Description This is something that, were it to exist in real life, would probably corrupt the heck out of me. Fortunately, it only exists in fantasy. YAY!

This remote is something I've wanted to design for a while, and will likely turn up in El Goonish Shive fillers. It's too powerful for the actual story, but as a way to have fillers where the characters can essentially do anything? That's major fun potential right there.

Anyway, the basic idea is that the user makes use of the menus and options to set up a specific transformation, then hits "TRANSFORM" to make that transformation occur. The same process would be used to undo the transformations.

The basic idea is that pretty much anything could be made to happen with this. It's like a magic wand, but with buttons and a lot of details, so it's more better ^_^

EDIT: An "Undo" button has been suggested, but one is unnecessary. Previous TFs can be called up from the history option and set to be undone from there.

EDIT: Fixed a couple typos

I admit I was worried when I didn't see an undo button, until I read the description.Β  Still I worry about what might happen if the remotes memory got cleared, or you needed to use another remote to try and change them back.

Seriously, 10K to become that of a god? GOOD DEAL.

I'd buy it. I'd buy it nine times. Especially since I could totally turn rocks into money after the first one. I'd change forms everyday! I'd toggle awareness and walk around as a cat girl. I'd be a hit at cons. XD I'd also make my cat talk. Why? BECAUSE I CAN.

I want one. Now.

I actually designed this on a text MUCK once o.O

They're always handy for various transformations... when friends don't accidentally sit on them!

Anyway, I took the ATM style softkey approach (like a cell phone, or ATM, a button is unlabeled but is right next to the screen which can label the button) as well as some of the controls you have there, there was also a body part menu button on mine.

What's the point of doing anything when you can just change it to what you want it to be? Or who you want them to be? Sure, at first that kind of power might be fun. But over time it would get boring. Oh, you two are having a fight, I can't be bothered with disagreements. I will just make you two agree and we'll call it a day. Why work out when I have a remote that can take all my flaws away?
Conflict, imperfections, flaws, these are the things that make life interesting. Just being to magicly remove them... it takes something away from the whole being that is life.

Until it gets boring. There is only so much you can do to a group of idiots before the novelty wears off. Oh look I have given you ears and a tail. Now I have made it so you love only me. After a while I can see one looking at the remote and wondering "Yes I can make them love me... but is it True love?". Besides, Bush already tried to have that.. and look were it got him.

or you could alter your own mind so you never get bored, make yourself more intelligent ant invent entirely new things - if you're powerful enough to solve any challenge, then just tackle bigger challenges
