Stars of 'Encantadia' reveal which magical powers they wish to have

This question was posed to some of the stars of "Encantadia Chronicles: Sang'gre' - Bianca Umali, Kelvin Miranda, Faith Da Silva, and Angel Guardian - during an interview at the GMA Studios in Quezon City recently.

"I want to have a super power sa pag-iisip. Kasi minsan yung isip ko buffer. Kailangan ko ng talas sa pag-iisip. (I want to have a superpower for thinking. Sometimes, my mind acts as a buffer. I need sharpness in my thinking)," said Faith.

Angel remarked: "Siguro the power to eat what I want every day pero hindi ako mabusog at tataba. (Maybe I have the power to eat what I want every day, but I won't be full and I won't gain weight.)"

Faith mentioned that among the four of them, Angel eats a lot but has never gained any weight. Angel just smiled at what she said.

"Ako gusto kong power is reading the mind of others. It's for good naman. Madalas, I worry kung ano ang iniisip ng iba sa akin. (I want my power to be reading the minds of others. It's for good. Often, I worry about what others think of me)," said Kelvin.

Bianca answered: "It may sound cliche, but I want to have the power of peace. Like kung may makikita kang tao na malungkot and then bibigyan mo siya ng kapayapaan and then okay na sya. Yun lang. (Like if you see someone sad, then you give them peace, and then they'll be okay. That's all.)"
