Powers & Abilities
The Rat of 12 Plagues is a trained warrior who is highly skilled in martial arts. He is in possession of chi (similar to Iron Fist) however it has been said that his chi is unclean, and as such, Iron Fist was advised not to absorb it when fighting him.
In addition to his skills he also has the ability to infect others with deadly disease simply by scratching or making contact with his target. The effects are fast acting and can prove lethal to those without healing factors; however, foes like Iron Fist (whose Chi can heal him) and Sabretooth (who possesses a strong healing factor) are able to withstand the sickness.
