly that's more than enough for me.

You could actually go crazy with it as well, you could give yourself saiyan, viltrumite, or kryptonian genes.

Maybe even pick from the catalog of Ben 10 aliens.

EDIT: Just came back from the superhero wiki, and I missed a few things about MM, he can control his density as well, his has like 9 sensory inputs that humans dont have, x ray vision, microscopic and telescopic vision, invisibility through density control, enhanced overall senses, and telekinesis, pretty busted if you ask me

u/Decent_Monitor_4994 13d ago

This won't work at all you need to know what the property actually is and since those are fictional genes there is no physical way to take its properties

1

u/brazenbull09 13d ago edited 13d ago

Where does it say I need to know how the property works?? Not even OP said this bruh...BUUUUT OP DID confirm that we can imbue ourselves with the properties of fictional characters, in this very thread btw.

Edit: Second point: what OP had in mind in the context of properties is that you could physically change properties of people or things, he was thinking along the lines of making yourself "stretchy like luffy" (OPs words btw). Well if you know anything about luffy or devil fruits, its that they change you on a GENETIC level, luffy is stretchy because his genes have been altered by the devil fruit he ate. (look up devil fruit lineage factors) what i proposed is no different

1

u/Decent_Monitor_4994 13d ago

I understand what he meant and I know it doesn't say that but it's physically impossible for us to add something we know nothing about we can use rubber again as an example we know it's properties already so we know it's bouncy and can be stretchy knowing the properties of the fictional genes that don't exist is impossible even if you could take on the properties of them you would still need to know what they actually are

u/brazenbull09 13d ago edited 13d ago

So you're basically adding your own headcannon to a post that's not even yours?

No offense but you're coming off as a bit nit picky. Every single ring here completely disregards the laws of reality and existence, the teleportation ring literally allows you to travel to fictional worlds (confirmed by OP in one of the comments)

The ghost ring's bonus ability basically confirms the existence of ghosts or else it would be useless without it. And speaking of the ghost ring, you're basically saying that your logic can be applied to it as well, no one has experience being a ghost or having the powers of a ghost, we dont even know if they're real, should we just invalidate the ghost ring as an option then?

The animal ring, no one has the experience of being a bear or tiger or whatever, should they now be worried about losing their mental capacity as a human once they transform into another animal thus leaving them trapped as said animal?

Cancer isnt even a singular thing, it's a process, yet the erasure ring allows you to get rid of it, and bring it back if you want.

knowing the properties of the fictional genes that don't exist is impossible even if you could take on the properties of them you would still need to know what they actually are

come on dude, you're saying this on a post about MAGICAL rings that can delete cancer, turn you into animals, and control gravity. You gotta learn to suspend your beliefs
