Superpower: Ability to parse and remember an infinite amount of information instantaneously or extremely quickly. It's the most limiting part of everything I do.
Lightsaber form: Probably a combination of Makashi and Tràkata. Aside from the stylistic appeal, I believe that to use a lightsaber in the most efficient manner, a practitioner must also discard all of their preconceptions of what a sword ought to be. Due to the nature of lightsabers, fluidity, precision, and the ability to deactivate the blade are essential in using the weapon to its fullest potential.
I'm with De4th on the need so use the characteristics of a lightsaber in any combat involving it. Something I'd question would be the forces involved in striking a lightsaber with another during combat given how light either should really be.

I would also like to know what each of these types of robot are like.

Going to go get lunch then submit the application.

I can take care of my opinions on God and Aliens pretty easily:
God - I don't disagree with any interpretations of a being no one has really interacted directly with. I make the additional assertion that God may be a 4th or 5th dimensional being as that would subscribe all of the powers usually associated with the being as well as a degree of being impossible to observe.
Aliens - We're not worth bothering with. Weapons aside we have an extremely difficult time leaving the confines of our planet. So we're not a danger whatsoever. Being studied wouldn't be unlikely for the same reason we study insects. Humanity as a whole is extremely young and we've achieved an astoundingly limited number of singularities. Recording and sharing information related singularities (Speaking, Reading, Writing, Distance communication) have mostly occurred, population manipulation (cloning), terraforming, inter-planetary or inter-galactic travel (breaking limits of resources), parsing of information quickly and coming to conclusions (occurring through big-data, eventually assisted by strong AI).
Basically we suck. Both due to ethical and intellectual limitations (also straight up lacking time).
