While on a dig in belize he picks up a sword, bracelet and breastplate in some cave ruins. They give him the power to heal and exentuate his priesthood powers and make him able to see into thehearts of others and gleen their true intentions. Any Ideas on what other powers to give him would be great and also a first experience when he returns to the "Y".

I think I know well enough what people are thinking and I don't want to know any better than I do. But I do want to gesture with my hands and move objects at my will. So I guess I'm Magneto to your Dr. X. I’ve always been more of a telekenetics man myself. I think I know well enough what people are thinking and I don’t want to know any better than I do.

John,

There are too many LDS superheroes for me to mention, I'll just name a few I omitted here: the Fertile Four, the Excommunicator (he's a supervillain), and General Authority of FARMS (Foundation for Aggressively Reducing Mutant Species). Fooboy,
