### Abilities

* **Leadership**: Kenan leads the Justice League of China.[13]

### Weaknesses

* **Power Instability** ***(Formerly)***: So far Kenan has only learned to activate his powers one at a time and cannot use them simultaneously. Furthermore, by losing his focus, the level of his abilities tend to fluctuate. Due to synchronizing with a mystical artifact known as the Red Jade Dragon, Kenan was finally able to rid himself of these limitations.
* **Vulnerability to Kryptonite**: Like Kryptonians, Kenan is weakened by Kryptonite. However, exposure is non-lethal since he is basically not a real kryptonian.[12]
