## Abilities

* **Peak of human physical condition:** As a relatively-new vigilante, Turner is in top physical condition for his age; he is able to maintain his bodily equilibrium while both moving or staying stationary in variable positions. His resilience seems tough to endure inflicting injury without much complaint in succumbing to them. He’s been shown to have speed and reflexes in reacting to objects like a shuriken coming straight towards him and dodges it.
	+ **Acrobatics/Free-running:** Turner is fairly acrobatic, able to jump over cars and land with ease.
* **Expert hand-to-hand combatant/Martial artist:** It was noted that Bruce Wayne pushed his son into training in martial arts during his youth, which years later as a teenager he’s proven to be an experienced fighter against numerous threats. With help from Carrie, Turner was able to fend off the Talon. When the group approaches a warehouse, he sneaks up on one thug to punch him in the face before ducking and delivers a front-kick that knocks the assailant out then later as him and the others are held at gunpoint by an armed guard Carrie throws a shuriken at his hand which allows Turner to charge at him to counteract his strike, punch his throat, disarms the gun and uses it to knock him unconscious.  Turner also manages to hold his own against a professional martial artist member of the Court of Owls with aid from Duela.
	+ **Skilled swordsman:** During his schooling, Turner has been trained in the art of fencing, besting his classmates such as Brody with little to no difficulty. Additionally, Turner was able to hold his own against the Talon with assistance from Carrie. He even splices the head of a Talon clean off from behind it.
	+ **Expert thrower:** Turner was able to throw a batarang at the art thief and hit her gun with pinpoint accuracy despite the great distance.
* **Skilled detective:** Turner was unknowingly taught situational awareness by Bruce via a game called "Sore Thumb".
* **Stealth/Infiltration:** He has been sneaking in and out of Wayne Manor since he was 9 years old, an ability that has been put to the test ever since his adoptive father's death.
* **Indomitable willpower:** Turner's mind and heart has been shown to possess enormous feats on the principles of determination, justice, and selflessness. When escaping the GCPD transport, Duela attempts to shoot one of the officers until Turner intervenes, honoring his father's stance on never killing and even after being betrayed by Cressida, he still spares her life out of humility in exchange for knowledge of the Court of Owls.  His willpower also helped when the Court drugged him into a temporary hallucination.

## Equipment

* **Katana:** After returning to Wayne Tower, Turner managed to take one of his father's katana with him to use.
* **Pistol:** Turner carried a pistol when impersonating a member of the Mutant Gang to tell Harvey about their bomb. He also uses another pistol taken from Cressida to threaten a member of the Court of Owls and shoot the Talon.
