W.I.P Wanted to give what I had so far. His powers are purely their canon but with some small change to exclude the more....OP stuff like shutting down powers and manipulating the matter in organics. Though I kept his absorption the same because well...it's literally his best thing and can cause him to fall through time.
Alias:
Captain Atom
Name:
Nathaniel Adam
Powers and Abilities:
- Quantum Field Manipulation - Captain Atom's body is a conduit that is connected directly to the Quantum Field, a limitless void of all matter and all energy that enables him to absorb, generate and manipulate infinite amounts of energy and matter. The amount of which he can use is limited by his willpower, scientific knowledge, and imagination. The Quantum Field has given him various uses, and many of which are unknown. Although he is able to use it with limitless potential, he most commonly uses it for his superhuman physical abilities, and his ability to manipulate energy and matter. The Quantum Field also grants him various immunities and/or resistances against telepathy and molecular manipulation.
- Invulnerability - Dilustel metal has a symbiotic relationship with Captain Atom's body and is virtually indestructible, highly resistant to various degrees of damage from energy, heat, lasers, and missiles. In certain situations, his skin can be breached, most notably by X-ionized weapons or weapons that are made to cut/punch through any surface (Crimson Avenger's enchanted bullets, Zealot's swords, etc.). Against physical force, he's shown to withstand punishment from Wonder Woman without having his skin breached.
- Superhuman Endurance - The energies of the Quantum Field sustain Captain Atom. He has no need for food, sleep, or oxygen. He can survive in outer space and doesn't need to breathe. His endurance is increased to superhuman levels, and he can perform strenuous activity for a long and undefined period
- Energy Projection and Manipulation - He is able to emit blasts of any type of quantum-based energy from any part of his body at once, but normally prefers using his hands for ease of aim. He is able to control the magnitude and wavelength of his energy blasts at will. He can stun his opponents with his blasts at the lowest setting. But, at higher settings, he's shown to blow up aircraft, tanks, and stagger powerful super-powered beings such as Kal and Wonder Woman. With the Quantum Field, he is able to generate and manipulate forces along the Unified Field (fundamental forces). In the same way, he learned to access weak force energy, manipulate gravitational forces, and electromagnetism (has generated pure light from his body). The Quantum Field also grants his Quantum blasts with the effect of intense heat, and he has shown to be able to melt down dense metallic substances and heat things up with what he likes to call 'Quantum heat.'
- Superhuman Strength - The limits of Captain Atom's physical strength are unknown, but, he is able to lift 50 tons with effort. To date, he's been able to It was stated by Batman himself that with greater control over his powers that he could become strong enough to move around mountains.
- Superhuman Reflexes - Captain Atom is able to think, move and react at superhuman speeds, significantly greater than humans. Bruce Wayne revealed that Captain Atom was once able to move faster than he could think during his experimental testing of Captain Atom's powers. He has shown to react fast enough to stop bullets with his hand, and move fast enough to intercept gunfire after it's already left the barrel.
- Energy Absorption - Extreme energy absorption that's second to none. With proper control, concentration, and regulation of his energy absorption rate, he is capable of absorb infinite amounts of energy to avoid quantum jumping through time. There is almost no form of energy that Captain Atom is unable to absorb.
- Techno-Interface - He has also shown the ability to telepathically interface with computer networks and the binary system.
- Matter Manipulation - He has shown to manipulate cohesive force to make 'protomatter.' On occasion, he has shown to transmute solid objects, having transmuted Green Arrow's arrows into butterflies and a firearm into a toy spaceship. Depending on the situation, it appears as if this ability is used on instinct or with some level of concentration. Organic materials are quite impossible to manipulate at Captain Atom’s current level.
- Time Travel - By over absorbing, Captain Atom is flung into the future, from a week up to many years. He has no control over this power.
- Flight - Ability to fly at supersonic speeds (speeds at Earth's escape velocity or greater) in an atmosphere and at sub-light speeds (more than half the speed of light) in interstellar space & when traveling interstellar distances. However, Captain Atom claims that he can hit light speed if he wants to.
- Military Experience - Has Air Force officer training in covert operations, military weaponry (mostly firearms), strategy, and hand-to-hand combat (quite possibly based on MAC training). Major Nathanial Adam also has strong survival instincts derived from his experiences during the Vietnam War.
Back story: Probably going to be more canon
On the day of the attack:
Captain Atom was dumped bv time during that very day. A confused hero in a confusing world having to deal with a very confusing attack on the planet. All he knew when he awoke was that his planet was being attacked by aliens. What he didn't know was that Martian Manhunter was not one of those invaders. Atom attacked the Martian instantly, Diana intervening to stop Atom. The fight only lasted for a few moments before Kal and Bruce intervened. Regardless that Atom even attacked Kal, Batman was able to stop them all. Atom recognized that truth in Batman's words and began to help the few heroes against the invasion by fighting off the smaller ships and protecting the city below whilst they handled the main force. This was the day that Captain Atom became known to the public at hand.
Since That Day:
Undergoing experiments with J'onn and BatmanCharacter Aim:
The idea is that Captain Atom is not afraid of his powers unlike the past Atom and he does not have to worry about taking out the entire planet if his skin is breached. While yes, his body can still expose radiation but when he is seriously injured due to the powers not being metal skin but instead infused into his body, leaving him looking human. He's also not a brawler like his counterpart; he focuses on his powers rather then fighting hand to hand. Atom only has enough strength to protect himself if needed. The aim to turn him into a hero version of Monarch.
