<tabber>
|-|Base=Superhuman Physical Characteristics, Forcefield Creation (Can erect a magical barrier that shifts his own elemental resistances, making him vulnerable to a single element while causing all others to replenish his health, cycling through several different affinities over the course of his battle), Magic, Elemental Manipulation (Fire, Lightning, Ice, Wind and Shadow), Memory Manipulation (Erased his own memories after his final encounter with Lavos and Schala), Transmutation (Turned Glenn into a frog), Flight, Precognition, Teleportation, Non-Physical Interaction (Magical attacks and special techniques are capable of harming Shadows, which are stated to be ghosts invulnerable to attacks from regular weapons, and the TotalChaos, which are inhabitants of the Temporal Vortex, a lower-dimensional plane described as lacking substance entirely. Capable of interacting with the Dream Devourer, who resides in the depths of the Darkness Beyond Time as an unborn, nullified entity, at the very end of the post-game dungeons). Resistance to Darkness Manipulation, Absorption (Survived being fed to the Mammon Machine, which should have assimilated him into Lavos), Space-Time Manipulation (Fought against, and defeated Lavos, standing unaffected by his constant distortions of the fabric of spacetime during the final battle, which Robo states occur due to the energies he emits naturally placing strain in its fabric. Unbothered by the Dimensional Vortex, which is stated to be a place where there is no stability of spacetime whatsoever), Dream Manipulation, Conceptual Manipulation (Type 1), Memory Manipulation, Mind Manipulation and Void Manipulation (Can survive Lavos' ultimate magical attack, Dreamreaver, as well as endure the Dream Devourer subsuming dreams into the nothingness of the Darkness Beyond Time, also consuming thoughts and memories alongside them), as well as possibly most of Lavos' offensive abilities (Upon becoming aware of his defeat at the hands of Crono's party in the far future, Lavos seemingly concluded that there was no way to directly defeat them in spite of his overwhelmingly larger repertoire of abilities, choosing instead to save himself by indirectly changing history in order to create a branched timeline where the Day of Lavos went on uninterrupted)
|-|With Optional Equipment= Statistics Amplification, Soul Manipulation (His strongest scythe, the Dreamreaper, is stated to harvest souls), Absorption of Elemental attacks (Electricity/Light/Holy Manipulation, Fire/Explosion Manipulation, Ice/Water Manipulation, Shadow Manipulation), Information Analysis, Berserk Mode and Resistance to Poison, Sleep, Time Manipulation, Statistics Reduction and Power Nullification
</tabber>
Attack Potency: Universe level+ (Fought against a greatly empowered Queen Zeal within the Black Omen, and went on to fight and defeat all of Lavos' three forms alongside the other party members)
Speed: Massively Hypersonic+ Combat and Reaction Speed (Can keep up with Lavos in its shell, body, and core, as well as attack with, react to, natural lightning)
Lifting Strength: Superhuman
Striking Strength: Universe level+
Durability: Universe level+ (Can take hits from the likes of Queen Zeal and Lavos)
Stamina: Superhuman
Range: Standard Melee Range. Extended Melee Range with his scythe. Tens of Meters with omnidirectional ranged magic attacks.
Standard Equipment: His Scythe
Intelligence: An extremely skilled combatant and competently magician, hailing from an extremely advanced kingdom that had long mastered the art and usage of magic, and efficiently leading the Mystics in the war against humans during his stay in the Middle Ages despite having most of his attention focused on the summoning of Lavos, managing to successfully manipulate various people into joining his cause. His magical prowess is enough to astound Spekkio, the God of War, who goes as far as claiming that there is nothing he can teach Magus, and that the latter can in fact teach him a thing or two about magic.
Weaknesses: Takes extra damage from attacks imbued with the element of Light. Although this can be circumvented by setting up a magical barrier.
