X-Men Days Of Future Past film informatics Part 19A: Bishop and Warpath

The following mutants will be involved with the remnant of the Mutant Resistance of the Future X-Men, in a world regulated by Sentinels and oppressive to Mutantkind. They assist the original X-Men in the battle against the Sentinels in the year 2023.


Lucas Bishop
Wth the capability to absorb and re-channel energy as kinetic blasts, Bishop provides much-needed firepower for the X-Men at a time when they need it the most.
Bishop can absorb most types of energy, including magic and psychic, directed toward him. The nature of his powers makes it difficult to damage him with energy-based attacks, while also enabling him to work well with any energy-using teammates. Bishop can also store absorbed energy within his personal reserves, whereupon the energy increases his strength, speed, stamina and recuperative abilities, as well as affording him a measure of invulnerability. The upper limits of his ability to enhance his own physical abilities with absorbed energy is not exactly known, but is well into the level of being superhuman. This power is passive, allowing Bishop to absorb energy at all times.


James Proudstar aka Warpath
With his superhuman strength, heightened senses, speed, agility and stamina, Warpath is a unique breed of warrior. 
Warpath possesses superhuman resistance to injury, at least enough to withstand short-range firepower, grenade explosions, and telepathic attacks. He also repairs and regenerates damaged and destroyed tissue much faster than a normal human, as well as revives and recuperates from exhaustion and fatigue much faster than a normal human. Warpath possesses superhuman agility and flexibility. He can "move with the grace an Olympic gold-medalist would envy" and "swim with the ease of a porpoise." Warpath's senses – particularly sight, smell, and hearing – are enhanced to levels beyond the capabilities of a normal human. He is able to see with perfect clarity at much greater distances than an ordinary human, even in near-total darkness. His hearing is similarly heightened, enabling him to clearly hear sounds beyond the range of ordinary human hearing and to hear sounds that they can detect but at much greater distances.
