As a Conduit, he possesses the ability to manipulate electricity at will, and utilize it for anything possible.[2] During that time, a Conduit of impossible strength dubbed as "The Beast", attacked and lay waste to Empire City, killing any known life form nearby. Though his powers would have been enough to deal with the monster, Cole fled with his family, leaving the others behind. As he and his family fled, the Beast would continuously hunt him down, laying waste to any known life form as he did. The calamity caused by the Beast left the world desolate of any life, with the environment barely fit for living.[2]
