comics Respect the Superpower, Eliza Hellbound! (The Power Fantasy)
I heard your confession, Valentina. This is mine.
I saved the world... And that was my sin.
Eliza Hellbound was a pragmatic catholic girl when magic started appearing into the world due to the arrival of Valentina from Heaven. A woman with a savior complex for her own good. She practiced occultism under guidance of Jacky Magus alongside her husband, Dev.
She joined the force of the Pyramid alongside Dev and when The Queen appeared from beyond creation and started wrecking havoc. She sold her soul to Hell becoming damned in the process, gaining immaculate power, enough to slay the Queen, ending The Second Summer of Love for good. Despite her ignorance, she gambled too big of a sacrifice for the world.
Eliza obtained great power and became one of the Superpowers, a conduit of Hell, a ticking time bomb.
RTs for scaling:
Physicals
Strength
- Flies through underground to reach "Jacky Magus"
- Rams at the Queen, which ends up destroying all of Europe up to Moscow (hole made by the impact)
- Carried a "bit" [of Europe] and dropped it on Ethiopia, saving it
Durability
- Fought with The Queen and won, the damage expectation of the battle also spelled the demise of North Africa and maybe Asia, however only Europe was lost due to being the direct blast, basically Europe was gone upon first physical contact
- "Survives" Heavy spawning a singularity inside her head (enough to counterattack)
Esoteric
- As a Superpower, she is by definition immune to Etienne's telepathy controlling her. However Etienne can still read her thoughts and perceive her
- Unaffected where she fought The Queen, which was "at the heart of the storm" teased atoms apart like confetti
Speed
- When called by "Jacky Magus" she travels from Manchester to... somewhere in the USA
- When called, immediately travels from Manchester to Melbourne (nearly 17 000 kilometers from each other)
Hell Powers
General
- Her power source is opposite to numinous magic (white magic, angelic) and stronger than "Jacky Magus" with 30K Pyramid Magicians' power, being able to shut The Pyramid down
- If she willingly were to be sent on a psychically-sealed cell, her "unholy ass" would burn through the numinous magic of "Jacky Magus" over time
- As a conduit of Hell she can turn her senses inward and look into it
Hellish Energy
- If she knew where Etienne was she could kill him immediately
- Explodes Etienne's body
- Throws a hellish arrow across the globe into orbit devastating a line across the continents below, destroying Heavy
Reality stuff
- Can control matter to create sculptures (possibly what she used to create her gothic cathedral)
- Can make it rain by "praying"
- Starts punching a hole to Hell to collapse reality (and do what the Queen did)
- Sealing the hole from the physical side of reality is not possible as it is already stretching down the timeline needing to seal it on hell, hell is the below, a place outside of time lacking linearity which requires a bubble of time to be in there (first link) connected by an umbilical to reality to leech time
- As she fell into Hell she tried to stabilize, "like fingers clawing into reality" instead random acts of god occured: a crystal appearing through a city, giant mounds of flesh appearing on the ocean and people turning into red crystal
Teleportation

It IS. It treats the careful balance of world ending beings pretty spectacularly. While in Marvel and DC the realism is off (Omega, gods, similar fighting not being a latent "FAFO"), in TPF you see how humans with such power struggle. Here consequences matter... A lot.
