Willem Van Wateren

Captain Holland's powers and abilities

Elemental Physiology

Willem, in human form, looks just like any average Dutch guy. He can, however, turn his body into water at will. and still have full control over it. He is about 100 liters of water. This is the volume that he feels most comfortable with. Sort of his 'base' state.

When in liquid form he does evaporate faster, at the same amount of any body of water. In human form, he can go without a drink for about 6 to 8 days, depending on his density and the humidity of the air.

Hydrokinesis

Although Willem cannot generate water himself, he has full control over any water he stays in contact with. The volume of this control is limited, but the limit isn't exactly known.

For instance; he can easily control the water of a swimming pool or a large pond. A few 100 billion liters at least.

As he can control the water of anything he touches, he can also extract water from living things. He accidentally mummified a stray dog within a second after touching him. He now has full control of his absorbing abilities.

Density Control

Willem is able to compress water. Allowing him to store more water in the same amount of volume. The compression rate is around ±2.8 to 1. So, he can store ±2,800 liters in 1 square meter.

Scientists think he subconsciously is using another dimension for this. Proof would be that they found small traces of unknown material in the water he expelled.

Dissolving / Absorption

Just like normal water, Willem can dissolve/absorb different substances. He can use this to lower his freezing temperature, or create a shield to lessen the evaporating effect. He can concentrate any dissolved material anywhere within his controlled body of water.

He can also easily separate that material at any point with some precision.

Toxins / Diseases

As he can separate any material from his (water) body, he's also capable of removing any toxins or diseases this way as well.

Radiation

Although water can get radiated, he can easily shed that part from his body. The radiation doesn't harm Willem himself, just his surroundings.

Size Changing

He can grow or shrink his human form in almost without any limit, as long as there is enough water. Growing too big will slow him down tremendously, so he normally doesn't get any taller than around 3 meters. If he want things done, he turns into liquid form.

Duplication

Willem can make duplicates of himself that are autonomous, as long as they are connected (through water) to Willem himself. He can create one 100% copy with little effort, two with much effort. He can create 'unlimited' copies, but the more he makes, the less 'accurate' they are. They will lose functionality the more there are.

Durability

Any physical harm done to him in human form will result him turning into his liquid form, negating the harm.

He can withstand high temperatures until water turns into steam. Steam isn't dense enough for him to control.

He can withstand low temperatures until freezing point, which in result, makes him unable to move. He can dissolve certain materials to lower the minimum temperature of freezing, like salt.

Regeneration / Healing

He can absorb any water to replenish any lost volume and re-'grow' body parts. It's basically reshaping his form.

Immortality

If he were to evaporate completely or lose all water, it won't cause death, though. His 'energy' will persist and will form a body again when in contact with water. Making him virtually immortal.

Enhanced Hearing

When in, or connected to (a large body of) water, he can hear any sound hitting the water surface. Although it comes off as chaos, when he's focussed, he can hear things from long distances away.

Super Speed

He can travel through water at the speed of sound (through water), around 1500 m/s on the surface. Going deeper his speed can reach around 2200 m/s.

Super Strength

In human form, Willem has the strength of 10,000 cheese wheels, ± 120,000 kg.

In liquid form, depending on the volume of water he's controlling, he can easily lift large cargo ships.
