Hector Hall - Powers and Abilities

Powers and Abilities

  • As the Silver Scarab, Hector wore a suit made of Nth metal. This metal was developed by his father, Carter Hall, and improved upon by Hector. The suit enabled him to fly in space, and project solar-powered ray blasts. Without his suit he has super strength and invulnerability.
  • As Sandman, Hector had extraordinary strength, the power of flight, and lived in a place called “The Dream Stream,” which enabled him to see other people's dreams and he could project himself into the real world for one hour every twenty-four hours, and could travel through “The Dream Stream” almost immediately from anywhere in the real world to any other place during that one hour.
  • As Dr. Fate, Hector possessed a wide variety of powers. In general, he could fly, was resistant to damage, and had greater-than-human strength. Hall was able to "speak" with Nabu, the previous Doctors Fate, Kid Eternity, and Lyta through the helmet of Nabu, which gave him access to a wide variety of spells. He was susceptible to toxins in the air, however.

At his most potent, Fate is an accomplished sorcerer, able to match most other wizards in the DC Universe, but not as powerful as true extra-human beings such as the Spectre. Fate has been observed throwing bolts of mystical energy, crafting solid objects out of energy, and transforming objects into other kinds of matter. The full limits of his magical skills are unknown.

Famous quotes containing the words powers and/or abilities:

    To receive applause for works which do not demand all our powers hinders our advance towards a perfecting of our spirit. It usually means that thereafter we stand still.
    —G.C. (Georg Christoph)

    We should spend less time ranking children and more time helping them to identify their natural competencies and gifts and cultivate these. There are hundreds and hundreds of ways to succeed and many, many different abilities that will help you get there.
    Howard Gardner (20th century)
