Marvel Comics/Mephisto

Mephisto is an extra-dimensional demon who rules a fiery pocket dimension that he calls Hell or Hades, although it is niehter the Hell of the Christian religion nor the Hades ruled by Pluto, the Olympian god of the dead.
== Powers and Abilities ==
Mephisto is a Class Two Demon and possesses vast supernatural power, which is apparently inherent within him. He is energized by sources of evil in the human world.
Superhuman Strength: Mephisto possesses some degree of superhuman strength. He is capable of using his magical powers to augment his strength, enabling him to lift well in excess of 100 tons.
Superhuman Speed: Mephisto is capable of running and moving at speeds greater than even the finest human athlete.
Superhuman Stamina: The various mystical energies flowing through Mephisto's body augment his musculature so that it generates virtually no fatigue toxins during physical activity. As a result, he possesses almost limitless superhuman stamina.
Superhuman Durability: The tissues of Mephisto's body, while similar in appearance to those of a human, are considerably tougher and more resistant to physical injury than those of a human being. His body is virtually invulnerable to conventional injuries, enabling him to withstand great impact forces, high caliber bullets, exposure to pressure extremes, and powerful energy blasts without sustaining injury.
* Thermal Resistance: He can withstand exposure to temperature extremes.
Accelerated Regeneration: Despite his immense durability, it is possible for Mephisto to be injured. However, his unique physiology and mystical energies enable him to rapidly recover from almost any form of injury. He is capable of regenerating almost any damaged or destroyed tissue, including missing limbs.
Immortality: As a demon, Mephisto is functionally immortal and is immune to the effects of aging.
* Disease Immunity: He is immune to all known Earthly diseases and infections.
* Self-Sustenance: He is beyond the need for food, water, or oxygen.
Magic: Mephisto can control magical energies for various effects, including:
* Precognition/Psychometry: Through a magical ritual, Mephisto is able to see the past and possible futures of those who wish to take souls. He can also see his own future.
* Physical Augmentation: He can augment his own physical strength to enable him to lift over 100 tons.
* Size Manipulation/Alteration: He is able to transform the size of his body, the bodies of others, and the size of inanimate objects.
* Interdimensional Travel: He is able to create temporary interdimensional apertures.
* Levitation
* Teleportation
* Force Blasts
* Invisibility
* Matter Manipulation
* Illusion Casting
Shapeshifting: Mephisto is able to take on any form that he desires. His "normal" appearance is that of a red-skinned male humanoid with vampiric aspects and attire. However, he can appear in any form imaginable, including turning himself into animals, humans of any gender, or other demonic forms ranging from the stereotypical aspect of Satan to a giant reptilian monster. During his confrontation with Doctor Doom and Doctor Strange, Mephisto briefly turned into an inconceivable incarnation of evil with numerous misshapen images within him.
Soul Manipulation: Mephisto is also able to capture and detain the astral bodies of recently deceased humans. He does not have jurisdiction over all the souls of humanity's recently deceased, although the prerequisite conditions for him to manipulate a human soul are unknown. Apparently, these conditions require that a human willingly agree to submit to Mephisto's will; it is unknown how a human may free themself from bondage to Mephisto, nor whether Mephisto will forever retain control over the souls he has obtained.
Reality Manipulation: Through a Faustian bargain, Mephisto is able to fulfill almost any wish that someone wants in exchange for something that they have - typically their souls. Once the agreement is sealed, it is virtually impossible for the victim to escape compliance. Mephisto can then use this deal to keep his victims under his control, being able to even prevent them from remembering they made a deal with him, although his victims will be able to vaguely recall the bargain. Generally, only Mephisto himself can undo his deals with his victims, although depending on the nature and terms of the deal made, victims have the ability to free themselves on their own. Similar to his Faustian deals, Mephisto can also make a Faustian bet on the outcome of how an event will turn out. If he wins, Mephisto can demand what he wants from his victim; however, if he loses, he is obligated to give what the winner of the bet asks for, even if it means undoing his deals.
Mephisto was also able to create the realities Earth-7161 and Earth-71241 by creating small alterations in the Earth-616 reality. He also wove the Earth-81545 reality into Earth-616. This ability does not appear to be completely permanent, as some changed aspects of the inter-woven timelines were later undone.
Dimensional Entrapment: Apparently Mephisto can entrap a living being within his realm through sheer physical force, even if that person did not submit their will to him.
Dimensional Empowerment: Mephisto's power seems to be connected to his extra-dimensional domain and diminishes over time spent away from it. Therefore, he usually sends demonic agents to do his bidding so he does not have to leave his dimension.
Medium Awareness: Mephisto possesses an unknown degree of medium awareness and was able to pause a battle between himself, Doctor Strange, and Doctor Doom to monologue to the reader of the comics.
