He gets a degree in electrical engineering, then joins the army. He volunteers for some research into mutant powers and finds himself becoming the subject of some experiments. After a series of events his abilities with the manipulation and now, creation, of electricity have increased dramatically. He becomes capable of a broad range of powers a) his physical and mental state has improved somewhat through control of his own bioelectric field (explanation for 48 point buy that all characters get) but his speed has increased considerably (lightning quick) b) he can generate vast amounts of electricity, c) still has good skills with electrical equipment and d) has some electromagnetic abilities, shorting out electric equipment with electromagnetic pulses and short range manipulation of metal objects.Problems though that he has is a) a fear of open areas and crowds (kept in a confined space during research), b) he can't touch anything unless wearing special clothing otherwise stuff gets electrocuted (contributing to his fear of crowds), c) he's a superconductor and when electricity is present (ie. thunderstorm) more than often it'll go for him (getting struck by lightning and having electricity arc between him and the powerlines above his head are a contibuting factor to his fear of open areas), d) when struck by lightning and such he can become 'over-charged', resulting in convulsions and hefty amounts of electric charge, electromagnetic waves and radiation being given off until he's back to normal levels and e) he can become undercharged, when too much charge has been given off he can pass out or go into a coma until he's recharged himself, or in serious cases he drains charge from around him, draining bioelectricity from people around him and causing brownouts.Well that seems to be it, tell me what you think. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
