Omnilingual Translation: Doug is a hyper-linguist and has a superhuman facility for translating any language, spoken or written, human or alien in origin. His superhuman skill also extends to his great facility in deciphering codes and computer languages, as well as understanding hidden intentions and body language. Doug's skills are such that he was once able to make great headway in translating the written language of an extraterrestrial race in a matter of minutes. His mutant talent for translating differs from the translating ability that a human who is a genius in the field, yet is not a mutant, possesses, even though both people might achieve the same results with any given translation problem. Doug's mutant talent is an intuitive one which works on a subconscious level, whereas others will have to work out a translation consciously, step-by-step.
Doug's recent return from death has abnormally widened his perspective. Everything he sees is now interpreted into information, and everything is language to him now. This power enhancement extends into combat, making him able to interpret his opponents' moves as language. This has vastly increased his combat skills to the point where he was able to defeat the rest of the New Mutants by himself.
