Powers and Abilities
Mr. Sensitive was a mutant with a variety of powers. The most obvious aspects of his mutation were his purple skin and two antennae protruding from his forehead. He possessed superhuman enhanced senses and a radar-like detection ability from his antennae. He could sense vulnerability, whether emotional or physical, and possessed a corresponding superhuman reflex/reaction rate and level of coordination. If exposed to too much external stimuli, his senses would overload and he would have a seizure. Guy relied on meditation to help alleviate the constant pain (for even a fine mist felt like needles stabbing his skin) until Professor X developed a special suit and ointment to dull his senses and allow him to live a normal life.
Having spent time training in Asia learning various martial arts, Mr. Sensitive was also an extremely capable hand-to-hand fighter. He was noticeably able to strike at "nerve points" with superhuman accuracy, paralysing enemies or putting them to sleep, and was also able to levitate, which was explained as an extremely difficult martial arts skill he actually mastered due to his perfect control over his own senses.

“A multitude of causes unknown to former times are now acting with a combined force to blunt the discriminating powers of the mind, and unfitting it for all voluntary exertion to reduce it to a state of almost savage torpor.”
—William Wordsworth (1770–1850)
“Who can measure the advantages that would result if the magnificent abilities of these women could be devoted to the needs of government, society and home, instead of being consumed in the struggle to obtain their birthright of individual freedom? Until this be gained we can never know, we can not even prophesy the capacity and power of women for the uplifting of humanity.”
—Susan B. Anthony (1820–1906)
