is actively thinking about creating one. He has the ability to change the density of matter using his electromagnetic powers, e.g., changing water into a solid ramp. He can absorb and channel energy directed at him, such as fire. Triumph can also use his electromagnetic powers to triple the g-force inside a magnetic field while pressurizing the field to several atmospheres creating a stasis field, essentially freezing everyone inside the field. Triumph may also possess high-level physical strength, speed, and invulnerability—on at least one occasion he engaged in hand-to-hand combat with Superman and claimed: "I'm as strong as you, I'm as fast as you, I have powers you don't even have names for..." Triumph only possesses superhuman powers when he has a connection to the electromagnetic spectrum; without that source he has no powers.
