*, and as an original Herald and he is 
*Contributed to the making of the constructs under the Dome. 
*Defeated multiple Techno Samurais, 
*Fought on par with Marcus, with just his small army of Purists, and who as a Living Legend should be comparable to 
*Is a copy of the Real Itu and as such should inherit the former's fighting talent. As any early Herald, the Real Itu underwent harsh martial arts training from a young age. The Real Itu was personally trained by his mentor, the Real Bolo, leader of all Heralds, and was the best fighter of the Heralds' martial arts Academy, a cruel slaughterhouse in disguise founded by the Real Bolo in order to make his pupil the perfect Herald warrior by killing other harshly trained Heralds in duels. The Real Itu bested his master in combat, who as one of the Three Arrows is the equal of both Emperor and Galen, the former who defeated in combat a Night Warrior (Night Warriors being Shadow's own, personal army of blind soliders chosen by himself for their ability to fight well in spite of not having any sight), and whose battle impressed Shadow, giving him the impression that the Dynasty's people are very talented and skillful fighters, and the latter who was Shadow's own pupil at some point, and who later on founded his own fighting school, one of the best in all of Dynasty ( ).
Weaknesses: As Shadow Itu, he is obsessed with studying his opponents and will even choose to take hits from them in order to find their source of power, not caring how strong they are, but "what makes them tick", although this obsession may only be manifested towards Shadow Energy users, since he as a Herald wants to learn all possible powers of Shadow Energy by observing his opponent's usage of it. His judgement is also clouded in this state due to being at constant war with Shadow Mind and battles it inside of his mind over the control of his body, although he gets weaker with every second and Shadow Mind is gaining power. Shadow and his progeny's near presence stifle Shadow Mind, greatly weakening it.
