Either Mind Control, like Killgrave’s in Jessica Jones, or if I can cheat a little, Legion’s powers in Legion on FX. He sort of has multiple but they can all basically be chalked up to “mind powers” if we’re being loose with it.

For the record I’m not saying I want to be like Killgrave, he’s a disgusting small monster, but… his abilities are insane. Hard to resist something like that.

As for Legion’s, I mean I’d effectively be a god. Hard to pass that up, tho maybe not if it comes bundled with the schizophrenia.

I thought Killgrave was extra disturbing because you know that's exactly how someone with that power would become.

Imagine how hard it would be to resist wording things in the Imperative just... Accidentally.

You get frustrated, yell "Shut up!" at someone in passing, and that person is now mute unless you realize your mistake and undo it.

couldn't you just say "you are immune to my powers"?

And get minions to do the bulk of interactions without the hazard.

Mind Control, like Killgrave’s in Jessica Jones

That's #1 for me.

#2 is the Infinity Gauntlet.
