Mutation
Such effects include the ability to sense metallic substances and levitate or manipulate anything containing metal. He has been shown to levitate objects as heavy as a 30,000 ton nuclear submarine and pull a large amount of asteroids from their orbits in the solar system's asteroid belt to entirely block sunlight from reaching the earth. (Both of these instances occured after a minion gave him a power-up.) The maximum quantity of mass that he can levitate at one time is unknown.
Magneto can also release magnetic energy as concussive blasts and protective force fields, generate intense heat within metal, draw forth electricity from magnetic fields, manipulate iron in the bloodstream to cause aneurysms, unconsciousness, or biological ruptures, and increase his power by absorbing electricity or intensely cold temperatures.
He has long been considered living proof of the longsought Unified Field Theory, that all forms of energy are related.
Trait Description Mutation Magneto was born with an extremely high electrolyte count that increases his personal bio-magnetic field and aligns it with Earth’s electromagnetic field. This mutation gives him total mastery over magnetism, allowing him to achieve a wide range of effects.
