Kryptonians

**Kryptonians** are an extraterrestrial humanoid species of beings who originate on the planet Krypton. Kryptonians are basically human in their structure and appearance, but their biology is far more advanced than that of Earth based humans. They are able to utilize energy in their body in far more direct and elaborate manners than Earth based humans do. The source of their immense energy metabolizing abilities lies in their cells, which are said to be the greatest organic power storage units in the known galaxy.

Various dimensional Kryptonians have developed superpowers in regard to Earth-based humans that vary drastically in comparison to their various native dimensions. Super speed, heat vision, x-ray vision, and super breath are among many Kryptonian superpowers.

## Weaknesses

**Alien physiology:**

* **Vulnerability to Magic:** Kryptonians' biomatrix is their most powerful asset, but the strength of this field is also its greatest weakness. Its permeability to certain wavelengths makes them vulnerable to certain radiations, particularly magical energies whose chaotic electromagnetic or extra dimensional signatures disrupt this force field. Kryptonians' vulnerability to magic varies depending upon the special effects of the magic. No magic seems to be able to directly destroy them unless it comes from a semi-divine or divine source. They can be injured and worn down by magical entities. Magic can have powerful and unpredictable effects on Kryptonians and their magical enemies have often proven to be the most dangerous.
* **Vulnerability to Chi:** Lex Luthor and Question argued that, because of Kryptonians' solar based powers, planetary based esoteric and vital forces could have an opposite effect on them. Luthor posited that concentrated doses of such energies could severely cripple a Kryptonian and become fatal, and he attempted to exploit this weakness with the Science Spire, which tapped into the energies.
* **Vulnerability to Kryptonite:** Since the destruction of Krypton, its remains (rendered radioactive by the explosion) have been spreading throughout the universe as Kryptonite, a crystalline substance whose specific radioactive wavelength is lethal to Kryptonians native to this reality. The most common form of Kryptonite is Green Kryptonite, and its effect is directly poisonous to them. Kryptonite from other realities does not necessarily have the same effects on all Kryptonians.
* **Vulnerability to Sound Frequencies:** Kryptonian physiognomies are incredibly susceptible to hyper and high-hypersonic wave projection, exposures to which been proven to be fatal even with their physically invulnerable frames. Cyborg once even commenting that that his technologies would enable him to simulate a vibrational oscillatory tune that can kill Superman in less than 5sec. Something which The Midnighter exploited using the sonic weapons tech of Modora to shatter a super soldier amalgamate creation of Director Bendix known as The Unified's brain and indestructible skull.
* **Vulnerability to Variable Irradiation:** Certain radiological frequencies could hamper a Kryptonian's physical ability to harness and circulate solar radiation, as was the case when surviving a nuclear blast left Kal-El physically emaciated and trying to heal via solar energy caused him agony, or when Vandal Savage implemented similar tactics to weaken both him and his cousin Kara by bathing their cells in a specialized radioactive isotope that impeded their cellular matrix's capacity to absorb and repurpose yellow sunlight.
* **Lead:** Kryptonians cannot see through lead with their X-Ray Vision powers.
* **Solar Energy Dependancy:** Their abilities will eventually weaken without replenishing their energy reserves with normal (yellow) sun radiation. When exposed to the same red solar radiation as Krypton's red sun Rao, it causes Kryptonians to lose their powers and stamina with a large amount of exposure, until exposure to yellow sunlight reverses this effect. Against potent enough energy absorbents, this dependency can also become a weakness if the yellow solar energies powering them are leeched from their bodies. kal-El once insinuating that Triumph could very well potentially kill him by doing so.
* **Psionics:** Most Kryptonians, no matter how powerful they may be, are highly vulnerable to psychic effects, such as telepathy, telekinesis, Illusion Projection and the like. Max Lord was able to trick Superman into believing that Batman and Wonder Woman were both Doomsday with Mind Control, while the Kryptonian clone H'el managed to fray Superboy's genetic structure by pulling it apart with advanced Telekinesis.
* **Invulnerability:** The same ability to be nearly impossible to harm when exposed to Earth's sunlight, means that when they are harmed, human medical equipment is rendered useless, as proven when it once took Kilowog (New Earth)'s inventiveness and Superman's heat vision to perform surgery on Powergirl.
* **Vulnerability to Intangibility:** A cleaver usage of phasing powers by Leonard Sawyer, the Ghost Soldier, shows a means of bypassing a Kryptonians imperviousness to harm by rapidly shifting between solid and immaterial state in intervals to split the superdense molecular structural latices of the last son of Krypton's flesh. This can also be arsenalized by phasing objects into a Kryptonians body
