SPECIAL ABILITIES

ADVANTAGES:

 

Air Animation: Red Tornado can directly control the movement of gases and vapors and indirectly control the movement of material suspended in the air, such as smoke, dust, steam, and so on. He can create winds of speeds equal to Power rank speed (see the Airspeed table on the inside cover). He can control the actions or air, wind, clouds, and potentially even the weather. Red Tornado can use air either defensively or offensively by forming shields or gales of rank strength. Note: Air attacks cannot penetrate Force Fields or an aerial shield of higher Intensity.

Flight: Red Tornado can fly through air and space without any apparent means of propulsion. This is the most desired Power in the history of the world. He can move at speeds up to 2,000 mph.

Hyper-Speed: Red Tornado can run at Power rank speed for extended amounts of time. The Power has the side-effect of raising the Ability rank number of Endurance by this Power's rank number. It includes protection to wind resistance and windburn; this protection extends to anything Red Tornado is carrying. Red Tornado's lungs are modified to breath high velocity air. The last benefit can be crucial if Red Tornado is capable of Remarkable speeds or better.

If Red Tornado stumbles, he continues on a ballistic trajectory until he regains footing or rolls to a halt. To cut down on the chance of this, the Power increase Red Tornado's reaction time to be able cope with impending problems. The increased reaction time decreases the relative speed of any other moving object. Red Tornado's Power rank number decreases the perceived speed of the other object. For example, Quicksilver's Shift X speed lets him perceive a bullet traveling at 600 mph as if it were traveling only 15 mph.

This side-effect enables Red Tornado to dodge or even catch things like bullets and missiles.

Hyper-Strength: This is the iconic super power of a meta being, representing not only Red Tornado's raw physical force, but also it is the physical manifestation of ability to assert himself over another. As such, Red Tornado is capable of bench pressing a maximum of , or to put it another way, He could bench the .

Hyper-Endurance:Red Tornado capability of sustaining prolonged periods of physically stressful effort (aerobic or anaerobic) without/while only exhibiting any noticeable signs of exhaustion or duress. In the case of Red Tornado, 'long' is defined as being equal to the his Body rank times the rank of his Hyper-endurance. Thus Red Tornado could run at full tilt for several hours.

HISTORY

Originally a sentient cyclone that terrorized the planet Rann, the Red Tornado became heroic under the influence of Rann's champion, Adam Strange. It was later infused into an android body created by T.O. Morrow, losing its memories in the process. Although Morrow sent the Red Tornado to destroy the Justice League of America, his heroic nature prevailed and he was accepted as a valuable JLA member. Adopting the guise of "John Smith", he sought to explore his human nature. He even fell in love, with a woman named Kathy Sutton, and together they adopted a daughter. But duty forced Red Tornado to sacrifice himself on several occasions. Each time, he reconstituted after a long period of dormancy before meeting his ultimate defeat when he and the Green Arrow were fighting the Master Jailer in Sydney Australia. Both the Green Arrow and the Red Tornado were vaporized by an unknown force, which went on to take the lives of over 50 meta-humans that day in addition to destroying the Watchtower.
