Immediately after the events of Inferno, Taki has lost much of his power and could only create objects that he can imagine in detail.  For instance, he would have to know how to design a computer to create one.  This will normally necessitate a Yellow or Red Reason FEAT roll, although simple objects (such as wheeled vehicles, simple projectile weapons, etc.) may require either a Green FEAT roll or no roll whatsoever based on the simplicity of the object in question.

Spell Casting:  Taki has been driven to determine how much control his manipulations can have.  Currently, Taki can control Universal energies at Remarkable rank and Dimensional energies at Excellent.  He can increase the power of the magical effects one rank for every two ranks of control.  This means that with Shift-0 control he can invoke a Monstrous rank, or with Feeble control invoke an Incredible Dimensional spell.

Flight/Hover: Incredible.  The shell allows travel through any atmosphere, hydrosphere, and vacuum.
Environmental Independence: Incredible.  This allows the shells occupants to survive in hostile environments, including underwater and in space.
Armor: Incredible protection from all attacks.
Dimensional Aperture: Remarkable

These abilities are imbued into the shell, and are self-renewing.

He now also has Occult Lore, Runesmith and Demonologist.

Techno-Wiz has helped, on occasion, the mutant teams when concerning mystical and extra-demensional matters.

At St. Simons, Taki encountered the mutants Leech and Artie Maddicks who had been sent there by X-Factor.  At that time the demon N'astirh had been sent to Earth by S'ym to find children of power.  Leech and Artie were kidnapped and Taki's mutant power manifested for the first time when he transformed his wheelchair into a battlewagon to fight the goblins.  His inexperience and Leech's power-nullifying abilities allowed him to be defeated and the goblins escaped.

When the teachers refused to believe his story, Taki called in the other youthful protégés of X-Factor (Rusty, Skids, Boom-Boom, and Rictor).  Together they traveled to New York City but Taki was kidnapped by N'astirh's goblin minions.  N'astirh believed that Taki could create a computer that could handle the magic spells which N'astirh needed to open a gateway between Limbo and Earth.  Taki was able to, but stalled for time until the X-Terminators could arrive and rescue the babies that N'astirh was using to open a pentagram to Limbo.

In the final confrontation between N'astirh and S'ym, N'astirh allowed himself to be infected with the trans-mode virus which affected him in a way so that he could use Taki's computer whereas previously his demonic nature prevented him from doing so.  In a last ditch effort Taki caused the computer he had created to revert back to normal.  N'astirh, who was linked to the computer, was completely obliterated.

This effort cost Taki some of his power, limiting his abilities to transmute non-organics.  He, Artie, and Leech returned to St. Simons where Taki is still attempting to overcome his dyslexia while perfecting his abilities.

During the cleanup after Inferno, Doctor Strange was made aware of the involvement in the defeat of N'astirh and decided to keep an eye on the youth.  Taki, meanwhile continued to secretly practice using mystical energies.  One such experiment would have meant disaster if not for the intervention of the Sorcerer Supreme, who decided that supervised instruction would be preferable to self-experimentation.
