:Power/Special Ability:
Energy Absorption/Manipulation*
The bulk of this power is unknown.
Kinetic Absorption-
This power enables Johnny to absorb and store in his body the kinetic energy generated from any impact or motion. One with this power could lessen the blow of any object hurled at him and allow him to withstand the force of potentially any blow, as it would provide no force after the kinetic energy has been taken from it.

Kinetic Release-
This ability takes the stored kinetic energy from Johnny and releases it in a shockwave, bolt or blast like form. The release can used anywhere, from shoving a person through the air to blowing papers off a table. The release can be focused or not, meaning Johnny can focus a blast from his hand or a shockwave from all around him.


:Limitations:
Energy Absorption/Manipulation*
Kinetic Absorption-
Johnny can use his ability to absorb the kinetic energy from a punch or kick rendering it harmless to him, and even potentially a bullet if Johnny is completely aware of it coming. However a barrage of bullets would be impossible for him to stop.
Any impact, footstep, punch, or even a fall could be absorbed, kinetic energy isn’t just absorbed automatically however; Johnny has to will it to happen. Though Johnny can store a great amount of energy he does have a limit, if the limit is reached the energy will release itself possibly harming Johnny or those around him.

With a degree of focus Johnny can absorb the energy from something moving, such as a car or even a bullet flying through the air. When this is achieved the object will become motionless until reactivated through touch.

If someone were to pitch an eighty mph baseball Johnny can absorb it’s kinetic energy leaving it motionless in the air until someone(or thing) touched it which would simply result in gravity taking over and causing it to fall to the ground. The amount of focus Johnny needs is dependant on different factors, such as speed, weight, and other circumstances.

Kinetic Release-
Kinetic release is when the kinetic energy absorbed by Johnny is reapplied. Kinetic energy Johnny absorbs from an impact, or a fastball, can be applied to something he touches or simply releases in the form of a shockwave, bolt, or blast.
Johnny can combine the kinetic energy absorbed to increase the strength of the release or simply reapply energy from one thing to another.
A release Johnny knows as kinetic deflection is a form of instant absorption and release which acts as a sort of defense to Johnny.
If someone were to punch Johnny in the chest, he could absorb the kinetic energy from the punch and instantly release it at the point of impact, the result being equal and opposite force inflicted to the person punching Johnny.
