**Kent Nelson**, better known as **Doctor Fate** , is a superhero from DC Comics. He is a powerful magical sorcerer and guardian of order.

## Background

Born as Kent Nelson, his life was anything but normal. With his father Sven being an archaeologist who firmly believed that the pyramids in the Valley of Ur were built by aliens. He brought his son with him on the expedition (which you would think a father would not do considering how dangerous pyramids can be). However, in that tomb wasn’t aliens but rather the remains of Nabu - the Lord of Order.

The Lords of Order were first created alongside the Lord of Chaos. However, like brothers they fought over millennia with Nabu eventually decided to go to Earth in order to fight the Lord of Chaos though he was drained during his many battles and resides in that Pyramid.

Now let’s go back to the present, Sven and Kent accidently released Nabu which caused a poisonous gas to appear which led to the death of Sven Nelson. Taking pity on young Kent (mostly because his father’s death was Nabu’s fault and well he planned everything), Nabu decide that he would train Kent in the ways of magic and sorcery so that he would become the defender of the earth.

Nabu spend years training Kent, allowing him to withstand the effects of wearing the helmet (considering the amount of power it wields - it can put a huge strain on the human body), When Kent and Nabu merged, they became Doctor Fate. Upon returning to America, he would meet Inza Cramer - his wife and later successor. The two helped each other and eventually Kent would become a superhero - becoming a member of DC’s first superhero team - the Justice Society. However, he would eventually die due to aging and the mantle of Doctor Fate would be passed to many others.

## Equipment

* **Helmet of Fate:** The helmet granted to Kent by Nabu, the helmet is the source of his immense magical powers. The helmet is very ancient, gaining every single experience from past users and even Nabu, a being with 500,000 years of experience. It contains its own universe, extremely durable as it survived being thrown across dimensions at the "velocity of a god". It's also extremely fast, able to outpace the big bang and capable of reforming itself, and a greater resistance to absorption

The Amulet of Anubis is extremely powerful, holding a pocket universe inside of it as well as being used to imprison foes. It also increases Doctor Fate’s magical power as well as making Doctor Fate undetectable through magical or psychic means.
* **Cloak of Destiny:** Made out of pure force, this cloak has a Shadow Dimension inside of it that can be used to protect those who are inside as well as disorientate others. He can also use it to protect himself against ranged attacks and to fly.
* **Orb of Nabu:** The Orb of Nabu is a crystal globe that is used by Dr. Fate to learn about any potential dangers in the future and to learn about an opponent and their abilities. Usually the crystal is kept inside the Tower of Fate, but it could also be summoned by Fate at will. Surprisingly, it is not magical (at least according to Kent) as it uses radio sensitive crystals.
* **Tower of Fate:** This is a safe haven for those who use the mantle of Doctor Fate. The tower contains multiple magical artifacts and tomes that Doctor Fate can use, and only he can allow people to freely enter and leave the tower. Fate can also sense who is inside the tower and warp reality within it to get rid of unwanted intruders.

## Transformation

### Nabu

Nabu himself can also manifest on the physical plane to attack. However, it is extremely taxing to him so he tends to rely a human host in order to keep in the physical plane. But if Kent is incapacitated or killed, Nabu can manifest himself. Nabu is the strongest Lord of Order and thus strong enough to battle the JSA who consist of some of the most powerful heroes in the DC Universe and has fought the likes of Mordu and the Spectre - the literal Wrath of God.

### Truimative Fate

This is by far the strongest form of Doctor Form and appears after merging the essence of Inza & Kent Nelson and Fate. This form is able to sense threats across the multiverse and is able to manipulate both Order and Chaos Magic. Doctor Fate in this form was able to curb stomp the union of Ynar and Vandaemon which was threatening the multiverse.

## Feats

### Strength

* Fate and Spectre physically hold the destruction of the universe in their hands
* When Fate taps into the power of creation it is so powerful that the effect is felt across dimensions
* Nabu is the most powerful Lord of Order
* Defeated Ynar and Vandaemon to save the multiverse after Doctor Fate became his most powerful foe. Ynar and Vandemon were capable of destroying the multiverse.
* Fate has been able to fight the Spectre numerous times and has even survived the Spectre throwing him through infinite dimensions and the end of time. Spectre was much more powerful than Pre-Crisis Superman who could destroy solar systems by sneezing and was described as the most powerful being in all of creation - something that could easily destroy multiple universes if he wanted to.
* The Helmet of Fate can endanger all of creation
* Knocked out an evil Superman through physical force
* Kent can lift cars without Helmet of Fate.
* Is physically strong enough to lift an airplane
* Has matched the Lord of Chaos Mordu several times. Considering that Mordu is as powerful as Nabu that’s impressive.
* Nabu is stated to be able to destroy the Sphere of the Gods one-by-one alongside the other Lords of Order

### Speed

* Moved several miles in a second
* Easily dodged a bloodlusted Superman and Martian Manhunter who were both massively faster than light.
* Dodged a punch from Typhon
* Flew 28 decillion times the speed of light.
* The Helmet of Fate traveled through meta-space at the ‘velocity of god’
* The Helmet outraced the Big Bang. In order to do such a feat it would at the very least requied speed decillions of times the speed of light past 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000c. And yes, Doctor Fate scales to this
	+ However, the Helmet wasn’t moving on it’s own. Shazam threw the Helmet so hard, it could travel at that speed and it’s unclear whether or not the Helmet did any maneuvering at the time
* Fate kept up with Golden Age Flash. Jay Garrick’s speed has been compared to the god Mercury.

### Durability

* Was able to tank and regenerate from being impaled.
* His body is pure force when he wills it meaning he cannot be hurt through physical means
* Has tanked hits from the Spectre, one of the most powerful beings in the DC Universe
* Doctor Fate tanked magic lightning as well as regular lighting
* Took a hit from Ultraman
* Took a hit from a mind-controlled Superman
* Survived an atomic burst
* Survived in a place where nothing is real, and reality is nothingness
* Got thrown through infinite dimensions by the Spectre

### Skill

* Has great knowledge of many different forms of magic and mystic artifacts.
* Is a founding member of the Justice Society
* Helped found Justice League International
* Helped defeated the Lords of Chaos several times
* Defeated Pre-Crisis Martian Manhunter and Superman
* Has defeated several gods including a Mayan God
* Transported people 400 years back in time.
* Has had 50,000 years of combat experience against the Lords of Chaos due to the Helmet of Fate containing the memories of the previous Fates
* One of the few people that tapped into the power of creation. The explosion was so great that it could be felt across the multiverse.
* Is the most powerful sorcerer in the DC Universe
* Stopped a Lord of Order & a Lord of Chaos simultaneously.
* Fought the Spectre (one of DC’s most powerful characters) several times. One time the Spectre had to go full-out in order to defeat Nabu.
* Owned Pre-Crisis Superman
* Defeated Ynar and Vandaemon to save the multiverse through Kent fusing with his Wife to become Triumvirate Fate. Keep in mind that both Ynar and Vandaemon were powerful enough enough to disrupt the multiverse and threaten the balance that allowed it to exist.

## Weaknesses

* **Separation From Helmet:** Although Kent Nelson is an accomplished magician and crime fighter, without his helm he is significantly weakened.
* His invulnerability does not protect him against gas-attacks.
* **Magic Drain:** After long mystical battles or casting powerful spells, Fate's power would be depleted and needs to restore his mystical energy.
* In the early days, Doctor Fate would be invulnerable to almost everything except gas of any kind or he could also be completely paralyzed if he was deprived from air to breathe.
* **Equipment Dependence:** While Fate is an incredibly powerful sorcerer, all of his magical power comes from his equipment, particularly his helmet, and he will lose a lot of his power if he loses any of his gear.
* **Humanity:** At the very end of the day is still human and as such is weak to poisonous gases and suffocation.
