NikolajPH's powers and abilities
Powers
Nik was created to be the most powerful mutant on Earth and the most powerful psionic imaginable. a psi of the first order, an Alpha-Psi, and an Global Level Threat. He was described as the most powerful and the most dangerous being on the planet, the ultimate mutant,the most powerful psionic in any reality, as near omnipotent, and as a living god.
His powers were burnt out by the Omega Machine, and he lost access to almost all of his abilities. He was left with limited telekinetic and telepathic abilities, but slowly regained control over more advanced powers.
Eventually, Nate fully recovered and became even more powerful than ever before, and now is stated to be more than Omega Level.
As he grew, he possessed enough power that he could destroy entire worlds if he wished . Even a small trace of his powers led to the almost instantaneous overload of Omega and Mimic. His power is such that upon examination by Moira MacTaggert, she suggested his psionic powers rivaled that of a Phoenix Force-imbued Avatar , even though at that time he just started to learn how to use his powers. It was also stated that he can fight on par with the Sentry. He even stated that he and the Sentry fought Galactus.
His powers include:
Astral Plane Tap:
Ability to tap into the virtually unlimited psychic resources of the astral plane in order to manipulate matter and energy (even down to the molecular level) and up to a potentially unlimited scale.
Psionic Entity:
After Nate transformed his body into energy and dissolved it into every living creature on the Earth, his consciousness actually continued to exist on the Astral Plane, evolving into a psionic being and was no longer restricted by the boundaries of the physical world.
Immortality / Physical Reconstitution:
Nate later learned to rebuild his body from psionic energy, and also to reverse the process, thereby effectively becoming immortal, because his consciousness continued to exist on the Astral Plane and thus he can easily create another body for himself if needed.
Self-Detonation:
He can explode his body by reversing it back into psi-energy.
Physical Possession:
Along with learning to rebuild his physical form, X-Man's heightened state of existence has allowed him to possess people. While possessing someone, he can explore their mind from the inside. It is possible that if he possesses a mutant, he can use their powers along with his own.
Psionic Energy Manipulation:
Nate is able to manipulate psionic energy for various purposes.
Psionic Energy Absorption:
He is able to absorb psionic energy from other living beings or psi-attacks, and use it to amplify himself.[69][17] He is able to almost instantly siphon psionic energy from a few dozen psychics without any effort, that left them all unconscious on the brink of death.
Psionic Energy Solidification:
He is able to make psionic energy solid and shape it to any suitable form.
Astral Projection Materialization:
He is able to pull the astral projections of other telepaths into the physical world, making them semi-solid.
Psionic Armor:
He is able to form psi-armor around himself, that greatly increased his strength and durability. While armored he was able to counter-force Holocaust's strength, push the Hulk miles away with just one punch, and withstand the grip strength of Thanos. He was also able to form psionic armor around other people.
Psionic Weapons:
Nate can shape psi-energy into various weapons like hammers, scythes,claws, lashes, etc.
Psionic Energy Materialization:
He is able to create perfect replicas of normal matter by materializing psionic energy. He created a psionic construct of the arm of Jam, that looked, felt and worked like a real arm; the copy was so perfect that even a professional doctor could not determine that it wasn't real. These psionic constructs are independent from Nate and continue to exist even without any support from him, they cease to exist only if Nate decides so.
Psionic Body:
He later vastly improved this power and was able to create an entire human body out of psi-energy, that even had the consciousness, memories and temper of the original person. After his return he created a few such bodies for himself, including his current one.
Telepathy:
Nate is the world's most powerful telepath,but not the most skillful, as he himself admitted. Nate was able to converse telepathically, read minds of dozens of people simultaneously, read thoughts across vast distances, surface scan up to several millions minds to find a specific person, etc. He himself said that telepathy is his sixth sense and his most important one.
After he recovered from the power loss, his telepathy reached unprecedented level as he was able to project a message into the minds of everyone on Earth with little effort (a feat that Jean Grey admitted she could not do and doubted that Charles Xavier could have managed it either).
Telepathic Defense: He can use telepathy in a number of defensive ways:
Astral Projection:
Capable of forging psi-links to travel in astral form alone or with others.
Mind Cloaking:
Nate is able to mask himself and his abilities from being detected, even by powerful telepaths like Charles Xavier and Exodus.
Undetectability:
By tweaking the basic senses of others, Nate was able to make himself completely imperceptible, even by those with superhumanly acute senses. He is also able to psionically conceal his own life-signs, to convince everyone around him and even the high-tech equipment of the Psi-Ops' agents that he was dead. He is able to hide himself and others from the sensors of Prime Sentinels, and even from Cerebro, which is extremely difficult, thought to be impossible, for even the strongest of mutants to accomplish.
Mental Shield:
He can protect his mind from mental intrusions, illusions, mind control, mind manipulation, etc. His telepathic defense is so great that even while inexperienced and weakened, he easily blocked such powerful telepaths as Charles Xavier.Even when his telepathy was non functional, he was able to sense when someone tried to read his mind and trace it back to the telepath. He is also able to see through illusions created by powerful telepaths like Emma Frost. He can escape from illusions created by such technical specialists like Mysterio. His mental defense is so impervious, that it even protected him from being affected by Sentry's powers, as he was apparently the only person on the planet who kept his memories about the Sentry, when the entire world was made to forget about him.
Automatic Psionic Defense:
After He studied and absorbed the memories of Sunspot about the teachings of the Askani, he learned how to thoroughly protect his mind from intrusions and overcome psi-dampers placed on his powers. He also created a special automatic psionic defense mechanism that rerouted the synaptic links and neural relays in his brain every time someone tried to read, manipulate, mentally intrude or control his mind; making all attempts eventually ineffective.
Mental Shield Removal:
Nate can easily overcome psi-shields created by other powerful telepaths, such as Charles Xavier, and even shields created by joint efforts from several telepaths.
Telepathic Illusions / Psi-Projections:
Nate is able to create realistic illusions, that cause people to see and experience events, that are not actually occuring in reality. His illusions can fool even Prime Sentinels and trap a technical specialist in illusions like he did with Mysterio in the illusory world, Greyville. It's not known how many people Nate can affect at the same time, but it's probably a few thousand or even tens of thousands.
Telepathic Camouflage / Psi-Skin:
Illusions also help him disguise himself and others, by altering his appearance to the perceptions of those around him, or make himself and others mentally invisible. However his camouflage can be broken, if he does something physically superhuman.
Mental Projection:
Nate is powerful enough to telepathically broadcast his semi-real image halfway around the world from Switzerland to New York.[84] Through this projection, he could see, hear and talk like a normal person, but had no tangible form.
Mind Control:
Nate is capable of overriding a person's will, and telepathically control their thoughts and actions. He was powerful enough to control a few dozen people at the same time. He can control even those with a well-documented history of resistance to mind control, such as Magneto.
Suggestion / Persuasion:
Sometimes he is able to control people just by simple verbal commands.
Psychosomatic Suggestion:
He is able to implant strong thoughts and feelings in the minds of others, which caused a corresponding physical response of the body. He was able to instantly freeze Venom, just by reminding him that it had happened to him in the past.
Mental Paralysis:
He is able to "brain-freeze" one or more people, effectively stopping their physical and mental activity for a while.
***********Memory Manipulation:************
Memory Reading:
He is able to read the memories of those around him, and project himself into a person's memories or place others into his memories to explore it from the inside. He can read memories of several people simultaneously and combine them to form a full picture. He was able to read the entire life story of a person.
Memory Erasure:
At first he was capable of instantly erasing the memories of himself from the minds of a dozen people. Later he developed this power to an even greater degree.
Memory Implantation:
He is able to place psychic implants in the minds of others, that replaced their memories with false ones. He could also make these implants deadly, so that if they were removed the person could die.
Memory Projection / Telemorphic Manifestation:
He is able to project someone's memories in order for them to be visually seen.
Mr. Sinister said that this was theoretically impossible to do.
Memory Recall:
He is able to remind himself as well as other people of the memories that they forgot.
Memory Overload:
He is able to flood the minds of others with an abundance of information of traumatic memories of their past, which overloaded their consciousness, emptying their mind and soul, and placing a person into a coma-like state.
Memory Exchange:
He is able to temporarily put the memories of one person into the mind of another, including his own.
Memory Absorption:
He can absorb information, memories, knowledge and skills from others and use it as his own, and even absorb the entire consciousness of a person.
Memory Restoration:
By reading the deep subconscious of a person, Nate was able to restore their fractured and/or lost memories.
Dream Manipulation:
He is able to manipulate dreams of others.
Mind Link:
He is able to create a permanent mental link with another person which allowed them to share thoughts, memories and feelings, and he was able to sense the whereabouts of said person.
Hive Mind / Telepathic Web:
He can interconnect several people to a hive mind of sorts, with him as leader, which allow all members to share thoughts, memories and feelings with each other and maintain a permanent mental link with each other.
Mental Blasts:
Nate can project stunning bolts of psionic energy, which have no physical effects, but cause pain to the victim's mind[57] or render them unconsciousness.
Intuitive Multilingual:
Capable of intuitively translating and learning new languages,including alien languages.
Dimensional Sense: Capable of sensing dimensional rifts and/or anomalies, sense if someone traveled between realities.
Psychometry:
He can read residual thought imprints left on objects touched by people. By touching the object Nate is able to see past events that happened with this object and around it, days[78] and even decades [10] ago. Sometimes he did not even need to touch an object, only enter the room to see what happened there many years ago. lPsychometry also allows him to see the possible future of an object.
Precognition & Retrocognition:
He is also a powerful precog and retrocog. At first he was able to see visions of the future during a trance, or through precognitive dreams. Later he learned another way to see, by displacing himself into a time-stream that shows every version of every possible future, as well as past and present events.
Nate possibly used his precognition powers to concoct his plan against Norman Osborn. He can also trigger visions of other precogs and share them.
Cyberpathy:
He is able to communicate with computers and control cyborgs.
Power Manipulation:
He is able to directly activate and control the superpowers of other beings, without taking control of their body or mind.
Power Bestowal:
He can grant superhuman powers to others as he did with Marcus Arlington III.
Power Amplification:
He can increase other mutants powers to incredible levels.
Power Negation:
He is capable of placing mental blocks in the minds of others to prevent them from using their superpowers, possibly suppressing them altogether.
Telepathic Tracking:
He is able to find any person by isolating their psi-signature on the Astral Plane and tracing it all around the globe.
Telepathic Tracer:
He can also place a special "tracer" on a chosen person, which allowed him to track that person's movements.
Immense Telekinesis:
He is the most powerful telekinetic on Earth. Nate is capable of very fine control over objects down to the molecular and even subatomic level. He could telekinetically move the chemicals in someone's brain around. He can disassemble and reassemble complex devices within minutes. On larger scales, Nate can levitate vast weights, but his upper limit remained undisclosed.
After Nate recovered from the power loss, he now could telekinetically demolish objects even half a world away from himself, such as when he was on Quadra Island, but was able to erase St. Peter's Basilica, the Kaaba, and the Padmanabhaswamy Temple from existence.
