Avengers Forever Part 40! Doctor Druid vs Mastermind (Marvel)!! Battle of the minds! Can Doctor Druid triumph over a throwback X-Men villain? Enter Mastermind (Jason Wyngard)! Tale of the tape Doctor Druid Doctor Anthony Druids powers were based on the mystical development of his own mind and body. He had remarkable control over his body and bodily systems, could communicate telepathically, and could psychically mesmerize others, often casting illusions directly into their minds. He could levitate and perform telekinesis to a small extent. Druid also possessed a high degree of magical sensitivity, in detecting magical energies as well as sensing impending danger. Druid supplemented these powers with magical spells he has learned over the years. He had a large repertoire of druidic rituals, including one that can bridge dimensions. More recently, Druid was bonded to nature physically and spiritually by Druidic gods. As such, Druid could mentally control and manipulate plant life, earth, and animals within his vicinity, the full extent and range of which remain unknown. Mastermind Mastermind is mutant with the power of illusion-casting. He can psionically cause other people to see, hear, touch, smell, and/or taste things which do not actually exist: for example, he can seem to make a solid wall appear in an empty space. He can also cause people to see, hear, touch, smell, and/or taste real things in ways that they would not do naturally: for example, he can make himself look and sound like a different person, or look and feel like a wall, or even seem invisible. Without artificial aids, Mastermind cannot cause only one person among many who are present to see his illusions; everyone within the range of his power, which can extend over an entire city (as when he helped Magneto capture Latin American nation of Santo Marco), will see his illusions. Since his power only affects the mind, his illusions cannot be recorded on film or tape or by other means. However, his power works so strongly on the mind that even if his victim or victims know they are being subjected to an illusion, they will still react to the illusion as if it were real unless they can rid themselves of all suspicions that it is unreal. Hence, if Mastermind creates the illusion of a wall, most people, even if they know it is an illusion, will still be unable to walk through it. Invariably Mastermind’s illusions are so skillful that most people are unable to help having the feeling, at least subconsciously, that they are real. *Remember these are random encounters
