Lord Thymon had the ability to detect alterations to the fabric of [[the Multiverse]], being born of [[the Void]] itself. He could travel between realities at will, and had the ability to breathe fire. On one occasion, he disintegrated a [[Reality Bomb]] by turning it into a shower of confetti which, on closer examination, each resembled a clock face. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Lord Thymon and the Department of Problem-Solving (short story)|Lord Thymon and the Department of Problem-Solving]]'') He was telepathic and could reverse time at will, “undoing” events so that only himself and those around him would remember the prior course of time. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Magic Trick (novel)|Magic Trick]]'') Using hovering glyphs and eldritch chants, he could do this highly locally to heal an individual without erasing their memories of sustaining the injury.

Thymon once displayed the ability to project images of things he had seen on flat surfaces, with his eye acting as a projector. On the same occasion, he also claimed that he could have “shown [the [[Blue Feather]]<nowiki>]</nowiki> exactly what evil lies in the [[Gemstone Heart|hearts]] of [[Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids|Cupids]]”, though the Blue Feather operatives left rather than witness what this would have entailed.

Thymon was diligently working in the [[Cupid Post Office]] when the magic rabbits summoned by [[the Hat]] started to make themselves known. Given his standards of reference for cuteness and normality, he found the creatures utterly ghastly and ran out of the building in terror. Subsequently, he used his powers to hold off the tidal wave of rabbits long enough for the [[Department of Problem-Solving]] and himself to take refuge in a warehouse. They stayed there for three days as the Cupids tried to think of a solution, with Thymon himself keeping himself entertained by playing with a Thymon Plushy. Eventually, the Cupids summoned [[Aphrodite#In the Prime Universe|Aphrodite]] (who did not care for Thymon, thinking of him as the sort of entity whom [[Zeus]] would have cast into [[Tartarus]] in the old days, but did not voice this discomfort explicitly or otherwise pick a fight). After Aphrodite foolishly opened the doors, causing a wave of rabbits to pour in, Thymon used his powers to reverse time by a few seconds to undo this foolish act. Now realising the gravity of the situation, Aphrodite was able to use her powers to make the rabbits and the Hat vanish.

On [[Halloween]] 2019, Thymon helped with the festivities, sticking paper cutouts in the shapes of bats to the walls of the [[Department of Postal Services' building]] using “unknowable eldritch powers, and also tape”. After the [[Spirit Realm Gateway]] broke and allowed [[the Great Ghost's legion]] into the Homeworld, the Cupids were all teleported to the [[Interdimensional Tavern]] by the [[Cupid Prime]] using the [[Emergency Transport Button]]. He followed them there by his own means, trying to “warn” them about the spirits, and ended up transporting them back when they realised they had to stop the spirits from stealing a flotilla of [[Fog Ship]]s, though this realisation came too late to actually stop them. When the ghosts returned to abduct [[Frankenstein-818]], Thymon tried to hold them back by speaking an eldritch incantation which caused a sustain beam of force to shoot out of his eye, but it was matched by the collective psionic power of the spirits and he ended up being the one to yield, having “forgotten the next word of the incantation” because he hadn't dare practice them, as he used to, in the Homeworld, for fear of causing damage to the structure of its reality.

When Lord Thymon fell asleep somewhere and dreamt, he tended to wake up to smoking ruins overrun with terrors plucked frm his subconscious as he slumbered, which was inconvenient. He once stayed at the [[Hilbert's|Interdimensional Hotel]] and noted that he could sleep ''there'' with no harmful effects on his surroundings. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Rifts Crisis Officially Over!
