Your Hero vs Odin

Here's the deal, you get to make a hero with 10 superpowers of your choosing. These powers must be of this form:

(as an example)

The regeneration of the Pre Reboot Martian Manhunter

or

The strength of WWH

or

Transmutation power of Sersi

Can you make a hero who can beat Odin? The hero's powers must be from high herald or lower (i.e., no strength of Superboy Prime)

Also, if you don't pick, say durability of some superhero, he has the durability of a regular human.

PillarofOsiris
Durability of Classic Juggernaut
Strength of Pre Reboot Superman
Healing Factor of WWH
Energy Manipulation of Silver Surfer
Shields of Pre Reboot Hal Jordan

Telepathy of Martian Manhunter
Speed of Pre Reboot Wally West
Magic of Zatanna
Godblast of Thor (Does that count?)
Transmutaton of Sersi

I think that hero would have a DECENT chance at a win if they didn't hold back. He/she would definitely be a trans character minimum.

lol @ me.

okay, so change my strength to ultraman, and my energy projection to fate(jared stevens), then. smile


and if speed is an issue, change my pick to wally.

Reed's brains + a couple of hours prep.

Glorificus
How about:

Intellect of Reed Richards
Intellect and Magic of Dr. Doom
Speed of the Flash
And Lovability Aura of the Runner
Tactical strategy/persuasiveness of TAO
Omniscience/Precognition of Layla Miller

Move fast enough to give myself prep time/build an ultimate nullifier device, while my Love aura from the Runner and persuasiveness of TAO prevents Odin from going all bloodlusted and pulling a time-stop right at the bell. Layla's precognition lets me know what Odin is most likely going to do, and TAO's tactical advantage lets me adjust my strategy.

There. Didn't even need 10 powers. LOL.

Well it's not like Odin's ONLY ability is magic.

Black Alice has to first think to steal Odin's power -> Her power activates, and She gains Odin's magic -> She thinks to use Odin's power -> Odin's power activates

Where as Odin just needs to think "Mind rape" (or headbutt).

DarkSaint85
Lol. Then Black Alice coupled with Flash's reaction speed.

The end. I figured this was gonna come up stick out tongue

Isn't a lot of Odin's powers considered divine and wouldn't be recreated by Black Alice

Or does it not matter with her?

Or does it not matter with her? i guess odin's powers might be considered a mixture of magical and divine energies, but yeah, it doesn't matter. alice took all of spectre's powers without even pausing-- and it doesn't get more magical/divine then that.

Also wasn't he basically not being backed by his divine powers at the time and was only using magic?

But yeah the Spectre is magical/divine.

JakeTheBank
At higher levels of power, the lines between magic/cosmic/divine energies get blurred. But yeah, Black Alice's gimmick would work on Odin.

But yeah the Spectre is magical/divine. due to extenuating circumstances, alice willingly gave spectre back his powers. the fact still remains that she had no problems taking them in the first place.

he was still divine/magical-- he just didn't have a host. that was the only difference.

Newjak
Fair enough,

I just wondered what her limits were since she is always brought up against magical characters.

Galan007
i can't think of an instance in which she tried, and failed, to usurp a being's magical energies-- so as far as we know, she doesn't have any limitations. the fact that she took spectre's power with ease is further proof that she doesn't have a cap on her abilities. he is, after all, pretty much as powerful as a 'magical' being can be in dc (sans higher dimensional beings, of course.)

JakeTheBank
If anything, prior to the reboot, she got more powerful.

Originally, she was limited to nabbing powers from people nearby, but eventually, she was able to just jack powers from magical beings regardless of range. There were plenty of comics where Alice is using the powers of the Marvel Family or Alan Scott, and neither of them are anywhere present at al.

Galan007
yeah, you could definitely see that her powers were improving exponentially.

abhilegend
Alice used alan's power when he was in another galaxy.

If Alice can solo this, doesn't that technically invalidate the high herald limits in the OP? I realize she's baseline human and whatnot, but if she can amp on command to Skyafther+ levels, we're really not staying in the spirit of the thread.

Flash's speed.
Wolverine's everything else.

I was gonna say the same thing.

JakeTheBank
Yeah, obviously she could win if she jacks Odin's power for her own or someone like Spectre's, but if she's limited to high herald magic powers, she's getting obliterated.

Newjak
Multiple Man's well multiplying Power

Flash Wally West's Speed and Reaction

Doom Intelligence and Mystic Knowledge

Sebastian Shaw's Absorbing Power

Classic Juggernaut Durability and Force Field

Sersi's Transmutation Power

Silver Surfer's Energy Manipulation Powers

Black Knight's Ebony Blade

I don't know if this person can win but at the very least I think they may have a fighting chance as long as Odin doesn't just think them out of existence stick out tongue

Dude, you took Flash's power set! Who's talking about "high herald"?. stick out tongue

The thing is, I never said Alice has to power jack Odin. wink

With her powers, she can basically jack anyone she wants. She's proven she can jack multiple mages at the same time.

Filling up the other 9 open slots just makes it unfair.

But, for the sake of argument, what if I fill the second slot with....

Duplicate Boy's power set.

Restricted to "high herald leveler" power sets, of course. Which are all capable of stacking.

Also if you use Black Alice's power to jack multiple Herald level being's powers than that makes her greater than Herald Level by default because that her singular power is giving her greater than high herald ability.

I think you'll be hard pressed to find a group of ten herald level beings capable of taking down an Odin that isn't holding back.

Technically, a lot of high herald levelers can perform beyond high herald level, though.

Thor being a prominent example. His hammer can hurt characters above the high herald tier, yet he's considered a high herald level character.

Than, there's Hal "Krona Busting" Jordan.

Pointing that out, mainly because there's a character who's not Black Alice or Duplicate Boy who I think would be perfect in a ten man team, but he channels the power of The Presence.. He's resisted and returned divine energy in battle with Spectre. Yet, he also got taken down by common debris, when Spectre decides to use the battlefield against him...

So, would he be viable here?

So, would he be viable here? Yeah but there is a difference in that Black Alice can Jack Magical powers of beings above High Herald which makes her above High Herald imo.

Even if all you did was restrict her to only taking powers from High Herald level characters the accumulation of that still pushes her past High herald cause she is still only using her power to get that strong.

As for the one guy you were thinking of.

Imo if you can destroy a universe but can be knocked out by a rock then you are still way above High Herald in terms of power.

I'm just using an extreme case to demonstrate that point. Ultimately it's up to the OP.

Who were you thinking of using by the way?

Digi
Since when is Flash > HH?

confused

Madrox is a good one. He pairs well with almost anything.

Dr. Strange? He's considered high herald, isn't he? Yet taps into far higher powers.

The character I'm thinking of is in the same vein: Ramban. Created by John Ostrander, in his Spectre series. Think of him as an Israeli version of Dr. Strange, who instead of tapping into multiple higher powers, taps into THE higher power.

It lets him resist Spectres power, and perform feats of his own, but he hasn't shown the ability to destroy universes or anything like that.. I figure his power would at least let him resist Odins magic, and distract him long enough for his team to work on taking him down..

Actually Classic Strange which seems to be what you are describing is often described as trans level and above High Heralds.

Good one, but the argument against Black Alice probably applies here as well.

He has potential way beyond high herald.
