Why does Ulaam want all sorts of body parts? I think he's a kandra right, but can't kandra make all human organs and tissues besides bones? What's the benefit of a kidney or a liver except to learn to copy them? Also why does he keep himself grey and corpselike? Maybe this is all answered. I'm only halfway done but I couldn't get this out of my head

Alright...it's been a little while since I've seen a "what powers would you want?" thread...and despite being cliche...they're one of my favorites. To keep it original...I'm going to add some specifics. You are on earth. Present day. All conditions about your life are exactly the same as in reality. You have not had powers until today. You are basically Rick Grimes waking up to the zombie apocalypse already in progress. Same zombie rules as the walking dead apply. You are aware that from today onward, there will be some other metalborn out there. You get to be a twinborn of your choice...and just for fun...throw in a 3rd hemalurgically induced power with zero negative repercussions. Let's also say that you get a pocket full of metal shavings and/or jewelery to get you started...but after that you are on your own (i.e. atium doesn't exist) What powers do you want...how will you use them to survive...and what is your plan of action? I'm gonna go with coinshot, seeker, subsumer. Coinshot is a must for avoiding and combating zombies...almost makes it too easy. Since there are other metalborn out there...being able to find/identify them will be vitally important, because nowadays people are just as dangerous as the undead...plus you might be able find some friends with superpowers. Being a subsumer would make not starving or dying of thirst a lot easier to manage, while still remaining very mobile. Let's have some fun with this one guys!
