Powers and Abilities

Eternals have lots of powers ; the main one is a complete mental control over their molecules (immunities, invulnerability, regeneration, damage capacity and their STR and BODY), but they also have various psionic disciplines, which can be developed through efforts and training. The psionic abilities listed above are those that most Eternals have, but it is possible for an Eternal to develop other powers.

History

The history of the Eternals is a long and complex one, and you should check the various Marvel sourcebooks for more data. As of now, almost all of the Earth Eternals have melded into the Uni-Mind and are exploring outer space. The Uranian Eternals have been destroyed in the late XXth century by the Dragon of the Moon. There remain but a few Eternals on Titan after the various struggles with Thanos. Last but not least, there is Chronos, who still exists in astral space.

DC Universe History

Personally, I’ve turned *all* of the New Gods and other denizens of the Fourth World (except for the bugs, obviously) into Eternals. It seemed to make sense, it works extremely well, and I’ve got a coherent Kirbyverse, which is a Good Thing (tm).
