- Genre Savvy: Knowing Jade wants to go with him on missions, he lies that he's going to a conference on Feng shui in Minnesota, and invites her to come. This has the desired effect as she declines the offer. Jade finds out about Jackie’s mission anyway when she sees him on a news report and uses the Rabbit Talisman to go to his location.
- Gravity Master: Tso Lan's power, and it's even powerful to allow him to move the moon out of its orbit, potentially devastating the Earth's landscape.
