You could wear a condom.  And gloves.  And a wetsuit.  :)

I knew it. I knew it. I knew it before I clicked it. And I was right.

 

 

Also, having anyone touch you drop dead is a bit of a giveaway I think.

Cops arrest you on suspicion of murder. Can you imagine how that will go?

 

"Alright, now I'm going to cuff you."

"No, you can't."

*draws gun*

"Get on the floor!"

"No, you can't touch me. I'll kill you!"

 

There's no way this ends well.

Nah more likely go like this:

 

"turn around and put your hands behind your back!"

"ok"

Goes to cuff you and drops to the floor dead

 

Carry on your way.

Right.  Even if they could somehow prove that you were causing it (which they would not be able to do), they could never prove that you did it on purpose.  You could always say they touched you.  But of course Rebel is correct; they would die arresting you.  You'd be a hard man to catch!

Until they made the connection that touching you kills them, and then gloves or a tazer/gun.

Okay, what then?  They would never be able to prove cause and effect, because there would be no actual proof that your touch had killed them.  It would be quite the legal quandary.  And of course once your abilities became known the government would want you, either to study or to employ, probably both.  You could probably live well as a high-paid assassin.  But no, you'd never have any real connections with anyone.

This was essentially my rationale.  Light Emission is tempting, and I can envision lots of ways that it could be used awesomely.  But turning into a falcon and flying?!  No contest.  Plus the gouging people's eyes out thing.  Touch of Death is powerful, for sure, but the sacrifices were too great.

 

If I had this to do over again, I might give them all drawbacks.  Like for Light Emission I was thinking maybe you would always glow a little.  In daylight it's not noticeable, but in the dark it makes you look radioactive.  You can turn it off by an act of will, but it's difficult to hold it for more than about five minutes; at ten minutes the strain is unbearable and you let go and light up. 

 

I'm not sure what the drawback would have been for Falcon Form.  You lay eggs?

Okay, here's the drawback for Falcon Form, if there had been a drawback:  You can only stay in a given form, whether human or bird, for four hours, at which point you will spontaneously revert to the other form, no matter where you are or what you are doing.  Now, if you were in human form and your four hours were nearly up (say in the middle of a school day), you could just nip into a bathroom stall, transform into a falcon for a few moments, and then transform back to human for another four hours, but that's the point — you'd have to do that.  And you wouldn't want to be mid-swoop when you reverted back to human.

None of you give this man enough credit.

Not to mention, answering questions aside, if you're practiced enough you could revert back to falcon form from human form if you're mid-air.

Perhaps in this age you'd have to worry about being caught on camera, but I'd like to think this scenario exists more like a superhero world, and things are kinda convenient about certain things.
