Board 8 > You can join one of the following superpowered organizations...

(+) Yeah! (+)

Assume that all of these things become true at the same time, so you're now in a world with pokemon, space battles, and so on. Can the Ghostbusters capture a Gastly? Can an Animorph morph into a Jedi to gain his midichlorians as long as he's in Jedi mode? I don't know.

wait does this background character power restriction prevent me from having a rattata in the top percentage of rattata? because this might be a deal breaker.

Voted Jedi/Sith but I feel like that really depends on the era. Like obviously a Jedi in the Clone Wars era is a terrible deal.

---

Feel like Wizard or Pokemon Trainer are the clear best options.

Given that Youngster Joey was a background character I'd say that it guarantees you a top percentage Rattata.

I don't know that I'd really consider the Animorphs a superpowered organization when it's five teenagers conscripted to an intergalactic war.

Might not be a bad choice though because even the background characters (the auxiliary team towards the end of the series) get the exact same powers as the leads. Their ultimate fate is shitty but if you could avoid that you'd be ok.

I don't think the main Animorphs team fared any better, considering that Cassie was the only one to survive the series.

This isn't actually true anymore!

For years it's been left unknown what happened when Jake and crew ram the Blade Ship at the end, but fairly recently the authors said in a reddit AMA that it was a deliberate callback to Elfangor doing the same thing and that he survived, so they did as well.

Starfleet. As Dr. Farnsworth said, I dont want to live on this planet anymore.

Come to think of it, would the war part of Animorphs even matter if all of these settings become true at once? I'm pretty sure Starfleet could end the war without too much trouble, and I can't think of any reason why they would choose not to.

Wizard seems like it'll be the most useful AND least disruptive for my daily life.

Starfleet doesn't get involved in internal matters. A giant war between two other powers isn't something it would normally get directly involved in.

Yeah but this war involves parasitic slug aliens taking over humans that have already infiltrated Earth.

Unless there's two Earths in your scenario and Starfleet Earth is fine, but even then I don't think they'd ignore it.

Wizard has by the most useful powerset and by far the easiest world wherein to game the system.

---

Persona is the closest youd get to a Jojo world so thats got my vote

I didn't expect pokemon trainer to dominate like this.

---

wait, everything from all those franchises is happening at once? then definitely wizard so I can magic myself as far away from that insanity as possible

---

Wizard for sure. I highly doubt I would train Pokemon competitively if I lived in that world.

---

Pokemon trainer sounds good in theory, but in practice it's probably too much work. Realistically it's just a "have a cool pet or two" option, but wizards can have cool magical pets on top of all the other amazing benefits.
