Who is Kiber The Cruel?

POWERS Kiber had no powers as an ordinary man other than his incredible intellect. A genius perhaps on par with the likes of Bruce Banner , or Henry Pym , Kiber created many things including a matter transporter, android guards, an advanced type of hologram called an "air image", devices to contain the human life force and intelligence as well as convert them to the energy he needed to survive. After the teleportation accident mutated him, Kiber became an energy vampire requiring a human psionic consciousness to survive. He proved able to slowly and covertly drain the life energies of those who made telepathic contact with him. By siphoning these energies into himself Kiber would increase his mass and strength. He could lift 1 ton in his mutated form at maximum mass, but his immobility from being bonded to the floor made this of little significance. To provide himself with energy and meet other needs he created solidified air images of himself, a type of advanced hologram he could conciously control as a proxy body. These bodies appeared as Kiber did before his mutation, and had the following abilities.
