Traits
- Strength: Namor possesses vast superhuman strength, enabling him to lift/press up to 100 tons. He's a physical powerhouse and one of the strongest beings on the planet by most measures, although there's always somebody stronger. He can bend steel bars, punch through the side of an armored submarine or deflect a missile from its course in air.
- Invulnerability: Adapted to survive the depths of the ocean, Namor's body is incredibly resistant to physical harm. He can withstand blows equivalent to his own superhuman strength and endure extreme temperatures or harsh physical conditions with relative ease (some parts of the ocean, after all, get quite cold). His skin is bulletproof by a fair margin and he can withstand even large explosions and come out untouched.
- Gills: Namor is adapted to live both above and below the water. He has gills which enable him to stay under the surface indefinitely and lungs that will let him breathe air outside of the water.
- Flight: Namor has wings on his ankles that are superhumanly strong, enabling him to fly through the air. He can reach speeds of nearly 200 miles per hour and can travel for up to three hours at a time before tiring and needing to rest for an hour or two at least.
- Aquatic Empathy: While he is not telepathic in anyway, Namor has an instinctive understanding and ability to communicate with sea life. He cannot command or demand their obedience, but he is good at coaxing, negotiating and generally asking the creatures of the deep for help and they often come to his aid. Ironically, he's better at diplomacy with fish than humans.
- Regeneration: Namor's tissues restore themselves at an astonishing rate. Even if he is harmed, he will recover quickly from any injuries he sustains, healing simple wounds in a few hours and even catastrophic injury in days or weeks. His healing will be rapidly accelerated and improved by immersion in salt water and exposure to his natural element of the ocean. Due to his mixed heritage, Namor ages at a much reduced rate. Despite being in his sixties, he looks like a man of about thirty and has many decades of life yet ahead of him.
