## Powers

* Atmokinesis: Eric is the most potent atmokinetic on the planet, by far. He is able to sense and control the weather within an approximately 2000 mile radius, allowing him to effectively dominate the weather patterns of any continent he stands on. Effectively, this allows him to wreak destruction on a scale beyond any other meta on the planet. He is able to produce Category 5 hurricanes within a matter of minutes, rapidly freeze deserts or turn tundra scorching hot, flatten buildings with blasts of wind, and level neighborhoods with summoned lightning bolts.
	+ Simulated Telekinesis: While not a telekinetic himself, Eric is able to mimic the effects of telekinesis by manipulating the air, allowing him to grab and manipulate objects. When applying this ability, objects he "grabs" are surrounded by moving wind currents, which can often be heard by the human ear, depending on how large they are.
* Durability: Eric is astoundingly resilient, and is one of the toughest metas on the face of the Earth. He is utterly unaffected by conventional weaponry, and is capable of withstanding nuclear explosions, with high yield ones, or the force of extremely powerful metahumans, being able to damage him.
	+ Immunity (Electricity): Eric is completely immune to all negative effects caused by contact with electricity.
* Electrokinesis: Eric is a potent electrokinetic. Primarily, this ability manifests with the ability to produce electric fields and lightning bolts from his body. He can direct the lightning generated from his own form, allowing it to move in unnatural paths. He is unable to directly manipulate external sources of electricity, though the electric fields he generates can disrupt electronic equipment elsewhere.
	+ EMP: Eric is capable of generating Electromagnetic Pulses to disable electronic equipment. His most impressive instance of this ability was when he shut down all electronics in Varger Academy's Boomtowns during a demonstration, which carried over a twenty mile radius.
	+ Stun Bolt: Eric has mastered the art of producing an electric bolt that instantly incapacitates any ordinary human it strikes. He can do the same with metahumans as well, provided he has a sufficient understanding of their physiology.
* Flight: Eric is capable of high speed flight, with a top flight speed of Mach 9, though he can maintain full maneuverability only at about Mach 3. Eric's method of flight does not employ the antigravity field common in fast fliers. Instead, he propels himself by manipulating the winds, which he can employ to grab other passengers and objects as well.
* Regeneration: Eric possesses a near identical copy of his father's healing factor. He is able to recover from most wounds, barring dismemberment, within a matter of a few short hours.
	+ Delayed Aging: Due to his regenerative abilities, Eric ages notably slower than an ordinary man, at a rate of around one year for every 2.5 years that pass.
* Speed: Eric is possessed of superhuman speed, and is capable of running at speeds of around Mach 1.4 (1,065 mph/1715 kph), meaning he has the speed of a decent speedster. While not quite as fast as most bullets, he is able to react to them with comfortable ease when they come in his general direction. Through practice, he has gotten to the point where he can safely redirect the entire clips of around three automatic weapons being simultaneously fired at him.
* Strength: Eric is one of the most physically powerful metas on the face of the Earth. Able to lift weights far, far in excess of one thousand tons, he is able to toss and smash large buildings about like toys. With his father's physical condition having deteriorated due to his old age, Eric has solidly surpassed his sire in terms of physicality. He is not quite as strong as his former teammate, Rampage, but Eric demonstrated himself capable of hitting hard enough to cause him harm, able to deflect if not outright stop blows, and restrain him if given proper positioning and leverage.
