POWERS AND ABILITIES: The Avenger Quicksilver!

  Now that we know the character Quicksilver will be played by Aaron Taylor-Johnson in the upcoming Avengers: Age of Ultron (2015) movie as well as by Evan Peters in X-Men: Days of Future Past (2014) but what are his abilities, powers or even his name? Well, according to Marvel Wiki, this is his background:    

NAME

Pietro Django Maximoff

 

KNOWN RELATIVES

Wanda Maximoff (Scarlet Witch, sister), Lorna Dane (Polaris, half sister), Magnus (Magneto, father), Magda (mother, deceased), Django Maximoff (adoptive father), Marya Maximoff (adoptive mother, deceased), Crystal (wife), Maximoff, Luna (daughter), Medusa (sister-in-law), Black Bolt, Gorgon, Karnak, Triton, Maximus (cousins by marriage), Vision (ex-brother-in-law).

 

POWERS

Quicksilver possessed superhuman speed, and could travel on foot at speeds exceeding the speed of sound for hundreds of miles before tiring; he could "fly" for short distances by flapping his arms or "vibrating" his legs; he could also use his speed to create cyclones, dodge machine gun and laser fire, and run up walls and across water. When the High Evolutionary's Isotope E upgraded his powers, he did not know the true limits of his speed.

Following the loss of his mutant nature, Quicksilver exposed himself to the Terrigen Mists, resulting in him now possessing the power to vibrate his atoms so quickly he travels forward in time. His molecular speed that he generates displaces him out of the mainstream time/space so that he is able to propel himself into the future. He can leap from thirty seconds to up to twelve days, and remain for several minutes to several hours before being recalled to his present time once his body tires, or he can return at will before his time is up. As he returns from his trip, he returns the exact moment he left so as to appear that he has been gone for half a nano-second. He is able to bring inorganic objects from the future back to his correct time, although it has yet been shown what would happen if he attempted to bring organic objects with him. These new powers are having an affect on his physical health. Each time he meets up with his future self (if indeed the person he meets is his future self), the future self looks more and more haggard.

After the incident on Genosha, Pietro continued to inhale the Mists of Terrigen and has apparently obtained the power, with the shards of the Mists in his hands, to restore other mutants’ powers.

ABILITIES

Quicksilver was trained by Captain America in hand-to-hand combat
