Personality: Nigel enjoys the fun life. He is a very casual person, keeping his cool in most situations. While he is not as trigger happy as many he's encountered, he's always willing to throw a punch in a good brawl. However he is more likely to try to barter his way out of any given situation. A hacker, he loves technology of all kinds, and keeps his stock of tech magazines up to date. Few things trouble him in life, and he lives for the rush of it.

Description: Nigel is tall, thin, and light footed. He has a body like a runner, and would have made an excellent free runner or martial artist. He has a variety of clothes that changes constantly, usually the latest and greatest.

Weapons: Nigel is mostly a hand to hand fighter, but he has a boot knife and a single metal rod he uses together with his unique abilities.

Abilities: By manipulating electromagnetic fields, Nigel can produce electricity, using his own body as a conductor of sorts. Able to use lightning and electronic blasts, he can also create small EMP's. Furthermore, he can link up with the electronic signals of a computer network, allowing him to delve into computers and enhance his hacking skills. He can charge metallic objects with electricity, which he often does with his metal rod he carries. He can "cast" lightning if he is near a strong power source.

History: Nigel grew up living two lives; the peaceful stay-at-home family life that he so adored, with the darker underground hacker life that he was so drawn to. He learned about his powers from an early age, since he would cause minor localized power shortages whenever he felt an extreme emotion. He learned, over time, to control this ability, and learned the various ways he could use it. He got drawn into the world of cyber hacking, and got introduced to a bad crowd. A gang of mutants and unique, gifted individuals such as himself, that used his powers to make their life more satisfying.
