I had a really strange dilema come to mind...

After looking at the pic with Darth Vader and the Burger King, I suddenly had a thought.

Q is bored. He comes to you tomorrow and asks if you would like to be the most powerful force user that has ever existed. You will be on the scale of Palpatine or Yoda. However, the pure power of the force will warp your appearance until you look exactly like the Burger King guy.

Would you take it?

Yup, nobody will care about my appearance, and I could use force illusions to project my original appearance.

So, not only do I get to be an extremely powerful force user. I can also go up to people and say: "Where is your God now?".

Hells yeah!

Of course. Although your appearance will be warped, with the level of Palpatine in terms of power (and the ability to use it), your mere appearance would be no limitation to whatever you wanted to do.

I get Force powers on par with Yoda or Palps. I don't care what I look like at that point. Besides, I can simply alter what other people perceive and make them think I'm Johnny Depp, or something.

Do I get free burgers @ BK as well?

Are you kidding? The Burger King rocks. :mrgreen:

Damn, now I'm imagining SW with the BK in place of Palpy.

I just read over my op. Whatever I was smoking when I wrote this, I obviously need more of it!

You can get infinite free burgers at BK is the people working there are so stupid they can be mind trick... never mind.

You also can't change your appearance by purely using the force. You can, however, manipulate things so that people simply accept your appearance.

Err

I'd take it and leave my appearance un-Force altered. You dare mock me? I find your lack of common sense disturbing...*Force choke*

I suggest re-reading the OP. Either you look like the BK and have super force powers, or you leave all force powers behind and remain your normal self. There is no middle ground. Q is getting pissed at your ignorance!

No no, he means keep his Burger King face un-altered. I can't believe I caused this by posting that pic up.

EDIT: Unless you found a different Burger King and Vader pic apart from the one I captured with Gadwin.

Oh. I get it now. Whoops.

And nope, I was referring to yours. Sometimes I just have a strange mind, not your fault.

Uhhh...yeah.

You need to think a bit more! I meant take the Force and get Burger King'd, then Force Choke anyone who mocks me. I meant that all along. Really :oops:.

I'm an ugly enough bastard as it is - if anything, that mug is an improvement over mine. Plus, I get the power of natural intimidation and/or charm.

C'mon, who can look at the King for more than a few seconds before either looking away or smiling?

Man, if I ever decided to become a professional killer or something, the uproar I'd cause would be insane. You wake up in the middle of the ight and see me in the bed next to you, and you can't tell if I'm about to bring you breakfast or slit your throut.

My only concern is: when our faces get warped, do we have total control over the face, so that we can move the various bits around like normal, or does the change come as though we just had the mask super-glued onto our face, and we can't open or close our mouth, eyes, and whaatnot?

Last-minute thought: I wonder how the face can stand up to Wars-verse plastic surgery...

EDIT: No frowning? Well, damn...now I'm not sure about what I'd do. I mean, I wouldn't mind my head being slightly oversized or having a slight plasticy sort of look or texture, but if I can't visually show displeasure or neutrality without the need for an illusion, and if I have to always physically keep the same expression day in and day out...

Umm... I guess you get partial control. However, you will always smile like the BK guy. You can't frown or anything.

No plastic surgery or Force Farces or anything. This is the face you must live with.
