Dr. Elrod Purvis, before his transformation.

Powers/Abilities

His reptilian mutation grants him the follwing:

  • Durable Hide - his reptilian hide has allowed him to survive hits that would kill most kats
  • Enhanced Strength - usually with his tail, he is capable of lifing full grown kats off the ground with it.
  • Immunity - he appears to be immune to poisons and toxins, and possibly most terrestrial diseases
  • Blood - his blood is a mutagenic chemical itself, as he fed mosquitos off of his hand, which then mutated in monstrous forms

Note: he may also have the ability to regenerate, as the formula that mutated him was designed for specifically that purpose.
