Dominikos Petrakis is an immigrant from Greece who after taking some fish oil pills who became a Mutant with the powers to generate powerful seismic waves from his hands strong enough to shatter inorganic matter and create localized earthquakes. Being a Mutant and seeing his own kind hunted and killed made him realize how ignorant mankind can be and he decided to hide his powers from the world. He was approached by the Mutant known as Luminous to join Max's Brotherhood under the alias Avalanche.
Powers and Abilities[]
Avalanche is a Mutant with seismic wave generation:
- Seismokinesis: Avalanche is a Mutant with the superhuman ability to generate powerful waves of vibrations from his hands, creating highly destructive effects through the air, water and ground. The vibrations could cause small inorganic objects to be shatter or crumble into dust. When used upon the earth itself or against large inorganic objects such as a buildings these generated vibrations can cause disastrous earthquake-like effects. Avalanche's control over his power was fine enough that he could move large objects, such as tanker trucks, without destroying them and even use them to smoothly throw his opponents off balance or weaken the structural integrity of building foundations or the ground itself. Avalanche could also cause tidal waves when directing his powers at large bodies water and possibly even tsunamis. His greatest effects could be found when he used his powers on earth matter. When directing his powers at the ground he could cause ground tremors, forming waves of debris, open fissures in the earth, cause chunks of pavement or earth to blast up into the air and then fall in simulated landslides or avalanches. He often used his skills as a means of transportation by using waves of earth matter to ride atop. With enough concentration, Avalanche could direct this power at Earth's tectonic plates to cause large-scale disastrous effects. When directed against large objects like buildings or upon the earth itself, the vibrations could produce effects similar to those of an earthquake or avalanches within limited areas. Avalanche need not touch an object to affect it: he could direct the vibrations against it from some distance away from it. Avalanche was himself invulnerable to the effects of generating these intense vibratory waves. However, if the vibrations were to be reflected back upon him, he would be injured by it. There was no known limit to the amount of area upon which Avalanche used his powers at one time. However, there is no evidence that he could create an earthquake capable of destroying an entire city.
Equipment[]
- Avalanche wore a body armor battle suit with a helmet that gave him enhanced resistance to injury, up to and including him protecting him from a land mine.
