Kid Flash (Wallace West)

## Background

Real Name: Wallace Rudolph "Ace" West III

## Powers & Abilities

* **Speed Force Conduit:** After his future counterpart's death, Wallace gained a connection to the Speed Force, a mysterious cosmic force that pushes time and space itself forward. As it does this, the Speed Force creates excess energy that builds up and needs to be released. Wallace, along with all speedsters connected to the Force, acts as a release valve for the Speed Force. When Wallace uses his powers, he taps into that built up energy and expends it.
	+ **Superhuman Speed:** Wallace is capable of moving at vast superhuman speeds and can only be perceived as a blur to the naked eye, as well as run across water and up buildings. Wallace does admit he is not as fast as Barry Allen but is still able to move at superhuman speeds equal to the speed of light (186,000 miles per second).
	+ **Superhuman Reflexes:** Wallace possesses reflexes far greater than a normal human being. This allows him to perceive the world in slow motion.
	+ **Superhuman Stamina:** Wallace's body can handle the stress of moving at superhuman speeds for long periods of time without out getting tired or weak.
	+ **Superhuman Agility:** Wallace's agility, balance, and bodily coordination are enhanced to superhuman levels. This allows him to easily make sharp turns and leap far distances while moving at superhuman speed.
	+ **Speed Force Aura:** Wallace's body is surrounded by a Speed Force Aura, or "friction cushion" - a bubble of space-time accelerated to the same velocity as Wallace. This aura allows Wallace to breathe and hear sounds while moving at immense speeds, as well as protects him and anyone who he is running with from the rigorous effects of using his speed, including friction, airborne particulate matter, kinetic impacts, G-Force and the like.
		- **Superhuman Durability:** Wallace is capable of resisting tremendous kinetic impact forces that could easily crush or kill a human, without suffering any serious external or internal injuries.
	+ **Accelerated Healing:** Wallace is able to rapidly regenerate from injuries at rates much quicker than any normal human.
	+ **Aerokinesis:** By running in a circular motion or spinning his arms at super-speed, Wallace is able to generate strong vortices of wind. He was also able to use his speed to generate enough differential wind to cancel out the force of a large tidal wave.
	+ **Dimensional Travel:** By homing in on the energy signature left by Deathstroke's gravity sheath, Wallace was able to accelerate faster than ever before, past light-speed and into the Speed Force.
	+ **Electrokinesis:** Wallace is able to generate and manipulate the electrical energy he draws from the Speed Force. This Speed Force lightning emanates off of him as a red aura of electricity, especially when he moves at super-speed. Wallace was able to use his Speed Force lightning to restart the Flash's heart after it had given out.
		- **Electro-Blast:** Wallace has learned that if he focuses, he can project his Speed Force energy as bolts of lightning from his hands. By running in circles, he can build a larger charge and hurl much more powerful lightning bolts.
		- **Electromagnetism:** Due to his electrokinetic abilities, Wallace possesses some level of manipulation over magnetism. He can use his lightning to create electromagnetic fields. By running across Girder's back, he was able to align the atoms of his metallic skin, turning him into a giant magnet.
		- **Energy Construct Creation:** Wallace discovered if he concentrated, he could use the Speed Force to create solid energy constructs, which he used to compose his costume.
		- **Light Projection:** When in extreme duress, Wallace is able to generate blinding amounts of light through sheer force of will.
		- **Speed Force Absorption:** By interlocking energy currents, Wallace can drain away the Speed Force, or Negative Speed Force from other speedsters who's DNA has not completely bonded to the Speed Force, or energy sources such as a Speed Force storm.
		- **Speed Force Negation:** By interlocking his Speed Force energy currents with another speedster, Wallace is able to temporarily short circuit the other speedsters power, creating a "lightning burst". He was also able to calm the Negative Speed Force in the Flash, by interlocking energy currents with him.
	+ **Enhanced Senses:** The Speed Force grants Wallace enhanced senses that allow him to perceive the world at a rate attuned his reaction speed. When the Flash "died" after his heart gave out, the Speed Force drew Wallace to his location. He was also able to feel the Speed Force in Wally's body after his death.
	+ **Molecular Acceleration:** When Wallace vibrates his molecules too fast, he can cancel out the molecular frequency of objects around him and destroy them.
	+ **Speed Steal:** Wallace is able to absorb the speed and/or momentum from moving objects. He demonstrated this by slowing a group of airborne bullets.
	+ **Time Travel:** By running fast enough, Wallace was able to travel back to the time stream and then to the present from being in stuck in "Nowhen".
	+ **Telepathy:** Wallace has demonstrated the ability to enter the minds of other speedsters via the Speed Force.

* **Hand-to-Hand Combat (Basic):** Has received training from Robin, Red Arrow and had participated in practice drills with the Teen Titans.
* **Mechanical Aptitude:**
