Put simply: Deus was born with a mental illness, making him smart but dangerous and dysfunctional. Then he got specific superpowers that ''cured'' this condition, and while they're active he's functionally a genius. This is even more effective than simply having powers that boost his intelligence, because when his powers are on standby, his condition causes him to think about refining his plans from a patient and (relatively) normal viewpoint ''all the time'', overcoming the pitfalls of TooCleverByHalf and allowing him to apply complex subjects in ways that the typical EvilGenius will overlook.

Recent (as of the time of writing) comics have revealed that [[spoiler: the orbs were actually found by Sydney in the Yucatan Peninsula, right where the K-T Event happened where the meteor that wiped out the dinosaurs impacted, and that superpowers are the result of an Nth species creating a universal background field that [[HumansAreSpecial humans just so happen to have a perfect decoder for inside of their very DNA]]]]. With Dabbler and Deus both indicating that [[spoiler: the creator of the orbs and the creator of the Superion Field are one and the same]], it seems to be a very real possibility that [[spoiler: the K-T Event's meteor contained the orbs as well as either creating some sort of field around Earth that caused people to evolve so that they can utilize the Superion Field, or had some proto-biological lifeform that mixed with the survivors of the K-T Event - mammals - and hid the decryptor for superpowers inside of their DNA until it reemerged recently.]]

Chtillia's only featured power so far was using her gaze to induce a heart-attack in Indinge Sr., and she later remarks to Sciona that [[https://grrlpowercomic.com/archives/comic/grrl-power-531-the-gangs-all-here/ she's extremely ugly]]. That combined with her scaly skin hints that she's likely a Gorgon - though since she's also the only one of her kind she's aware of, there's no telling what that would ''mean''.

[[WMG: The Green Orb is a general purpose Life Support orb, not just a rebreather]]
Short version, in addition to generating fresh air the orb can also do things like maintaining temperature in extreme environment since the shield orb allowing light and sound to pass through suggests that there is some level of energy exchange with the surroundings, even when the shield is up.
