Powers

 * Pseudo-Immortality: Being trapped in a paradox between life and death, Angus does not belong to both and thereby unfettered with the limitations of either (i.e. fatality).
 * "Zombie Mode": When in danger or in the midst of a violent confrontation, Angus's zombie characteristics fully surface, causing his eyes to turn into those of a zombie and allowing him to perform incredible feats.
 * Enhanced Strength/Agility: When in "full blown zombie mode", Angus's physical strength and speed are enhanced.

Weaknesses

 * Hunger for Brains: Since he is a zombie, he must feed on brains at least once a month to keep his humanity and survive, otherwise he becomes "dumber" and more like a proper zombie.
 * Adrenaline: A zombies abilities are triggered by adrenaline. Making it hard to control and hard to hide.
