Design Notes: I looked to the writeups of Namor and Namorita (in the Civil War and Civil War: Young Avengers / Runaways) for how to do Aqualad. One of the sticking points for MHR is the low level of granularity of powers. Aqualad is obviously in the "more than human" level of strength, but he's not, at least from what I've seen, all the way up to the Superhuman rank of strength.
