Notable Powers and Abilities:
*Portal Creation: The first of Nimble Jack's powers shown in the series, he is capable of creating shining blue portals to and from an unknown location. Although it appears Jack simply originates from the Hungry World, Declan implied that he actually originated from another location even further beyond the normal world.
*Nimble Movement: The power from which he gains his name. Nimble Jack is described as being able to move in "unreasonable" ways. First shown as allowing him to crawl along walls and ceilings and twist and contort his body to slip through narrow passages, it is later shown that he can also move through solid objects, easily passing through moving cars and buses in his pursuit of Declan and Reece.
*Mind Absorption: Jack's most threatening power is his ability to absorb and consume the minds of others. He can absorb minds from both the living and the dead, shown when he absorbed the mind of a prisoner after the man hung himself. He is capable of absorbing the minds of multiple beings at once, shown when he absorbed the minds of multiple beings from the Hungry World and when he absorbed the minds of everyone on a bus. Beings who are mental in nature such as the denizens of the Hungry World explode into nothingness when Jack absorbs them, while physical beings maintain their physical form but enter a near-braindead state where they will mindlessly follow Jack's instructions.
*Insanity: Jack finds that insane minds taste the best when absorbed, and has a variety of methods to drive his victims insane prior to consuming them. He is capable of using illusions to break the minds of his victims by exploiting their fears and paranoia, can "infect" others with the insanity he has gathered from others, can create medical pills capable of driving people insane via overdose, and simply seeing him and thinking about him can potentially drive a person insane. His powers over insanity are also very similar to Declan's so he may be capable of simply worsening the madness present within the minds of others directly.
