Powers and Abilities
The Matrix from the Pocket Universe was a protoplasmic life-form and had a malleable genome, so she could assume any humanoid form of similar mass. Her primary power was telekinesis which she could use to move objects with her mind and enhance her strength, physical durability, and speed to superhuman levels. By levitating herself, she could fly at supersonic speeds. She could cloak herself (becoming both invisible and inaudible, even to Superman's super hearing). She could focus her psychokinesis into devastating force blasts, or extend a psionic barrier around others to shield them from harm. She could even use her psi-power to rearrange the molecular structure of fabrics, and alter clothing and costumes with her thoughts (an ability that enabled her to change her clothing when she changed shape, and turn a Kryptonian recovery suit into a new costume for Superman). However, she lost her shapeshifting powers and cloaking after the merge with Linda Danvers, as she now possessed the psychological boundaries of a human woman, having defined herself as Linda and Supergirl to give herself an 'alpha and omega'.

Famous quotes containing the words powers and/or abilities:
“The Federal Constitution has stood the test of more than a hundred years in supplying the powers that have been needed to make the Central Government as strong as it ought to be, and with this movement toward uniform legislation and agreements between the States I do not see why the Constitution may not serve our people always.”
—William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
“Your friends praise your abilities to the skies, submit to you in argument, and seem to have the greatest deference for you; but, though they may ask it, you never find them following your advice upon their own affairs; nor allowing you to manage your own, without thinking that you should follow theirs. Thus, in fact, they all think themselves wiser than you, whatever they may say.”
—William Lamb Melbourne, 2nd Viscount (1779–1848)
