Abstract: In this paper we compute the total power operation for the Morava $E$-theory of any finite group up to torsion. Our formula is stated in terms of the $G{L}_n(Q_p)$-action on the Drinfeld ring of full level structures on the formal group associated to $E$-theory. It can be specialized to give explicit descriptions of many classical operations. Moreover, we show that the character map of Hopkins, Kuhn, and Ravenel from $E$-theory to $G{L}_n(Z_p)$-invariant generalized class functions is a natural transformation of global power functors on finite groups.
