Hermacules

## Powers & Abilities

### Powers

* **Olympian Physiology**: As the hybrid offspring of a demon and an Old God, Captain Man possesses incredible superhuman physical abilities, such as inhuman strength, durability, speed, agility, stamina, reflexes and healing, as well as extended immortality, the ability to generate divine energy through focused energy blasts, manipulate electricity in an unlimited way, and sense the future through visions. Captain Man's power is great enough to overpower a full Old God like Zeus and contend with much stronger beings like Hercules. As such, Captain Man is one of the most powerful beings in the universe and the one of the strongest Old-Gods known to man, second only to Zeus at the moment. Although, with the death of Zeus, Hermacules is officially the strongest Olympian in the multiverse.
	+ **Superhuman Strength**: As a half demi-god, Captain Man possesses the incredible superhuman strength of Hercules, making him the second strongest Olympian and one of the strongest beings on Earth. He can effortlessly bend metal bars, slam through solid walls and reinforced glass, and pry open steel doors. Even before accessing her full divine powers, Captain Man was strong enough to dominate several military-trained soldiers during his combat training, knocking down one with a simple finger flick and another with a shield, as well as kicking Buck Caldwell's brass knucles out of his hand. Captain Man's strength extends to his ability to leap great distances. In a bar fight, he was able to throw a man across a room with an effortless shove of his hand. He effortlessly lifted an adult man with one arm and held him in the air, threw an armored Ehrhardt E-V/4 tank in the air with ease, effortlessly knock down many German soldiers with his shield, and deflect a missile with his shield. Roger's immense strength allowed him to fight Hercules, the powerful God of Strength, despite the considerable divine power of his older brother, managing to grab him from the waist and throw him against the roof of a warehouse. However, he was still easily dominated by the much stronger Hercules. With his true divine power, Captain Man was able to fight Hercules to an even greater degree, managing to knock him down and hit him in the face twice, as well as defeat a small German battalion using only his strength, and raise a very large and heavy German tank without much effort, and effortlessly toss around Hitler like a ragdoll.
	+ **Nigh-Invulnerability**: Similar to Achilles, Roger's body is virtually invulnerable to most forms of harm, as his skin, bones, and muscles are much denser and harder than those of humans and Amazons, which makes his incredibly durable. Roger is bulletproof and non-susceptible to piercing attacks, blunt force trauma, falls from high altitudes, explosions and powerful energy blasts, and withstand blows from superhuman opponents such as Hercules, Magguard, and Thunderman. While training with the other Olympians, Captain Man was not affected by the attacks of the latter, not even by the attacks of strong Amazons like Aphrodite and Poseidon, as well as by resisting the blows of the improved Adolf Hitler without any damage. Captain Man's durability allowed him to withstand Hercules' blows, despite the considerably greater strength of the God of Strength, as well as a direct hit from a sword built by Zeus, an explosion of lightning that blew it away and left him somewhat dazed, and even a tremendous explosion that left him dazed and almost slightly blinded for a few minutes and still was able to get up to fight again against his half brother. In 1945, even before unlocking his full potential, Roger was still able to survive being struck and thrown through concrete walls and pillars by Aphrodite, as well as falling into the street from a great height with two children in arms. However, Roger can only harmed by Zeus and Helmettia.
		- **Regenerative Healing Factor**: Due to his hybrid physiology, Captain Man can heal from wounds at considerable superhuman rates. This compensates for if he is ever physically harmed. During the Germans' attack on Manhattan during World War II, Captain Man suffered a wound to his shoulder that, even with much of his power being suppressed had healed completely a few minutes later. After his fight with Hercules, having regained his powers after giving up his wish, Captain Man was able to recover from the injuries and trauma, which the God of Strength had inflicted on him during their confrontation, in a matter of seconds.
		- **Self-Sustenance**: As a result of inhuman durability, Roger doesn't need to eat nor sleep, like any normal human. Captain Man has a supernatural pair of lungs which grants him total control over his breathing. Even in outer space, he manages to hold his breath effortlessly, and he even made a jump back to the Earth to the Moon in seconds without showing any signs of suffocation or symptoms. It also takes some time for Captain Man to realize he is in a vacuum environment, although it seemed to have no effect on him.
	+ **Superhuman Speed**: Not only is Roger insanely strong, but he's also terrifyingly fast. He is shown to effortlesly surpass The Flash in speed, no matter how hard the latter trains to improve his speed, Roger always remains the fastest. An impressive feat of his speed is leaving afterimages behind him due to how fast he is running, this allows him to create "afterimages", even Thunderman was fooled by one of them during their spar and had problems to find him even with his sensors at full capacity. After Roger shows up and challenges him again he uses his speed to create 10 clones of himself, which impresses Avery Stillwell, who states that this is a A-rank technique. Roger, stoic, uses his Omega Mode technique to do the same but creating tons of copies of himself, which alone shocks and beats Turbo easily. He's shown able to move any part of his person at amazing speeds and easily dodge attacks that travel even faster than light with absolute no effort. Roger is so fast that he leaves afterimages when moving at high speeds, and is agile enough to dodge Thunderman's Eye of the Flaming Sun while moving in for the kill. After assaulting Roger with a flurry of punches in his practice fight, Henry realized that he was only fighting his afterimages. Roger is capable of moving any of his limbs at extremely fast speeds without even flinching, not stopping until his target is completely obliterated. This is seen when Roger flawlessly whacks all the moles on a Whack-A-Mole machine during his date with Wanda.
	+ **Superhuman Agility**: Captain Man is seen able to make high acrobatic and agile maneuvers, possessing great athleticism, being even more agile than The Flash. He couples his unmatched agility with his unmatched speed and flexibility, which allows him to dodge, counter and catch attacks even from enemies faster than light with incredible ease. Even though he has no streching powers, Captain Man is extraordinarily flexible as a result of his training, he can pass through even the most narrow places and display highly flexible moves during combat.
	+ **Superhuman Reflexes**: Roger's reflexes are far superior to those of the finest athletes on earth. It is beyond human potential which allows him to dodge rapid gunfire in close range. Roger was once able to evade a gatling gun's gunfire from a helicopter as he was accelerating towards the airship on his motorcycle. His auto-reflexes allow him to easily dodge gunfire and respond quickly to fast pace combat. During World War II are subdued by Captain Man before they can even align their weapons on him. His immense reflexes can also be used to attack and counter instead of just defensive purposes, allowing him to punish attacks with devastating counters when fighting extraordinary quick opponents. Roger was also able to easily catch The Kraken's trident when it was hurled at him and he even had enough reflexes to be able to land three hits on the Jester himself, whose reflexes are so great that the madman completely outmatched the Crusher, and even managed to dodge Thunderman's intensive heat vision and lightning bolts from Thunderbolt.
	+ **Superhuman Stamina**: Captain Man has never been shown to get tired when fighting villains. Even when unleashing a punch more powerful than a planet-destroying attack, Roger showed no signs of fatigue. The only time in which Roger was shown to be panting and out of breath, he recovered just seconds later. Captain Man can adapt to anything and quickly evolve to any situation, automatically gaining the necessary attributes to face them. In a fight, he can adapt himself to resist abilities, replicate and enhance them to surpass their opponents, or spontaneously develop specific counterattacks as he can dynamically analyze anything that is thrown against him to quickly deducing the best course of action for his instant evolution. As a result, Roger doesn't need to eat nor sleep, like any normal human. Captain Man has a supernatural pair of lungs which grants him total control over his breath. Even in outer space, he manages to hold his breath effortlessly, and he even made a jump back to the Earth to the Moon in seconds without showing any signs of suffocation or symptoms. It also takes some time for Captain Man to realize he is in a vacuum environment, although it seems to have no effect on him.
	+ **Immortality**: Despite having been born in 1920, Captain Man appears to not have aged at all since World War II, due to his immortality, as he has the appearance and the health of a man in his thirties. This is due to his half-Olympian genes mutating and rearranging his normal human's DNA, which expanded Roger's lifespan and granted him the ability to never die, never age, never get sick, no longer suffer from pain and become completely self-sustaining, free from all bodily human necessities, and can shrug off virtually any kind of physical damage.
	+ **Superhuman Senses**: As an Olympian hybrid, Roger's senses are absolute. Captain Man's eyesight is far beyond the human norm, being able to keep track of extremely fast opponents, such as Vertigo easily. He also seems to have developed a sixth sense, being able to dodge danger even though he hasn't seen it. Nevertheless, Roger's senses have the same degree of resolution as some of Titan Man's sensors, which can detect and distinguish foes at a greater distance. In spite of it however he does possess impressively sharp hearing, being able to pick up on various chatter from bystanders a good distance away even while fighting villains. He is also able to see in the dark as he was able to spot a kid a great distance away during the night. Roger's sense of hearing enables him to detect an acoustic pressure change of one decibel at a pressure level of seven decibels (whereas the lowest threshold for average human hearing is twenty decibels). He can hear a person's heartbeat at a distance of over twenty feet, or people whispering on the other side of a standard soundproofed wall. Through practice, Roger is able to control his hearing acuity, mentally blocking out specific sounds like his own breathing and heartbeat, all ambient sounds to a normal human level of perception, or all sounds but a particular sound he is concentrating upon. Roger also utilizes his superhuman sense of hearing as an aid in processing, filtering, and interpreting the feedback of his radar/sonar sense to actually give him a three-dimensional picture of his surroundings. Additionally, Roger's combined use of his super hearing and radar sense can also give him tactical advantages, such as awareness of people hiding around the corners of rooms, walls, buildings, and furniture and makes it virtually impossible to literally blindside him. Very much like his radar sense, Roger can emit sonar waves, that are actually "echoes" that bounce off objects in his surrounding environment and listen to the echoes that return from various objects near him, and use these echoes to locate and identify the objects. Alternately, he can use ambient sounds do the same. Since this ability isn't based on sight/light, invisibility is useless against him, as are all forms of camouflage. Roger's sense of smell is so acute that he can distinguish between identical twins at twenty feet by minute differences in smell. He can detect odors of an atmospheric concentration of thirty parts per million. Furthermore, his ability to remember smells enables him to identify any person he has spent at least five minutes with by smell alone, no matter how he or she might try to camouflage his or her natural body odor. His powers of concentration are such that he can focus upon a single person's smell and follow it through a crowd of people at a distance of fifty feet. Roger can track others down easily via various means, ranging from scents to footprints. With enough experience, he can follow tracks that are days or even weeks old. He may hypothetically be able to reconstruct a prior event by sniffing around the area. He also has an extrasensory ability, allowing him to sense the future.
		- **Clairvoyance**: Hermacules has the ability to receive information about a person or an object even though he has never directly seen them before. Hermacules also has the ability to predict the future. Hermacules has used his premonition to search Adolf Hitler's location and he has had a dream about Kellan Stillwell's fate when he was in another dimension. As a result of this ability, Captain Man can hear, view, and observe people's location and condition by making projection image in his mind that shows event that is happening in faraway place.
	+ **Divine Energy Generation**: Due to his heritage, Captain Man's body appears to have started producing divine energy on its own, this ended up effectively turning him into an Old God and enhancing his temperature to become even hotter than the sun. Because of this, his body now emits high levels of divine energy at all times, however the amount of divine energy that his body creates can also be affected by his emotional state. This can be seen when Kellan Stillwell's Geiger counter recorded increased levels of divine energy when Captain Man was venting about his past, getting very emotionally distressed in the process. When Captain Man's PTSD is triggered, his emotional state can get out of control, causing him to lose control over his powers. After gaining the divine power of an Old-God, Captain Man now possesses the ability to fire tremendously powerful blasts of divine-blessed energy from his upper torso. Roger can release the energy as a forward-facing beam which lasts several seconds before his energy is depleted. He often scythes the beam by changing his direction as the beam discharges, creating a wedge-shaped or omnidirectional wave of destruction. The beam is incredibly destructive, powerful enough to completely vaporize any human, reduce Medusa to a charred corpse, fling a superhuman as durable as Kratos through a concrete wall, and destroy multi-story buildings with ease.
		- **Electricity Manipulation**: Hermacules as the demigod son of Zeus, has some degree of power over divine lightning. When Hades shot bolts of lightning at him, he caught, absorbed, and then redirected the tremendous bolts back at the God of War, killing him. He can also interact with lightning without being electrocuted, such as when he swung from lightning bolts and withstood electrocution while battling Kratos. Even while able to personally harness it, Roger mainly uses Excalibur to focus his power over electricity. Hermacules' electric bolts were already strong enough that it was able to blacken an Olympian-enhanced Hades, take down two Parademons and a large amount of the aliens, and his electrical powers was already potent enough that Hermacules could generate incredible enough levels of electricity as to help Titan Man swiftly smite the falling Romania to oblivion. Following Zeus' death and visions from his father's spirit, Hermacules finally fully unlocked his electrical powers and his powers over lightning are enhanced to the point where he could generate incredible amounts of electrical energy from his own body and summon thunder and lightning from the sky, all without the use of Excalibur. His new ability allows him to seamlessly integrate lightning into his fighting sequences against The Crusher in the Contest of Greece, and then later against Medusa along with her undead army. He becomes able to use lightning to pull and hurl enemies, blast projectiles to pieces, and infuse his weapons with electricity. Hermacules' generated lightning bolts grew so powerful that he was able to easily send an enraged Crusher flying back and visibly stun him for a time and even temporarily stun and knock down Medusa herself with a single respective blast. Hermacules was even able to cast a lightning bolt powerful enough to destroy a portion of the Serpent Bridge that Medusa was standing on to ultimately send her crashing down into the water beneath. Wielding Excalibur, Hermacules' powers over electricity grew greatly to the point that he was able to generate a lightning blast powerful enough to knock Hades back a considerable distance and using all his power, was able to charge Excalibur so powerfully that he was able to throw it with enough power to quickly slice through a thunder-beam fired from Hades, although Hades was off-guard and did not use the Thunderbolt to its full power, and grievously injure Hades in a single strike, with Hades himself admitting that he may have been able to kill him had he aimed for the head.
		- **Weapon Summoning**: Due to King Arthur's enchantment, Excalibur obeys Hermacules's calling as though it was driven by a form of intelligence. Excalibur went to Hermacules when it was in a crater miles away, arriving in seconds. Excalibur can return to Hermacules whenever he threw it at an opponent. While battling Cerberus in the Contest of the Greeks, Hermacules summoned Excalibur from another room and it came crashing through the stadium to get to him. Hermacules can also use this ability to glide on his shield just by propelling it in the air.
	+ **Flight**: Hermacules has the ability to defy gravity and fly at immensely high-speeds. While battling Kratos, he leapt into the air and gravitated down once, and then hovered for a few seconds just as she ended her battle with the God of Strength. After unlocking his powers and giving up his wish of the Dreamstone, he first learned how to fly by riding air currents (advice he remembered from Wanda). Unfamiliar with this new skill, he used his shield once to propel herself faster, but gradually became more comfortable with flight therefore no longer needing the shield to propel him. He flew at hyper-sonic speeds to help people in need on the ground during World War II.
* **Demon Physiology**: Due to his mother's heritage, Hermacules gained the powers of a demon. Hermacules has a host of unique abilities that are tied to his feelings and emotions, and as such, he has trained himself to calm all strong feelings to contain them. His power is extremely difficult to keep in check, but he has achieved control through daily meditation, mantra and utilizing chakra. She also uses a special mirror, described as "a personal meditation tool used as a portal into the multidimensional world of his mind." Hermacules' total suppression of his emotions, though, can result in his powers subconsciously manifesting - as such, he constantly struggles to express herself while still maintaining control. Hermacules often uses the Excalibur as a focal point for her exceptionally strong shadow-based powers. Though Hermacules has shown low control of these powers without calmness, he has also been shown at certain times being able to access his powers through sheer willpower. Hermacules' power fluctuates throughout his life, he has been shown gaining incredibly in strength, like when he was tutored by King Arthur or when he was empowered by his positive emotions during the battle against Hades and the Underworlders, as well as being stripped of his father's Thunderbolt. However, after losing his strongest weapon, Hermacules awakened the power of Excalibur, making him more powerful than other Olympians. He has also portrayed hidden abilities like casting spells. When Hermacules' anger gets the best of him, he can absorb the Excalibur's willpower.
	+ **Dark Magic**: After discovered his half-demon heritage, Hermacules discovered full control over total darkness. After absorbing the Sin of Wrath, Hermacules can turn the accumulated energy into blasts of intensely dark matter. It is unclear if these blasts are made out of plasma or pure dark energy. These blasts can only be fired from his hands and they can manifest as either black holes, concussive force or dark energy. As dark, his energy is capable of killing anyone, as the shadows completely overtake them. Using his energy as constructs, he has blasted through a section of metal fence and has also used it to heal his wounds with his touch. As concussive force, he has knocked grown men off their feet and even blasted a ten-foot thick metal door of its hinges. Additionally, these blasts were capable of affecting the likes of Microman and even stunning Thunderman momentarily. Upon absorbing a greater amount of darkness than normal, Hermacules was even able to floor Hades for a brief moment, stunning him long enough for Wanda to temporarily overpower him. Hermacules can create, shape and manipulate dark matter, a hypothetical type of matter distinct from baryonic matter (ordinary matter such as protons and neutrons), neutrinos and many forms of dark energy. Although dark matter has not been directly observed, its existence and properties are inferred from its gravitational effects, and it is estimated to make up 84% of the universe's mass and 23% of its mass-energy while controlling his emotions.
		- **Portal Creation**: Using Dark Magic, Hermacules can open a hole in the universe connecting two non-adjacent locations. Hermacules can use this ability in a very neat manner, such as connecting two doorways in the universe, and it can be used very sloppily like breaking a rift in the space-time continuum, however Hermacules seems to have control over this. Hermacules can also manipulate dimensions to tear a tiny hole through two universes and manipulate space to overlap two points in the universe or a wormhole connecting those two points. He can also teleport people and objects. He can create a portal that also allows him to teleport alongside people or direct their attacks, as he teleported him and Wanda to Germany.
			* **Interdimensional Travel**: Hermacules can use his portals to travel himself and others between different dimensions and universes, and cross over different planes of existence. Hermacules can use his control over dimensions to tear a tiny hole through several universes and manipulate space to overlap multiples points in the universe or a wormhole connecting those points to travel universes, he has claimed to have traveled dimensions.
	+ **Telepathy**: Due to his intellect, Hermacules has demonstrated the ability to enter, manipulate, and alter people's mindscape with or without the target's agreement. He was able to take himself into Diana's mind in order to free her from mind control. He was also able to induce other people to sleep, control the minds of others, and create realistic illusions in the minds of others to trick her opponents, like he did to Kellan Stillwell, and he was even able to communicate and torture other people mentally, as well as read the mind of other beings.
		- **Hypnotic Suggestion**: Hermacules can control the minds of others, including their thoughts, perceptions, memories, emotions and personality. Depending on the percent of usage, he can range from a trance-like state very similar to hypnosis, to the target being completely subject to his control. Hermacules is able to control the minds of multiple people simultaneously. His target's can be placed in a semi-conscious state, where they may have no recollection of any actions that they perform while under Hermacules's control; and whilst enthralled, the recipients may display capacities that they would otherwise not be capable of in their normal state. Hermacules can fully interpret the emotions, moods, and temperaments of others without reading apparent symptoms, allowing them to understand introverts or discover one emotion is actually hiding another. He can attack someone in a personal and emotional way since he knows exactly what emotion is flowing through his targets and can use this knowledge to play against them. He can also learn to read emotional imprints left into environment or objects. Usually over time, Hermacules's power grows to the point that he can manipulate emotions in others, and learn to use them to empower himself or his targets.
	+ **Superhuman Intelligence**: Captain Man's mental performance has been greatly superhuman to the very peak of human potential and beyond, thus allowing his mind to operate in the most efficient and rapid manner possible. Some manifestation of this is his exceptionally perfect charisma, eloquence, leadership skills, deductive/analytical skills, and tactical genius. Roger has demonstrated the ability to quickly process multiple information streams (e.g., threat assessment) and rapidly respond to any changing tactical situations, by creating perfect winning strategies rapidly. He possesses perfect memory as demonstrated when he was able to perfectly replicate the locations of all DELTA bases on a map, despite "only getting a glance." He is able to learn anything- he can memorize, understand and recall all kinds of information and skills in extraordinary capacity and in limited time. Even though he was unconscious, he was able to recall the conversation Plex agents had while they were deforesting him. Even with his limited knowledge of modern technology, he was still able to help Titan Man repair a PlexJet and prevent it from crashing, or when he quickly gave the Seven and the first responders an efficient plan to minimize and contain damage from the android invasion. Since his father's, Zeus, Old God genes amplifies personality aspects as well, Roger's brain chemistry is also altered. Though Roger was brave, determined, and compassionate before, his heritage has amplified those character traits.
