Powers
Slowed Aging: Like his father, Zemo makes use of the
Compound X serum to retain his youth and vitality, despite his considerable
chronological age.
Abilities
Genius-level intellect: Helmut is a strategic and tactical
genius,
as well as a brilliant planner and organizer. He also has an impressive
scientific and inventive ability, but not at the level his father was.
Master Combatant: He is a masterful combatant, surpassing
his late father in physical skill and prowess, but is only slightly under the
level of Captain America.[75]
Expert Swordsman: He is a world-class fencer portraying
phenomenal skill with a rapier, medieval broadswords, and possibly other weapons
used in Medieval Europe.[76]
Expert Marksman: Helmut is an Olympic-level marksman with
firearms.[77]
Master Tactician: He is very skilled in field tactics, close
range combat, and even turning the tide of any debate that he is involved in to
his favor.
Master of Deception: Although he can be truthful in simple
conversations with his peers, it is hard to deduce what Helmut is really
thinking or planning in his mind. He can appear and appeal as an ally to any
villain or hero, but may simply be using them to do his bidding; it can vary
from using them as a shield against another foe, or even getting him past
security inside a highly secure structure such as the U.N. He has gone as far
as earning respect and acceptance from former enemies such as Captain America
in order to ensure the success of any scheme he hatches. Helmut Zemo is truly a
dangerous individual who will travel any distance to achieve his goals.[79]
Influential Expert: He is a dangerous influence to any
individual he meets. He has used his ability to morally change persons with
even the greatest of good intentions to ruthless human beings. His tactics have
sometimes even caused individuals to question their own morality, and judgment
towards other individuals.[80]
Paraphernalia
Equipment
Baron Zemo's Suit: He sometimes wears circuitry in his hood
guarding against psychic assault.[citation needed]
Adhesive X: Zemo occasionally uses weapons or traps
incorporating his father's Adhesive X, which forms an unbreakable bond with any
substance unless it is subjected to a special solvent.[81]
Moonstone: Zemo has usurped Karla Sofen's moonstones, alien
power gems which enable him to manipulate energy on a massive scale for effects
such as strength/durability augmentation, space warp creation, gravity
manipulation, light manipulation, molecular phasing, and more.[81]
Weapons
Baron Zemo's Sword: Zemo wields a sword.[82]
Zemo makes use of much of the same devices
invented by his father, including particle, formula, and adhesive X, as well as
his dad's disintegrator gun and anti-psychic headband. In close-combat, he
prefers an Adamantium sword. He also makes use of various energy weapons.

Strigoi in Romanian mythology are troubled spirits that are
said to have risen from the grave.[1] They are attributed with the abilities to
transform into an animal, become invisible, and to gain vitality from the blood
of their victims. Bram Stoker's Dracula has become the modern interpretation of
the Strigoi
through their historic links with vampirism.
One of the earliest mentions of a historical strigoi was
Jure Grando Alilović (1579–1656) from the region of Istria. The villager is
believed to have been the first real person described as a vampire because he
was referred to as a strigoi, štrigon or štrigun in contemporary local
records.[7] Grando is supposed to have terrorized his former village sixteen
years after his death. Eventually he was decapitated by the local priest and
villagers. The Carniolan scientist Johann Weikhard von Valvasor wrote about
Jure Grando Alilović's life and afterlife in his extensive work The Glory of
the Duchy of Carniola when he visited Kringa during his travels.[8][9] This was
the first written document on vampires.
Grando was also mentioned in writings by Erasmus Francisci
and Johann Joseph von Goerres (La mystique divine, naturelle, et diabolique,
Paris 1855), whose story was much more elaborate, full of fantastic details to
make the story more interesting and sensational. In modern times, Croatian
writer Boris Perić has researched the legend and written a book (The Vampire)
on the story.[9]
The strigoi can be a living man, born under certain
conditions:
Be the seventh child of the same sex in a family
Lead a life of sin
Die without being married
Die by execution for perjury
Die by suicide
Die from a witch's curse
The strigoi are said to be bald on top of the head, does not
eat garlic and onions, avoids incense, and towards the feast of Saint Andrew he
sleeps outside. Its spine is elongated in the form of a tail, covered with
hair.
If there is a drought in a village, it means that there is a
strigoi that prevents the rains. If it rains with stones (hail), God punishes
the strigoi who does not let "clean rain fall", and if it rains with
sun, it is believed that one of the strigoi has been killed.
The strigoi take the milk from the cows, take the manna of
the wheat, the strength of the people, stop the rains, bring hail and bring
death among men and cattle. On Saint George's day (April 23), the boys water
the girls so that they don't suffer from strigoi, but also so that they don't
turn into these creatures.
To kill them, the grave of the supposed strigoi is searched
and the order is read to him by the priests and an oak, yew or ash branch is
struck in his heart, it is pierced with a nail or a knife, to remain bound of
the coffin and not being able to go out to do mischief.
