~ Maegor Stark ~ Maegor Stark incarnates himself into the Asoiaf universe after traveling through the omniversal void for an unknown amount of time. Previously a former mercenary killed in a brutal mission, who had somehow gotten his soul combined with a crystallized essence shard of the avatar of Oblivion, the Chaos King, Amatsu-Mikaboshi and inherited his power. After that he awakens in the Omniversal Void between all universes, fictional or otherwise with an insatiable hunger and infinite possibilities ahead of him. ~

~ Power's inherited from Amatsu-Mikaboshi ~ Nigh-Omnipotence: Amatsu-Mikaboshi possesses vast supernatural power, which is apparently inherent within him. He has employed powers of flight, teleportation, the projection of mystical energy as force blasts, invisibility, matter manipulation, image projection and the creation of inter-dimensional nexus points, among other feats. His power is to such an extent that he can control numerous minor demons, as well as animating and manipulating corpses en masse at will; moreover, even the Amatsu-Kami themselves appear wary and fearful of Amatsu-Mikaboshi whom they consider their primal foe, especially as he himself has slaughtered much of their pantheon. Amatsu-Mikaboshi was able to slay even formidable alien deities, having destroyed the Demogorge (an entity who devoured the Elder Gods themselves) with relatively little effort, as well as crippling and slaying Skyfathers such as Zeus by tearing out his heart in seconds.

Dark Magic: Amatsu-Mikaboshi has the high ability to wield some form of potent Japanese dark magic, a brand of sorcery that seems especially effective against the Olympian gods. He can use this mystical energy for a variety of effects, among which are his ability to alter his form and shape; he also often takes on a female form in order to appear harmless.

Shadow Copies: Amatsu-Mikaboshi can create "shadow copies" of himself that are capable of avoiding detection by high-level dark magical entities, such as Nightmare in the latter's own realm, the Dream Dimension.

Shapeshifting: Amatsu-Mikaboshi apparently exists as a single golden eye characterized by a slit-like iris. The eye is surrounded by an amorphous mass of dark energy, which Amatsu-Mikaboshi can form into tangible objects of virtually any form he can imagine, such as whip-like tentacles or a humanoid body. He can reshape his limbs into razor-sharp blades, and assume the form of a fire-breathing serpent, which Apollo's fire was unable to affect and which was able to retaliate with a blast of fire powerful enough to harm and strike down even the Olympian Sun god. He can also assume a comet-like appearance (with his eye serving as the comet's nucleus) and propel himself at incredible speeds.

The Lord of Death: As the conqueror of Yomi, the Japanese Underworld of the Amatsu-Kami, Amatsu-Mikaboshi also has several powers enabling him to capture and detain the astral bodies (sheaths of the soul) of recently deceased human beings; on at least one instance, Amatsu-Mikaboshi has been shown capable of releasing a dead mortal's soul back into the realm of the living. Amatsu-Mikaboshi does not have jurisdiction over all of humanity's dead. It is not yet known what the prerequisite conditions are for him to manipulate a human soul, nor are the precise means by which he accomplishes the feat yet known. Apparently, these conditions require that the human being in question willingly submit to Amatsu-Mikaboshi's will. It is not yet known how a human being may free himself from bondage to Amatsu-Mikaboshi, nor is it revealed whether or not Amatsu-Mikaboshi "feeds" on the psychic energies as other demons do. His army contains many Netherworld denizens, mostly oni and shinma demons.

Killing Resurrection: Amatsu-Mikaboshi is able to seize control over other beings by killing them and bringing them back to life. He has taken control of thousands of alien gods, such as the gods of the Skrulls, and using them to tear through worlds and realities to eliminate the gods of countless other extraterrestrial civilizations and divine pantheons, such as the gods of the Shi'ar and the gods of Zenn-La.

Power Copying: After killing Nightmare, Amatsu-Mikaboshi absorbed his powers, and the gods stated that everything he destroyed became a part of him. After killing Athena, he absorbed her wisdom and used it to destroy the Multiverse.

Superhuman Strength: Amatsu-Mikaboshi's physical strength, at least in his main incarnation, is considerably lesser to that of Zeus or Izanagi, and is roughly equal to that of the average Amatsu-Kami, being able to lift 20 tons.

Superhuman Durability: Amatsu-Mikaboshi possesses vast physical resistance to damage and is immune to most diseases.

Superhuman Reflexes: Amatsu-Mikaboshi possesses extremely quick reflexes.

Immortality: Amatsu-Mikaboshi is immortal and his life force cannot be terminated by conventional means.

Regenerative Healing Factor: While he can be wounded in battle, Amatsu-Mikaboshi possesses incredible recuperative abilities and only an injury capable of dispersing a major portion of his body molecules could kill him.

Genius Intelligence

~ Devoured Characters & Abilities ~

1 ~ Alucard, Adrian Fahrenheit Tepes ~ Dark Magic: Although Alucard can more than hold his own physically, it is magically where he is truly dangerous. Like his father, Alucard can use many types of dark magic, it can be said that his powers is at least ½ of what Dracula's is, since Dracula trained him personally. Alucard mastered most of Dracula's own attacks, such as Hellfire, Dark Metamorphosis, Tetra Spirit and Soul Steal. He can also use his dark magic to alter his physical appearance, which is implied to be how he was able to assume the identity of Genya Arikado.

Shapeshifting: Alucard can shapeshift into a wolf, bat or mist to get to certain areas. He is also invulnerable for a short frame in the middle of the transformation process. With the aid of some relics, Alucard can enhance his shapeshifting; his Wolf form can run faster than a bullet, his Form of Mist can become a Poison Cloud, and his Bat form can fire fireballs and also a destructive sonar. He also could assume a giant version of himself, which was demonstrated when he fought against Trevor Belmont, Grant Danasty and Sypha Belnades in Dracula's Curse. It is speculated that Alucard, like Dracula, has a "final form" that he can transform into, but he refuses to use it as he does not want to be like Dracula in any way; this is supported by the fact that at random, Alucard will turn into a massive gargoyle statue when petrified, which is impervious to damage; this may be his "final form". However, if this is true, there is no reliable way to use the form in-game.

Speed: He can run faster than a bullet both in his human and wolf form.

Strength: Like most vampires, Alucard possesses strength far beyond a normal human.

Summoning: Alucard can summon many creatures via Relic Cards, such as an assisting fairy, an elemental spear-wielding demon, a fireball-shooting bat, a soul-stealing ghost or a powerful sword.

Swordsman skills: Alucard mastered a variety of weapons, but none as he mastered his mother's sword. Seeing as the sword is a family heirloom, Lisa could have come from a lineage of sword masters or knights. He also inherited the Alucard Shield which improves defense against all attacks, the Alucard Mail which improves Fire, Ice and Thunder elemental defense, and the Dragon Helm which scares enemies and lowers their defenses. With the Twilight Cloak, inherited from his father, Alucard increases defense and reduces flinching.

Superhuman senses: Due to his vampire heritage, his sense of smell is very keen, being able to discern even a person's heritage and clan connection just from the scent of their blood. This is best demonstrated when first meeting Richter Belmont in Dracula's castle, where he deduced the latter's status as a Belmont just from his blood's scent.

2 ~ Sung Jinwoo, the Shadow Monarch ~

Immeasurable Strength: Jinwoo possesses tremendous amounts of physical strength. Even before obtaining his true power, he was strong enough to critically damage the Statue of God with just a few punches to its face and beat Thomas Andre, one of the five National Level Hunters, to the brink of death with just his bare hands. Upon being revived by Ashborn and receiving the full extent of the Shadow Monarch's powers, Jinwoo's strength was increased to the point that he was able to effortlessly repel Sillad's attacks with one hand, kill Rakan in just four blows, and hold his own against Antares, the strongest and oldest of the nine Monarchs, in battle. After spending 27 years waging war against the Monarchs in the revised timeline, Jinwoo has appeared to have grown even more powerful than before, as shown by how he was able to kill Antares completely by himself instead of having to rely on the Rulers for support.

Immeasurable Speed: Jinwoo is unfathomably fast and can move at speeds so great that most opponents are unable to track his movements. As a testament to this, he was agile enough to keep up with Sillad's attacks during their second confrontation and upon obtaining his true power, was able to strike at Rakan with such speed that the latter didn't even realize that he'd been attacked until after Jinwoo cut off one of his legs.

Immense Durability: Jinwoo is incredibly resilient to physical damage. He was virtually unharmed when the Ant King punched him in the face, only sustaining a small cut on his lip, and was physically unscathed after Baran smashed him into the ground with great force.

Combat Mastery: Jinwoo is a master of melee-based combat and his fighting skills are so refined that he can hold his own against enemies with far more combat experience than he does with little trouble. This was first demonstrated during his battle with Kandiaru in the Double Dungeon; despite the fact that his opponent had been alive for hundreds of years and fought against numerous opponents in his time, Jinwoo was still able to match him in battle and eventually overpower him altogether. Later on, Jinwoo was also able to keep up and defend from Sillad's attacks, despite the fact that the latter had his Spiritual Body Manifestation activated and eons of fighting experience under his belt, and probably would've been able to land a killing blow had Rakan not ambushed him from behind.

Agelessness: As an effect of having inherited Ashborn's powers, Jinwoo no longer ages naturally and has to biologically alter his body to look the age he wants. As a result, by the end of the series, he only appears to be in his thirties when he has actually been alive for over 80 years.

Accelerated Development: Jinwoo's most astonishing ability is his explosive growth rate, a power unlike any other in the world. Not only does he grow stronger with every battle, but he also receives a massive boost in strength with each victory that he achieves. As a result of this, it only took him a few months of intensive training with the System to become one of the strongest hunters in Asia.

Umbrakinesis: Jinwoo possesses absolute control over shadows and darkness, and can reshape them into any form he desires, as displayed when he created a layer of black armor made of shadows onto his body.

Memory Manipulation: Jinwoo can manipulate the memories of other humans to a certain extent by making physical contact with them. So far, he has been shown to be able to erase certain memories from their minds, grant them their memories of the original timeline, and allow them to see into his own memories, as he did with Woo Jinchul to inform him of the existence of the Rulers and the Monarchs.

Hypnosis: Jinwoo can hypnotize people into following the orders that he gives them by snapping his fingers, as displayed when he hypnotized Kim Chul into letting him go and becoming a better person when they encountered each other in the new timeline. However, since he has only ever been shown using this ability once, the limitations to it remain unknown.

Gate Creation: Jinwoo can open gates to other worlds. These gates are black and purple in color, and he can open numerous gates at the same time.

Unlimited Inventory: Jinwoo can store an unlimited number of items in his shadow and extract any number of those items for his own use at any point in time.

Monster Language Fluency: Jinwoo can speak and understand monster tongue, which he uses to communicate with his shadow soldiers and the enemy monsters that he encounters in battle.

Indomitable Will: Due to his loving relationship with his family and his intense drive to become strong for their sake, Jinwoo has an extraordinary level of willpower. He has exemplified this trait even before he became the Player of the System, as shown by how he spent four years going on dungeon raids to financially support both his sister and his mother even though he nearly died on almost every raid he ever went on. Jinwoo's resolve to continuously put his life as risk for the welfare of his family was also ultimately the reason why Ashborn selected him as his successor, as he knew that Jinwoo would never quit fighting for his family no matter how high the odds were stacked against him.

Passive Skills

Will To Recover: Jinwoo can regenerate from any kind of damage done to his body with the exception of fatal wounds, such as being stabbed through the heart. This also includes lost limbs, as shown by how Jinwoo was able to completely regenerate his right leg after he lost it during the first Double Dungeon Incident.

Longevity: Jinwoo is immune to all diseases, poisons, and any abilities that can be harmful to his status. His regeneration speed is also far faster than a normal human's and increases exponentially when he sleeps.

Detoxification: Jinwoo's body is able to automatically cleanse itself of any poisons once they are detected in his bloodstream. Unfortunately, alcohol is considered to be a poison and as a result, Jinwoo can't get drunk.

Tenacity: If Jinwoo's health drops below 30% in battle, any further damage that he receives will be reduced by 50% in order to keep him alive.

Advanced Dagger Techniques: If Jinwoo uses his daggers in battle, any damage he inflicts on his opponent will be increased by 33%.

Active Skills

Stealth: Jinwoo can camouflage with his surroundings and hide all traces of his presence, essentially turning himself both physically and magically invisible.

Bloodlust: Jinwoo can magically intimidate an enemy combatant into submission, inducing intense fear into those who are targeted by this technique and decreasing their stats by 50%. It can also be used on multiple opponents at once.

Quicksilver: Jinwoo can increase his speed by 30% for a short period of time.

Mutilation: Jinwoo aims for a target's vital points before slashing away at them with his daggers, inflicting critical damage.

Dagger Rush: Jinwoo barrages a target with his daggers from all directions.

Ruler's Authority: Jinwoo can move and control objects via telekinesis. He can also use this skill on the air around him, enabling him to move and dodge attacks while airborne.

Dragon's Fear: Jinwoo releases a mana-infused shout from his soul, driving anyone weaker than him into a state of intense despair and panic.

Job Skills

Shadow Extraction: Jinwoo can extract shadows from the corpses of his enemies and add them into his army.

Shadow Preservation: Jinwoo can preserve his shadows in storage and monitor them by perceiving their senses.

Shadow Exchange: Jinwoo can use shadows as portals to travel vast distances in an instant.

Monarch's Domain: Jinwoo can increase the strength of all active shadow soldiers by 50% in battle.

3 ~ Nolan 'Omni-Man' Grayson ~

Powers

Viltrumite Physiology: As a Viltrumite, Nolan possesses highly advanced genetics that grant him a wide range of superhuman abilities typical of his species. Like all Viltrumites, his physical capabilities gradually improve over time through age, experience, and prolonged exposure to combat. Though surpassed by Thragg, his encounter with Conquest demonstrated that he operates on a comparable level to him, as the two clashed evenly without either securing a clear advantage, establishing him as one of the most powerful Viltrumites in history.

Decelerated Aging: Nolan possesses an exceptionally prolonged lifespan due to his biology, which causes him to age steadily grow slower over time. This decelerated aging allows him to maintain peak health, physical conditioning, and combat performance for thousands of years. Despite being nearly a thousand years old, he remains a robust individual who appears to be in his mid-40s and continues to perform at his peak.

Dominant Genes: Viltrumites genetics are incredibly potent and adaptive. Nolan, like others of his kind, can reproduce with a wide range of species, with his Viltrumite DNA overwhelmingly asserting itself in the offspring. As a result, the child will typically inherit predominantly Viltrumite traits, often appearing and functioning almost entirely as a Viltrumite. The more genetically compatible the mate's species is, the faster and more reliably the offspring will manifest the full range of Viltrumite abilities.

Flight: Due to a complex balancing system located in his inner ears, Nolan possesses the ability to levitate and propel himself in the air, able to alter his trajectory mid-flight and maneuver seamlessly through various environments at extreme speeds. His control enables effortless navigation through a wide range of settings and outer space.

Superhuman Strength: Nolan possesses immense physical strength, exceeding that of most Viltrumites. During his time on Earth, he was the most powerful being on the planet. Upon his initial arrival, Nolan effortlessly flew through a massive monster attacking a city. His might dwarfed the entire original Guardians of the Globe whom he defeated with brutal efficiency; he crushed Red Rush's head, evaded Martian Man's elasticity, killed Darkwing by slamming him, punched through Green Ghost's face, overpowered The Immortal and War Woman, and used War Woman's own mace to kill Aquarus. Even when restrained by Martian Man and attacked by the combined efforts of The Immortal and War Woman, Nolan broke free, ultimately killing Martian Man, decapitating The Immortal, and snapping War Woman's neck. When first training Mark, Nolan claimed to have once stopped an asteroid the size of Texas. Against the Flaxans, he decimated their forces mid-flight and, in their home dimension, destroyed multiple buildings while the killing Flaxan Leader, nearly reducing the planet to a wasteland. In his first encounter with Hail Mary, Nolan struggled to gain the upper hand, with Donald remarking that he had never seen him struggle like that. In a subsequent encounter, Hail Mary, enhanced due to GDA, temporarily overpowered and nearly killed him, even with Mark's assistance. Nolan eventually regained the upper hand during a rematch with the resurrected Immortal, punching through his body and ultimately dismembering him. When attacked by three ReAnimen sent by the GDA, one of which had previously dominated Mark, Nolan was initially overwhelmed by their relentless assault but eventually overcame and destroyed them. In battle with Mark, Nolan displayed overwhelming superiority, tossing his son across continents, using his body to slice a moving subway in half, and hurling Mark to Mount Everest, triggering an avalanche. He nearly killed Mark before choosing to stop despite his son's own high durability. Nolan's strength in space remained unmatched, allowing him to drift in vacuum unharmed and resist the gravitational force of a black hole. During the Battle of Thraxa, which involved three Viltrumites, Nolan fought Lucan in a brief but intense exchange. He ultimately gained the upper hand, slashing Lucan's abdomen and impaling him. He then clashed with Vidor and Thula, overpowering and killing Vidor, as well as breaking Thula's jaw. At the Viltrumite prison, Nolan broke free from special restraints designed to hold powerful Viltrumites and helped coordinate a double punch with Allen to obliterate a Viltrumite soldier's head. During a mission to the Savage Planet, he proved able to fend off the Rognarr, feral creatures with strength exceeding that of most Viltrumites. However, his attacks had limited effect, as they quickly recovered and continued pressing him, even with Allen's assistance, showing their physical superiority even while not at full strength. His encounter with Conquest further demonstrated that he operates on a comparable level, as the two clashed evenly without either securing a clear advantage. Afterwards, he overpowered Lucan with Oliver's assistance and later struck away Kradd. During the Attack on Talescria, Nolan effortlessly overpowered Kregg. Later, during the Viltrum's Cataclysm, despite Anissa's superior speed, Nolan proved physically stronger, managing to overpower her at times. However, against Thragg, his strength proved ineffective. He was consistently overpowered in each encounter, although he did manage to land a punch on a distracted Thragg, briefly knocking him away from Mark, though it was strong enough to draw blood from Thragg but despite this it didn't caused no significant damage. With the aid of Mark, Thaedus, and Space Racer's Infinity Ray, Nolan participated in the coordinated effort that destabilised and ultimately destroyed Viltrum. The combined impact of the Viltrumites, alongside the effects of the Infinity Ray, allowed them to penetrate and collapse the planet's structure.

Nigh-Invulnerability: Nolan possesses an extraordinary degree of durability, able to withstand devastating physical trauma, extreme environments, and high-powered weaponry with minimal lasting damage. During his battle with the original Guardians of the Globe, he endured significant injuries, particularly from the Immortal and War Woman, yet fully recovered within days. After rescuing Invincible from the Flaxans, Nolan was bombarded by their weaponry but emerged unharmed. His resilience was further demonstrated during his decades-long campaign in the Flaxan Dimension, where he devastated their civilization without showing signs of physical deterioration upon returning. He also survived Donald's suicide bombing attempt without injury and withstood a direct blast from Cecil's Y's Blaster, which only irritated him rather than causing damage. Nolan's durability was further demonstrated when the GDA deployed the Hammer, an orbital superweapon. The initial strike caused massive environmental destruction, yet Nolan remained unharmed. A second, more focused blast resulted in only a minor nosebleed before he destroyed the weapon In his rematch with the resurrected Immortal, Nolan sustained only minor injuries and remained largely unaffected, excluding ocular damage that reduced his eyes to temporary redness, even when the Immortal attempted to gouge out his eyes. When ambushed by three ReAnimen, he initially withstood their attacks without injury before ultimately destroying them. During his battle in Chicago, Nolan proved largely unfazed by the majority of Invincible's attacks prior to his G.D.A. training, only briefly reacting when Mark's strength increased under extreme emotional. Nolan is also capable of surviving the vacuum of space and extreme cosmic conditions without harm, including exposure to the gravitational forces of a black hole, which did not visibly injure him. During the Battle of Thraxa, he sustained only minor injuries from Lucan and Vidor, though he was temporarily incapacitated after a surprise attack from a recovering Lucan. At the Viltrumite prison, Nolan's durability was pushed to its limits as he was severely beaten by two Viltrumite soldiers during his execution, leaving him near death. Nevertheless, he recovered quickly enough to assist Allen in killing the remaining soldier with a combined final strike. During Viltrum's Cataclysm, Nolan withstood multiple blows from Thragg without sustaining significant injury. He was struck with immense force, sent crashing down to Viltrum and then back into space, yet emerged largely unharmed. Following the destruction of Viltrum, he also remained unscathed. However, once Thragg became serious, Nolan's durability reached its limits. Thragg's relentless blows began to inflict visible damage, breaking his forearm and ultimately culminating in him being impaled through the abdomen.

Superhuman Speed: Nolan possesses extraordinary speed, capable of traversing vast distances in short periods and reacting at velocities far beyond humans and most super-powered beings. His reflexes and combat reaction time are equally as enhanced, allowing him to track and engage high-speed opponents with precision. Even powerful beings like the Immortal and Invincible (prior to his G.D.A. training) are noticeably slower than him. Notably, he was able to react to and catch Red Rush, a renowned speedster, before he could escape. In the Flaxan Dimension, he moved at speeds comparable to a small meteor, repeatedly striking the planet's atmosphere and surface with enough force to cause large-scale destruction over time, with the cumulative impact of his movements contributing to the collapse of their civilization. He has also demonstrated rapid short-range movement, such as catching Cecil's tie before teleportation, and moving so quickly after defeating the ReAnimen that he vanished from sight, leaving only displaced dust behind. During his battle with Invincible, Nolan consistently outpaced him, effortlessly dodging, countering, and striking faster than Mark could react. His speed extends beyond Earth's atmosphere, allowing him to travel through space at extreme velocities and reach distant planets such as Thraxa. However, during Viltrum's Cataclysm, his speed proved inferior to Anissa's, as he was at times unable to react to her superior movement and responsiveness.

Regenerative Healing Factor: Nolan possesses an exceptional healing factor, allowing him to recover from injuries at a remarkable rate. His regenerative capabilities enable him to repair broken bones, torn muscles, and damaged organs, as well as recover from severe trauma with minimal lasting effects. However, his healing factor does not allow him to regrow lost limbs or completely restore missing anatomy, although it can regenerate damaged tissue and even replace lost teeth. The recovery rate depends on the severity of the injury; minor wounds may heal within minutes to days, while more severe injuries can take weeks or months to fully recover from. Even in his youth, Nolan possessed an exceptionally resilient immune system, making him one of the very few Viltrumites to survive and recover from the Scourge Virus. After his brutal battle with the original Guardians of the Globe, Nolan, despite being heavily bloodied and seriously injured, recovered to full health within a few days. He later endured severe injuries inflicted by two Viltrumite Executioners and once again healed in a relatively short period of time. Even after being impaled through the abdomen by Thragg and suffering a broken forearm, Nolan recovered within approximately two weeks. Additionally, he is virtually immune to most illnesses and contaminants, making him highly resistant to various environmental and biological threats.

Self-Sustenance: Viltrumites possess an extraordinary ability to go without food for extended periods, though the exact duration is not well documented. As a result, their physical needs are significantly reduced, allowing them to function effectively without regular nourishment. Nolan, like other Viltrumites, experiences minimal requirements for sustenance, enabling him to endure long periods without food without any significant decline in health or vitality. His resilience was further demonstrated when he spent decades in the Flaxan Dimension, waging a solo campaign that devastated their cities with no breaks and yet no apparent physical deterioration upon return.

Superhuman Lung Capacity: Nolan possesses extraordinary lung capacity, allowing him to survive without air for extended periods. This ability enables him to operate unhindered in oxygen-deprived environments, such as the vacuum of space without protection.

Superhuman Senses: Nolan possesses extraordinary sensory abilities, far exceeding human limitations. His auditory perception allows him to hear sounds from great distances with incredible clarity, enabling him to detect even the faintest noises and selectively ignore irrelevant ones. His vision is equally advanced, providing him with the ability to see distant objects with the same sharpness and detail as though they were right in front of him. Additionally, his heightened equilibrium and balance grant him exceptional poise and stability, allowing him to maintain control and coordination in even the most difficult situations.

Superhuman Stamina: Nolan possesses extraordinary physical stamina, allowing him to fight for prolonged periods without tiring. Like all Viltrumites, his physiology is highly resistant to fatigue and injury, enabling him to remain combat-effective even after sustaining significant damage. He has demonstrated this during his battle with the original Guardians of the Globe, where he continued fighting despite serious injuries and only collapsed after defeating them, later recovering with assistance from the GDA. He also showed no signs of fatigue while singlehandedly decimating the Flaxan armies and causing widespread destruction across their planet. Nolan has withstood being briefly overpowered by three ReAnimen before quickly regaining control, and he showed minimal lasting effect after being struck by the Hammer superweapon. Similarly, Cecil's advanced energy weapon had little lasting impact on him. Against the resurrected Immortal, Nolan sustained only minor injuries, including minor bleeding and eye irritation, but remained fully capable in combat and ultimately defeated him. During the Battle of Thraxa, Nolan fought continuously without visible exhaustion, defeating Lucan and Vidor before being incapacitated by a surprise attack that temporarily paralysed him. Even while imprisoned aboard a Viltrumite ship and severely weakened, Nolan was able to continue fighting, trading blows with a Viltrumite Executioner before eventually being overwhelmed. He later recovered quickly enough to rejoin the fight, assisting Allen the Alien in delivering a combined attack that defeated the Executioner. Despite being impaled through the abdomen by Thragg, Nolan survived.

Abilities

Master Combatant: While Nolan often relies on his overwhelming Viltrumite physiology, he is also an exceptionally skilled and disciplined warrior, with centuries of combat experience. His fighting style is defined by efficiency, precision, and lethal intent, prioritising swift, decisive kills over prolonged engagements. Rather than engaging in drawn-out exchanges, Nolan targets vital areas such as the head and internal organs, often ending battles within moments. He demonstrates strong tactical awareness, quickly identifying and eliminating the most immediate threats, as seen in his systematic dismantling of the original Guardians of the Globe, where he adapted to each member's abilities and killed them one by one despite their coordinated assault. Nolan also excels in aerial and three-dimensional combat, using speed, momentum, and positioning to overwhelm opponents and turn movement itself into a weapon. During the Battle of Thraxa, Nolan further showcased his combat proficiency against multiple Viltrumites; Following an initially intense exchange, he gained the upper hand over Lucan, slashing open his abdomen and impaling him. He then engaged Vidor and Thula, overpowering and killing Vidor while severely injuring Thula, breaking her jaw. Even when outnumbered, Nolan's experience and ruthless efficiency allow him to quickly shift the tide of battle in his favour. While typically ruthless, Nolan is capable of exercising restraint when necessary, adjusting his approach depending on his objective. This is evident in his battle with his son, where he held back initially and blended combat with instruction, demonstrating his ability to control the intensity of his attacks rather than immediately resorting to lethal force.

Master Manipulator: Nolan is a highly charismatic speaker who can deliver rousing speeches to the public while concealing his true intentions and deceitful actions. For decades, he managed to convince everyone on Earth, including the experienced and incredibly intelligent Cecil Stedman, the head of a government defense agency, that he was a good person. He misled his wife, Debbie, and his son, Mark, into believing that his purpose on Earth was purely honorable.

Intimidation: Viltrumites are known to be quite a very intimidating presence to anyone who dealt with their vile and ruthless nature. When Nolan's true colors were exposed to the people of Earth, everyone was shown to be shaken up by his presence, even Debbie after she kicked him out. Even amongst other Viltrumites, Nolan is highly respected, with elite Viltrumites such as Conquest and Anissa speaking his name in high regard, and Kregg calling him one of the greatest Viltrumite warriors in their history. Other Viltrumites such as Lucan and Vidor refer to him as 'the great Nolan' due to his prowess and service to the Empire.

Indomitable Will: As noted by Allen the Alien, Viltrumites are known to be very relentless and they never give up on their missions. Nolan has spent his time on Earth to prepare the planet for Viltrum, no matter how many acts he needed to do to complete his mission. Although, Nolan's unbreakable will has limits such as being afraid of what he has done to his son, Mark, and almost had given up totally after regretting the trouble he caused on Earth. However, it drastically turned when the Thraxans and Allen the Alien gave him a chance to do what's right and stop the Viltrum Empire. Nolan also swore that he will keep his family safe at all costs.

Leadership: On Thraxa, the Thraxans enlisted Nolan as their monarch, which is emperor in Thraxan terms. Due to his longer life span and saving a an upper class family of Thraxans, one of whom was Andressa, who also became old enough to be their empress. During his brief stint as leadership, he ordered Nuolzot to bring forth his son Invincible to help against the eventual battle amongst the Viltrumites on Thraxa, and even managed to defeat the three invaders, although there were several casualties.
