Fantomex is an artificially-evolved human who possesses multiple brains for independent parallel processing, nano-active blood, and an external nervous system given form as E.V.A., an autonomous entity with a pure machine consciousness capable of changing its form as well as being able to emit bio-electric blasts.

Fantomex is both telepathically and symbiotically linked to E.V.A. As a result, whenever E.V.A. is traumatized or injured, Fantomex experiences the same pain. Fantomex does possess a secondary, internal nervous system that he can activate to prevent this, but its functions are limited, allowing him to see only in black & white. Through his link with E.V.A., Fantomex can see from E.V.A.’s perspective and take control of E.V.A.’s functions, though he must concentrate fully to do so. Together, their combined consciousnesses can create extremely convincing illusions.Fantomex appears to have the ability to teleport, but like much involving him it may only be all smoke and mirrors akin to stage magician trickery.
