Fight rules: both fighters at their peak, no preparation, no allies, only their own powers and personal gear. A win is a knockout, a restraint they can't escape, or a forced surrender. The percentages are fan estimates, not official information.

Powers

Sorcery beyond anything he'd held before. He trapped Franklin Richards in Hell, immobilized Doctor Strange, had a mystic counter for every scientific weapon the team owned (FF vol. 3 #69), and scarred half of Reed's face with a touch (FF #500).

Gear

Mystic armor made from Valeria's flesh, a link to baby Valeria Richards as his familiar, and castle defenses that brought down the team's ship.

Signature feats

Beat the Fantastic Four as a team; even Johnny's nova blast didn't stop him (FF #500, 2003).

Weaknesses

Debt. The power was on loan from demons, and when Reed tricked him into admitting he'd tried to cheat them, they dragged him to Hell (FF #500).

Fighting style

Cruel, theatrical and certain. He fought science with magic on purpose, to prove Reed's mind useless.
