Abilities
Using her education and intellect (similar to Reed Richards, Doctor Doom etc), seemingly taps into some universal scientific unconciousness allowing her to create inventions centuries ahead of where the Primal Earth standard is.
This education and her state as as a being of energy has given her insights and focus into the very laws of physics. Her greatest ability seems to stem from her energy manipulation itself. With minimal concentration after years of non stop practice and use, she is able to alter the very molecular make up of objects, including herself. She has shown limited ability to affect organic matter, though it is believed by those who have spoken with her this is a personal mental barrier she has in place rather than a true limit to her power.
She has been known to use this energy manipulative ability to create and re-shape objects as well as alter her own appearance at will. As her experience grows she has realized untapped potentials in herself. Due to a lucky quirk of genetics and timing both her and her sister have kheldian DNA allowing them to use their powers and shape change as Kheldians do. Perhaps it is this racial memory the Kheldians have that allow her to advance as she does and grasp cosmic concepts in the scale and way that she manages.
Further honing of the skills have allowed her to alter gravimetric fields around people, as well as tapping into their own potential and kinetic energy.
As she is quite literally living Plasma, fire commonly seems to be a focus for her, as both a Blaster class and Controller class, Fire Manipulation came easy to her once she passed the 41st security level.
She took upon herself early on in her hero career, before realizing what may be in store for her to learn what to do should she lose her powers. She sought teachers such as Mr. Karate, Jake Valajeski, Mexican Wrestler, Psylum, Little Mime and Ying Ren to teach her the martial Arts. For a 6 month period Plasma Stream was not seen in the city and she has stated that she spent that time in a training camp under the tutelage of the Ninja, Ying Ren.
Weaknesses and Limitations
It is more or less known to those who have paid attention that Plasma is vulnerable to magic. Plasma is a being of science, she was created by it, it is her religion and faith. However, she is confounding and often irritated at the existance of the mystical and arcane in the world. Going by the belief that one must believe in Magic for it to affect you, she is none the less forced to believe in it due to her close friends and allies in the Dauntless.
Due to her utmost devotion to science and belief, yet now milder, disdain of magic. Weilders of the Arcane have found their effects to hit Plasma Stream harder than most. Curses tend to last longer, spells have greater transformative effect, etc.
When using her Kheldian "energy matrix" formation, she is as vulnerable as any Kheldian to void hunter technology.
