Quickstrike is a hyper-fast, arrogant speedster with a restless demeanor and a deep distrust of authority, fiercely protective of his sister.

Speed Physiology: Rhys' body is adapted towards the rigors of high-speed running. His cardiovascular and respiratory systems are many times more efficient than those of a normal human being. The chemical processes of Quickstrike's musculature are so highly enhanced that his body does not generate fatigue poisons, the normal by-products of locomotion, which force the body to rest. Rather, his body constantly expels waste products during his accelerated respiration through exhalation. His joints are smoother and lubricated more efficiently than those of a normal human being. His tendons have the tensile strength of spring steel. His bones contain unknown materials significantly more durable than calcium to withstand the dynamic shocks of his feet touching the ground at speeds a human could never achieve or withstand. Quickstrike's lachrymose is more viscous than normal, thus preventing rapid evaporation and replenishment of surface fluids on his eyeballs under the influence of high wind velocity to occlude his vision.
Superhuman Speed: Quicksilver moves at superhuman speeds estimated to be up to 90,000 mph (roughly Mach 118 or higher).
Superhuman Reflexes: Quickstrike's practical reaction time is several times faster than a normal human's and the speed at which his brain processes information is heightened to a level commensurate with his bodily speed, enabling him to perceive his surroundings while traveling at high velocities.
Speed Learning: He can process information at superhuman speeds, enabling him to read hundreds of books in a matter of minutes or teach himself to play a musical instrument in a matter of moments.
Superhuman Durability: Rhys' bones are super-durable, granting him great blunt impact resistance. Quickstrike's body hardens under immense pressure as a process known as the dilatancy phenomenon, making him resistant to friction and high-speed collisions.
Molecular Destabilization: His mutation has allowed him to vibrate his molecular structure at high speeds. He has demonstrated the full effect which enables him to destabilize atomic matter by accelerating the target object's molecule structure, often causing it to fall apart or explode usually by touching it.
Acceleron is a compassionate and humble speedster whose mind and body are linked to extreme velocity, he independently intervenes in disasters, appearing as a blur of helpful motion despite his social awkwardness.

Superhuman Speed: Dennis is the fastest of the speedsters documented on Earth, and is arguably one of the fastest beings in all of existence. Denny is fast enough to run on actual photons, molecules, clouds and even ride on energy blasts. His speed is so immeasurable that he has moved faster than and reacted to and less than an attosecond. He can effortlessly run on a stream of water, even while carrying two people at the same time. Dennis is even fast enough to run on flying chunks of debris. His super speed also makes Denny immune to time being slowed down to a near halt. Acceleron's speed is effectively limitless, but his highest recorded speed is up to 8.3 million mph.
Superhuman Reflexes: Dennis possesses reflexes far greater than a normal human being. This allows him to easily react to danger and events and perceive the world in slow motion.
Superhuman Stamina: Denny's body can handle the stress of moving at superhuman speeds for extended periods of time without getting tired or weak.
Superhuman Agility: Denny's agility, balance and bodily coordination are enhanced to superhuman levels. This allows him to easily make sharp turns and leap far distances while moving at superhuman speed.
Superhuman Strength: In order to keep in shape, Acceleron routinely engages in super speed exercises. He can tow up to 600 tons.
Superhuman Durability: Denny is capable of resisting tremendous kinetic impact forces that could easily crush or kill a human, without suffering any serious external or internal injuries, making him much more durable than any human.
Enhanced Mental Processes: Denny's mental capacities are greatly enhanced by his powers, allowing him to think at the speed of light and perceive events that last less than an attosecond. He is also capable of reading at superhuman rates, accumulating mass amounts of knowledge in seconds.
Enhanced Senses: His power grants Denny enhanced senses that allow him to perceive the world at a rate attuned to his reaction speed.
Molecular Acceleration: Denny can vibrate his own molecular structure at varying degrees for a number of purposes. By vibrating his vocal cords, Acceleron can alter his voice, disguising it so that no one can discover his identity via auditory. Denny can push his vibrations even further to alter his molecules and atoms and those of others, he can even scatter and shake them a part. He can draw billions of molecules into a single chain reaction, with his vibrations. Acceleron can even counter paralysis with super speed by vibrating in order to get the molecules active again.
Phasing: By vibrating his molecules on an atomic level, and by doing so at just the right frequency, Denny can allow himself to become momentarily intangible, and phase through objects such as walls and people.
Dimensional Travel: Denny is capable of breaking the dimensional barrier with his speed to traverse between dimensions.
Advanced Hand-to-Hand Combat: Acceleron has undergone self-defense classes and advanced police training. He incorporates elements of boxing, judo, karate, taekwondo, and wrestling into his fighting style.
Hyper-Metabolism: While moving at accelerated speeds, Denny burns calories much faster than a normal person. While breaking down food far more efficiently, it requires him to consume large amounts of nutrients. He needs to consume 50 times his own body weight in food daily just to keep his body from going into starvation.
