Power

Havelock is an energy-based Life-form ~ He lacks anything resembling conventional Biology ~ To the human eye, He appears to be a collection of shifting rays of light in the rough shape of a human, although he can change his shape drastically, and alter his coloration with concentration.

While Havelock does not require conventional food or drink (or Atmosphere) ~Havelock is able to absorb Radiation and convert it into a form of harmless ambient energy that he uses to sustain himself. ~ His body seems to leech Radiation out of an area like a sponge, this process is extremely quick and equally effective. (This effects radiation of both the harmful, and ambient variety).

Despite the lack of obvious sensory organs, Havelock's Hearing is above average for ordinary healthy humans ~ His sense of smell is significantly below average ~ Havelock has expressed the ability to 'Taste' nearby sources of Radiation. ~ Havelock sight is incredible, his exotic energy-based sensory organs allow him to see across the entire electromagnetic spectrum.

With regular practice Havelock can manipulate his own Energy-form to send and receive Radio messages via a special PRT frequency (this allows him to connect to the PRT console without a physical radio transceiver)

While Havelock's body is made of exotic energy, he can manipulate objects via a low-level Telekinetic field ~ He has lifting strength on par with an average PRT trooper. ~ Otherwise he is Mostly intangible with physical attacks passing through him to little effect (Although he has expressed a discomfort from large objects phasing through him.) His Intangibility is Manton Limited, meaning that punches can hit him, where as bullets cannot.

Havelock's Body is much more vulnerable to less physically-based/energy attacks. ~ This form of attack is extremely good at disrupting (or potentially destroy) his physical form enough that he has to waste time re-forming form his constituent pieces (this process can take a long time depending on the attack used on him ~ usually at least a week to fully reform.)

Havelock can Hover at about 20mph, He is unaffected by things like wind, atmosphere, pressure, or walls.

Manton Limitations:

During an encounter with a villainous power-null, Havelock seemingly dissipated, he was listed MIA, a week later he had reformed a hundred feet from where he had disappeared, his memory of that time was fuzzy and psychologist compared the disorientation to that of a concussion.

During testing with a few PRT affiliated capes, it was observed that Dyna-kinetic abilities could not harness or manipulate the energy that makes up his physical body, officially this has been chalked up to be a strange form of Manton Limitation.
