During the next few days, Prof decided he would stop Obliteration from destroying city by encasing him in a forcefield. Obliteration started to store up sunlight in Babilar on a rooftop. Obliteration knew Newton's weakness, and kept her in check. Later, David found that Obliteration is also working with Newton. He almost succeeds in drowning David by attaching a ball and chain to his leg and dropping him into the water. Obliteration fights the Reckoners from time to time in Babilar. Regalia also secretly makes a teleportation device from Obliteration's power. They also had the advantages of being easily concealable, creatable, and transportable. In exchange for serving her, Regalia not only made Obliteration's powers stronger, but she also gave him motivator-powered bombs, detonated by remote control, that matched his own destructive abilities. Obliteration was summoned to Babilar by Regalia, who offered to let Obliteration destroy Babilar if he did what she wanted for a short bit. However, these weren't as destructive as Houston, because people realized what Obliteration was doing, and ran away before Obliteration had finished. Obliteration had also destroyed Albuquerque and San Diego in the same way. After a few weeks, Obliteration released all the power, melting the entire city, killing tens of thousands in moments. Obliteration had sat in the middle of a city square of Houston, storing up heat from the sun. Obliteration ruled in Houston for some time before deciding to destroy the entire city. Obliteration is nearsighted, but not nearly bad enough for it to be considered a true weakness. However, he overcame his weakness five years after Calamity rose. It is unknown what Obliteration's weakness is. He claims he can recognize them by their eyes, but David thinks he has another power. Obliteration is also able to recognize David and Megan, even though they are disguised. It is unclear if the discrepancies between his observed powers and David's notes are simply because of faulty information or because Regalia and/or Calamity enhanced his powers. Obliteration is strong enough to easily lift David up with one hand. In theory, Obliteration could actively suppress this Danger Sense, but it would be extremely difficult, and Obliteration has not learned how to do this yet. The danger sense works reactively, meaning that it triggers after action has been taken, for example the trigger of a gun has been pulled, and only then when the action would actually hurt Obliteration. (tied to his teleportation) Should something happen that would hurt Obliteration he automatically teleports away. However, in Babilar, he no longer seems to have this limitation. According to David's notes, Obliteration is unable to reappear (and is thus invulnerable but also unable to do anything) for several minutes after teleporting. He can only teleport to places he can visualize (either from seeing the locations in person or viewing a sufficiently detailed photo). His teleportation gets described as his body bursting outwards in a flash of light, similar to a ceramic figure bursting into ceramic shards. Obliteration can teleport, automatically taking inanimate objects and people he touches with him. Obliteration has enough control over his powers to not melt objects he wants to keep intact, such as his sword and clothes. Furthermore, storing an excessive amount of heat makes him shine brightly, and produce copious amounts of heat, to the point where mere skin contact can cause severe burns. These blasts do not seem to produce any radiation. There is no known limit as to how much concentrated energy he can unleash in a single burst, as he is capable of unleashing a heat wave massive enough to melt the entirety of Houston at once. At any time, he can unleash the absorbed heat or dissipate it harmlessly. He can absorb heat at an astonishing rate, causing a tree to frost over and wither in a mere eyeblink. There is no known upper limit to how much energy he can store, however storing an excessive amount of heat makes it difficult for him to teleport and retain the stored heat. Obliteration is capable of absorbing the heat out of any object he touches, including humans. Attributes and Abilities Epic Abilities Heat Manipulation Regalia claims that Obliteration never got over the initial phase of destruction that all Epics have. Obliteration constantly makes biblical references, going as far to believe he is one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, given divine power by the "archangel" Calamity to end humanity and its corruption. Obliteration is described as an indiscriminant killer and "creepy", but also rather clever. He usually wears spectacles and a trench coat, and his weapon of choice is a sword. Obliteration has a narrow face with a goatee and long, straight black hair that falls past his shoulders.
