What Are Cassandra Nova’s Powers?
As Charles Xavier’s genetic copy, Cassandra is also one of the most powerful mutant telepaths in existence. But she also has several more psionic abilities beyond Charles, thanks to how she formed herself—when Cassandra made her body in Sharon’s womb, she gave herself access to all of Charles’ mutant genome, taking not just the ability he would eventually awaken to as a child, but all of the potential abilities his X-Gene could have manifested. Along with extremely powerful telepathy, Cassandra has telekinetic powers, as well as the ability to project and manipulate a form on the Astral Plane.
As a Mummudrai, Cassandra also has multiple abilities beyond this—like the ability to regenerate and manipulate her own physical form through DNA manipulation, and even the ability to phase through solid objects, as well as plant her body into other people’s conciousness.
