What i'd like to add: Lord Vile has basically no Feats, however, quite a lot of them are around Wall Level to Small Building Level, this will be covering DeathBringer, so Darquesse is isn't that strong, hell, she's even weaker than a few accelerator boosted fodder (they aren't fodder, but compared to normal Darquess they are).
I am going to cut some dialogue out for the sake of space.
Punched her into the ground hard enough to wreck the ground:
He ducked under the punch and grabbed her low, lifting her off her feed, taking her to the grass. His fists came down, battering her face. She tried to wrap her legs around his waist but his armour expanded, keeping her from locking her ankles together. His fists were hammers, driving her into the ground, the earth giving way beneath her. An extraordinary sensation.
Withstood a headbutt hard enough to break boulders:
She reached up with one hand, her fingers gripping his armour, and she pulled him down to her as she rose up, slamming her forehead into his armour-plated face with enough force to break boulders. Vile swayed slightly and she heaved herself out of the depression, flipping them both over, just like Skulduggery had taught her. Had taught Valkyrie. Whatever.
Blasts strong enough to melt metal and turn concrete to dust only stagger him:
The energy that enveloped him would have turned rock to dust, but all it did to Vile was set him staggering to the metal shutter covering the shop window. The shutter melted, the glass shattered and another alarm rang out. Darquesse leaped to the top of the steps and she barged into him, taking them both through the window into the shop.
Slams into a road hard enough to churn it up:
She tried to look down at what they were flying towards but the wind was blowing her hair in the way. She wrapped her legs around Vile's waist, grabbed him where she could, and flipped, so that now she was the pilot forcing him down. And now that her hair was out of the way, she could see what they were heading towards. O'Connell Street, in the middle of Dublin.
Darquesse lay there in the broken road, looking up at the suddenly starless sky in the last few moments of her life, and she managed a shaky laugh.
Lord Vile lay a few feet away. He wasn't moving.
Headlights swept in and she turned. A taxi slowed to a stop, and the driver got out. He looked at her, looked at Vile, looked at the churned-up road.
Resists Magic from Kitana, who's stronger than him:
Kitana waved her arm and Vile flew backwards, smashing through the wall. She reached out with both hands, straining, and Vile contorted amid the rubble. Magic twisted the spaces between them, invisible to the human eye but oh so obvious to Darquesse, who saw things much more clearly. Kitana was trying to tear Vile apart. It was fascinating to see, this girl with so much undeserved power going up against a weaker but more skilled opponent. And she was trying so hard, bless her. Her teeth were gritted, muscles were straining, and sweat was starting to pour down her red face. She was putting everything she had into this, but Darquesse's brand-new partner still managed to hold himself together. What an impressive creature he was.
Shadow Manipulation easily overpower's Kitana's Gang, each of which are stronger than him:
Doran grinned, oblivious to the shadows coiling behind him. Vile emerged silently. Darquesse wanted to shout encouragement to him. He didn't know that they no longer had their force fields. He couldn't see magic as Darquesse saw magic. She tried to tell him to just go for it, destroy the brain, but she had no mouth with which to speak.
Shadows wrapped round Doran's head and yanked him back. Kitana whirled, straight into a wave of darkness that drove her to the ground. Sean stumbled, panicking, and shadow-knives raked across his face, drawing blood.
Vile saw the blood and cocked his head, figuring it all out for himself.
Nearly kills Kitana with Shadow Manip:
Vile shadow-walked behind Kitana but she must have sensed him because she whirled, pushed him back against the wall, her fingers digging into his chest. Shadows snapped at her but she ignored them. She was trying to tear his armour off. Suddenly the armour parted, revealing the shirt and tie beneath, and Kitana uttered a laugh of triumph, mistakenly assuming she had won. Instead, the armour came back, slicing through her hands as it re-formed. Kitana staggered, her fingers dropping to the ground, and Vile struck her with a spiked fist, caving in half her face. He then sent a spear of darkness into her throat, pinning her to the wall. Vile was about to take her head off when Sean dived at him. Kitana fell to her hands and knees and Vile flipped Sean over his hip.
Vile also stomped Bliss, who is far stronger than Duggery, and a bunch of Cleavers, and is undoubtedly the strongest of the Three Generals by scaling alone.
