Citizen Kadabra

**Citizen Kadabra**, also known as **Abra Kadabra**, is a criminal time traveler from the 64th century. He has outfitted his body with futuristic nanotechnology which provided him with a range of abilities that, for all intents and purposes, are almost indistinguishable from magic and sorcery in the eyes of 21st century humans.

Abra Kadabra claimed that he and Barry Allen were old enemies in his future and also claimed to know who started the blue fires.

## Biography

#### Early life

Citizen Kadabra was born sometime in the 64th century. At some point, he outfitted his body with advanced nanotechnology, which provided him with a wide range of abilities that most people in the 21st century would perceive as magic. Adopting the moniker "Abra Kadabra", he became a criminal exploiting time travel for his own personal gain, primarily in the 21st century.

#### Encounters with the Flash

At some point after 2022, Abra Kadabra came into contact with Barry Allen/The Flash and had several encounters that left Abra Kadabra with a bitter hatred of the Scarlet Speedster. He came to learn much about Barry's personal life including a relationship with Iris West. He also became aware of the Flash's other enemies, such as Eobard Thawne/Reverse-Flash.

#### Trapped in the past

At some point, Abra Kadabra went back in time and got stuck in the past.

Abra Kadabra appeared in Central City to steal some more technology to build himself a timeship to travel back to the 64th century. He first targeted Stagg Industries, where he was confronted by two guards. Abra trapped the two in a vat and then had it fill with water so that they would drown. At his second robbery, Abra was confronted by the Flash. He had expected to run into the speedster, but was thrown to see him look much younger than he was used to. He revealed that he knew his identity and that he knew that Barry was dealing with the impending death of his love, Iris.

## Personality

Abra Kadabra was much like Eobard Thawne as he wanted to return home to the future and was willing to commit many terrible acts in order to do so, including murder.

## Powers and abilities

### Powers

* **Techno-magic:** Abra Kadabra was augmented with various nanotechnology infused into his body, which allowed him to perform various superhuman feats. To the perception of people from an earlier era, his 64th century technology could easily be mistaken for magic.
	+ **Conjuration:** Abra Kadabra has the ability to seemingly materialize whatever he desires out of thin air. To date this includes filling a glass chamber with water when there was no known water source, creating a fake arm that the Flash grabbed onto, creating several hundreds of playing cards that he can send flying as projectiles, materializing a harness around the Flash to incapacitate him.
	+ **Hologram projection:** Abra Kadabra can project holograms from thin air, even when he is not in the vicinity.
	+ **Teleportation:** Abra Kadabra was able to teleport in and out of anything. He could use this ability to teleport others, as seen when he trapped two security guards in a glass box. He could also teleport objects, such as covering an item under a handkerchief and making it disappear, or teleporting meta cuffs off of him and putting them on the Flash.

### Abilities

* **Genius-level intellect/Expert scientist/ Expert tactician/Expert engineer:** As Abra Kadabra comes from the 64th century, he is considered a genius amongst individuals from the 21st. century; even considering the Flash (who is also a genius in his own right) to be a backwards thinker. He has enough experience with 21st century technology to construct a timeship, knowing what pieces he needed and where to get them. Kadabra is also a brilliant strategist as shown during his second appearance when he took every variable of his plan into consideration to insure team Flash couldn’t stop him. He would have succeeded had the Flash not been able to appeal to his heart.

### Former weaknesses

* **Power-dampening tech:** Abra Kadabra's powers appeared to operate similar to those of meta-humans.

## Appearances

## Behind the scenes

* In the DC comics, Abra Kadabra is an enemy of the Flash, a magician from the 64th century, where technology completely replicated something that would have been seen as magic centuries ago. With no interest for magicians in his century, Citizen Abra traveled through time, trying to earn pride and adoration in the Flash's era, both with magic shows and masterful crimes, seeking attention at all costs. After losing his technology, he made a deal with a demon for magical powers.
* His nickname is a play on the phrase "abracadabra", an incantation often used in stage magic tricks.
