Personality: As a child, Aiden strove to win at any situation, at all costs. This seems to have been a part of his character even prior to his conscription to the US army or Plumbers, as he pushed himself to win at any game he played, including chess, football or King of the Hill. He was a very humble and collected man. Very perceptive and shrewd, he was noted as not to do something without a reason. A very polite individual, Aiden would address others with the appropriate honourifics, directed even towards dangerous criminals such as Sal. Aiden also wouldn't pry into other people's personal affairs unless he felt it was necessary, and was not the type to hold grudges. As a teenager, he is bold, arrogant, boastful, somewhat cocky, loves fighting, will kill in cold blood. yet level-headed and clever man, and a symbol of his family's pride. He was also a ruthless and merciless bounty hunter who openly took enjoyment in the end of his opponents. Aiden is a fierce and arrogant man. He is extremely violent, showing no mercy towards anybody, as he views mercy as a "weak" trait. He seemingly lives only to fight and cause destruction to anything and everything he can. His whole life and mindset are dedicated to nothing but fighting and growing stronger with each person he defeats, sometimes killing them. He tends to kill people if pushed or enraged enough and does not show care or remorse when doing so. He will also kill for pleasure or satisfaction when he feels like it, facing no repercussions as even the Mafia is powerless to stop him. He has a deep resentment for the weak and does not even think it's worth killing them. He also takes a gloomy, stoic attitude most of the time. While in the army during Vietnam, Aiden also happens to possess calm judgment and a measure of humanity compared to his cold blooded superiors. Due to his actions of saving his companions, which is rare for a CO, he is greatly adored among a portion of his men. He has a great sense of pride and independence as while most soldiers have all been tamed by the US army. He has a very plain view in life. While praised by others as brilliant, Aiden rejects such compliments, believing that he is simply experienced for combat. His loyalty and compassion for his friends and allies was shown so deep that he mourned their respective deaths and vowed to avenge them, particularly Lincoln who he openly viewed as his best friend. He has a laid-back and fearless personality as evidenced by him taking responsibility in confronting the Vietcong alone. He is a highly capable tactician in battle, able to perceive the situation at hand and act accordingly with it, as shown from his ability to out-maneuver the enemy forces. While back home in the USA, Aiden remains unsociable, he says his name to Jackson right after the boy asked him. But he also shows a little bit of stubbornness, when Jackson offers him a basket of food and he denies it even being hungry, but soon Aiden starts to accept Jackson's persistence and becomes softer with the child. When the Inhabitants of the town thanked Aiden for the KKK's defeat, Aiden replies with a smile. Aiden is the only one that maintains something of his pure nature and showed a willingness to challenge his superiors. One of Aiden's most defining personal traits are that he is very open-minded and accepting, evident by his lack of sexist or racist views. During Vietnam, Aiden saw both sides as equals and viewed the Vietcong defending themselves from invaders as justified, openly stating that he "respects the Vietnamese." He earned the disapproval of some, however, by expressing his respectful, almost sympathetic, view towards the enemy. As his career progressed, he transformed his desire to achieve personal victory to a desire to achieve victory for his squad and, by extension, humanity as a whole. Aiden is tenacious to complete any mission at hand, and often disregards his personal safety in order to win. Indeed, he has often emerged victorious from situations many would consider impossible. Though even a Macgrath is not devoid of fear, Aiden simply acknowledges it and puts it aside, while never openly showing it. He is not shy about expressing caution, however, as shown in his first encounter with Vilgax. Aiden is generally stoic and taciturn, but not devoid of a sense of humor. He often makes dry remarks about the situation at hand, but this seems to be more frequent when interacting with his wife than anyone else, such as other Plumbers. Although Aiden has difficulty understanding the 'undisciplined' lifestyle of civilians, he is fiercely protective of their lives and people as a whole. The mass slaughter of civilians at the hands of the Black Sun was enough to drive even the stoic Aiden into a cold rage. After the massacre of Draco, Aiden and his Plumber comrades remained on-site until every enemy soldier responsible for the atrocity was dead. Aiden is known to show an exceptional care for soldiers under his command, while at times viewing them as a liability rather than an asset (more out of fear and concern for them than for himself). By 1980, after his experiences on Naboo, Aiden acknowledged to Max that, armor and enhancements aside, there was little difference between a 'normal' soldier and himself. This is not to say that Aiden was previously without compassion. During the Battle of Installation 09, when searching for the survivors of the Pillar of Autumn, a Plumber named Fitzgerald was wounded by an Unggoy with a Needler. Aiden retrieved a first aid kit and expertly treated the wound, taking time to ask the Plumber if he was alright. By 1985, most members of the Plumbers held "Aiden Macgrath" in complete awe, even among his comrades. His exploits and prowess quickly made him a legend in his own time, and his mere presence on a battlefield was enough to inspire the hope of victory regardless of the odds. Aiden is a man that prefers to be alone, whether it is in the field or in his personal life. He doesn't have a lot of close friends except Theodore Burch, Gordon Hood and Donovan Roberson, and enjoys the company of a few selected ones including his wife, children, some old friends from his military days (Stanley Bush, his former C.O. Gary Savage and ex-Marine Lowell Kirby, the Displace CEO who Aiden had killed on the rooftop of a bathhouse in Tokyo) and Alexander Sullivan from whom he has learned a great deal when it comes to technology and others. Thus, this makes him an individualist, a self-dependent human being, a loner. As a reserved man, Aiden doesn't talk as much, but he tends to be good and somewhat philosophical with the use of words when doing so, depicting the long years of experience through the things he says and in times the dark sense of humor he's known for. That doesn't mean that he has lost that certain childish and even innocent sense of humor to the point where it could be confused with his sarcasm. Aiden tends to rely on the usual 'smart' comment when remembered of things that seem too obvious for him or when treated like either too old, or too young, although the sole mention of him being 'old' bothers him a lot. Few are the ones that manage to get away with those jokes towards him and bring a smile to his face. Although the suave, sophisticated style isn't his, Aiden tends to be somewhat flirty with nearly every woman he sees, but he's able to hold himself back and knows his limits, always being respectful. Even if he is flirty, he fears relationships because of the many failed ones that usually ended with the other one dying or suffering. Call him selfish, and perhaps he is, but he is certainly afraid of being hurt again knowing that it will be extremely difficult for him to consciously hurt someone he would be so attached to - something that he learned the hard way through life - and knowing that if hurt, his wounds don't heal as fast. However, he grows attached really fast to the people he cares for and would go as far as to kill and/or die for them. Aiden loves a good challenge, any kind of challenge whether it is risking his life as usual or trying to convince a lady for a date, or having a date that is a challenge for him whether in an intellectual point of view or even physical point of view. Aiden usually takes a methodical approach to things - planning them first and acting on them later. However, sometimes his tactics make his strategy turn riskier than he planned. This had earned him a few injuries, but injuries that he rarely regrets. He's a street-smart man that relies a lot on 'experience over books'. However, even if he doesn't give the impression of being very smart, he is, and even if he might not look the part, Aiden is indeed a 'bookworm.' In fact, Aiden is a man that learns and adapts quickly to either a technological advance or a change in world politics. An example of this is the highly advanced equipment he easily uses for the job that requires it. However, even if all this equipment could help him a lot, he tries not to rely too much on the technology in order to keep himself self-dependent. Even if Aiden seems like a man of a calmed and collected manner most of the time, some people have been able to know him by his anger. It's good to point out, that is rare to see Aiden losing his determination or focus because of emotional distress but it's not something that hasn't been seen. When in extreme anger against his enemies, he's able to stay determined and focused on his goal although it's certain that his enemies do suffer the consequences. Aiden tends to be a character with a certain burst of depression whether it is because of something that is currently happening, or because of the painful things that he had been gone through in his life or both. He 'stacks' every painful memory, so to speak, and most resorts on the self-destruct mechanism of blaming himself for the negative effect of something even when it wasn't his fault. It's true that only hard enough situations are the ones that usually work like the trigger of said mechanism. Aiden keeps himself away from alcohol of any sort when he can. This is mostly because of how alcohol plays a dangerous part when in deep depression, clouding his mind. Aiden is quickly angered by the casual slaughter of civilians or unarmed military personnel by his enemies. Also, liars, cowards, and arrogant people tend to cut his patience short as well as people who overuse their power such as bureaucrats which were the main reason for him to leave the CIA and join the Plumbers instead. Aiden approaches his enemies in a ruthless and no-nonsense manner and usually keeps a light conversation with his temporal hostages. He doesn't have too much patience when it comes to interrogating and resorts on his dark sense of humor and threats that are everything but idle. Do mind, he's not a sadistic man, but will do anything he needs to do to get the job done. Aiden is a man that believes in respect, dignity, and compassion towards even the most unlikely individuals as proven during the first three years of his career with the Plumbers, in which he had gone to the point of disobeying direct orders because of what he believes is right. Loyalty seems to be another one of his strong points to the point in which he has sacrificed himself various times despite the knowledge of a possible betrayal by the person/agency that he holds in high regards. Call him determined or stubborn, Aiden is more than just a focused soldier and a patriot. He is a man that is driven by the roots of his moral fiber in doing what he believes is right. This pushes him through even the toughest circumstances like the death of loved ones. Aiden appears to be the ultimate personification of manliness and masculinity. While he appears to be perpetually angry, he is a rather complicated man, due to his violent and mysterious past. He has very little patience for those around him, this adds to his gruff demeanor and solo attitude. Indeed, Aiden prefers to be alone due to him disliking and distrusting the company of others. Despite his disgruntled nature, he has a very dry sense of humor, constantly insulting others and giving them demeaning nicknames. Aiden does not hesitate to harm or kill and harbors no true remorse or guilt over any violent actions he has done in the past, with the exception of Eric Henson. His past has in fact emotionally scarred and hardened him to make himself used to the pain and suffering he has endured, from his childhood trauma, to his several lifetimes of being a soldier in many of the most violent wars in human and galactic history. His is therefore less inclined to show mercy towards his opponents, anyone else that attacks him, or even those who simply enrage him, such as when he tried to kill Mercedes Holder since she was corrupt and part of Mariko's kidnapping to be paid a fortune. Despite his willingness to use violence, he is still a moral person who does not do so needlessly, nor does he attack innocent people. While he is described as cynical and pessimistic, Aiden is nonetheless a good person and will always stand up for those who can't defend themselves, or at the very least be willing to avenge them, as such as his killing of Agent Z for attacking him and killing the elderly couple that sheltered him. While hiding in a well from the tsar nuclear bombing, he was not fazed by the destruction going on outside since he could do nothing about it, but was willing to save Karnaukhov Kliment Olegovich when he had the chance to, unable to leave the man to his fate. However, Karnaukhov proved himself to be evil and repeatedly tried to kill Aiden and gain his healing as Silver Soldier, Aiden tore the suit open, pulling the wires that kept Karnaukhov alive, before stabbing his chest and dropped him off a cliff to his death in a rage. Aiden has grown some restraint and perhaps mercy over the years presumably because of his prolonged exposure to having a family. Although he has no restraint or regret for unleashing his animal side on those deserving of such violence, he at least nonlethally incapacitated the a few guards whilst attempting to free his son with his old war buddies. Although officially a Plumber, Aiden prefers to be alone. He has a deep distrust and disrespect for people, regardless of whether they are both human and non-human, having seen years of violence, prejudice, and war. This attitude also stems from having people he trusted betray him, such as Kayla and his brother, Victor. However, the true reason for Aiden's wanting to be alone is due to the fact that so many people tend to die around him, such as friends and loved ones. He also shows signs of self loathing for the violent life he has lived and the pain he has endured. Aiden is extremely loyal and protective over those few who can gain his trust and respect. He is completely ready to sacrifice his life if it will save someone he loves, and will stop at nothing to protect his friends and family. Despite his blunt personality, Aiden has made many friends with the Plumbers and Army. Aiden is a man of vice; he loves to drink alcohol and smoke cigars, knowing that neither can effect his health due to his gifts. He is also an adamant motorcycle and car rider and has shown to hate flying in planes. His most famous traits would be his temper and attitude. Aiden seems constantly angry and is very easy to become enraged. Though he is capable of thought, he has said himself that he has an animal side to his personality. This side of him is feral and primal, causing him to become instinctual and berserk, especially in combat. It is caused by his animalistic nature and triggered by rage, fear, frustration, great annoyance, general distress or pain. It result in him becoming highly aggressive and mindlessly brutal, similar to an wolf, as he is prone to roar with rage in most of these cases. In some cases, it is this brute-like side of Aiden that make it easy for him kill and harm without hesitation. He is incredibly intimidating, having a menacing aura that makes everyone around feel petrified. His mere presence is more than enough to make others be uncomfortable and nervous near to him. While most people are scared of him, fighters and martial artists greatly respect Aiden due to his supernatural strength viewing him as the pinnacle of power. He is considered by people as something more than a human and more like a creature or a force of nature that goes beyond human understanding. Aiden is feared to the point that during the Vietnam war, an entire squad of Vietcong quickly fled upon noticing him rather than confronting him. He is also ruthless, as shown when he ripped Remy's face-off and then slammed his skinless face onto the stone floor. Another example would be when he killed Emily by rupturing her eardrums and then breaking her spine. Despite being wrathful, Aiden is surprisingly patient and almost always keeps his cool. He is stoic most of the time, often speaking only what is needed and even just what is necessary. In truth, most of the time only silently listens to others and sometimes adds something and can keep his cool even when he is insulted. Although enough is enough, he can be very violent, and he almost instantly switches back to his usual calm demeanor. He was well-aware of the terror his reputation inspired in rival nations or Planets and would take advantage of it at times, but even then he would remain respectful to opponents. As leader of the Macgrath Family, Aiden was focused on the family's interest and welfare and had a strong sense of responsibility. His son, Alex, saw him as a stern and uncaring man while he was seen as a father-figure to the rest of the family. As Delsin was his successor as head of the clan, Aiden spent much of his time focusing on the development of his eldest and little time with his youngest. Alex trained constantly in order to get his father's attention and approval. Near the end of his life, Aiden had switched his attention to Alex, having lost hope in the wayward Delsin. He was only impressed by great feats and rarely praised anyone, having high expectations. Aiden was very serious, hardly smiling most of the time. To which, he showed noticeable distaste to Delsin when he would shirk his duties like attending meetings and missions. While outwardly Aiden seemed strict and neglectful towards his eldest and youngest sons respectively, coupled with his devotion and focus of his family's welfare led him to seem hateful and non-negotiable, he was still a very caring individual to his sons. According to Yaroslava, when she and Aiden were alone, Aiden would mostly, if not only, talk about Alex. While always trying to motivate Alex to improve, he failed to see Alex's desire to be acknowledged as his son rather than compared to Delsin. Aiden was known to be a loving father and husband, and, like his sons Delsin and Alex, was extremely brave and protective of his loved ones, since he notably tried to fight back against Vilgax when the latter had his son at gunpoint, determined to protect his only child left. Aiden was apparently proud of his ancestors and Macgrath family history, going out of his way to pass on that knowledge to his children. As an adult, Alex worries about being unable to live up to his father, despite already be older than Aiden had ever been. Aiden Macgrath was a good man, who created an orphanage and helped people in need. He even gave medical attention to Phil.

Powers and Abilities: 
Overview: Prior to joining the Plumbers, Aiden was a renowned special forces operative, a former spy, and mercenary commander during the Vietnam war, having been the only person in US history to serve in all Military branches in the US army. Considered by some as "The Greatest Warrior of the 20th Century," he earned such monikers as "the Legendary Soldier" and "the Legendary Mercenary," feared in combat by both friend and foe as a hero and a madman. Possessing an IQ of 180 and fluent in 24 languages, the fame he achieved from his military exploits earned him such monikers as "Legendary Hero," and "the Man Who Makes the Impossible Possible." Aiden was one of the most powerful Plumbers in history, considered by Max Tennyson and Phil as unmatched as a Plumber as well as one of the most dangerous men in the world at the time. During the Vietnam war, he fought an army of ten thousand Viet Cong alone and directly fought The Red Eyed Phantom herself, Yaroslava Nikolayevna to a standstill. As a former CIA Agent and Delta Force soldier, he is a highly skilled black ops operative, having served in the US Army and the Special Forces before joining the Plumbers. Thoroughly trained and highly accomplished in a variety of combat techniques, Aiden's abilities vary from the expert handling of firearms, explosives to hand-to-hand combat. Trained to operate as an assassin for the US government, Aiden presumably worked under clandestine parameters and carried out jobs as a "secret weapon". When he was deemed expendable by his government, Aiden went into business for himself as a mercenary for hire. As a result of being trained by S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Delta Force Black ops, he was trained in Tactical Swimming, Close Quarters Combat, Applied Explosive Technique, Rapid Assault, Dynamic Entry, Counter Surveillance, Evasive and Anti-Terrorist Driving Technique, Parkour (Free Running), Covert Communication, Computer Hacking, Surreptitious Entry, Military Free-Fall Parachuting, Edged Weapons, Precise Application of Lethal Force, Urban Sniping, Unarmed Combat, Threat Elimination, Structure Penetration, Covert Influence Operations, Support and Recruitment of HUMINT assets, Interrogation, Interrogation Resistance, Reconnaissance, Extreme Environment Survival, and Field Medicine. As a former Plumber Commando, he was trained in: siege assault, counterinsurgency, hostage extraction, demolitions, unarmed combat, heavy weapons, improvised weaponry, guerrilla warfare, marksmanship, alien languages, alien cultures, surviving hostile planets, assassination, surveillance, tactics, sabotage, espionage, and ambush. He was considered by Max and Phil to be unmatched as a Plumber, and was one of very few people known to be able to fight a Mythosaur head-on. During an attempt to escape, after seeing one of Aiden's combat skills, Max compared Aiden's power to Mandalore the Great and other ancient Mandalorians. During the Vilgaxia war, flee-on-sight orders were given to enemy troops should they encounter him. He was able to single-handedly wipe out an army of one thousand Kree Soldiers — a feat that forced their leader to accept a peace treaty. The mere idea of facing Aiden brought fear to his enemies, as shown from the reaction of an Forever Knight who mistook Delsin for him, despite Delsin being a child at the time. At the same time, amongst his comrades, Aiden stood out the most in sheer aptitude as a natural prodigy and the best of his generation, earning praise from even the higher ups from the Plumber Council. Even more, he was considered to be a rare genius, whose nickname of Wicked Eye Macgrath made enemies of other Planets tremble. His talents were considered comparable to Max and Phil, even viewed as a prime candidate to become Magistratus. His abilities were so advanced that even his elder son Delsin, a prominent member of the Macgrath family at the time, hoped to avoid fighting such an opponent. Aiden stood out as one of the shrewdest security captains throughout the generations. He was also shown to be highly observant, able to quickly determine when he was being spied on from afar. He was offered to become Supreme Chancellor of the Galactic Senate three times, and would have been offered a fourth one had he lived longer. Brokend Fincol, also among the most powerful Soldiers and Plumbers ever produced, found the idea of Aiden being single-handedly defeated absurd. In truth, Vilgax openly admitted that he would have lost if Aiden had the Prototype Omnitrix first instead of Alex, which Psyphon felt is a major testament to his abilities. Overall, Aiden can be considered a jack of all trades: he is extremely physically and mentally skilled, able to adapt to nearly any situation, and is only ever surpassed combat-wise Superhumans like Vilgax. His skills include Hand-to-hand combat, gun specialist, and to top it all, he is a master of disguise. All of his achievements alone made him the first human Magistratus of the Plumbers and made him worthy of wielding the Prototype Omnitrix according to Azmuth. Aiden's fighting style revolved mainly around suddenly appearing and just as quickly taking down enemies, often excluding traditional time-consuming methods such as reloading a firearm. 
Powers: 
Artificially Enhanced Physiology: According to Servantis, Aiden was already "an excellent athlete." As a result of the Plumber's experiments on him, The Super Soldier Serum enhanced all of Aiden's bodily functions, such as his strength, durability, speed, agility, stamina, reflexes, senses, healing, coordination, willpower, intelligence, instincts, lifespan, flexibility, dexterity, and equilibrium to enhanced levels and superior to any human. He possesses limitless physical energy, stamina, vitality and virility; he can keep working, fighting, and moving almost indefinitely. Even without training, his muscles are brawny and his perfect body shape doesn't change. He has the ability to see perfectly even in low light conditions or even total darkness. He is very muscular, athletic and physically capable. The injection initially made him either faint or temporarily die as Servantis felt no pulse before Aiden woke up, with extreme pain and bloody tears as side effects. He was painfully hurt until he mutated. His stress levels were raised high enough to trigger a mutation, and now his mutated cells can heal anything. Aiden said he got the cure to everything and Servantis said he apparently made him immortal. After his awakening, his whole body boosted to levels that far exceed those of a normal human. The Super Soldier Serum also healed all of his ailments, physical and genetic imperfections instantly, giving him a perfect body better than that of a man in his physical prime. It also prevents him from getting intoxicated by alcohol, meaning he cannot get drunk. The Super Soldier Serum permanently transformed him from a normal Soldier into the "perfect" specimen of human development and conditioning, or a Super-Soldier. 
Enhanced Strength: Aiden's physical strength is enhanced beyond the peak of human potential. His strength allows him to physically overpower elite-trained humans, extraterrestrial troops, and robot sentries. Aiden had initially required visible effort in bending metal bars when he just used the serum, but later he effortlessly slammed through solid walls and reinforced glass, pry open steel doors, and even briefly hold back an accelerating helicopter. Aiden also able to effortlessly crush a walkie-talkie from one of the Chinese police officers in one hand and tear off a taxi door with ease. Aiden's immense strength allows for him to send enemies flying several meters in the air from mere punches and kicks during his fight. He can even generate enough force to have a car door pierce the metal frame of a Quinjet. During his Plumber tours, Aiden was able to lift a motorcycle frame with three showgirls sitting on top without any strain. With one hand, Aiden can lift a grown man over his head and throw him like a rag doll. He was also able to pull himself away from the immense magnetic force applied on his hand by a magnetic handcuff, which humans are impossible to achieve. Aiden was able to lift a large metal support beam to save a trapped Soldier, while he was critically injured. He also supported falling debris from a small collapsing building to save Yaroslava and himself with help from her batons. While chopping wood, Aiden easily ripped apart a block of a wood trunk in half with his bare hands. He was also able to throw a moving motorcycle at a jeep with no required effort, and support the weight of an entire car during the Forever Knight's initial attack on the Macgrath Manor. Aiden even stopped a helicopter, piloted by Deathstroke from lifting off by pulling on its landing gear with extreme effort. In Lagos, Aiden kicked a 1.48-ton pickup truck with enough force to dent it and send an enemy soldier flying away upon impact. While Aiden' strength is rivalled by enhanced beings like Captain America Black Panther, Winter Soldier (with his natural arm), and Deathstroke. He was surpassed by the likes of Vilgax and Aggregor. Aiden's strength combined with his astonishingly effective muscle control, can greatly enhance his profound fighting skills, making him an incredibly formidable opponent. Aiden can overpower extraterrestrial troops with ease, being able to easily overpower several Vilgaxia soldiers, simultaneously lifting, throwing, and knocking them away with ease, even chopping their arms out with a sword. With that sword, he was able to tear through the durable skin of Outriders and kill many of them, as well as robots. He was able to easily overpower many Sentries and rip them apart with his bare hands. Moreover, Aiden's experience of unarmed and armed combatants allows him to subdue those of equal strength, such as when Aiden successfully overpowered Deathstroke by restraining him while firmly breaking his arm and leaving him unconscious after an extended period of choke-holding him, and successfully forcing him to drop the key. Later on, during Escape from the JCTC, Aiden was able to hold off Winter Soldier's cybernetic arm combined with his natural arm for a while, and using both of his hands to briefly hold himself against Winter Soldier's cybernetic arm before being overpowered and got punched through an elevator shaft. He can be strong enough to push back both Alex in his Four Arms form and Delsin with little difficulty, knocking Alex far away with a kick and grounding Delsin, and later breaking out of Spider-Monkey's web and using it to pull Spider-Monkey to him and knocking him down repeatedly while holding back. With aid from Yaroslava, Aiden was able to eventually overpower VIilgax by pummelling him and forcing him to be pinned down even when he had activated his Heat Vision mid-fight. He dismantled pieces of Vilgax's armor and destroyed its power source with a single blow from his shield with great effort. During this fight, Vilgax's readings recorded his punching power at 1,346.206 newtons (302.6 pounds of force). Aiden was able to hold himself against long enough for Slade to help catch him. Aiden was able to hold himself against a Battle Droid and even tossed him through a solid pillar, hold back Vilgax's attempt to stab Yaroslava, and contend against Glaive to enough degree to effectively block his blows, even tackling him by ramming against him and knocking him down with a strong punch from his vibranium gauntlets. Even most impressively, with all his strength fuelling his determination, Rogers was able to hold his own against Vilgax even though it only last for moments. Nevertheless, Aiden was able to slightly stagger Vilgax with a few blows from his collapsible Plumber Shields and exerted all of his maximum potential strength with both his arms to briefly halt Vilgax from pulling the trigger on Alex, though he was not nearly using his full strength, but this incredible feat of strength that eventually surprised Vilgax, despite the fact he was completely unmatched for the Warlord. Later on, Aiden was able to make Vilgax slightly stumble with a kick to the head despite his helmet, and momentarily restrain Vilgax hard enough to make him grunt in discomfort while he and Alex gradually pushed his fist into Vilgax's head. They nearly succeeded in stopping him and ultimately forced Vilgax to use both hands to swiftly overpower him and Alex. After Devlin moved a bulldozer in a far distance, he asked a S.H.I.E.L.D. trainer, who records the time, to see if he beat Aiden' time. The S.H.I.E.L.D. trainer replied, saying that Devlin was "not even close". In other words, Aiden was able to move a bulldozer much faster than Delvin himself. Aiden's physical strength is enhanced to the early levels of a superhuman condition. Aiden's innate superhuman physical might alone rivaled that of Yaroslava, able to use his legs and right arm to deliver strikes of exceptional force that can casually incapacitate and launch his opponents flying several meters away, through walls and knock them out even while holding back not to kill them. He was quite capable of affecting and hurting Yaroslava with blows from both his normal hand and legs. Aiden was also able to match Black Panther in his suit in terms of strength and manage to hold his attempts to kill him at bay. Aiden also proved able to easily handle the Rooters, who were similarly enhanced by the Serum, with only his natural strength, as shown by how he knocked down a Rooter with a leaping punch during a training exercise and staggered another with a punch, he easily launched a Rooter recruiter flying through the air, knocked him out with two kicks, and quickly stunned and lifted another off his feet and tossed him to the ground. Later on, his enhancements afforded him the strength to effectively fight against Walker, who was not only a Super Soldier but also already physically fit and athletic, able to hurt and make him bleed with his blows, hold Walker when he tried to use the shield to hit him in the chest to a stalemate, and help Delsin to disarm him by firmly restraining him for Delsin to successfully rip away the shield, before easily stunning him with a punch to the face and man-handling him for Delsin to deal the finishing blow. However, Aiden was unable to outmatch Vilgax in strength, as the latter was able to overpower him and steal his sword. Aiden possessed enhanced strength. This allowed him to break free from ropes around his hands, easily throw around fully grown adults with just one hand, and kick Deathstroke through two wooden church pews. He was able to match his strength with a Tamaranean soldier. Aiden's physical strength proved powerful enough to overcome a Vaxasaurian, and allowed him to effortlessly crush a glass cup in his hand. Aiden's muscular system was greatly enhanced, allowing him to exert incredible strength. He was capable of effortlessly lifting a man by the neck with one hand, and could tackle him into a wall with enough force that it smashed portions off of the wall. He was able to launch Hon's men several meters through the air, and could easily break an assault rifle in half with his bare hands. He could pierce a man's chest just by punching them with his fist at full strength and could apply enough force to The Butcher's head with both hands to kill him. During the Cuba incident, he displayed enough strength to take on several trained soldiers at once and overpower them without any visible signs of effort. He was able to send one through a wall of corrugated metal and backhand another with his shield with enough force to catapult him hundreds of feet away. He was also able to easily overpower the entire team in melee combat and nearly kill their leader. His shield is extremely heavy, so much so that normal humans are unable to even move it, yet Aiden himself can effortlessly wield it one-handed. According to Alex, he is strong enough to lift and throw a full-sized car like a child's toy. A true testament to his strength was his ability to match Vilgax in a brutal hand-to-hand brawl, where the two initially appeared evenly matched, trading staggering blows, dealing considerable damage to the surrounding area, catching Vilgax's fist in a test of strength and throwing him around like a ragdoll. Vilgax himself remarked that his initial evaluation of Aiden's strength concerned him, and even before actually facing him in combat, he was likewise concerned about having to fight him. During his fight against Hydra, he was able to overpower a soldier with ease, effortlessly thwarting her ambush attempt. He also defeated a V24-empowered agent in melee combat, using his superior strength to knock him unconscious. Aiden's strength is well-above the parameters of the normal human. With his kicks, he can launch a full-grown man of considerable weight several meters away and likewise trade blows of against foes of considerable strength. His raw strength can also shove a man high into the air casually lift them high above his head. He was able to push one of his swords through solid concrete behind Ming's shoulder. 
Enhanced Attacking Speed: Aiden can punch and kick with enough speed to make the blow invisible to the naked eye, create a miniature sonic boom, or slam holes through four feet of solid steel.
Enhanced Durability: The serum made Aiden incredibly durable. Though he is not bulletproof, he can survive extreme blunt force trauma, such as being hit with solid objects like a shield, or contact with superhuman opponents like Deathstroke, the Winter Soldier, and Vilgaxl. He is capable of surviving falls from immense heights that would definitely kill a normal human. Aiden has been tasered, shot, stabbed, caught in several explosions, and taken several beatings including being blasted off of a causeway into a city bus by a launched grenade. He even fell from the 30th floor of the Triskelion on his back with little discomfort, and survived a beating from the titanium arm of the Winter Soldier in the face multiple times. With his enhanced physiology, Aiden is able to recover in efficient time and continue fighting after taking powerful blows. Another example of his durability is when Nick Fury tried to tase him with the Taser Rod, which he resisted for more than five seconds with endurable discomfort whereas ordinary humans would become unconscious almost immediately on contact. Aiden also dropped down to one of Project S.H.I.E.L.D. Insight's helicarrier from a considerable height without injury. Aiden was able to dive out of a Quinjet without a parachute into open water then swim all the way to the ship's anchor. He was able to survive both of Vilgax heat vision blasts and his gun straight in the chest, as well as Shen's telekinetic bolts and a super-accelerated punch from XLR8, all without any noticeable damage whatsoever. Aiden was even able to withstand being telekinetically knocked away by Vilgax and quickly recover to stand against the Warlord for a while on his own. Even after being briefly incapacitated by a powerful punch from Vilgax, who did not use his full strength. Nevertheless, Aiden was once again able to eventually get back up on his feet. He was later able to withstand powerful blows from Vilgax, with only some bleeding scars and critical bruises. Aiden's bones and muscles are denser and more resilient than a normal human's. Aiden even managed to survive a fall from immense heights into the Danube River in the Swiss Alps that his comrades, unaware of his enhancements, believed to have been fatal. Further experimentation by the Rooter's greatly fortified his physique; to the extent that he routinely leaps from significant heights onto hard surfaces and lands without any apparent injury. Aiden was able to leap off a bridge onto the top of a car below, crushing the roof and shattering the windows while he was unfazed by the landing. He was also able to withstand blows from various opponents that would have seriously injured or killed an average person. Aiden also withstood getting brutally hit by the droids and their energy blast, and while in Dagobah, survived crashing through a forest whilst falling from an approximate 200 feet drop and withstood crashing through a forest during it. Aiden's body was far more resilient to trauma than a normal human. His impressive resilience allowed him to endure blows from Deathstroke and Deadpool, individuals who match his physical strength, without sustaining any lasting or incapacitating injuries. The Super Soldier Serum increased the resistance of the muscle and bone structure of Aiden, causing them to become more durable than a normal human's, as he was barely fazed while being hit with large tree branches, which was done by both one of Hon's men and by Sarah. He could survive being repeatedly shot in the chest at close range, and endured the journey from Yu without permanent injuries. In addition, when Aiden was punched by Drake, also injected with the serum, he was barely fazed. Aiden is durable enough to withstand assault rifle rounds fired at point-blank range in his mouth, burning by oxy-acetylene flame, cutting by power-saws, and blades being struck against his eyes. Indeed, Russian scientists spent several days performing experiments to test his durability, and ultimately failed to harm him. During his fight against with the agents, he was able to withstand direct attacks from each of its members, including an explosive blast from the TNT Brothers. Another astonishing feat of durability is Aiden's ability to withstand punishing attacks from Vilgax with no visible wounds or signs of injury, being the only person to have ever done so. He endured many punches and being thrown into walls, each time getting back up to counter with his own attacks. Although, while not breaking skin or bruising, Vilgax attacks did have enough force to eventually stagger Aiden and knock him down. This encounter showered that Aiden's durability is on par or even superior to Vilgax's, considering Vilgax was left with a bruise for the first time while Aiden had no wounds. Aiden is also capable of withstanding an nuclear explosions without taking any damage, though he appears to feel intense pain afterwards, as he was visibly wincing when preparing to blast Vilgax and when he was going to detonate the tower. Later, when Khyber was preparing to fight Aiden by sharpening his blades, Vilgax commented that they could not pierce his skin, revealing that even if they were wielded by an inhumanly strong foe such as Khyber, they would still prove useless. During his fight against the mutants, he was able to withstand multiple Heat Vision attacks, first from Laura, then from both Benny and Lamar. Aiden even survived a direct, prolonged laser-blast to the face from Vilgax, which only left a small cut on his cheek. Ajden's durability and endurance have been enhanced to superhuman levels, able to trade blows with exceptional strong foes, even harming the inhumanly strong Ching. He also was unfazed when he crashed through a car's glass roof from a highway several miles above it. This also grants him an enhanced tolerance to pain, making it hard to slow him down, to which even then he can quickly rebind, letting him continuously fight at full strength. For a more desperate situation, he is even willing to cut off his limb to escape. 
Enhanced Speed: Aiden can run and move at great speeds and even outrun speeding vehicles or cover a small area such as city blocks in seconds as well. Delsin stated that Aiden ran thirteen miles in thirty minutes after their warm-up jogging. Even while completely unmatched, Aiden was quick enough to surprise Alex as XLR8 before he got back up and briefly stun him with a kick. Similarly, while overwhelmed by Vilgax, Aiden was able to surprise him enough to land three hits on him. At peak capacity, Aiden proves to be as fast as Yaroslava, as during the Battle of the truth, when he ran at almost equal speeds with her when rushing towards A.I.M. His speed is tremendously enhanced beyond the peak of human potential, moving into the early levels of superhuman condition. Aiden's speed is equal to Yaroslava, as he was able to stay ahead of her with a slight head start and match her speed in combat, countering her attacks and delivering his own. Aiden has also repeatedly been able to easily handle the similarly enhanced Rooters in combat. He was able to match and surpass their speed to deliver several powerful blows that quickly defeated them, easily kick one down before they could react, intercept a soldier before he could hit Max, and outrun them to stop them from attacking Delsin. He also proved able to stay in combat with Walker after he had taken the serum, being able to keep up with and deliver blows of his own even when Walker was using his shield to block, dodging his attacks, intercepting him from killing Delsin, eventually easily managing to move faster than Walker and man-handle him before he could attack him. Aiden was also able to overtake and catch up to a speeding truck during the event the family death. Aiden could run at speeds that surpass any olympic athlete. He was able to run from the submarine to the other side of the island, where Delsin and Alex were held, in minutes while it took at least a few hours for everyone else to traverse the island on foot. Aiden also killed three of Sebastian's men behind him, dove in front of Blood and disappeared again in a matter of seconds. When an Hitman was out on patrol looking for him, Aiden was already behind her on one of the rooftops, when she turned around he was already gone. Aiden may be fast enough to disappear in a second when someone looks away. While the full extent of his speed has not been seen, he is quick enough to take on several soldiers at the same time. When his group was attacked, he reacted instantly to shield himself before an enemy soldier began to open fire. He possesses speed superior to that of even the finest human athlete. He is capable of moving fast enough to easily outmaneuver rapid gunfire. Confined spaces could not limit his movement at all, allowing him to overpower and kill multiple attackers after landing in their car. 
Enhanced Leg Muscles: His powerful leg muscles and bone composition are superhumanly enhanced as well, enabling him to run for incredibly long periods of time and distances, leap several stories in height or over a small house in a single bound, and kick with incredible force and power. 
Enhanced Agility: Aiden can coordinate his body with perfect balance, equilibrium, flexibility, and dexterity. While escaping the destruction of the HYDRA base that Alex and Delsin were held captive in, Aiden was able to leap from one end of the complex to the other in order to escape. During his chase of the Red Eyed Phantom, he was able to leap from the inside of his apartment into the building across the street. Aiden can leap over cars with simple running moves. Aiden can use his enhanced agility to perform amazing parkour and gymnastic moves that would be impossible for a normal human to accomplish. Aiden's enhanced agility surpasses that of normal human capabilities, even highly trained, Olympic gold medalists. Aiden can leap higher and further than normal humans, being able to leap onto the doors on a speeding truck during the Chase, as well as quickly leap on top of midsize cars in a single bound while running. Aiden is also able to perform complicated acrobatic flips in order to avoid gunfire and to quickly dive into cover. Aiden's agility was enhanced beyond the capabilities of any human. This was evidenced during his fight with Yaroslava; when he was thrown into the air by the latter, he was able to twist in mid air to successfully execute a landing on his feet. Despite already possessing impressive mobility due to the training he received as an agent, the Super Soldier Serum serum made Aiden much more agile than any normal human could be. This may have allowed him to quickly appear on a rooftop behind the Hitman, and disappear from sight in the mere moments in took for him to turn around. Aiden has flawless coordination, equilibrium, and dexterity. He can manipulate all of his bodily rotations, including spinning, turning, rolling, etc., allowing him to move his body in any way or direction, escape any restraint, and avoid any attack from any direction. He can perform any physical activity without difficulty like jumping and running along falling debris of an exploded train while in midair. Aiden's flexibility, balance, dexterity, and coordination are well-beyond the natural physical limits of even the finest human athlete. He has inhuman leaping capabilities, able to could jump several feet from a stationary position, and with his body control, able to execute a variety of complex twists, turns, and flips while in mid-air. 
Enhanced Stamina: Aiden's body eliminates the excessive build-up of fatigue-inducing lactic acid in his muscles and his musculature produces fewer fatigue toxins during physical activity than the musculature of an ordinary human, granting him exceptional endurance and lung capacity, greater than that of normal humans. Aiden can exert himself at peak capacity for several hours without showing any sign of fatigue, allowing him to fight for long periods of time. Additionally, Aiden can hold his breath underwater for several minutes and will not lose breath or get exhausted due to his stamina extending to his lung capacity. Aiden was able to run for 13 miles without any noticeable sign of fatigue. Aiden was also able to hold his breath underwater to intercept a spy in his miniature submarine for brief periods of time. Moreover, Aiden has a higher level of endurance than a normal human. It allows him to remain calm in stressful situations and able to endure high levels of pain. His musculature produces far fewer fatigue toxins during physical activity than the musculature of an ordinary human, allowing him to exert himself at peak capacity for hours before tiring. Hence, he could endure the Vilgaxia war and the Galactic Civil Car without showing signs of fatigue. Aiden, alongside Yaroslava, was able to participate in the Ambush at Hydra's base against them, then go on to fight Walker, all of whom had also been enhanced by the Super Soldier Serum, and by the end of it was still strong enough to walk away from the fight. Thanks to the Super Soldier Serum, Aiden's body produced far less fatigue toxins, allowing him to exert himself at peak capacity for longer than any human could. His stamina was so seemingly inexhaustible that Aiden was able to swim non-stop across an entire ocean to escape from Yu without drowning, as well as allowing him to take down and kill multiple highly trained agents. Aiden can fight his enemies for prolonged periods of time without getting tired or wearing out. This is proven in his fights against Vilgax, A.I.M. and Hydra. Aiden's body produces from little to no fatigue poisons. This allows him to exert himself at peak capacity for as long as he desires. 
Enhanced Reflexes: Aiden' reflexes allow him to dodge rapid gunfire at close range and was once able to evade gunfire from a Quinjet's Gatling gun with ease as he was accelerating towards the airship on his motorcycle. Aiden's auto-reflexes allow him to easily dodge gunfire, and respond quickly to fast-paced combat soldiers which they subdued by him before they can even aim their weapons on him. He also quickly dodged the accelerated helicopter blades that were coming towards him after pulling down the helicopter that Yaroslava was flying in. His immense reflexes can also be used to attack and counter instead of just defensive purposes, allowing him to punish attacks with devastating counters when fighting extraordinary quick opponents. Aiden was also able to easily catch a Wookiee's spear when it was hurled at him, and even had enough reflexes to stop Vilgax's left hand, before it could hit him, and was able to react to his attacks and block them with his fist. His reflexes are responsive enough to catch a shield being thrown at him at a high velocity. He was also able to catch enemy grenades thrown at him, as well as projectiles such as knives and poles, dodge fire from a Soivet's Soldier Steyr SPPs, and leap on top of a moving car accelerating towards him with pinpoint accuracy. His reflexes are also fast enough to dodge or block Alex's Diamondhead attacks and Delsin's attacks. It also helps him to catch objects that are hurled towards him. He was able to catch a knife thrown at him as well as catch a metal pole thrown at him by Morgenthau with deadly force. He possessed enhanced reflexes. He was able to fight multiple combatants at once, intercepted a lasso around his forearm, and was able to dodge a shuriken thrown at him by Yuri which cut his bullet in half while in midair. The Super Soldier Serum further enhanced Aiden's reflexes, allowing him to react to attacks instantly. He was able to instantly catch an attack from Clark, as well as catch Sarah when she launched at him, despite the fact that on each of these occasions they were both coming at him from behind. Aiden was also able to use his sword to slash multiple arrows shot at him from a close range. Aiden's reaction time is lightning-fast. It allows him to react to danger and events far faster than others. When shot at by multiple machine guns and a tank's artillery shell at point-blank, Aiden dodged, deflected, and sliced through them all with incredible ease, all while continuously charging forward. His reflexes and speed allowed him to match Vilgax in a physical brawl, evading many of Vilgax's initial attacks and quickly countering with his own. During his fight against the Forever Knights, Aiden was able to effortlessly thwart an ambush attempt by a knight, grabbing her by the neck as she attempted to take him by surprise, all without even looking at her. Aiden is very alert and fast-reacting, able to dodge and deflect bullets without much effort. He can react to multiple opponents simultaneously, even from behind to quickly counter. During his duel with Packie, Aiden easily caught an axe thrown at him at high speeds. 
Superhuman Momentum: Aiden can control the acceleration of his own body, allowing him to attack or dodge anything without warning and at peak perfection. Aiden can generate great amounts of physical force through kinetic energy, even in a stationary position. His speed lets him channel the force into powerful strikes, Aiden can swing a blade with enough force to slice a wall and still cut clean through a person. Aiden's physical abilities are heightened to the point where he can perform any physical act without difficulty. He merely needs to imagine himself doing the act in his mind, then he is able to perform it without any problem. This could range from free running, to juggling swords, to doing multiple back-flips. 
Enhanced Dexterity: Aiden possesses superhuman dexterity that enables him to achieve any feat with his feet as proficiently as his hands. Furthermore, his manual and pedal dexterity is so great that he can write using both hands at once or tie knots in rope with his toes. He is also superhumanly ambidextrous, able to use both of his hands and feet with equally superhuman proficiency. 
Enhanced Flexibility: All of the bones in Aiden's body, including his skull, are malleable and his muscle tissue is exceedingly resilient, making him body extremely flexible and pliant. This enables him to stay in a crouched position for an indefinite amount of time and perform virtually any contortionist-type feats without any harm to his spinal column whatsoever. He is triple-jointed, enabling him to bend his body in anyway imaginable. It is nearly impossible for him to break a bone or tear a muscle. Hence, Aiden can stretch and bend his body in ways that would tear ligaments and survive impacts that would kill or inflict major injury upon a normal human being with little or no injury to himself . Aiden is extraordinarily limber and his tendons and connective tissues are four times as elastic as the average human being is, despite their enhanced strength. This greatly helps in combination with the rest of his physical prowess, as he is able to move and bend in ways that would normally harm someone without harm befalling him whatsoever. He can compress his body very tightly, so that he can fit through tight spaces, about 4 inches in diameter. 
Enhanced Balance, Coordination, and Equilibrium: He has the uncanny ability to achieve a state of perfect equilibrium in virtually any position imaginable in any location. However, he seems to instinctively know how to adjust his position in order to maintain perfect balance on any object, no matter how narrow or small it may be. His coordination is beyond superhuman, as he is able to coordinate the entirety of his muscular system in order to execute any task he desires. 
Enhanced Kinesthesia and Proprioception: Aiden possesses the superhuman ability to sense the position of any part of his body in correlation to any other part of the body. This enables him to determine the status of any of his body part’s in correlation to their position. This helps him in evading and dodging enemies, obstacles, dangers, etc. 
Enhanced Senses: Aiden's senses were enhanced to superhuman levels. This was shown when he could hear Delsin's heartbeat and breathing in the church, despite the latter being hidden from plain sight. Aiden's displayed greater sensory range after receiving Super Soldier Serum. He was able to smell the TNT of a Japanese landmine strapped to a man's chest. It can also be assumed that he is able to see as well as hear, at a far greater range, and in a greater capacity than any normal human could. He has been aware of attacks that were coming from the opposite direction of where he was facing. It is possible Aiden has increased hearing, as he seemed to pick up on something Billy and Carl couldn't hear during their search for Hugger. Aiden sensed a man was about to break into his and Vanessa's apartment. 
Enhanced Sight: Aiden possesses superhuman visual acuity. He can see things at a maximum distance much greater than a normal human's; his vision extends all the way into the ultraviolet and infrared areas of the electromagnetic spectrum, granting him perfect night vision. His pupils allow a greater range of vision above and below him, enabling him to more easily detect the movements of an opponent and the flicker-fusion rate of his retinas is reduced to such an extent that he can easily perceive fast-moving objects that would appear to others as a blur. 
Enhanced Taste: His sense of taste can detect 1 part of foreign matter in 10,000. 
Enhanced Smell: His highly developed olfactory sense and memory allow him to detect and track a scent over eight hours old, possibly a concentration of 20 parts per million, that he had not been exposed to for up to several months previously. He is able to recognize people and objects by scent, even if they are well hidden. He can track a target by scent and selectively sort through various odors, even if the scent has been greatly eroded by time and weather factors, with an impressive degree of success. He can detect a subtle alteration in the composition of perspiration that reflect mood or emotions, and is highly sensitive to pheromones. Aiden can also use his keen sense of smell to detect lies due to chemical changes within a person's scent. 
Enhanced Hearing: His hearing is enhanced similarly, enabling him to hear a whispered conversation through a standard soundproof barrier. His hearing is sufficiently acute to detect a sound pressure level change from 4 decibels to 6 dB at a range of 40 feet (12m). 
Enhanced Touch: Aiden possesses transparent, almost invisible vibrissae that grant him a superhumanly acute sense of touch. These grant him extraordinary sensation and navigation. He can detect minute changes in the temperature and pressure in his immediate environment, as well as the motion and/or disturbance of air currents surrounding him. 
Danger Sense: Aiden has the ability to sense and react to any form of danger instants before it strikes. His danger sense, which is internally linked with his superhuman reflexes, kinesthesia and proprioception, enables him to evade, dodge, and avoid almost any form of danger, no matter how fast, subtle, or sudden it may be. It also enables him to judge his position in midair, where he can grab an object to swing onto, etc. It alerts him to all dangers, including non-deadly, subtle, or even non-harmful threats (such as snowballs, swatting brooms, creaky or crumbly floors, etc.). If he is somehow blinded, Aiden's danger sense tells him how to avoid obstacles that he cannot see. It is always active, even when he is asleep or unconscious, activating his reflexes almost as immediately as it would if he was awake. He can ignore the danger sense if he wished, however. When he moves across the battlefield, his danger sense informs what objects are nearby, judges his position, where he can grab onto an object, and if it is a safe object. He can also sense, evade, and dodge any attacks randomly fire or shot by a mindless or robotic being. It is not limited merely to danger happening to him. It also detects danger to anyone he cares for and loves, including family, friends, etc. 
Enhanced Accuracy: Aiden was lethal accuracy with firearms, making him an incredible sniper and sharpshooter. He was able to quickly draw his sidearm and shoot Logan's cigar without hitting him. He possessed great situational awareness, as during the Nigerian mission he was able to take out several guards while maneuvering through the air, and even reload his pistols by throwing them into the air and catching them with the magazines he was holding in his hands. During Logan's escape, he shot him in the head, and he only survived due to his new adamantium skeleton. He later shot and killed the Jefferson's from a distance with his sniper rifle. Aiden possesses uncanny aim with firearms far beyond the level of mastery ordinarily obtainable to non-super soldiers. When Norman hid behind a support column in a parking garage, Aiden then shifted his aim so that his shot ricocheted off a water pipe, through a parked car's passenger and driver windows, off a second support column, which then grazed Norman's cheek. Moreover, he was able to do this while viewing Norman's through a mounted mirror in the parking garage. 
Enhanced Intelligence: Aiden's mental performance has been greatly enhanced to operate in the most efficient and rapid manner possible. Some manifestations of this are his exceptionally perfect charisma, eloquence, leadership skills, deductive skills, analytical skills, and tactical genius. Aiden has demonstrated the ability to quickly process multiple information streams and rapidly respond to any changing tactical situations by creating perfect winning strategies. Aiden possesses perfect memory as demonstrated when he was able to perfectly replicate the locations of all HYDRA bases on a map, despite "only getting a glance," as well as retain obscure details of his youth with his brother even the latter could not. He also remembered what he said to him after his mother's funeral 78 years earlier. It took him less than a minute to realize that his "perfect world" was a lie because he remembered the baseball game being broadcasted on the radio. Aiden is able to learn anything, such as memorize, understand, and recall all kinds of information and skills within short period of time much faster than normal humans. He was able to quickly master Vietnam war-era armed force disciplines including intelligence gathering, espionage, escape arts, demolitions, survival, swimming, mountaineering, march, or drill skills, cartography, map reading, communications, and army vehicle skills. Moreover, even though he was unconscious, Aiden was able to recall the conversation Plumbers Officers had. Further evidence of his mental capacity enhancement is that he is able to anticipate the angle of deflection when a shield is thrown, when it deflects off of his target which can change from hard metal surfaces to yielding human bodies and still ensure that the shield returns to his hand. Even with his limited knowledge of modern technology, Aiden was still able to help Nick Fury repair a Helicarrier to prevent it from crashing, and help Alwz to set up their plan, or when he quickly gave his troops an efficient plan to minimize and contain damage in the battlefield from the Chitauri invasion. Aiden also quickly assimilated to modern culture through extensive reading and the internet. Since the Super Soldier Serum amplifies personality aspects as well, Aiden's brain chemistry is also altered. Though Aiden was brave, determined, and compassionate before, the serum has also amplified those character traits. Aiden can learn much faster than an ordinary human. For instance, he became highly proficient in using weapons such as a spear, Glaive's glaive, Scepter, Hammer, and Axe by quickly learning to use them within short period of time. Indeed, Aiden was the only Plumber who was able and worthy to wield Ascalon, despite Azmuth's claims to Alex that any attempts to lift the weapon of a similar type by one who is not worthy would result in their bodies crumbling and their minds simultaneously collapsing into madness. Aiden possessed enhanced brain functions as he can process information at a faster rate and quickly adapt to his situation. This was seen during his fight with Dick Grayson and Koriand'r, where he changed his tactics to suit the fighter and the circumstances. He was also able to discern that his son Delsin was a rare genius and prodigy like himself and wife. 
Regenerative Healing Factor: The Super Soldier Serum granted Aiden physiology an accelerated rate of healing and regeneration. Aiden is immune to earthly infections, diseases, and disorders as well as the inability to become intoxicated by alcohol, drugs, or impurities. Aiden's metabolic rate is able to withstand the consumption of Asgardian ale which was aged for a millennium in the barrels built from the wreck of Grunhel's fleet and deemed by Thor to not be intended for mortal men to drink. Thanks to his enhanced metabolism and immune system, Aiden was able to survive in sub-zero temperature over the course of several months. Aiden is capable of healing large cuts and bruises within hours and fatal gunshot wounds and fractures within several days. Aiden was able to regenerate from being shot in the stomach by a Chitauri gun directly in the abdomen in a matter of minutes. His injuries can heal and regenerate rapidly and perfectly without leaving a trace. Aiden is able to regain consciousness in a short amount of time after nearly dying. He is also immune to poisonous gas as during the Attack on the IFID Headquarters, when Aiden went into the building, he was completely unharmed from the poison effects whereas a terrorist soldier, whose gas mask was taken off by Aiden , was instantly suffering from the gas. His body is able to heal with extraordinary speed and efficiency, at a rate well beyond that of a regular human being. His healing also prevented to be intoxicated by alcohol. This may be one of the factors of his survival from the Swiss Alps. His healing has also allowed him to quickly recover from injuries received in battle; the injuries he had received during combat with Vilgax healed in a matter of days without bruising or scarring. In the span of a single day, he was able to fully recover from the vicious wounds he suffered from fighting Walker with ease without any lasting bruises or scars. The Super Soldier serum injection had greatly augmented Aiden's ability to heal, allowing him to rapidly recover from even the most crippling, debilitating and grievous of injuries, so long as they would not immediately be fatal. By the time he awoke after the injection, the injuries on the right side of his face and the after-effects of his injuries earlier were completely healed. He was shown to be shot through the chest, and it does not affect his abilities. According to him, Aiden was carried under the water after his defeat by Clark and was badly torn apart by the rocks, but his body was eventually healed. Though highly resistant to most forms of damage, Aiden did receive a cut on his cheek after being subjected to a prolonged Heat Vision blast by Vilgax. However, when he was later recaptured and imprisoned by Mallory, the wound on his cheek had already disappeared. His body was enhanced, granting him rapid cellular regeneration, enabling him to quickly heal from any injury, even able to regrow entire lost anatomy. Minor injuries, like bullet wounds and broken bones, take mere minutes to recover. While full dismemberment takes hours to restore, which goes through a period of accelerated maturing, starting as an infant-like limb before becoming fully grown. Even more, his healing powers leave him immune to any form of illness and contaminate, able to even cure himself of a cold that was previously ravaging his body. Getting stabbed in the head only momentarily left him dazed and hallucinating. Any injuries he suffers immediately heal, even if he is decapitated, disintegrated, blown up or completely incinerated, he will still return to life in perfect condition. 
Contamination Immunity: He is immune to all poisons, toxins, venoms, viruses, bacteria, allergen, diseases, etc. 
Self-Sustenance: He does not need to eat, drink or breathe. 
Immortality: Due to his regenerative capabilities, Aiden is immune to physical age. He is also virtually impossible to kill and cannot be infected by any kind of disease. 
Pain Suppression: Aiden is either completely immune to pain, or has developed a great tolerance for it, as he doesn't react when Zaheer uses his self detonation, leaving him with severe burns on his head and chest, or when Tommy shoots through his hand at point blank. He also did not show any discomfort when he cut out his tracking chip from his wrist.
Immunity: The Super Soldier Serum also made Aiden somewhat insusceptible to liquor and drugs. Although not too immune, as Clark was able to knock him out using a tranq arrow.
Toxin Immunity: Aiden appears to be very resilient towards harmful substances and poisons. When he drank one of an Asgardian ale, it didn't knock him out and he mistook it as a very strong drink. While in Russian confinement, he managed to withstand ingesting sulfuric acid cocktails and his body is also completely immune to Halothane gas, being able to casually inhale and exhale the substance as if inhaling from a cigar or cigarette. He was also merely knocked out by Novichok, which is one of the most dangerous toxins in the world. However, when Hydra attempted to later subdue Aiden, even Novichok appeared to have little effect on him, implying that he had also built up a resistance to it. 
Radiation Immunity: He can withstand being exposed to 20 sieverts of radiation, far above the lethal radiation dosage for humans. He can also withstand the amount of radiation of nuclear reactor, which has been compared to that of a nuclear reactor.
Psychic Immunity: During his fight with Captain Commie in Cuba, Aiden was apparently able to resist the telepath's mind control, even though Captain Commie was later able to influence Max without any difficulty. This implies that Aiden may have some level of resistance towards mind altering powers. 
Inodorosity: Aiden had no scent, making it difficult for the Wolverine to sense him.
Longevity: As a result of the Super Soldier Serum, Aiden ages much slower than the normal human, a trait he shares with fellow Super-Soldiers and family such as Yaroslava, Delsin, Alex, and Claire. He was 59 years old when he died, but retained the appearance of an adult man at his prime. 
Tactical Eye: One of his most well known and terrifying abilities, is his Tactical Eye. Once activated, his eyes is light blue in colour with a darkened sclera and visible pupil. While it grants him an extra-sensory vision of his general surroundings, the Eye's true ability is precognition, allowing Aiden to perfectly and efficiently anticipate all variables and his opponent's attacks and take action with absolute efficiency without any effort. He can adapt perfectly to all factors achieving maximum efficiency in offensive and defensive strategy, ensuring optimal results as long as there is the slightest chance and depending on the means at his disposal. A simple glance will detect his opponent's or obstacle's nature, strengths, weaknesses, etc. making Aiden a perfect military field strategist. Tactical Eye has the power to predict how a situation will happen before it starts. This allows him to run through a given situation millions of times in his mind, instantly covering every possible result before the first move is even made. He uses this information to predict the actions and or reactions of others, counteracting their moves almost before they even think to make them. Effectively making Aiden the greatest tactician in the history of mankind, as he is able to see all possible outcomes of any situation before it even takes place. According to Aiden, his powers also work by letting him see the outcome of the battle he wants, and working backwards, following the right steps to get there. This ability also works as a super computer, calculator, simulator, and grants Aiden an even further enhanced intellect, memory, deductive and tactical capabilities. His senses are incredibly enhance. His senses enables him to see, hear, smell, feel, and taste things imperceptible to humans. He automatically and passively notices, processes and understands any/all details of any situation or environment no matter how small, allowing him to intuitively understand and solve any situation no matter how difficult it may be. It doesn't matter how small the details are, he will automatically know and process them almost instantly. This allows him to detect any modifications or powers in anyone he looks at, as well as how they work, so he can defeat them. He can detect what special abilities a opponent has, he can see the enhancements. He can even detect electrical activity in the brain. It gives him enhanced sight and perception and thus advanced skills as a sniper. Aiden's skill with this was noted as being a cut above all others of his comrades. After training his tactical eye, Aiden's perception grew even stronger. Aiden is capable of using his eye to observe the blood flow, muscle movements and even the movements of his enemy's cells, allowing him to determine his enemy's weak points and strike them effectively. He's also capable of detecting when an opponent is holding back their power, as shown during his fight with Vilgax. Tactical Eye can see energy to a greater degree than Assassins Instinct. This enables him to distinguish certain types of clones from their original and even identify specific individuals' energy signatures. Its ability to see energy is acute enough to see the energy pathway system within a target's body and the 361 pressure points that run along it. It enables Aiden to analyse an opponent's tactics during a fight, granting him a certain amount of predictive ability. It greatly enhances his comprehension capabilities to convert the things he see into identifiable information. When using this ability, Aiden can determine the physical statistics of the people around them, including their abilities as well as their strengths and weaknesses, viewing anything from their heart rate to the tightness of their left shoulder from overuse. When used on an abiotic matter, it can be used to view the composition of matter, finding weak points in constructs to manipulate to his advantage such as a rusty bolt or a weak floorboard. Once in his direct focus on vision, the data is transferred into the brain, allowing him to quickly interpret the data to create a full strategy against his foes. Aiden can perceive the stress points, fracture planes, or weaknesses, physical or psychological, in all objects or persons around him. By striking and applying pressure at these points, he can split or shatter objects made of seemingly invincible substances or render insensate beings of far greater strength than he. This mental discipline is virtually effortless, and Aiden can attain this state of awareness for extended periods of time. Aiden has the ability to see fault in all things, including people, plans, and structures, and exploit it. In combat, he can quickly determine the best strategy by analyzing his opponents and their weak points. He has a habit of telling his enemies how many ways he can defeat them. Aiden can mentally visualize scenarios to identify any flaws in his course of action, bordering on precognition and conducting trial and error from his personal perspective if he must, to know when and how to properly intervene the proceedings as they happen in order to turn an imminent outcome in his favor, such as when he sliced a bullet in half with his hand. Aiden also has an internal clock and compass. It enables Aiden to see another person's body with extreme detail, such as breathing, muscle movements or muscle contractions, body tension, rhythm, sweat, etc. allowing Aiden to predict future movements. Aiden being able to see others potentials as well as their strengths and weaknesses, being able to notice other peoples' habits and behavior patterns, and lastly being able to observe others in order to copy their movements perfectly. He has the ability to see the names and lifespans of other lifeforms, making it easier to get the names of people before they say it. However, he cannot see his own lifespans or lifespans of other Tactical Eye wielders. Aiden will always see the names, even if they are not in the family registry. This implies Aiden does not necessarily need an official name for one to be seen and can always be killed. Regardless of his original eyesight, he gains a visual acuity of over 3.6 (about 72/20). Tactical eyes also possess a special ability that grants vision that resembles a HUD and improves his accuracy at will, allowing him to recognize enemies, and even "lock-on" in certain circumstances. When utilizing weapons that require accuracy, those whom are caught in his "lock-on" are typically unable to escape. Tactical Eye allows him to scan the environment, such as detecting living organisms, fast approaching objects, high-energy bodies and many other anomalies, thus keeping him on guard. However; it is not perfect, as he can still be confused by the extreme speed of an opponent like XLR8 or by certain creatures like a giant droid who are so large that Aiden's eye identify it as many different enemies. It's usefulness is also limited by Aiden's reaction time. Tactical is capable of detecting heat signatures, analyzing speeds, and levels of energy nearby. Once a target is locked on to, he will effectively keep track of it, even if the target is hidden by a smokescreen. It allows him to clearly see the value of someone's life-force. The lower the life-force, the seemingly closer they are to death. Known sensors include radar/lidar, night vision, and physiological/medical scanners that allow Aiden to take and monitor the vitals of other people, including heart and brain scans. These scans also provide Aiden with real-time personal physiological data. It is also capable of an all-environmental scan for atmospheric content or life forms--including astral energy projections. However, he has difficulty with his powers when he suffers injuries to his head. After extended use, the eyes begin to get strained, leading to pain and throbbing in the eyes and even headaches. Tactical Eye also can only analyze the data of something that he can see clearly in his direct field of vision. 
Soldiers Rage: Once activated, Aiden's eyes turn blue and his scleras turned black with white markings appearing around his pupils and a light aura enveloped his body. Blue markings also appeared all over his body and remain as scars once its effect ended. It allows Aiden to enter a berserker rage, increasing his physical capabilities. This can be triggered at will, but will also be triggered automatically if Aiden is extremely angry. When activated, Aiden will furiously shout and scream in a fit of rage when reactivated. It allows him to take less damage and inflict more damage on others, practically making him invincible. As the ability is activated, Aiden bursts into rage, and damage taken is reduced to half and damage given is increased on enemies. Aiden is unable to die while the ability is active, allowing him to survive lethal events such as explosions, heavy collisions, or being hit by trains or other locomotives. His field of view turns a red shade with a ripple visual effect and a buzzing sound effect, time slows down slightly, but never as slow as his wife's Assassins Instinct ability. He becomes invincible and his attacks doubled. And his point of view is also becomes orange-shaded when activated. He is able to resist serious to lethal damage like fire, explosions, various attacks and Sentry cannons. He also performs a special melee attack with up close enemies. It lets him absorb kinetic energy from every blow he takes and use it to make himself more powerful. This is a form of kinetic energy absorption, with Aiden subsequently redirecting said energy against his opponent. Aiden has the ability to absorb energy from the damage he has taken, and redirect it twice as hard at his opponent, effectively making him stronger with each hit he takes. He can save up the energy to use later for an even more devastating attack. When using Soldiers Rage, he draws power from inside. He gains the ability to dodge, attack or counter attack without having to think. It allows him to dash with an inhuman speed in whatever direction he chooses, often leaving trails of an invisible blur in his wake. Aiden is shown to be capable of creating powerful tailwinds with Soldiers Rage; if he gathers enough momentum, the resulting turbulence is capable of lifting people and objects off the ground. Aiden can also grab hold of other people or objects and carry them off at high speeds with Soldiers Rage. Aiden can move short to long distances at an almost untraceable speed. To an observer, it appears as if he has teleported. Aiden has somehow learned how to jump twice in the air. He uses this to jump over long distances and his first jump two times higher than his second. Aiden can shift his energy to his limbs to grant him greatly augmented strength, speed, and agility, an effect giving them the ability to run along nearly any surface. He is also capable of using his enhanced strength to perform a much slower, more controlled wall climb, which is useful for precision, accuracy and stealth when scaling buildings. He can perform an airdash, allowing him to avoid projectiles or increase the speed and distance of his Glide. Aiden can Glide, allowing him bridge gaps between buildings or to reach airborne enemies. Glide can be used to its utmost potential with the combination of airdash. Aiden can kick the air to jump higher, giving the appearance of flight. Aiden's speed is boosted to extreme levels while in Soldiers Rage. Aiden can kick the water multiple times in order to achieve the effect of "running" underwater. This technique allows him to travel at incredible speeds, resulting in traveling at least as fast or faster than an Atlantean underwater. It rendered him insensitive to pain, allowing him to ignore injury and endure vast amounts of damage into his body without any immediate consequence. However, despite this he was still susceptible to being injured, but counteracted his injuries through his healing factor to heal injuries sustained in battle. It creats an absolutely invulnerable full body that completely shields him from all attacks. Soldiers Rage does not weaken or break while within the set time limit. However, the use of Burning Mist causes Aiden to shatter all his energy after the 60 seconds have passed, effectively leaving him completely defenseless and open to being hurt. It strengthened his resolve which allowed him to carry through with his decisions, helping Aiden hyper-focus on his choices and suppress any feelings of doubt he had beforehand. It allows him to sense everything around him better than most people and react to attacks almost before they happen. He can even react to attacks that are outside his field of vision, such as people shooting him from behind. It allows him to create countermeasure against certain challenges. For example against an electric manipulator his electric resistance will rise after few minutes of entering the battle, if submerged in water he will steadily adapt to the pressure and his lungs will create glands to separate water from oxygen. Also each time the situation repeats himself the adaptations will be created faster and stronger. It allows Aiden to constantly adapt to any situation. He constantly acclimates to any situation, allowing him to adapt to stronger enemies better as battles go on. He is able to become completely undefeatable to a certain enemy if the battle is prolonged enough. The process time is proportionate to the power of his opponent. The principles of Soldiers Rage is to take advantage of the muscles' ability to grow stronger after repairing itself from damage. Understanding this theory, it can repair Aiden's body and increase its strength by manipulating the "Destruction and Rebirth" cycle of the muscles. It allows Aiden to survive any otherwise normally fatal damage and instantly heal from the damage. A unique trait of is that it can momentarily give him the appearance of death, fooling even the most talented doctors. It can physically enhance his speed, strength and healing capabilities to superhuman levels. It also alters the person's physical appearance drastically, making him younger and more fit in looks, greatly bulking his muscular physique. However, he can be forced out of it if he becomes incapacitated, stunned, or unconscious. When he enters Soldiers Rage, it becomes harder for him to maintain his humanity. 
Abilities: 
Indomitable will/ High pain-tolerance/Master survivalist: Aiden has a strong force of will. He was able to resist an Ectonurite's possession of his mind and body. He also has a high pain tolerance as he was able to resist torture when captured by enemy forces. Aiden has a high tolerance for pain, Lincoln had to pull a bullet out of Aiden's arm without any form of anesthetic, albeit he had to tie him up (on Aiden's suggestion) because he might kill Lincoln otherwise. He was also able to take down several of Edwards henchmen with an injured leg. Aiden also has the skills of a natural survivor as he continued to live stranded on Lian Yu by himself and later with Delsin and Alex. Aiden is absolutely fearless as he has decades of experience and has fought real life Nazis and Communist. Aiden himself has stated that he fears nothing. He can however be intimidated by certain things like being put back into a coma, as he will do anything to prevent it from happening, even blow up an entire building and everyone in it. 
Master Martial Artist: Aiden is an extremely skilled and formidable hand-to-hand combatant and martial artist, having extensive levels of knowledge of melee combat as well as being considerably experienced in combat operations, making him one of the most powerful and best fighters on the planet at the time. He has mastered numerous martial arts such as muay Thai, boxing, Krav Maga, Taekwondo, savate, wushu, judo, and Brazilian jiu-jitsu, kickboxing, wrestling, aikido, karate, wing chun, Kali in addition to several Ninjutsu disciplines, including Taijutsu, Kenjutsu, Bōjutsu, Sojutsu, Tantojutsu, Shurikenjutsu, Kayakujutsu, Shinobi-iri, and Intonjutsu.. Even in Vietnam, when he was still inexperienced, Aiden has already proven to be a skilled fighter, having used his knowledge of combat, his enhanced attributes, and sword to defeat hundreds of Vietnam soldiers with ease and even Vilgax himself. After getting the Plumber's Super Soldier Serum, Aiden was quickly put into action again and remained as skilled as ever; he was able to stand against a Sith in combat, holding him long enough for Phil to aid in arresting him, hold his own against an enraged Red Latern during their first encounter to standstill with aid of his sword, and also managed to defeat hordes of Chitauri aliens at the Battle of Endor. When a police officer questioned why Aiden should take orders from him, the latter easily defeated several attacking Chitauri soldiers, inducing the impressed officer to follow his orders without question. When he joined S.H.I.E.L.D., Aiden received more extensive training and became even more skilled in hand-to-hand combats and martial artists, proving more than capable of defeating several armed pirates, soldiers of HYDRA, a dozen STRIKE agents while limited by the confined space of an elevator, as well as having Batroc knocked out in a one-on-one fight with ease. Aiden have enough skill to evenly matched against opponents like Deathstroke and Winter Soldier. He was able to fight on par against both Deathstroke and Phil at the same time, sometimes even gain the upper hand in their first fight, though it should be noted that Black Panther's vengeance and full intentions wasn't targeting on Aiden but instead Yaroslava, and Deadshot didn't use any lethal weapons but only used a non-lethal round to attack him. He was also able to equally fight against the notorious Red Eyed Phantom in combat, being able to go toe-to-toe with her in their first fight and ultimately defeating the latter by putting him in a chokehold in their second fight, while their last fight ended in Yaroslava's victory due to Aiden being caught off guard. He was able to block most of Yaroslava blows during all of their battles. He was also able to match and eventually defeat an armored Sentry. Aiden can use his combat skills to hold his own against or even defeat considerably stronger opponents, with him swiftly beating the inexperienced Alex while holding back. He held his own against and landed some hits on Albedo, gave Kevin a prolonged fight, and easily overwhelming Felix in hand-to-hand combat and forcing him to use a advanced combat analysis. Felix even needed to use his weapons to overwhelm him briefly, and yet eventually still won against him with aid from Yaroslava, who distracted Felix by grabbing onto his leg before getting hit. Aiden easily disarmed and competed against Psyphon shortly before he could gain the upper hand, and even ultimately managing to briefly hold his own alone against Vilgax himself. Landing three punches on the Warlord in quick succession and just barely managing to stop a blow from Vilgax, although he was quickly beaten, as well as later on holding off Vilgax long enough for Yaroslava and Alex to prepare a coordinated attack. Aiden also managed to defeat hordes of Droids during the Battle of Coruscant, best and kill many Outriders during the Battle of Endor, and numerous Chitauri, Sakaarans, and Outriders during the Battle of Tatooine. Furthermore, he ultimately defeated his older son, Delsin by outwitting him in combat and using pressure points to subdue him. As a former United States Army Veteran with years of experience, Aiden is an extremely skilled, formidable, fierce, and lethal martial artist and hand-to-hand combatant, making him one of the most dangerous and best fighters on the planet. He was able to go toe-to-toe against the enormously skilled Yaroslava, even briefly gaining the upper hand against her in their first encounter. He impressed Yaroslava with his speed and ferocity, despite the latter ultimately being able to get the upper hand in the fight, with the use of her agility. Hence, Aiden, while unarmed, survived being ambushed by multiple armed prison inmates at once, swiftly taking them all down in a brutal bloodthirsty fashion, greatly impressing the Prison Warden, who claimed that Aiden has a "unique talent." Aiden also quickly overpowered Rawlins, held his own against Wolf, and defeated Russo after a prolonged fight. James stated Rawlins looked like he was "hit by a train" after he was overpowered and killed by Aiden, and Stein drafted an extensive medical examination after Aiden killed Wolf. Olin later commended his fighting skills after seeing him fight in Plumber's training. He was able to brutally beat down all the Soviet's using their gym equipment and switch target every time to hit both of them. Aiden could also take down several armed guards in the elevator that armed with firearms and batons and defeat Pilgrim while being extremely exhausted after multiple injuries he suffered from. Aiden possesses a high pain tolerance that allows him to continue fighting even after being beaten by crowbars, dumbbells, punched with a chain-wrapped fist, and even being shot. During his attempted attack on Russo, Aiden was able to kill several of Russo's henchmen even after they beat him ruthlessly with crowbars. In fact, being beat only seemed to enrage him more. Aiden was a deadly and experienced hand to hand fighter. He personally trained his sons, Delsin and Alex Macgrath, to fight. He was easily able to defeat and overpower Aggregor and would've killed her if he wanted to. He fought and almost killed Dick Grayson as Robin during their first fight. He was able to easily defeat Jason Todd, a skilled fighter in his own right.[1] He was able to fight Khyber and Tetrax at the same time, two highly skilled combatants in their own regard. During his third fight with Khyber, his opponent had improved his skills and even managed to push him back, but Aiden eventually gained upper hand. When Tetrax joined Khyber, Aiden was able to fight both of them at the same time. However, Khyber distracted him, which led to him getting stunned by Tetrax and then ultimately got stabbed by Khyber. Aiden is also heavily skilled in melee and unarmed combat, able to overpower and kill several armed men after crashing into their car. He can take on very skilled opponents such as Khyber and Franky. He can also improvise weapons in battle, as he used a simple brick against Vito's henchmen. 
Body Language Analysis: Aiden can intuitively read others' body language, allowing him to anticipate their actions and respond accordingly, often allowing him to predict opponent's attacks. 
Aim Dodging: Aiden can avoid linear attacks such as bullets and lasers by simply quickly positioning himself away from the path of the attack before it is fired. This can allow him to avoid attacks that travel much faster than he does. 
Attack Prediction: Aiden can interpret and predict enemy attacks and react to the incoming attack, brush off or avoid the incoming attacks even from dead angle. 
Photographic Deduction: Aiden has amazing deductive and information processing ability of anything he has seen. 
Combat Perception: Aiden can instantly understand an opponent's method of thinking and fighting and anticipating their moves. Once he understands his enemies strategy, he is able to find their flaws and weakness and take them down with little effort. While some of his methods do not use it as part of his primary fighting style, it is helpful in emergencies against difficult opponents where ordinary methods will not work against them.
Shield Mastery: Aiden is extremely skilled at using his unique shield in combat, with years of training and experience in wielding it, as well as completely mastered its physical properties, allowing him to accomplish amazing feats with the item. Aiden is able to throw it with perfect aim, managing to slice Spider-Monkey's webbing with it mid-air. Aiden can hit multiple targets with the same throw by means of ricochet, and could even achieve a boomerang-like return effect, allowing him to strike enemies from behind or retrieve the shield without objects to ricochet from. Additionally, Aiden can perform combination techniques with his allies, such as allowing Feedback to strike his shield to create a directed shockwave at HYDRA soldiers, jumping and catching his shield thrown by his wife and throwing it at a Battle Droid before landing on the ground, and allowing Feedback to strike his shield's edge with electricity to send it through multiple Sentries. He is also extremely skilled in using it in close combat to bash aside foes and block incoming attacks, even from extremely skilled weapon masters such as Yaroslava with her batons and even Vilgax using his sword. Beside his own Plumber shield, Aiden skill also applies to other different shields, as he was able to wield the Energy shields given to him for the Battle of Naboo very expertly as blunt weapons, killing many Outriders and managing to combat and even disarm Glaive as well as even land a few hits on Vilgax. Aiden can use his signature shield in conjunction with other weapons like his sword with equal, if not even greater effect. Aiden was even able to wield his shield effectively after it was broken by Vilgax. Aiden is well skilled in wielding his near-indestructible shield. While it can be a source of defense, Aiden also incorporates his shield as a blunt weapon to bash opponents with. Such is the strength and skill with which he wields it, that Aiden can cripple even highly durable Aliens with his shield, having used it to shatter Chew's skull. Even Vilgax, the most powerful beings in the universe, was shown to be stunned briefly when he was struck with the shield and Aiden's strength.
Knife Mastery: Aiden is highly skilled at using knives in combat. He often prefers to incorporate knife slashes into his combat style, making him all the more lethal. He has also showcased skills in knife-throwing, such as when Black water operators ambushed his home. Aiden is also very skilled at disarming and countering knives, managing to take away Russo's knife, as well as deflecting and taking other mercenaries' knives before stabbing them with it. Aiden is extremely skilled at using a knife in combat, with an emphasis in Kali knife fighting. He usually resorts to his combat knife in close quarters combat, as seen during his duel with Yaroslava on the streets of North Vietnam He usually holds the knife in his natural hand and uses his arm for support should he need more force to overpower an opponent, using a downward stab or tossing it between hands to advance his assault, making use of swift and skillful jabs, stabs, and slashes at the enemy's vital points. During his hotel assassination mission, he easily killed enemies with a single knife move and has also shown to be highly skilled at knife throwing, easily hitting his targets with excellent accuracy. Aiden was able to use a knife effectively against Yaroslava, nearly scoring hits on him during their first fight and impaling her in their second fight. Aiden also used a bayonet knife with a great effect against the Outriders, he was able to kill an Outrider without many difficulties, quickly delivering several lethal stabs and slashes to its neck and vital points. He also easily managed to overwhelm and get a knifepoint on a knife-wielding droid upon having pummeled them. Aiden was deadly at using a knife in combat, preferring to hold it in a reverse grip and can switch hands to hold it even during a fight. This is seen during his fight with Khyber, where he severely wounded her and could have killed her if he hadn't chosen to spare her. He was even skilled a knife-throwing as seen during his third fight with Sixsix, where he threw his combat knife at him, though the latter managed to dodge it. Aiden is highly skilled at using a knife in combat. This is seen during his training session with Delsin. He was also able to throw a knife into a guard's back, killing him instantly. Aiden is highly skilled with using knives in combat, whether it be up close or thrown. He accurately threw a knife into a photo of Stalin. He was also shown to be able to throw a knife into a gunman's eye from several feet while running. He later threw a cream cheese spreader into Sergei's forehead.
Master Swordsman: Aiden was an experienced and lethal swordsman. His sword fighting style seems to be a mix of Kenjutsu, Wushu, Kali, and Fencing. He trained his own son, Delsin in the way of the blade. He was able to slaughter multiple security guards when he broke Phil out of prison. He was able to fight a Hydra spy who used a metal bar as an improvised bo-staff, even managing to wound and disarm him. He was able to fight a Soldier who used her combat knife to fight back, but he was eventually disarmed. He was able to fight Khyber, using his sword's split function to fight with dual blades, though he was disarmed of one and yet was able to overpower him. Aiden is a highly skilled swordsman, as he was able to cut down multiple armed mercenaries in mere seconds. He has explicitly stated his weapon of choice are swords. He killed his former partner, Billy, in a sword-fight, who was also a master swordsman. While amplified by the Super Soldier Serum, Aiden was able to kill three of Bucky's bodyguards in a matter of seconds. It has been seen that the weeks he spent imprisoned in the Null Void without properly practicing his sword-fighting skills has not reduced their efficiency, as Aiden was able to swiftly cut down multiple students of Khyber on multiple encounters when helping Team Delta against Adrian and Khyber's forces, who had training similar to the Rooters and later did the same to nearly 20 members of the Jackals and also fought on par with Joe in their sword fight and managed to gain the upper hand while holding back, only being overpowered by his son through trickery. Besides his prowess at close range, he was also shown to be able to kill a guard by drawing his sword and throw it in one single motion. Aiden's signature weapons are his dual katana blades, which, combined with his speed, agility and natural combat abilities, make two of his most highly efficient weapons. His swords allow him to cut through several trained shooters with ease. He is also adept at throwing his swords; he threw one into the front wheel of Joe's motorcycle to make him crash, and he also threw one to knock down Mikey by hitting him in the head with the handle. 
Master stick-fighter: Aiden is a highly proficient stick-fighter, as he was seen sparring with Delsin in stick fighting, teaching him everything he knows about this form of combat. When he fought Delsin in the training room when they both used sticks, Aiden was able to easily match and disarm Delsin, although he was empowered by the the Super Soldier Serum.
Staff Mastery: Aiden is somewhat skilled in fighting with sticks, as seen when he used his wife's own Batons against her in their second duel. He also used a wooden stick during his fight in Ryker's Island and used a police officer's baton against him and his allies in a hotel elevator. Aiden could use a bat to beat Franklin to death. He was experienced with using a bō staff in combat. This is seen during his first fight with Sixsix, a highly trained bō staff wielder in his own right. Where he managed to use his own bo staff to easily counter and swat away his attacks, allowing him to gain the upper hand and overpower him. This proved that Aiden was far more skilled and experienced with the weapon than Sixsix was. 
Hammer Mastery: Aiden is highly skilled at using a hammer in combat. During the Battle of Coruscant, he has displayed outstanding skill with a hammer being able to briefly overtake Vilgax, landing several vicious blows, and easily take down many Outriders with it. He was also able to throw it with extreme precision, accurately hit a shield after having previously thrown it to the air to generate a shockwave to stun Vilgax.
Master Marksman: Aiden is an skilled marksman, being able to throw projectile weaponry with extreme accuracy and is well-versed in the use of firearms like the military-issued Colt 1911 or the M4 during the Vietnam War and eventually modern firearms, picking up a Noveske N4 Diplomat and using it with ease. While he knew how to use the modern assault rifle, he was not used to it and missed his targets each time he fire. He even slipped from the platform he stood on when he caught in a hail of gunfire from the men that he was fighting on the Helicarrier, but managed to grab a wire to stay on the ship. Moreover, Aiden is extremely skilled in shield throwing, being able to throw a shield with unerring accuracy. Aiden also shows expertise in knife throwing, as seen during the Battle of Vilgaxia, the Attack on the Helicarrier, and the Hijacking and Retaking of the Lemurian Star, being able to accurately hit his targets. During Plumber training, Aiden accurately threw a miniaturized a sonic grenade. Aiden graduated from Army Base in Quantico of class 307. A former scout sniper and special forces, Aiden is an extremely skilled and accurate marksman, with tremendous expertise and experience in handling many firearms, including pistols, revolvers, automatic rifles, shotguns, submachine guns, sniper rifles, machine guns, and grenade launchers. Due to his military training, Aiden is a deadly shot, adhering to his unit's philosophy of "one shot, one kill," managing to shoot anyone who got in his way in the head. With his devastating use in firearms, he made many criminals and allies believe his attacks were the work of a group or "army." Hence, Aiden rarely misses his target, and easily avoids injuring innocent civilians, thus managing to swiftly take down the last Separatist without wounding his comrade, all from an immense distance away. Aiden later sniped a traitor in the head with an immensely long range from across the city. Aiden can also shoot his enemies in nonlethal spots to prolong their suffering or to interrogate them before they die, as he did with Olin by intentionally missing her bone by shooting through and through the meat in her thigh, leading Phil to refer to him as "one hell of a shot," meaning phenomenal. During the recuse mission, he shot a Molotov cocktail before an assassin could throw it, dousing him in flames. Outside his home, Aiden quickly gunned down six bounty hunters before five of them could pull their weapons on him. Aiden can also hit his targets without actually seeing them, demonstrated when he fired his rifle from one flight of stairs above him to kill two hitmen. Jack described Aiden as an "artist with the AK," and Tower later said that Aiden "shot the city to hell." He is an extremely skilled marksman, being able to handle firearms with remarkable precision, even prior to becoming a Plumber. During the Vietnam war he shot a operative that even his commander did not see until he was down. His marksmanship was deemed invaluable to the Special Forces destruction of HYDRA's bases and the thwarting of Communist troops. As a Plumber Commando and Rooter, he became an even deadlier master marksman. He accurately fired a single round through a Kree's stomach and into a nuclear scientist that she was protecting, killing him. He is also capable of making long-range shots without the use of a rifle, for example, shooting Haung multiple times through the wall of his apartment and from the top of another building. Aiden has also proven to be highly skilled with pistols as well, being able to accurately fire at Tony while fighting him in close combat, even managing to land a single shot on Tony and thus push him into defensive, and later even manage to land two shots on Rogers with one bullet went through his stomach when he was stopping Project Insight from initiate. Aiden has caught and handled a Shield on two occasions and showed impressive ability in doing so. He was also able to use his gun to swiftly take out many Outriders during the Battle of Coruscant. He even attempted to shoot Vilgax to prevent him from extracting the Omnitrix out of Alex, only to be subdued by Vilgax, who blasted him into the bushes with his heat vision. Aiden later on easily shot multiple mercenaries hired by the Broker with a pistol. Aiden was an exceptional sniper as he was able to assassinate multiple people from afar, using one shot each time; he once shot a enemy soldier through the back of the head and exiting out his eye. He was also able to kill Tommy with one shot. He headshot Arthur from a distance while the latter was in a truck. He even incorporates his marksmanship skills in hand to hand combat, best demonstrated against enemy spies. Aiden is an almost superhumanly skilled marksman and experienced with all manner of firearms, being considered the world's deadliest marksman due to records stating he has never missed a target with the exception of Yaroslava; he is considered an expert in the use of all firearms, including 9mm pistols, Gatling guns, revolvers, flare guns, potato cannons, machine guns, assault rifles, flamethrowers, sniper rifles, anti-tank rifles, shotguns, M1 carbines, bazookas, derringers, Uzis, grenade launchers, .44 Magnums, and muskets. Aiden is said to be lethal at four kilometers (2.49 miles). His marksmanship surpasses the Marksman Droids due to his proficiency in marksmanship. He was able to easily shoot the same target numerous times in rapid succession with multiple different guns (greatly impressing Nick Fury), and to single-handedly take down numerous troops of Vilgax, keeping the bulk of the army from advancing at the Rooter's Squad (in fact doing it better single-handedly than the combined efforts of Phil's entire gunmen squad, using only his blaster pistols, dropping a monstrous troop with every single one of his numerous shots). Aiden is thus one of the most formidable members of the Rooters or the Plumber Commandos, on par with Carl Tennyson and Devin Levin, to whom Magistratus refers to as some of the most dangerous humans in the Plumbers. Aiden is an excellent marksman, as he took out many soldiers with his sniper rifle and was able to take out several soldiers with only two handguns. He was also able to easily shoot down many members of the Hand using a single rifle before they could attempt to fire. Aiden is highly proficient with firearms, as he is able to accurately hit his targets without needing much time to aim his guns. He was able to land two headshots as he twisted through the air, shot a grenade before a man could throw it, and used one bullet to shoot three men standing in a line in the head, although the third man survived because the bullet lost its momentum. He also shot Derrick and Ray Frye in the head. Aiden is also skilled at throwing objects, displayed when he played skee-ball with Delsin; he threw a ball directly into a hole, instead of rolling it. He can accurately throw his katanas, such as when he threw one into Ray's motorcycle wheel while jumping through the air, when he threw one into Roman's air pressure coffin, and when he threw one at Carlos but made the handle hit him in the forehead. He also threw a hubcap like a frisbee at Ray's head. 
Explosives Mastery: Aiden is also adept with explosives. He entered the Royal Defence Medical Centre in London and created a sustainable amount of damage with explosives used to take out several police officers and hospital personnel. When fighting Yuri , he used a military-grade explosive to destroy the upper levels of the DSS Los Angeles headquarters. He was also able to mail a packaged bomb from Tokyo to Los Angeles that destroyed the Vladimir house.
Master Acrobat: Aiden's years of training and experience have made him an extremely skilled acrobat, gymnast, and aerialist, being able to fluidly dodge attacks from multiple directions using coordinated flips, twists, and sharp turns without losing balance. He often utilizes these talents in combat for both evasive and offensive purposes. Combined with his enhanced agility, Aiden has expertise in utilizing parkour and tricking flips in his attacks and takedowns. His enhanced reflexes and agility make him highly evasive and mobile in battle. Able to scale seemingly any terrain with no wasted timing or movement, his prowess outmatches some of the most accomplished circus aerialists and acrobats. Using a variety of free-running and parkour maneuvers, he is challenging to anticipate with his erratic and spontaneous movement.
Master Assassin: Aiden is an extremely skilled assassin. His Military service enables him to locate his enemies and eliminate them with military precision. According to Blake and Reyes, survivors of his brutal kill methods are certain to be found and killed by him, even if they're under assumed names. His aptitude for killing has left many astonished, including Max, Phil and Azmuth, and he is so effective he was initially mistaken to be a group of trained killers rather than a single person. He has eliminated high-profile targets with the Squad and trained to use weapons with superb efficiency. He is surgical and precise, using all of his skills with firearms, stealth and hand-to-hand combat to kill his opponents, seen when he singlehandedly and systematically killed multiple Skrulls and Kree. Aiden was able to snap a neck of prisoner and Wolf, and quickly draw his guns to fire at his enemies. Aiden is also able to see deadly potential in objects in order to weaponize his environment against his opponents, such as when he bashed a Kree's head in with a rock, bludgeoned Jose with a metal baseball bat, killed Dudley and his bodyguard with a shiv, impaled a prisoner with a sharpened wooden stick, broke a pot of coffee over a man's head, ran over Assassins with a van, strangled Mickey with his own necktie, beat Paulie, Leo and Vito with a sledgehammer, hit Wolf in the head with a toaster and photo frame, slammed Nick's head through a bathroom sink, used dumbbells to defeat various henchmen, used weights to overpower and kill the Russian, and improvised scrap metal against Pilgrim in a junkyard. Max accurately stated that Aiden was turned into a hitman, and Madani sought to recruit him directly to assist in the apprehension of a high-value target, disregarding all other agents of the CIA in favor of his skills, declaring him to be "the best" in his line of work. Aiden is an extremely skilled assassin. Ever since he's worked with Delta Force and the Rooters, Aiden has lived in complete anonymity with most of the intelligence community not even believing he exists. He's been credited with over two dozen of the Rooter's most crucial assassinations in the last 20 to 30 years. He was even able to shoot Johnny himself while outside of his' apartment, and shoot through a Vietcong to take out his target. Aiden, even before the Super Soldier Serum, is an infamous but extremely skilled mercenary. He has killed people in Germany, Korea, and Vietnam. Each contract he was given, he has successfully killed his targets. When he was in the Special Forces, he had 41 confirmed kills. Following his transformation and during his search for Domoic. until he reunited with the recruiter, he killed 48 more people and continued to slay his enemies. Aiden was renowned as an extremely efficient contract killer who is able to quickly and easily pull off assignments others wouldn't be able to and do so without any trace of his crimes leading back to him or his employers. Aiden is an extremely skilled assassin, has become an infamous gun for hire ever since leaving the US Special Forces, assassinating his targets in mere seconds after a price that satisfies Aiden is offered. Indeed, before his imprisonment by the Soviet's, Aiden was the most wanted hitman in the world, with him, therefore, having elite clientele. 
Expert Tracker: Aiden is shown to be very efficient in information gathering due to his career as a seasoned mercenary. Hence, he easily found Ryan and warned him to stay away from Laura. For two years, he was able to track down Don's location through a network of sources. Max has said that Aiden is the world's best tracker, and he himself stated to his daughter that he catches everybody he hunts. In Rio de Janeiro, Elena was confident that he would find Toretto; Hobbs tracked Toretto to his crew's warehouse, and he later tracked him to the Canary Islands to recruit him. In London, he found paint in Cletus previous hideout, which Yaroslava discovered was highly specialized (anti-thermal low IR coating, military), which allowed him to track his team to a NATO base in Spain by cross-referencing a list of European bases that used the paint and with all of Cletus's military targets. In Los Angeles, he followed a drone to find Tommy and Jimmy. In London, he easily located Eddie when she was framed for killing her team.
Stealth Mastery: Aiden was able to maneuver without making any sound, being able to kill a grown man without making the slightest sound to be detected. He snuck around the Forever Knight's hideout and took photos of the knights, without ever being noticed and he is also skilled at making sure no trace of his whereabouts is left behind. As a former member of Delta Force and the Rooters, Aiden is well versed in stealth and infiltration. Aiden was able to steal a file from the U.S.S.R. archives without being seen on the security cameras. Aiden was able to stalk Yaroslava without getting noticed. Aiden was able to enter Rooters hideout and then enter the Null Void, without being seen, noticed or making any alarms go off. On Yu he was able to sneak up on Delsin and Alex multiple times before they had a chance to react, and later against some acolytes.
Expert Spy: Aside from being a veteran soldier as well as one of the world's greatest combatants and martial artists, Aiden is highly skilled in espionage, intelligence gathering, stealth, infiltration, and sabotage, having been trained by Delta Force and the Rooters. During Vietnam, Aiden and the Special Forces successfully raided several HYDRA bases, rescued allied POWs, and captured top HYDRA scientist, Dr. Arnim Zola. After being displaced in the 21st century, despite his lack of knowledge of the current technologies, he managed to sneak around in the Helicarrier without getting caught and discovered S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Tesseract-based weaponry. When Aiden received additional training from S.H.I.E.L.D., he became a highly accomplished spy in his own right. He participated in several black-ops missions with STRIKE and helped thwart the HYDRA Uprising. Aiden, Yaroslava and Delsin easily infiltrated Fort Meade to retrieve the Ascalon, despite it being protected by three guarded gates and a foot-long steel wall. He and Yaroslava also successfully infiltrated Camp Lehigh. Aiden went in as "Captain Warren," wearing standard army attire to blend in. They came out with the Ascalon. He successfully evaded capture from authorities when he became a fugitive twice (during the HYDRA Uprising and the Blacks Ops). However, arguably Aiden's most impressive feat was breaking into an underwater highly secured prison, the Raft, and freeing his family with exceptional difficulty. 
Master of Disguise: Aiden is a master of disguise, with his ability to seamlessly pass off as other people with different body types and characteristics, even down to their voices. Aiden's skill at disguise is unmatched, with the Rooters left clueless about his actual appearance. He can also do the same for others, creating costumes for himself and wife so they can pose as Hydra agents. 
High-level intellect: Aiden is extremely intelligent and a near flawless tactician, as he is able to create extremely efficient plans for combat, infiltration, and destruction even at a great disadvantage or with few resources. He is also able to expertly incorporate his strategical prowess into his fighting style, skillfully developing specific plans of attack by using the environment or distractions to his advantage. Aiden with the help of Yaroslava quickly formulated a plan to take over an airfield crowded with troops, and later managed to destroy much of Edward's compound alone, using only improvised explosives and distraction. Later, Aiden was also shown to be well-versed in mathematics, doing various mathematical calculations to program a missile launcher to directly hit the ship Ivo and his crew were on. He was able to calculate the flight with a parachute to land on the freighter. After the island getaway, Aiden, in his personal vendetta against Vilgax, was capable of tactically outsmarting the also highly skilled tactician Vilgax for the majority of their conflict until he was eventually outsmarted and trapped by Vilgax presenting Felicity as the woman he loved, allowing Vilgax to defeat him, but nevertheless making him one of the very few to ever outsmart the warlord himself. He devised an extremely complex plan that could keep his enemies, like Vilgaxia and Vilgax overwhelmed, as well as to infiltrate the government of Vilgaxia, taking Vilgax Consolidated away from Vilgax, and by the end create an army of resistance fighters that can generate chaos and destruction throughout the city. Aiden is also a very capable leader, as he was able to lead an organization known as the Plumbers with even greater influence than his predecessor, allowing him to easily inspire his soldiers into obeying his orders and could lead the army so efficiently that he overwhelmed the efforts of Vilgaxia until they received aid from allies from other planets. Aiden's greatest weapon is his intelligence, which would be considered a genius by most definitions. He has a borderline photographic memory, being able to remember the individual names of over 200 names simply by skimming over a list of their names and dietary habits, as well as remember Yaroslava from a list of several potential assassination candidates. He has also memorized the Ostanian Intelligence manual, allowing him to see through Briar's cover story. He has once claimed to have read every book in a library. He repeatedly displays ingenuity in combat, using flour as a smokescreen while fighting against a gang and identifying a fake ID with no trouble. Even as a child, he showed a level of ingenuity in the war games he played with his friends, putting together a bucket trap and a rubber band gun to quickly turn around a situation where his side was losing. He has also received basic Plumber training, having succeeded in the Plumbers' Academy with a 100 out of a 100, having the highest scores in the history of the Plumber's Exam written test. 
Eidetic memory: Aiden has a perfect memory, as he remembered the exact details of Suki's dragon tattoo, as Aiden had one of the Amazo's crew brand it on Manny's back, as a way to always remind Manny that he was partly responsible for Suki's death. He also remembered the exact circumstances of his meeting with Manny, as well as his first words to him, “Twitch and I will open your throat.” Which he reminded Manny of 7 years later. 
Master Tactician: Aiden is an excellent strategist and tactical genius. He can formulate battle strategies and his brilliant tactical sense allows him to alter near any strategy to fit the changing needs of the situation. A prime example is when he formulated the plan to go in first by himself in "the front door" of Trevor's hidden base. After taking out Trevor's defenses and feigning a surrender, the assault team and then the full force of the army came in and raided the base following Aiden's initial assault. His tactical brilliance also came into play during the Chitauri assault on Coruscant, first in organizing first responders to protect the civilian population, and then re-deploying other members of the Plumbers to best defend the city with their limited resources. Aiden frequently proved himself a quick study in battlefield situations being able to quickly ascertain details from minor actions. His bravery and determination further supplement this as he is willing to take even the riskiest of choices to stand a chance to win, a trait best exemplified when he was quickly able to deduce the HYDRA personnel in an elevator where they attacked him. He again demonstrated this skill when Vilgax arrived on Macgrath Manor, quickly realizing that his gauntlet had to be clenched for access to its powers and bravely charging the Warlord to hold his hand open. During Vietnam and the Chitauri Invasion, Aiden has demonstrated impressive charisma and leadership skills. He was able to command respect from his fellow Plumbers and the undying loyalty of his Plumbers Commandos. Aiden extraordinary ability to not only inspire the nobility in others but also assess combat situations and come up with effective strategies made his fellow Plumbers recognize him as the leader of their team. During the Chitauri attack on Coruscant, Aiden focused on directing civilian authorities to keep the citizens safe and off the streets while the rest of the Plumbers focused their efforts on taking out the Chitauri's military assets. Even when outnumbered by the forces of HYDRA within S.H.I.E.L.D., Aiden was able to Yaroslava, Delsin, and even Alex, along with the loyal agents within S.H.I.E.L.D. to fight back against HYDRA and stop Project Insight from being achieved. As a result, Aiden dealt HYDRA their first devastating blow in decades, since he fought against them in Vietnam. Aiden is a highly skilled, effective and experienced military tactician, since notably, during the seemingly hopeless extraction of his unit, Aiden assumed command, and single-handedly cleared a helicopter landing zone of enemy combatants (that prevented his unit's escape), while the rest of his men, even Schoonover, hunkered down. Aiden even anticipated this conflict as a trap, despite Schoonover requesting his tactical input and Russo supporting his strategic instincts only to have Rawlins negate it. He later received the Purple Heart for his efforts. As a Plumber, Aiden later used these tactics to single-handedly track and kill entire Platoons of soldiers with high efficiency, to the point that Aiden was initially mistaken by a demon and the police for an entire squad of gunmen, rather than a single man. Aiden has received training in military tactics and leadership, and has spent decades as a soldier and covert operative, using quick thinking and resourcefulness to execute his assignments, which has proven to be an accomplished strategist and leader, earning the title of Sergeant. He was able to command an entire unit during Vietnam. As Plumber, his strategical aptitude was only enhanced even further with training to be the Rooter's most covert operative, having been able to successfully come up with flawless plans that allowed him to both execute his victims while leaving no traces behind. Aiden was a masterful planner. He created a plan to breakdown Hydra and take them out one by one, even setting a trap for a informant in order to capture her. He used the informant's tracker to lead the team to the abandoned hideout with Javier's body, in order to lure the team to where he held the informant, in exchange for Delsin. He lured Khyber to the church in order to get him away from his spaceship so he could plant items and symbols in each of the rooms to drive them apart. Aiden was also an expert manipulator who is skilled at getting others to do his bidding. He was able to convince Marcus to join his side and infiltrate Forever Knight's and later able to turn the team against one another by manipulating their past trauma. Aiden is skilled at hiding from authorities and removing all traces of his whereabouts as well as making sure he leaves no trace of evidence at his crime scenes. Despite coming from a very wealthy family, Aiden was capable of living off the grid in a cabin in the woods with no electricity and minimal contact with the outside world, showing he can survive in such a setting. Aiden is an expert strategist, as he thinks through every contingency (which he credits as to why he is the best Plumber) and plans out everything to the last detail. Aiden, as a former member of both the Plumber Commandos and the Rooters, carefully prepares for his assassinations. 
Expert Vehicular driver: He is proficient in driving cars, motorcycles, trucks, jets, tankers, helicopters, and motorboats. Aiden is a highly skilled driver and extremely proficient at driving a variety of vehicles. He is skilled in cornering and drifting. He also managed to perfectly time crashing his car into Omar's to cause his death. In the Caucasus Mountains near Azerbaijan, he pursued and attacked Sam with a Fast Attack Vehicle and attempted to push his car off a cliff by ramming him repeatedly until Jacob arrived and helped Sam knock Aiden's vehicle down a hill. 
Pilot: Aiden has at least basic knowledge of aircraft piloting. In the 1960s, he crash-landed a plane on the Arctic. After returning, he has the capability to fly a Quinjet. He also effortlessly flew a helicopter in Berlin.
Multilingualism: Aiden is fluent in his native English, as well as French, Romanian, Russian, and Xhosa, albeit in an American accent. He is also able to understand German and Japanese, which he used to communicate with his wife. He is able to speak Arabic, Greek, Latin, Spanish, Italian, Mandarin, Urdu, multiple Indian languages and possibly more. As a Plumber, he is capable of speaking various Alien languages. 
Master Interrogator: Aiden enrolled in his SERE course, and is thus well-versed in interrogation tactics, such as employing intimidation techniques to extract information from suspects. Aiden was able to successfully perform a reverse interrogation on a Hydra agent which allowed him to learn the truth about his daughter's murder. Aiden was also able to extract information from Nelson, a fellow war veteran who took the SERE course, through torture. Aiden is very imposing and makes everyone around him feel frightened. Right after being released by the warden, everyone, including the warden himself, couldn't move from their places, with him sweating and losing his temper while remembering when his friends was murdered by him. Even Aiden feared Aiden and continued to remain wary of him after their first battle.
Expert Intimidator: When Aggregor discovered Claire's identity as the daughter of Aiden, he expressed fear, despite his confidence as a fighter. The Forever Knights were also easily intimidated by the return of Aiden, despite having faced Ah Puch, Maya god of death and protector of the Sword of Ek Chuaj. Bill was frightened when Aiden didn't laugh at his jokes while when Philip faced against Aiden, he was easily frightened. 
Master of deception/Manipulator: Aiden is a very good liar, able to feign betraying Yaroslava twice by pretending to side with Maxwell when he is actually helping Yaroslava and his team get out of a bad situation. Much like Maxwell, Aiden was able to stay many steps ahead of John in his vendetta, and was able to predict and use John actions against Aiden against him. Aiden was able to use deception to be released from police custody after kidnapping Maria in order to get Lance arrested and to prove to John that he was always able to stay ahead of him.
Skilled Leader: Aiden is respected by his Plumber teammates, as noted by Max Tennyson himself, and has a degree of influence over them. Hence, Aiden managed to befriend and calm down Groot on several occasions, his idea of a mutiny against Phil and Max was picked up by most of the team, and Phil personally requested that Aiden help him keep the team in line. 
Master Physician: Aiden was able to perform complex surgery on Phil to remove a bullet from Phil's chest. The fact that Aiden performed the surgery from his own home, on his dining room table, without hospital resources is a testament to his skill as a surgeon. 
Expert Businessman: Aiden Macgrath is extremely well-respected in the business world, able to command people's attentions when he speaks on economic matters by virtue of the fact that he is savvy enough to have, over the years, built up several multimillion dollar companies from virtually nothing. He is known for the loyalty he commands from and returns to those who work for him, as well as his impeccable business ethics. He has various government contracts stemming from his companies creation of weapons, which have helped defend the US. 
Weapons and Equipment:
Combat mask: Aiden possesses a black and grey ballistic face mask. The version worn on the island is a solid mask with a fabric balaclava. The version in the present day appears to be a metal helmet, with the right side for his Monoscope. The back of the helmet features a strip of bandana, giving the illusion that the mask is tied on. Aiden wears this mask to protect himself and hide his identity. It was later upgraded with Alien Technology thanks to the Plumbers. This mask utilizes a wide array of capabilities. Aiden's expanding mask is activate by an earpiece behind his right ear. It offers a suite of life-support functions that allow him to breath in alien atmosphere, provides ballistic protection and boasts a heads-up display synced into his scanners, weapons and flight systems. The helmet can be shrunk down into an earpiece that is on the back of his right ear, materializing into pixelated blue light. The mask protects from toxic atmosphere. The mask provides oxygen for him in the vacuum of space. The mask protects his face from sudden changes in air pressure. His HUD threat detection system improves his reflex time. It also allows for thermal and ultraviolet vision. It recorded video and played it back on his command, dispensed water, compensated automatically for low or high light conditions, picked up on minute sounds and amplified them and could connect with the onboard computer of his Spaceship, assuming the transmission wasn't blocked (by being underground inside the Sarlacc, for example). The Mask at one point also had the capability of sealing to compensate for pressure changes, and holding 5 to 10 minutes of air, though damage may have disabled this feature at some point. The helmet also contained a retractable straw, allowing Aiden to drink without removing his helmet. could control weapons, sensors, and his jet pack with verbal commands. His helmet's HUD (heads-up-display) featured information on the surrounding environment as well as a 360-degree field of vision. The HUD's data streams could be controlled by eye movements and blinking. In addition, an advanced penetrating radar allowed his HUD to provide information on nearby rooms, and could be used to scan the HoloNet and connect with databases, allowing him to perform tasks which would normally require a computer terminal, such as searching databases for individuals or even trading on the stock market and buying real estate, from anywhere that was accessible through the HoloNet. The macrobinocular viewplate could be magnified to allow Aiden to see great distances, and was equipped with, among other things, an infrared scanner that could be magnified up to 50 times. The infrared scanner magnified light up to 100 times or displayed heat gradations. The mask's broad band antenna was capable of intercepting and unscrambling comlink and starship comm transmissions. It was also capable of, with assistance from his ship's computer, jamming transmissions or sending fake transmissions, even while not in his ship. At the top of the antenna was a rangefinder capable of tracking up to 30 targets from a distance of 100 meters. The rangefinder fed data to a display overlay inside the helmet showing range and movement for targets in a 360 degree radius. The overlay also linked to Aiden's weapons systems to display fire vector and range data. The rangefinder could be deployed horizontally or vertically. The environmental filter system could filter out poisons and contaminants as well as provide Aiden with a two-hour reserve air tank. 
Combat Suit: Aiden wore armor when operating as a Blacks Ops operative, Assassin, Mercenary and later a Plumber. It protected him from high impact blunt force trauma and even thermal blasts. It is a tactical suit of body armor custom tailored to his needs. It is predominantly black, but also adds grey protective plates and composite fiberglass, which overlap the feet, shins, forearms, chest and shoulders. The costume also has grey details on all of the joints. The suit appears to be bulletproof based on the bullet dents on the armor. However, the suit is vulnerable to electric shocks as seen when he was shocked by Yaroslava's electrified batons. It also didn't impede his speed or agility and allowed him to carry numerous weapons and ammunition which he could draw easily. There are various equipment pockets on the costume, and there are three smoke grenades and ammunition strapped on to the chest. In addition, the suit could house all of Aiden's primary weapons; there is a sheath on the back for his katana sword, a holster on his right thigh for his pistol, another sheath on his left leg for his tactical knife, and a pocket on the back of his belt for his throwing daggers. It was later upgraded with Alien Technology thanks to the Plumbers. Aiden's armor was originally constructed from duraplast and Beskar, allowing it to sustain a great deal of damage without degrading. On his left duraplast blast plate a digital life support system readout was visible. His armor also had two shoulder pads which were black, like his kneepads. The left shoulder pad exhibited the Plumber logo, while his right chest plate displayed the Special Forces logo. Aiden wore a power armor liner. This liner shirt had a micro energy field projector and two layers of thin ceramic plates, in order to disperse physical and blast impacts, reducing injuries and likelihood of knockdowns. The power liner also gave him increased protection from fire, acid, intense heat, and cold. His main clothing was a reinforced armor mesh battle/flight suit. The inner lining of the suit blocked poisons and corrosives for a period of time. This suit had pockets on his hips and thighs (one on each side). Aiden wore a leather utility belt that usually had ten leather pouches (but sometimes less). The battle/flight suit had pockets on his shins which contained an anti-security blade, a survival knife, a jet-pack adjustment tool, and a sonic-beam weapon. Aiden wore spats around his ankles to help prevent debris from going into his boots. They were smaller than standard spats, were made of a light colored cloth and attached behind the ankle as opposed to under the boot. Aiden wore a pair of versatile boots that had two spikes attached to the front of each. Aiden's wrist gauntlets were a mounting point for many of his weapons. His left gauntlet had a Czerka ZX miniature flame projector, which creates a cone of fire five meters long and one meter in diameter. It had a corded fuel line connecting to a backpack canister holding fuel for three minutes of operation. Directly below this was the Dur-24 wrist laser. Comparable to a blaster rifle in power, these wrist lasers had a range of 50 meters. Originally exposed, a protective shield was later added to the left gauntlet enclosing and concealing both weapons. Aiden's left gauntlet also had a Kelvarek Consolidated Arms MM9 mini concussion rocket, which utilized computer target tracking. Aiden used Type-12A anti-personnel rockets, Type-12B stun rockets, and 1126 rockets. Aiden also had knee pads with rocket dart launchers. These small launchers used Malkite themfar or Fex-M3, molecular acid, stun agents, or explosive tips. 
Monoscope: One of Aiden's signature trademarks is the high-tech eye-patch that he wears over his face mask, on his dominant left eye. This eye-patch augments his already amazing marksman skills, and when combined with his sniper rifle's scope, makes it almost impossible for him to miss his target. It also provides him with mission data and target data. 
Translator Implant: Aiden has a translator implanted in his neck that helps him understand many of the languages of almost every known species in the universe. 
Rocket/jetpack: Aiden wore a Mitrinomon Z-6 jetpack. The fuel tank held enough fuel for three 20-second blasts, 20 three-second blasts or one minute of continuous operation. Each three second blast moved Aiden up to 100 meters horizontally or 7 meters vertically. Aiden could reach a top speed of 145 kilometers per hour with a maximum range of two kilometers. Directional thrusters featured gyro-stabilizers to apply counter-thrust for maneuvering and landing. The top of the jet pack had a turbo-projected magnetic grappling hook with 20-meter lanyard (replaceable with 100 meters). A winch inside the launcher could lift up to 100 kilograms. The grappling hook unit was replaceable with an anti-vehicle homing missile. 
Aiden's wrist magnums: Aiden wears gauntlets on his wrists which contain powerful machine guns. Aiden can change the firing operation from a single shot, semi-automatic, or even fully automatic, depending on the situation he requires. The gauntlets are strong enough to deflect a Ninja's sword strikes and still be operational. To increase their efficiency, he incorporates boxing techniques; so he "punches" where he needs to aim at great speed. 
Plumber's Shield: Aiden primary weapon is his retractable concave disk shield. The shield is about 2.5 feet in diameter, weighing 12 pounds painted in its familiar black and grey pattern with a Plumber badge design in its center, constructed by the greatest Plumber scientist and made from an unknown metal alloy. The metal alloy composition allows the shield to absorb and reflect kinetic energy from impacts, therefore, making it nigh-indestructible. Nearly every kind of human weaponry cannot even dent it, as bullets normally bounce off it. The shield is also strong enough to combat magic and mystical weapons, such as Beta Ray Bill's hammer Stormbreaker. It also withstood various blaster rounds, deflecting them in a coordinated team attack. The shield's shape makes it a superb throwing weapon. It can cut through the air with minimal wind resistance. It is also able to bounce off solid objects, such as walls and floors, when struck on its edge and can be ricocheted off of multiple surfaces. It also makes a formidable and devastating hand-held weapon. Combined with Aiden's strength and combat skills, it enables him to plow through virtually any opponent. The metal alloy in the shield also enables Aiden to withstand great falls and devastating blows that he couldn't otherwise. However, its durability was finally put to the limit when fighting a resurrected Vilgax; after repeated strikes from the Warlord's double-blade, combined with Vilgax's immense strength, eventually broke it in half. 
Ascalon: Alongside his Plumber Shield, his most well known offensive weapon was Ascalon, given to him as a Gift from Azmuth. Ascalon taps into the forces of the universe itself, but it’s never specified whether it’s the source of its power or not. Misuse of that power can destroy an entire planet. When used, Ascalon encases Aiden in a suit of armor similar to that worn by a knight. This armor protects him from mind control. It can accomplish a variety of feats: Ascalon is incredibly durable, being able to survive an exploding planet. Ascalon's blade is powerful enough to cut through metal and block or reflect energy blasts. Projecting energy blasts. Channeling its power through its armor to project shockwaves. Opening portals for transport. When he spins it, Ascalon can create whirlwinds that are strong enough to send a giant flying. The sword is linked to the one who wields it, allowing them to manipulate and control the sword even when they aren't holding it. Erecting force fields. Absorbing the powers of its opponents. 
Quad Blasters: Aiden carries dual direct energy weapons in the form of handguns. They each have two triggers for the index and middle finger for the top and bottom barrel respectively, with the bottom barrel shooting lightning and the top barrel shooting fiery bolts or blasts. While the fire-like blast on the top barrel is lethal, killing its live targets on impact and even sends the target flying backwards with great force, the bottom barrel produces streaks of nonlethal electricity to electrocute its targets and incapacitate them. He has used his two blasters as melee weapons in the past to strike and knock out his foes, specifically Kyln Guards, with a strike to the head. He was even shown striking enemies with the barrels while shooting the lethal setting, which allowed him to hit harder and harm stronger opponents. While fighting Vilgax, he demonstrated being able to load specialized projectile attachments onto the barrel of his weapons, one of being a stunning device powerful enough to cause Vilgax pain. 
Proto-Tool: It is a high tech multi-functional weapon that serves as Aiden's primary weapon. The Proto-Tool can turn into a blaster, power sword, staff, bow, grappler, shield, fishing pole, and numerous other equipment. 
Weakness: 
Super Soldier Serum cure: The cure is the only thing that could take away Aiden powers. After Vilgax used it him and his wife, making it easier to kill them with ease. 
Limited healing factor: Despite the Super Soldier Serum in his body accelerating Aiden's rate of healing; it was not able to heal his right eye, after Wally stabbed an arrow into it. 
Body Dismantling: Ajay does hint that cutting Aiden into small enough pieces may kill him as his "parts" cannot regenerate without his brain or central nervous system intact. This is evident when he blows himself up in a suicide attempt, and he was unable to reassemble himself. But thanks to Hoot putting Aiden's body parts back together, Aiden was able to resuscitate himself. 
Blunt Force/Limited Durability: Though almost invulnerable, beings of equal or greater strength, namely Vilgax, can physically harm and likely kill him. Additionally, while none of the testing the Russians put him through actually harmed him, the destructive tests were clearly uncomfortable at best and painful at worst. Also, Vilgax suggested that a fully-fledged nuclear warhead could have the sufficient force to kill him. Vilgax's heat vision was also able to leave a wound on Aiden's face, showing his skin can be cut with enough force. 
Powerful Toxins: Despite his resistance towards most chemical substances, extremely powerful toxins can still affect him. It has been suggested by Arno that Aiden was knocked out by the Russians using the Novichok nerve agent, which can kill normal humans in less than a minute. The Soviets later attempted to use such a gas to subdue Aiden, but he was able to break free before its effects could be proven.
