Powers

Fear Energy Conduit:

Sinestress, after studying the power of Fear on others, has been able to access, absorb, and control the energy one can siphon off of others fear. Literally tapping into the Fear of others, she is able to harness this energy. which in most cases takes the form of yellow light, to affect and use the fundamental forces of the known universe, including electromagnetic energies such as gravity, radiation, heat, light, and powerful blasts of concussive force. All of this is due to her intense concentration on and natural affinity for dimensional energies commonly called magic. It is theorized that her studies into the magical link between elements lead her to discovering that Fear can become a manipulative power source. Now, along with her magical prowess, she is able to form this energy into fields of force, bound by her will. The limitations of such use are only those of her skill, knowledge and imagination.

Here are some of the uses she has been witnessed exhibiting:

Electromagnetic Scanning: Sinestress has a wide range of detection abilities based on her imagination. If she can conceive of it, she can probably detect it. Because of this new ability her sense of magical energy is diminished, meaning she has a more difficult time sensing other magic. Most normal electromagnetic phenomena are within her range, including radio, television, infrared, ultraviolet, and high frequency band communications. But, again, this science-based ability seems to hamper her ability to detect magic.

Emergency Beacon: Sinestress, in distress can use her power as an emergency beacon. The alert can be directed to anyone she has previously seduced and is in a neighboring sector.

Energy Absorption: Sinestress can absorb and store most other energies. What is unusual is that her absorption of normal energy cannot occur at the same time as her absorption of magical or life energy.

Energy Blasts: Sinestress can fire blasts of yellow energy or create weapons such as projectiles of them. She can project beams of force powered by her will. The strength of power is more an indication of the strength of her will.

Energy Constructs: Sinestress can form constructs of yellow energy transforming her thoughts into physical constructs through her mastery of Fear. Sinestress can create any particular items or construct that she can imagine as long as she has the mastery of Fear necessary to will it into existence. The constructs are made out of yellow energy, which is a tangible form of pure Fear, and they exist only as long as Sinestress is fueling it with her mastery of Fear. Items created by her are not indestructible and are only as powerful as the inspired Fear of Sinestress. The types of constructs usually reflects Sinestress mood.

Energy Twin: Sinestress can create an "energy twin" of herself that can travel at far greater speeds than her physical form. While the energy twin is active Sinestress remains motionless, her life force is needed to guide the energy twin. The energy twin cannot alter its surroundings, and may only be perceived by someone she has previously seduced as a yellow, ghostlike image. Any knowledge gained by the energy twin is transferred back to her physical form upon recontact with her body.

Environmental Playback: Sinestress can recreate a holographic environment based on her memory. She can observe events in a ghostlike state, but cannot alter the outcome of the playback. All objects in the playback will appear in the full spectrum of colors, regardless of her level of expertise creating simulacrum's. Her mind will automatically end the playback if outside interference warrants her undivided attention.

Fear Empowerment: Sinestress can derive great power from feeding on the residual Fear of those whom she is enmeshed in terrorizing, essentially by using her greatest weapon to provoke the abject terrors of a victim.

Flight: By the manipulation of anti-gravitons and directed molecular movement, Sinestress can fly at incredible speeds. In atmosphere, Sinestress has been known to fly as fast as Mach 10 by creating an aerodynamic envelope around her body. Towing others, usually within a bubble, her speed is limited to twice the speed of sound or 1,440 mph. In space, Sinestress's speed can be significantly greater and has been known to approach 80 % of lightspeed in normal space. Flight is possible at velocities exceeding light speed. In atmospheres, air friction is not a hindrance, since heat is either absorbed or reflected by the field.

Force Field: Sinestress can create various force fields of various sizes and shapes to protect herself and others around her. Sinestress creates a force field, protecting herself from the hazards of the void including filtration of stellar radiation and microscopic particulate matter which would ordinarily be fatal should the space debris strike her at high speeds. An atmosphere appropriate to her biology is created inside the force-field while body temperature is maintained and waste products are removed. Gravitational stresses which could cause injury are stabilized. Theoretically, Sinestress could use her force fields as a sole source of life support. The force field seems to be created instantaneously due to an instinctive reaction.

Instill Fear: Sinestress is unique in that her base of power, Fear, can be manipulated. An opponent's fears can be laid bare by delving into their minds. The power only works on the direct emotion of Fear. Depending on Sinestress's awareness of the fear of her opponent, her attacks and constructs will be stronger or weaker. This allows her to create the energy constructs of an opponent's worst nightmare. Also, once that fear is exposed, she can amplify the fear to the point of irrationality and true horror on the part of the victim and conversely empowering herself. This, above all her other abilities, is what allowed her to decimate her own people.

Invisibility & Light Refraction: Sinestress can render herself invisible by willing the light waves to bend around her form.

Mind Alteration: As her Fear-based powers are based on thought and will to operate, mind tampering is not impossible, the real difficulty lies in properly applying the power. There lies a risk of catastrophic damage to the mind should mistakes be made. Sinestress can use the power to erase portions of an individual's memories. She can also beam information from herself to another being.

Omnilingual: Sinestress can speak, understand, read and write in any language. It is a genetic ability of all Oansgardians.

Phasing: Sinestress can pass through certain solid objects, such as walls. Which objects that are not penetrable are not known, but it may depend upon the strength of her mastery of Fear and the density of the object's molecular structure.

Regenerative Healing Factor: It is possible for Sinestress to sustain an injury, despite her body's resistance. In such an event, Sinestress's superior metabolism enables her to heal injuries much faster and more extensively than a normal human would be capable of. However, she is unable to regenerate missing limbs or organs without the aid of powerful magical assistance, which, ironically, she cannot cast on herself.

Superhuman Agility: Sinestress's agility, balance, and bodily coordination are enhanced to levels beyond the natural physical limits of the finest human athlete.

Superhuman Durability: Like all Oansgardians, Sinestress's body is much more resistant to conventional physical injury than a human being. She can withstand great impacts, exposure to temperature extremes, and powerful energy blasts that would severely injure or kill a human being with no injury to herself.

Immortality: Like all Oansgardians, Sinestress does not age any more. Although she is several millennia old in age, Amora has the appearance and vitality of an Oansgardian woman in her prime. She is also immune to all known Earthly diseases and infections.

Superhuman Reflexes: Sinestress's reflexes are enhanced and are superior to those of the finest human athlete.

Superhuman Speed: Sinestress can run and move at speeds that are beyond the natural physical limits of the finest human athlete.

Superhuman Stamina: Sinestress's Oansgardian musculature is considerably more efficient than that of a human being. Her muscles produce considerably fewer fatigue toxins during physical activity than human muscles. At her peak, she can exert herself physically for about 24 hours before the buildup of fatigue toxins in her blood begins to impair her.

Superhuman Strength: Sinestress is superhumanly strong, possessing physical strength roughly average for an Oansgardian woman. At her peak, she is able to lift about 25 tons.

Superhumanly Dense Tissue: Sinestress's bodily tissues, like those of all Oansgardians, possesses roughly three times the density of human bodily tissues. This contributes somewhat to her superhuman strength, her durability, and her weight.

Wormholes & Spatial Warps: Sinestress has access to wormholes in space, enabling her to rapidly cut time and distance needed for transport. Even black holes can be navigated.

Sorcery:

Sinestress' magical powers are among the most powerful of all Oansgardians. Her strength and proficiency with magic rivals that of Mirage, Melltithio, and Spector. However, she is not even near that of Archimage. Sinestress' powers derive from two main sources: her innate capacity to manipulate ambient Oansgardian magical energy (which is actually the study of the connection between elements) honed through practice, and her acquired knowledge of spells and enchantments of Oansgardian origin, dating back to their first discovery of this connection.

While she had most of the following abilities before discovering the energy of Fear, and while there is some overlap between what she can do magically and with Fear, it seems that her magic can either boost her Fear-based abilities, or be used when she has no surrounding Fear to draw on. The following are just a sample of her magical abilities:

Astral Projection: Sinestress can project her astral form from her body. It is not affected by the laws of physics and can combat other astral beings. She can also simply project her voice.

Disguise/Illusions: Either through illusion or physical transformation, Sinestress can also alter her appearance, taking the shape of other humanoid beings, or change the appearance of her clothing. This is much more complex and detailed then her ability to bend light with her Fear-based powers.

Energy Projection: Sinestress can use her sorcery to generate powerful blasts of concussive force, heat, or pure magical eldritch blasts. She seems to only use this when her Fear-based Energy Blasts are not getting the job done.

Energy Shields: Sinestress can summon incredibly powerful force fields using her Fear-based. However, these shields seem to be incredibly weak against magic. As such, she has developed magical energy shields that have withstood blows from the likes of Ragnarök and Řęđtřoςςïtuςς, and even the force of a small nuclear bomb going off.

Flight: Sinestress can levitate and fly should she have no Fear to draw on.

Gold and Diamond Tears: Through her magic, Sinestress can turn her tears into gold or diamonds.

Life Force Absorption: Sinestress can absorb the life force of other beings to temporarily enhance her own powers. It appears that other magical users/beings must grant permission for her to absorb their life force. For non-sentient beings, she does not require consent to perform this act.

Mystical Senses: Sinestress can sense the presence of magical energies nearby, impending danger, and others' inner feelings of love.

Seduction: The main focus of Sinestress&aspos; powers has been the enhancement of her natural beauty and allure so that men, mortal or otherwise, are overwhelmed with desire for her. Her powers are so great she could even affect beings as powerful as Vanquisher, simply by speaking to him. She has enchanted her lips so that a single kiss is sufficient to make virtually any man a slave to her will, obedient to her every command, for about a week. Subsequent kisses enable her to enthrall someone's will indefinitely.

Spell Casting: Sinestress is an exceptionally powerful sorceress capable of casting complex spells. She once cursed the entire planet of Oansgard, causing it to rain blood across the entire planet and animate every corpse. Even Ordan, her father, seemed incapable of reversing it (although he cared little for it). She is also capable of casting spell's that slow down an opponent's reactions and cast a spell that prevented a small army from fighting.

Telekinesis: Sinestress has telekinetic powers, the limits of which are unknown.

Telepathy: Sinestress can read minds, project her thoughts onto others, exchange her mind with another, perform mind control, sense when a telepath is trying to read her or her allies thoughts, and shield her and others' minds from telepathic intrusions and attacks, which are so powerful that even Onyx, could not penetrate her defenses.

Teleportation: Sinestress can teleport within a single solar system, or across an entire sector of galactic space.

Time Disruption: Sinestress can manipulate time with a subtle spell. She can reverse time, so as to prevent events from ever happening. She can protect others from the power of this spell at will. Her control is not very refined or strong and her ability to reverse time only affects a few minutes at most. This ability may not be part of her magical abilities and more genetic as her brother, Halthor Ordanson, is Adept of Time.

Transmutation: Sinestress can turn men into trees or statues with a kiss, or spell.

Weaknesses

Potency: Sinestress's spells derive their potency from Oansgardian sources (such as power objects or entities) and thus are most potent when used on the planet of Oansgard itself. A prolonged absence from Oansgard tends to diminish her powers altogether, though they never fade completely. Although she has a superhuman physique, Sinestress has little to no experience in hand-to-hand combat, typically relying on minions to fight for her. Sinestress cannot access her spells with her hands bound and her mouth gagged. Previously cast spells like her enhanced aura of seduction, however, can continue to function. She was once able to seduce a Psaurion with her gaze alone while bound and gagged.
