Biography[]

Illusionist: The Claw has superhuman psychic abilities with which he can influence another person's sensory perceptions, causing that person to see, hear, & even feel the illusions the Claw projects into his or her mind. The Claw can also use these abilities to completely mesmerize a foe into obeying his will. In the past, this power has been shown to cause the most loyal of followers to turn on their leader in an instant. The Claw can release those under his command with a clap of his hands, leaving them with no recollection of what happened while under the Claw's control.

Super-Genius Intelligence: It is considered to be one of the smartest people on the planet. Chu is a genius in biochemistry, and, among his other achievements, he created the elixirs that prolong his life. He has also used this ability to create drugged cigarettes which, when smoked, will cause their user to enter a state of suspended animation resembling death, to which he alone possesses an antidote. In recent decades he has also made great strides in genetic engineering, enabling him to create monstrously mutated animals. The Claw also has considerable skill in robotics & cybernetics.

Master Martial Artist: The Claw is a master of the Chinese martial arts & a formidable hand-to-hand combatant. His battle prowess may have lessened somewhat recently, now that age has allegedly begun to catch up with him (unless he has found a new means to slows the aging process).
Mystical Knowledge: The Claw has considerable knowledge of sorcery, & has even proved able to reanimate the dead.
Master of Disguise: The Claw is also an effective master of disguise, having successfully disguised himself as a little old Caucasian man in the past.

In the comics, Plan Chu was an international spy responsible for the Atlas Foundation. During the 1950s, he was the primary antagonist of FBI agent Jimmy Woo, whom the Yellow Claw deemed a successor for his organization.
