Powers and abilities
Due to the Bloodstone ring, Cullen possesses superhuman abilities similar to those of his father Ulysses Bloodstone and his sister Elsa Bloodstone. He is superhumanly strong and durable, has greater than normal stamina, agility, and reflexes. Cullen is also able to rapidly regenerate from any damage he has sustained.
The Bloodstone ring also prevents him from transforming into a Glartrox, an other-dimensional creature that feeds on its host's soul and emotions. With help from Daimon Hellstrom and Anachronism, Cullen gained the ability to suppress the Glartrox with his willpower and partially transform at will. [19] [20]
