Alchemy[]
General Alchemy: Kimblee is capable of general transmutation that involves simply transmuting one object into another. Though he rarely uses this type of alchemy.[1]
Kimblee's alchemical explosions.
Alchemical Explosions: Kimblee specializes in a form of alchemy that causes alchemical explosions. Kimblee's right hand is tattooed with the sun symbol inside a upside-down triangle, and his left with the crescent moon inside a triangle. Representing Ying and Yang. When the triangles are placed on top of one another, they combine to form a hexagram. A symbol which represents all four of the basic elements (Earth, Fire, Water & Air). By putting the palms of his hands together, Kimblee creates a transmutation circle that causes explosive reactions. This alchemical energy can be directed over a certain distance before exploding.[2][3][4] Kimblee has developed unique methods to further utilize the destructive power of his alchemy. He can take a handful of small stones and release them as a multitude of flying debris upon throwing them. The velocity is great enough cause dents in metal.[5] When he is empowered by a Philosopher's Stone his destructive capability is increased greatly allowing him to destroy a area around the size of a half a mile within a large circle.[6] He also demonstrated the ability to extend this destructive force a quarter mile wide and miles long straight line.[7]
