Exodus (comics) - Powers and Abilities

Powers and Abilities

Exodus is one of the most powerful mutants. He possesses vast superhuman powers, including telepathy, telekinesis, and teleportation, as well as superhuman durability and healing. His high power levels may be a result of tampering by Apocalypse.

His telepathic abilities have at times matched those of Professor X, Rachel Grey, Emma Frost and X-Man. Exodus has also used mind control to command a dozen X-Men to immediately fall asleep.

Exodus is able to use his telekinetic abilities to lift heavy objects, generate highly durable force fields around him, project damaging blasts and disassemble and reassemble complex technological devices. The Hulk and Apocalypse have been able to withstand his telekinetic attacks. He also uses this ability to allow himself and fellow Acolytes to affect a form of flight. His telekinesis has sufficient fine control that he could perfectly reform Charles Xavier after Xavier's brain and skull were obliterated.

Exodus is a teleporter of great range. He has used this ability to transport himself and others across the planet and regularly transported Acolytes between Earth and the orbiting space station Avalon.

Exodus exhibits superhuman durability and taken multiple blows and cuts which would shred an ordinary human including blows from Cannonball and Rogue (using Gladiator's strength), gunfire from Hope, detonation from Gamit, and stabbing from Wolverine's claws.

Exodus has also stated that he can heal and also bring the dead back to life. He appears to have done so on several occasions bringing back Acolytes who had been killed as well as Professor X. He quickly healed himself after Dust entered his mouth in sand form and obliterated his organs. Exodus was on his feet and gathering Xavier's destroyed brains telekinetically and teleporting his team off of Muir Island only minutes after losing his internal organs to Dust.

Exodus is also either immortal or extremely long-lived.

Once, when severely weakened, he acted as a "psionic vampire", absorbing and stealing psionic energy from those around him and using it to his own advantage to re-energize himself.

In the presence of the loyal Acolytes his powers have appeared to be greatly amplified. He showed himself capable of simultaneously:

  1. Amplifying Genoshan mutates' hatred of humans
  2. Crushing Genosha via a massive force field
  3. Immobilizing Quicksilver, the Scarlet Witch, Crystal and Jean Grey in another force field
  4. Mentally resisting Professor X's telepathic control
  5. Protecting himself from physical attacks
  6. Dealing out damage to both the X-Men and the Avengers

Exodus has also been shown able to counter at least one form of reality manipulation and his powers are proved too great to be absorbed by Rogue in their entirety, which let her to pick just one.

Famous quotes containing the words powers and/or abilities:

    Everyone confesses in the abstract that exertion which brings out all the powers of body and mind is the best thing for us all; but practically most people do all they can to get rid of it, and as a general rule nobody does much more than circumstances drive them to do.
    Harriet Beecher Stowe (1811–1896)

    At twenty you have many desires which hide the truth, but beyond forty there are only real and fragile truths—your abilities and your failings.
    Gérard Depardieu (b. 1948)
