## Powers and Abilities

### Powers;

* Asgardian Physiology;
	+ Superhuman Strength: Hela has vast superhuman strength, being able to overpower even the strongest of Asgardians such as Thor.
	+ Superhuman Speed: Hela can move at speeds greater than the finest human athlete.
	+ Superhuman Stamina: Due to her role as a God and her heritage, Hela possesses almost limitless physical stamina.
	+ Superhumanly Dense Tissue: Hela's body tissue is three times more dense than a regular human, which contributes to her durability and strength.
	+ Superhuman Durability: Hela's body is considerably more resistant to physical injury than the bodies of human beings, and most other Asgardians. Hela is capable of withstanding great impact forces, temperature and pressure extremes, high caliber bullets, and powerful energy blasts without sustaining injury.
	+ Regenerative Healing Factor: Despite her body's high resistance to injury, it is possible to injure her. However, Hela's body is capable of healing itself with high levels of superhuman speed and efficiency. The extent of Hela's healing abilities is considerably beyond that of the vast majority of Asgardians.
	+ Extended Longevity: Hela, like all Asgardians, is not completely immune to aging but she does age at a rate much slower than that of a human being. She is also immune to all known earthly diseases and infections.

* Magic Manipulation: Hela is capable of manipulating great quantities of Asgardian magic for numerous purposes, such as limitless astral projection, firing deadly bolts of energy from her hands that could kill an immortal,  levitation, time-travel and the creation of illusions. She is even capable of channelling the energy through her hand and use them to strike a powerful blow that can rend even the strongest Asgardian flesh. She refers to this as the "Hand of Glory"
	+ Astral Projection: Hela is able to travel about in her astral form, possessing the same powers of death as her physical form has. Because of her Asgardian metabolism, she does not have any limitation on the amount of time she can spend out of her physical form, unlike mortal astral projectionists.
	+ Dimensional Travel: Hela had sufficient magical power to transport herself and her army from Niflheim to Asgard.
	+ Illusion Casting: Hela can cast and maintain powerful illusion spells that fool even the most powerful of beings. This was seen when she disguised herself as an old woman, which fooled Odin, Frigga and Thor.
	+ Shadowmancy: Hela can conjure and manipulate vast quantities of shadows and darkness, to the extent light has no affect on the darkness at all.
	+ Control Over Life and Death: As the Asgardian Goddess of Death, Hela holds the power of life and death over the gods of Asgard. Death for an Asgardian is somewhat different from death for an Earth human being. In both cases, the corporeal body ceases all functions and activities, but whereas mortal spirits flee the physical form at the moment of death, the spirits of gods remain in their bodies until the death goddess draws them out and dispatches them to her realms. These spirits (or astral selves) remain integral for eternity and reside, apparently forever, in the other-dimensional realms of Hel and Niflheim, where they take on a quasi-physical existence, under Hela's control. Although Hela is usually content to wait until an Asgardian is on the verge of succumbing to fatal wounds before she touches him or her and draws the spirit from his or her body, she can also kill perfectly healthy Asgardians with her touch if she chooses. Although Hela's touch of death is effective even when she touches someone with her gloved hand, she must contact that person's bare skin for him or her to die. However, Hela can also project mystic bolts that will cause their target to age or die, even if they strike a portion of the target's body that is covered by clothing.

### Abilities;

* Allspeak: Thanks to the Allspeak, she can communicate in all of the languages of the Nine Realms, Earth's dialects, and various alien languages.
* Hand to Hand Combat (advanced)
* Swordsmanship (advanced)
