Sinestro

Once considered the greatest Green Lantern in any sector, Sinestro came to believe that the only way to ensure order in the universe was through the reign of fear, a crime for which the Guardians banished him to Qward. There he created the first yellow power ring and later on founded his own corps, The Sinestro Corps. He has clashed frequently with his former student and protege; Hal Jordan. The relationship between the two is a complicated one, a mixture of both hatred and respect in equal measures.

The Yellow Lantern Ring enables Sinestro to manipulate its energies through the use of fear.

The Yellow Lantern Ring gives Sinestro the following abilities:

Animating: A Sinestro Ring can will things to move how he wants. Artificial Intelligence: Every ring has a connection to the Main Battery on Qward, which taps into an artificial intelligence. It acts as an "on-board computer," telling the wearer what they need to know. It can either respond out loud, or silently directly to the wearer's mind. The AI contains a large database of information that may be crucial to a Lantern's success. The ring also translates nearly every language to and from the wearer (though they have difficulty translating profanity), which is why the Corps can communicate with each other. When the bearer of a Yellow Lantern ring dies, the ring will seek out a suitable replacement for their sector. The AI can be used to play a holographic playback sequence complete with colors across the spectrum based on information in memory banks. The ring can dictate when to pause or stop the playback should an interruption arise where the Lanterns undivided attention is needed. The AI can also alert the wielder of incoming threats or of attempts to manipulate the wielders construct by an outside party. Burglar Alarm: A Sinestro Lantern can coat anything with the ring's beam and thus, if anyone other than himself touches it, his ring will glow, alerting him to the possible theft. Communicator: The ring can act as a personal communicator between Sinestro's Lanterns. Costumes: The wearer of the ring may create any costume they choose, based on their personal preferences, whenever they choose. The ring projects the costume over any clothes already worn at the time. Energy Projection: The rings can also project beams, form protective bubbles and force fields, and fire destructive blasts. Sometimes, depending on the wearer, the beams and blasts make sounds. Energy Constructs: The rings can construct anything the wearer can imagine from hard-light energy, as long as they acknowledge fear to make it. The greater the fear the wearer can instill, the more complex and intricate these their constructs can be. The builds can even be so complex as to form working machines, computers, and even people. Flight: The ring allows the wearer to fly in atmosphere or in space, and can achieve incredible speeds, moving from planet to planet in a matter of hours. Invisibility: The ring can make the wearer or anything else invisible. Matter Manipulation: A Fear Lantern can use their ring to manipulate nearby matter, such as water, for various purposes such as a construct that acts like an energy construct but can block something yellow. Mind Control: The wearer of the Ring can use it to plant post hypnotic commands or control a person. Mirages: The Ring can create mirages/illusions. Phasing: The ring allows the user to go through walls. Energy Absorbing: Like all Lantern Rings a Sinestro Corpsmen can absorb and re-disperse energy by drawing out all that extra energy from most any source to refuel itself. Probing: The ring can probe the Lantern's or another person's mind, allowing him to uncover memories or the person's thoughts. Radiation: Besides light based radiation used to create the energy constructs associated with a Green Lantern, the ring can simulate various forms of radiation. Recharging: The rings need to be recharged by means of a Power Battery. Other large sources of power may be used to recharge a power ring, however effectiveness may vary. Fear Inducement/Augmentation: The core capacity of a fear lantern is to instill and aggregate incredible amounts of fear within any and all hosts it's power happens upon. The power only works on the direct emotion of fear allowing them to create the energy constructs of a opponent's worst nightmare. Also, once that fear is exposed, the ring's ability allows the wielder to amplify the fear to the point of irrationality and true horror on the part of victim and conversely empowering the ring wielder. Ring Duplication: Each ring can duplicate itself, creating a second ring which may be given to another as a backup, for protection, or to help the lantern in times of great need. Temperature Control: The Ring can increase or decrease the temperature of anything, even something as large as stars, or even create bubbles of intense heat or cold, even down to Absolute Zero. Transforming: The ring can transform anyone or anything, be it into an animal, altering their state of appearance, or their size. Electro-magnetic scanning: The ring can allow(through the use of x rays) the user to see through walls, without the people on the other side knowing. it can also scan along the Electromagnetic spectrum. Wormhole/Warps: The ring can open wormholes to cut down on distance. Time travel: The ring allows the wielder the ability to travel through time, though the process requires great willpower. Healing: A wielder can command a ring to heal him/her/itself of any injures incurred. It can also heal others. Energy twin: The ring can create an energy copy of the wielder which is connected to the ring wielder, any information the twin gathers is transferred to the wielder upon touch while others cannot see this twin apart from fellow Green Lanterns. Pocket dimension: Within the ring is a pocket dimension which can altered to the wielders specification. Sub-routines: The power rings have inner programmings or mechanisms which can executed without the users permission. One such sub-routine is the autoshield. This shield automatically protects a wielder from external harm and has been proven to be capable of protecting the wielder from planetary level attacks. Paralax Empowerment: Sinestro now has the ability to wield the power of the Fear Entity Paralax. As the host to the Paralax entity Sinestro is able to use the abilities of the Sinestro Power Ring on a much larger scale. When empowered by it he is given the sum total of the energies that provades fear throughout the Universe, in some ways changing how his abilities in turn were based upon to a more metaphysical nature as Sinestro ties and binds the entity of fear to his very being making him one of the most powerful beings in existence.
