~ The Beast to Cole MacGrath |
Summary
John White was an undercover agent working for the National Security Agency and was given the assignment to investigate the First Sons, along with Lucy Kuo and their inside associate, Sebastian Wolfe. Though he was nearly successful in his time undercover, he was ripped apart and pulled into a vortex during a freak accident with one of the First Sons' inventions, namely the Ray Sphere. However, as he was being ripped apart, John was somehow able to reach out to an unknown force, which felt as if it were trying to "escape" the Ray Sphere. The Ray Sphere essentially became apart of John and rebirthed him as "The Beast", a Conduit of immense power. Using his newfound powers, John made his way across the world to save as many as he could from the Plague by creating Conduits at the cost of humans. Cole MacGrath can choose to either side with John to save the Conduits, ultimately inheriting his powers and becoming The Beast himself. Or side against him by using the RFI to cure the Plague and save humanity, at the cost of killing 90% of all Conduits, including himself.
Powers and Stats
Tier: At least High 7-A | At least High 6-A
Key: Cole's Timeline | Kessler's Timeline
Name: John White, The Beast, The Destroyer
Origin: InFAMOUS
Gender: Male
Age: Mid-Late 30's
Classification: Human Conduit fused with the Ray Sphere, Former NSA Agent
Powers and Abilities:
- Limited Reactive Evolution (By stressing his body by using his powers in different ways, he can either gain new abilities or improve upon his current ones[2])
- Self-Sustenance (Type 1, 2 and 3 - Doesn't possess any form of internal organs required for respiration, given his entire physiology is constructed from rock, which in turn means he doesn't require any form of sustenance nor sleep to survive[2])
- Flight (Ability - While John is in his pseudo black hole form he can freely move around to absorb and deconstruct more matter to regenerate himself with[2])
- Extrasensory Perception, Enhanced Senses and Information Analysis (X-Ray Vision, Micro Vision and Chemo Vision - Could sense the energy created by the RFI, even when he was over a thousand miles away from New Marais,[2] he also possesses the same ability of Cole MacGrath to see the Ray Field Plague within others[2] through peering past their skin, similar to that of an X-Ray, and seeing the diseases on a cellular level,[2] he also has the capabilities of somewhat sensing the power level of his opponents, being able to deduce that Cole MacGrath was the strongest person in Empire City, even while he was completely mindless after his regeneration[2])
- Very Limited Berserk Mode (Became mindless after reviving himself from being destroyed by the Ray Sphere but given this was specifically caused by his "rebirth" after being killed by the Ray Sphere, this shouldn't to be assumed to applicable towards everytime John regenerates[2]), Immortality and
- Regeneration (Type 2 - Can indefinitely remain alive while even half of his head was blown off by Cole MacGrath[2] and Type 3 - High - John repaired himself "atom by atom" after being destroyed by the explosion of a Ray Sphere which deconstructed him an Atomic Level,[2] this should logically scale equal to John's ability to manipulate matter given the inherent mechanics behind his regeneration, which is directly tied to John's ability to manipulate matter[2])
- Limited Intangibility and Aura (Immaterial - Explosive - John while in his "Beast" form passively exudes an aura of smoke, ash and fire,[2] if John's body is ever "completely" destroyed (I.E being deconstructed on a Atomic Level/below or having his entire physical body destroyed) he automatically transforms into a pseudo black hole which absorbs and deconstructs everything around him while John reconstructs his body[2])
- Transformation, Size Manipulation and Shapeshifting (John can manipulate the size and composition of his body through his ability to manipulate matter,[2] allowing him to basically shapeshift into anything he wishes, which John mostly does to transform into "The Beast",[2] he should also logically be able to transform into his pseudo black hole form at will, without acquiring all that damage given his direct control over his bodies sub-atomic structure and the capabilities of his ability to manipulate gravity but this is mostly speculation)
- Statistics Amplification (Can amplify his powers and abilities through absorbing more neuro electricity)
- Power Bestowal (John can bestow upgrades to already pre existing Conduit abilities[2] to even bestowing entirely new ones onto any Conduit he chooses[2])
- Teleportation (John can teleport great distances,[2] allowing him to travel over at least 100 miles instantly [2])
- Passive Weather Manipulation, Passive Ash Manipulation and Passive Smoke Manipulation (John's existence while as "The Beast" passively creates multi kilometer spanning clouds that're filled with ash and smoke,[2] causing the area affected by the clouds to be smokey and ashy,[2] the ash and smoke that're generated by the clouds also flow into John if he's nearby, granting him endless matter to regenerate himself with[2])
- Thought-Based Energy Manipulation, Energy Projection, Radiation Manipulation, Absorption (Biological, Energy and Matter), Death Manipulation, Durability Negation, Corruption (Type 1), Pain Manipulation, Mind Manipulation, Limited Statistics Reduction, Disease Manipulation, Biological Manipulation, Poison Manipulation and Deconstruction (Atomic - After John was destroyed and killed by the vortex explosion generated by Cole MacGrath destroying the Ray Sphere[1] he became a Conduit with many abilities given his directness to the exposure of Ray Sphere Energy[2] but his most potent one is his ability to passively generate,[2] manipulate[2] and project Ray Sphere Energy,[2] usually through just thinking he can instantly project a massive blast of Ray Sphere Energy,[2] this energy source contains a plethora of inherent abilities that are extremely potent and devastating, the baseline function of Ray Sphere Energy is the removement of neuro electricity from non-Coundits[1] and the awakening of Conduits through funneling all that neuro electricity into those Conduits, causing them to activate their Conduit Gene and gain powers from it,[2] those who aren't Conduits have their neuro electricity ripped from their body[1] and getting deconstructed on an Atomic Level,[2] Ray Sphere Energy also has a especially nasty effect of being extremely radioactive,[2] the mere existence of Ray Sphere Energy around[2] someone who isn't a Conduit creates the Ray Field Plague,[2] a destructive and biological altering diseases that's extremely poisonous towards non-Coundits,[2] usually killing them the same day they contract the plague,[2] even those who have only slightly contracted the plague are completely bedridden, being unable to really move and are in a constant state of pain,[2] it also has the effect of turning them into mindless zombies that'll attack everyone and everything, John's black hole absorbs all the deconstructed matter created by it,[2] he also passively absorbs the ash and smoke generated from his existence itself,[2] absorbed the radiation created by the nuclear missile that hit him, completely preventing fallout from the explosion[2])
- Gravity Manipulation, Limited Paralysis Inducement and Black Hole Creation (John has control over Gravity, allowing him to lift people up without physically touching them,[2] place people in a form of "statis lock", causing them to float helplessly in the air if they don't possess any form of combat-applicable flight capabilities,[2] pulling people towards him[2] and even condensing gravity down to the point of making a pseudo black hole which he projects from his palm which sucks in everything around John[2])
- Matter Manipulation and Transmutation (Macro-Quantum - John's ability to manipulate matter is exceptional, even among Conduits who manipulate unique forms of matter[3] like Electrons and Ions to create electricity,[1] this control allows John to break down, absorb and manipulate the matter of everyone and everything,[2] John tends to use his black hole to accomplish these effects,[2] this black hole deconstructs anything that's sucked up by it,[2] including things like Cole's lightning which is comprised of Electrons and Ions,[2] this deconstructed matter is then absorbed by John,[2] which he uses it for multiple applications like transmuting it into rock which is added onto his body or used to regenerate damage done to John[2])
- Power Nullification and Power Absorption (John's mere touch can "break" and "drain" Conduit abilities, causing them to be lost until that Conduit reactivates them with things like[2] Blast Cores,[2] his black hole also deconstructs physical attacks like Cole's lightning[2])
- Limited Heat Manipulation, Electricity Manipulation, Fire Manipulation, Magma Manipulation, Explosion Manipulation and Elemental Manipulation (John can generate multiple different types of elemental attacks or attributes such as creating balls of magma that creates fiery explosions when thrown,[2] he also has magma running through his entire body while he's in his "Beast" form[2] or generate bolts of reddish-orange electricity which he used to give Cole MacGrath a constant force of energy[2])
- Disease Manipulation, Biological Manipulation, Poison Manipulation and Acid Manipulation (All Conduits are immune to the Ray Field Plague,[2] which is caused by the radiation created by Ray Sphere Energy,[2] Scales to Cole MacGrath who can resist the effects of Sasha's Tar[1] and the poisonous acidic acid of Ravagers[2] and Devourers[2])
- Madness Manipulation (Type 1), Sleep Manipulation, Corruption (Type 1) and Status Effect Inducement (Scales to Cole MacGrath who can resist the effects of Sasha's Tar,[1] resisted the inherent effects behind Cole MacGrath's normal lightning[2])
- Fire Manipulation and Magma Manipulation (Resisted the fiery explosion generated from his magma, passively creates magma from his body, with it being infused into his body[2])
- Electricity Manipulation and Paralysis Inducement (Can resist Cole MacGrath's lightning for a prolonged period of time[2])
- Gravity Manipulation (Is completely unaffected by his own gravity-based actions,[2] scales to Kessler and Lucy Kuo who both resisted the electromagnetism effect[1] of Cole MacGrath's shockwaves[2])
- Smoke Manipulation and Sand Manipulation (Passively exudes smoke and ash and isn't negatively affected by either,[2] scales to Cole MacGrath who can tank the smoke and ash attacks of himself[2] and Nix[2])
- Matter Manipulation and Transmutation (Marco-Quantum - Is completely unaffected by the matter manipulation and transmutation effects of his black hole,[2] also has this level given his control over his own matter reaches this level,[2] scales to Cole MacGrath who can also resist his black hole[2])
- Absorption (Biological, Energy and Matter - Can resist the effects of Ray Sphere Energy[2] and his black hole[2])
- Ice Manipulation (Resisted multiple ice attacks from Cole MacGrath,[2] scales to Cole MacGrath who resisted ice attacks from Lucy Kuo[2] and Vermaak 88 members[2])
- Extreme Temperatures (Completely no sold the temperatures generated from the explosion of a nuclear bomb[2] which reaches the staggering heats of 100.000.000 Degree Celsius, also resisted the ice attacks of Cole MacGrath which reaches sub-zero temperatures[2])
- Power Nullification and Power Absorption (Resisted the power nullification effects of the semi-charged RFI,[2] scales to Cole MacGrath who can resist John's grasp for a prolonged period of time[2]which takes away the powers of Conduits[2])
- Radiation Manipulation and Death Manipulation (Casually resist the blast of his own Ray Sphere Energy,[2] also resisted the radiation generated from the Ray Field Inhibitor[2])
- Durability Negation (Resist a plethora of abilities which negate durability)
Attack Potency: At least Large Mountain level (Can casually cover cities in dark clouds just by regenerating and transforming and easily destroyed Empire City in a single blast when it first awoke. Became immensely stronger over the course of several weeks by constantly fighting and honing his powers. Obliterated countless cities across the country. Absorbed the radiation of a nuclear missile after taking a direct hit from it. [2] Scales above Delsin Rowe's casual feat of turning people into energy) | At least Multi-Continent level (Destroyed the moon with a single blast in the future in the early days of its awakening, Stated numerous times[2] to have the power to destroy and consume the world. Had several years to increase his powers before Kessler went back in time)
Speed: At least Relativistic+, likely Speed of Light (Can throw his attacks fast enough to tag the likes of[2] Cole MacGrath, even while he's empowered by the RFI[2]) | At least Relativistic+, likely Speed of Light. Possibly much higher (Should be superior to his present timeline self)
Lifting Strength: At least Class M (His massive body alone should weigh this much and grew immensely stronger over the course of several weeks by constantly fighting and honing his powers) | At least Class M, likely far higher (Far stronger than his past self, especially after strengthening his powers for years)
Striking Strength: At least Large Mountain level | At least Multi-Continent level
Durability: At least Large Mountain level (Shrugged off a direct hit from a nuclear missile with no visible damage to its body, only being staggered, and proceeded to teleport into the city moments later while absorbing the radiation of the explosion.[2] Could withstand several attacks from RFI-Empowered Cole before being defeated[2]) | At least Multi-Continent level (Scales directly from his attacking power)
Stamina: At least Superhuman (Fought off the Militia, the Rebels[2] and Cole MacGrath,[2] suffering numerous injuries,[2] and barely showed any sign of slowing down.[2] Traveled along the East Coast whilst fighting off the full might of the U.S. military, stopping only to destroy cities in his way.[2] Was completely unfazed by a direct hit from a nuclear missile,[2] and proceeded to teleport into New Marais just moments later,[2] resisted the pain of being deconstructed on an Atomic Level[2] and proceeded to reconstruct his entire body,[2] was also completely unaffected by the pain of having half of his head blown off by Cole MacGrath[2]), Likely Infinite (Constantly generates Ray Sphere Energy from his existence alone, which is used to power John's abilities, effectively giving him an unlimited amount of energy,[2] also give John's physiology he doesn't require sustenance from food sources nor does he need rest[2])
Range: Tens of Meters physically, Hundreds of Meters with Black Hole, Tens of Kilometers with Weather Manipulation, Hundreds of Kilometers with Ray Sphere Blast (The Beast was able to cause explosions that were worth several hundred kilometers in range[2]) | Likely Planetary (Destroyed the moon from Earth)
Standard Equipment: Nothing notable
Intelligence: Gifted (Used to be an undercover agent who managed to infiltrate the First Sons, avoided DARPA and Moya's forces, as well as the Dust Men from chasing him for weeks)
Weaknesses: The RFI (Ray Field Inhibitor) weakens his powers and severely damages him. Otherwise, nothing notable.
Notable Attacks/Techniques:
- Pyrokinesis: John use this ability to generate giant balls of fire and lava that explode on contact with physical structures and pillars of fire that can sink ocean liners and destroy cities in a single blast. The Beast also projects an aura of fiery embers.
- Superhuman Strength: John was able to casually throw a giant, building-sized metal statue across Empire City with one hand after he had just reformed. Can casually tear apart an entire shipping dock with his bare hands. He is also capable of nearly killing Cole MacGrath by crushing him in his hands.
- Superhuman Durability: John can shrug off an onslaught of attacks from Cole, taking several direct hits from his Ionic Storm. He also took a direct hit from a 51 kiloton nuclear missile, and proceeded to teleport into the city moments later.
- Telepathy: John can use this to talk directly to Cole through his mind. He could also “sense” the RFI somehow.
- Shapeshifting: John can transform himself into anything he chooses given his complete control over his bodies sub-atomic structure, but he usually uses this to transform himself into the hulken behemoth known as The Beast: a gigantic lava-like incarnate, tall enough to rival skyscrapers and dwarf the buildings of Empire City, casually leveling one by moving. The sky appears to turn a red hue and covered in black clouds when John enters this form.
- Weather Manipulation: John can drastically change the weather by transforming. He can cover the sky in dark clouds, and in Kessler's future the Beast could create blizzards, hurricanes, and volcanoes.
- Power Giving and Boosting: John can grant upgrades to already pre-existing Conduit abilities like increasing Cole MacGrath's Radar Pulse, allowing him to see the Ray Field Plague, he can also grant entirely new abilities onto others which is shown when John White granted Cole MacGrath all of the powers of The Beast.
- Gravity Manipulation: John has great control over Gravity itself, allowing him to do things like lift people up without physically needing to touch them, lock people's physical movements if they don't possess any-form of flight, pulling people towards him without needing to physically touch them to even condensing gravity down to a point that it generates a massive, black hole-like object which absorbs everything around John, deconstructing them.
- Singularity: John can create a localized black hole in his palm to break down and absorb all matter and energy. He can also turn his own body into a Singularity.
- Matter Manipulation: John can break down matter and energy and absorb it, being able to rebuild his entire body from a single atom. His Singularity can break down energy such as Cole's electricity, which is comprised of electrons. Can release waves of energy that instantly disintegrate all humans in a large radius. He can also alter the molecular structure of other Conduits such as Cole, so that his body could contain his powers.
- Transmutation: John can convert any matter or energy he absorbs into the lava-esque matter that composes his body.
- Regeneration: John's capability of regeneration is exceptional, allowing him to reform himself from any type of physical damage, even if he was reduce to atoms he can reform himself, while he's in the process of reforming himself from such damage he automatically transforms into a black hole that absorbs everything around, deconstructs that matter and transmutes it into different matter that's used by John to heal his damaged body.
- Teleportation: John can instantly teleport himself large distances, being able to travel hundreds of miles almost instantly through teleporting, this also seems to have the effect of turning John into a black hole for a couple seconds while he either reforms himself back or shapeshifts himself back into his regular, physical state.
- Radiation Manipulation and Absorption: John is able to manipulate Ray Field Radiation, and naturally produce it from his body. He also is implied to have absorbed the radiation of a 51 kiloton nuclear missile, which prevented New Marais from being hit with fallout.
- Ray Sphere Blast: John's most potent ability, John can project massive blast of Ray Sphere Energy, being able to fill hundreds of miles almost instantly with Ray Sphere Energy, this energy has a plethora of inherent effects that are all quite powerful, such as deconstructing anyone who isn't a Conduit on a Atomic Level, forcefully removing their neuro-electricity and filling them up with massive amounts of radiation if they somehow survive both previous effects, which introduces the Ray Field Plague to them, causing them to become instantly ill, physically weakening to the point they're permanently bedridden and filled with constant pain and are eventually turn into mindless zombies that will attack anything and everything.
Note: Kessler's timeline does not scale to the main timeline, due to the fact that, not only they have displayed no feats near the High 6-A range, but also, it is implied that, while Kessler expected John to be a powerful conduit, he did not expect him to be the beast, because if he did, he would have simply killed John before he became a threat. Not to mention, while John wants to save humanity, Kessler's Beast only seemed to be aiming for destruction. Both of these facts lead us to believe that Kessler's Beast is a different person, and that, logically, they should not automatically scale to the main timeline without sufficient evidence, of which there is a lack of.
