Powers and abilities

As Glamor, Glynis has the ability to control the density of her body’s molecules, either increasing or decreasing her mass much as the Vision can do. By reducing her mass, Glamor can become intangible. She also has the ability to separate her body into segments without harm to herself, and rejoin the segments to regain her normal form.
