Re: Characteristics of Nirvana?
This kind of answers my question:
"While no Buddha is a creator of the universe or its suffering, as they are naturally and collectively and individually sustained by the karma we create, the Buddhas have perfect compassion (omnibenevolence) for all beings and wisdom (omniscience) of all physical and mental phenomena. Although they do not have boundless power (omnipotence) to eradicate all suffering in one go, they are nevertheless the most powerful ones possible – with immeasurable meritorious virtues and inconceivable supernormal powers from total mastery of their minds. "

HH Dalai Lama on the 4 aspects of Nirvana.
BTW, it sounds more like you're asking about the qualities of the trikaya or of the 6 or 10 powers of a Buddha.
