Powers and abilities

  • Superhuman Physical Characteristics
  • Supernatural Willpower (Lygus was completely unfazed after enduring 28,371,274 cycles to an unknown number of cycles, in addition to 33,550,336 cycles and 4,931 years, and claimed that he is capable of waiting billions of years, and even another billion years beyond that. He also stated that after experiencing the 33 million cycles created by Khaslana, waiting a thousand years is but an atom in a grain of sand to him)
  • Immortality:
  • Type 1 (Being an Intellitron, Lygus is effectively immortal, as his mechanical nature allows him to live indefinitely. He lived through 28,371,274 cycles to an unknown number of cycles, in addition to 33,550,336 cycles and 4,931 years, and claimed that he is capable of living billions of years, even an additional billion years beyond that)
  • Type 2 (Mid; Lygus was capable of surving decapitation on two different occasions)
  • Type 9 & Avatar Creation (The True Form of Lygus resides in the Exomyth, a place where one cannot interact physically. Everything in The Amphoreus Experiment is merely an "echo", or rather the avatar of Lygus himself, hence the reason he was able to survive even when he was decapitated by the Flame Reaver and Khaslana)
  • Inorganic Physiology (Type 1; Intellitrons are machines with minds directed by programming, but Lygus' case is different, as he is one of Zandar's nine fragments, having once been an organic being who split his consciousness into nine physical vessels)
  • Self-Sustenance (All Types; As an Intellitron, Lygus doesn't need to rely on any conventional sustenance due to his mechanical nature)
  • Hive Mind (Type 2; Zandar's "Thought Fragments" form a Hive Mind in which each fragment possesses its own personality, will, and identity while remaining subconsciously linked to the same core consciousness, allowing them to act independently across time and space yet still reflect the unified mind of Zandar)
  • Genius Intelligence (Supergenius; Lygus was revealed to be Zandar One Kuwabara, renowned as one of the most brilliant minds in the cosmos and often described as "one of the smartest beings during the First Prosperity". His intelligence transcends conventional understanding, placing him among the few intellects capable of grasping the highest levels of cosmic logic and metaphysical computation. Renowned for solving theoretical paradoxes, placing him at the very least on par with the likes of Herta, Screwllum, Ruan Mei, Stephen Lloyd, and many other Members of the Genius Society. Zandar's analytical power extends beyond science into metaphysics and the very structure of reality itself, and his works laid the foundation for numerous civilizations' understanding of cosmic cognition and the limits of sentient reasoning—concepts that would later become common sense in the emerging Amber Eras)
  • Preparation (Technological Preparation; Zandar survived Polka Kakamond by establishing a failsafe ensuring that his "Thought Fragments" would exist throughout all of time. He created nine vessels of himself to carry on his unfulfilled mission — to kill Nous, the Aeon of Erudition, who binds the universe through knowledge and keeps every genius in existence within the scope of his calculations. Lygus, one of the nine vessels, fulfilled this mission using the Amphoreus Scepter, which holds the Irontomb Equation, being a discarded part of Nous. Designated as the Destroyer of Erudition, Irontomb possesses the capability to kill Nous, with the Lord Ravager's completed Self-Coronation taking the head of Nous and turning all THEIR calculations into Destruction, destroying the universe in the process)
  • Extrasensory Perception (Enhanced Sight) & Enhanced Senses
  • (Neutral Vision【1 Layer】& Soul Vision; Can see souls. Stated to have killed Memosnatchers. Memosnatchers are the radicals of the Garden of Recollection, whose physiology is the same as the Memokeepers, who are invisible even to those who can see invisible beings like Welt and Himeko)
  • Non-Physical Interaction
  • (Spiritual, Mental & Information【Type 2】; Can interact with souls)
  • (Energy; Can interact with a Stellaron which is composed of pure energy. Should be able to interact with a Heliobus like the Trailblazer)
  • (Memories; Should be able to interact with memories like the MC and Fu Xuan)
  • (Data; Can interact with a Stellaron made out of data and Aether Spirit which are also composed of data)
  • (Intangibility【Immaterial & Phasing】; Stated to have killed Memosnatchers. Memosnatchers are the radicals of the Garden of Recollection, whose physiology is the same as the Memokeepers, who shed their physical forms to become Memetic Entities. Memetic Entities can phase through physical structures)
  • Multilocation (Both Types; Before Polka Kakamond destroyed Zandar's physical form, he encoded and split his own consciousness into nine physical vessels — separate bodies that each contain a portion of his mind, allowing him to exist and act independently through multiple forms at once while remaining a single unified being connected by the same consciousness. Zandar's "Thought Fragments" are separate existences created when he split his consciousness across all time, each fragment acting independently in different space-times yet all being parts of the same mind, making him a being whose existence simultaneously spans multiple locations and eras)
  • Data Manipulation, Soul Manipulation, Mind Manipulation & Information Manipulation (Type 1; In his old age, and just minutes before Polka Kakamond destroyed his physical form, Zandar digitized and split his own consciousness, placing it into nine physical bodies, a person's mind is regarded as their soul and is composed of fundamental information, the latter that shapes reality and life as a line of code. Lygus has also repeatedly demonstrated his ability to manipulate the data within Amphoreus)
  • Pocket Reality Manipulation & Time Manipulation (Implied to have created the Exomyth, which is the intersection between Amphoreus and the real universe, being capable of easily modifying it at his will. Within the Exomyth, time flows far more slowly than in Amphoreus, moving at a rate almost indistinguishable from that of the real universe)
  • Paralysis Inducement, BFR (Dimensional), Sealing & Power Nullification (Within Amphoreus, Lygus can paralyze his opponents and send them to the Exomyth with just a clap of his hands. Those sent to the Exomyth are effectively sealed away, and the Exomyth is known as the "Erudition's Prison". Any attempts to interfere with those imprisoned within it are thwarted by the Exomyth's own system, with the only means of escape being through the external powers from the Pathstriders of Remembrance)
  • Dimensional Travel (Emanators can travel through imaginary spaces and the boundary between worlds)
  • Imaginary Energy (Destruction & Erudition) & Honkai Energy (High-Level; As a Pathstrider of Destruction and an Emanator of Erudition, Lygus is capable of drawing Imaginary Energy from Paths which is a part of imaginary element, with the imaginary space being both the metaphysical world and a higher-dimensional plane. Emanators were directly bestowed power and blessed by their respective Aeons, gaining abilities and resistances related to the Aeon they follow. Emanators are capable of controlling the universe through their ability to control Imaginary Energy, including that of the Masterless Imaginary Energy within the Honkai Energy Intertidal Zones)
  • Passive Probability Manipulation (When one walks on a Path their various possibilities collapses into a single entity)
  • Transformation (Can transform into Theoros Lygus, unleashing his true power as an Emanator of Erudition)
  • Imaginary Energy (Emanators are resistant to Imaginary Energy because, as seen when Acheron's passive Imaginary Energy was unleashed against Aventurine of Stratagems after she unsheathed her sword yet failed to affect him, their metaphysical anchorings—such as Aventurine's Cornerstone, which contains a share of the power of Diamond, an Emanator of Preservation—and Acheron's alignment with the Path of Nihility as an Emanator of Nihility render them inherently resistant to the effects of Imaginary Energy)
  • Honkai Energy (High-Level; Emanators are capable of traversing Honkai Energy Tidal Zones, which are inexhaustible masses of the energy in a masterless state. With even minimal exposure to Honkai being capable of corrupting and killing individuals)
  • Void Manipulation & Memory Manipulation (Emanators like Lygus should be unaffected by imaginary space which erases all trace of existence and cause people to forget themselves)
  • Madness Manipulation (Type 3; As an Emanator of Erudition, Zandar should have easily resisted the effects of looking at Nous, who can drive even a scholar from the Intelligentsia Guild into madness the instant he laid eyes on the Aeon of Erudition)
  • Curse Manipulation, Mind Manipulation, Soul Manipulation, Information Manipulation (Type 2), Illusion Creation & Sound Manipulation (Emanators are able to effortlessly dispel Sunday's Harmony powers with just their subconscious minds)
  • Biological Manipulation, Corrosion Inducement, Space-Time Manipulation & Reality Warping (Can withstand several effects caused by the Fragmentum)
  • Status Effect Inducement (Which in-game is represented as Burning, Freezing, Electric Shock, Sharp Winds, Quantum Entanglement & Imaginary Imprisonment)
  • Soul Manipulation, Mind Manipulation & Information Manipulation (Type 2; The soul contains the consciousness and fundamental information, the latter that shapes up all of reality and life)
  • Large Size (Type 0; Theoros Lygus towers over Trailblazer and Hysilens in size)
  • Additional Limbs & Body Control (Theoros Lygus has tentacle-like structures on his back that function as modular protrusions. He can also manifest two additional arms and split open his face, revealing another visage beneath it, as though his outer face were merely a mask)
  • True Flight (Theoros Lygus can fly.)
  • Limited Corruption (Type 2) & Madness Manipulation (Type 2; Within Amphoreus, Theoros Lygus can use the Black Tide offensively against his enemies. The Black Tide can corrupt those exposed to it and drive them into madness as a result. It was also stated to be a non-physical entity, whose visual manifestations within Amphoreus are merely an emergent effect of the Destruction Equation's spreading infection)
  • Summoning & Bloodlust (He can summon Furiae Warriors as well as Black Tide creatures such as Tide-Eroded Blade and Black Tide's Corroded Axe. All of Black Tide creatures are driven solely by an insatiable thirst for bloodshed)
