Marius/Powers and Abilities

Powers[]

Evolved Lycan Physiology: As a Lycan, Marius possesses the standard abilities of his species including superhuman strength, endurance and regenerative capabilities. His senses are similarly heightened to that of a canine even while in human form. His age and generation are currently unknown. Like all Lycans, his abilities are at their peak while in his transformed form, affording him strength and ferocity above that of younger Vampires and those of his own generation.
- Superhuman Strength: Marius is strong enough to grab, throw and kill weaker Immortals with single moves and attacks. He seems powerful enough to challenge even Selene, an aged Enhanced Vampire, though her speed and strength are superior to his at full exertion while he is in human form. In his Lycan form they are evenly matched though he probably still had the edge in strength. He was able to deal severe blows to Selene in hand-to-hand combat even in his human form and throw her through a castle wall.
- Accelerated Healing: Like all benefactors of the Immortal variants, Marius' Lycanthropy affords him an accelerated healing factor allowing his cells to replicate and repair his injuries at preternatural speeds. Wounds from most generic lethal weaponry, even silver bullets, heal in seconds without causing him any debilitating or lasting discomfort unless they have struck a vital organ. Similar to Lucian, Marius has shown the ability to expel foreign objects from his body through the force of his healing factor combined with concentration. Unlike Lucian, he seems to have honed this power to utilize it even during the heat of combat.
- Superhuman Durability: Marius's regenerative capabilities combined with his enhanced Lycan physiology afford him a high resistance to the debilitating pain of his injuries. Bullets can cause him to flinch but will neither traumatize nor overly hinder his physical faculties. The same is true for bladed weapons, which he can remove from his body manually or expel them through his concentrated healing process. Like all Lycans, Marius possesses stronger muscle and bone tissue sufficient enough to fall from great heights and land on his feet unharmed as well as offering limited resistance to blunt trauma. His durability increases while in his bestial form.
- Superhuman Speed: Marius' speed is similarly enhanced, through to a noticeably less refined degree as that of a vampire as Lycans generally cannot move as fast while in human form. His reflexes are equally accelerated, allowing him to parry attacks even from Selene. His speed is at its apex while in his Lycan form; sufficient to cover several yards in mere seconds while running on all-fours and outrace most road vehicles at full physical exertion. However, after Selene underwent the Sacred ritual of the Nordic Coven, she proved to have a far superior running speed, escaping hand-to-hand combat with Marius so quickly that he was unable to observe her departure.
