Powers:
 
Enhanced Abilities: Karn has super human strength, agility, speed, endurance and durability.
Life Force Absorption: Karns' primary power is the ability to absorb the life force energy of other living creatures, thereby granting himself superhuman physical abilities. Even though Karn can absorb the energies of virtually any being, he must occasionally renew himself by feeding upon pure forms of animal-related super-beings from one of the four categories that make up his own, unusually pure, DNA such as animal, insect, human, and bird. Once Karn has touched a human, he is able to sense that person's life force across great distances.
Immortality: Karn is functionally immortal in the sense that he is immune to the effects of aging and all known diseases. Like his father and siblings, he can "resurrect" by being cloned in his stronghold on Earth-802.
Staff: Karn possesses a two pronged staff that expels unique energy.
 
Origins:
 
Karn is a member of the Inheritors a clan of totemic hunters who feed on the life force of Totems, beings that connect the animal and Human kingdoms, originally from Earth-001. They have battled and fed on both totem avatars as well as totemic Gods. They travel between dimensions and hunt all Spider-Totems in the Multiverse. Having never really fit in with his family, he only hunted as did they in order to survive - all the while secretly despising such murderous ways, preferring to create rather than destroy. Blamed by his father for his mother's death, Karn was thusly condemned for eternity to wear his mask.
