LYDIA, ROSE, FAUST
18//FEMALE//HOMOSEXUAL//ELECTROMANCY//STUDENT//PEYTON LIST
POWER INFO:Lydia's mutation revolves around ambient absorption and redirection of energy into electricity, this causes her body to constantly have an electric field surrounding it, it is mostly low level, expect when she is feeling very emotional or wills it to expand it can widen rapidly. She is also never without electricity, she absorbs ambient energy constantly throughout the day.
If the expansion of energy is rapid enough and uncontrolled, it can be catastrophic, she will instantly pass out and pass a massive electric charge to the surrounding area, this is the only time when she will actually need to rest for an extended period of time before using her mutation again and this is because the strain that it puts on her body, she will feel weakened and will be emotionally distraught. It's worth noting that the electricity isn't really high enough to damage a person badly on it's own, it can stun them at best unless they're holding onto something particularly conductive. Also, if it touched anything flammable it could set it off.
She can redirect the energy within her as bursts of electricity, this can range from anywhere as minor shock that can take out an automated lock, to a concentrated beam of electricity that can blow up a truck. If she uses this too much though, she will become tired and weak. Needing to rest while her body compensates recharging from the environment.
Lydia's mutation revolves around the absorption of energy, as a result, if you fired a blast of energy at her, she would take considerably less damage it and it would probably charge her up more (Electricity would give her the most energy, as conversion is not required, and also do little to no damage to her.). However, she CANNOT absorb kinetic energy, so concussive blasts or strong blows would still affect her like a normal person. It's worth noting that direct heat will still burn her as normal.
Lydia has the potential for generation and manipulation of electro-magnetic energy, but her mutation is not yet advanced enough to accommodate, and neither is her control over her basic mutation, which is dubious at best.
Lydia can swim. However recently has been scared of it, if her field gets too high or if she discharges herself in water, she will actually burn herself or pass out if the charge is high enough.
If Lydia absorbs electricity directly in a high enough amount, her body metabolises it extra fast, temporarily supercharging her reflexes and powers. This would have to be a high voltage, so either from a generator or a lightning bolt. Something short of that will probably have little to know notable effect. (Lydia's eyes also spark electricity when her power is active or she is particularly mad. This doesn't do much other than advertise that her power is actively doing something or she is mad.)
GENERAL APPEARANCE: Lydia is a 16 year old blonde girl who is fairly slender and pale, she stands at about 5'7", has sparkling hazel eyes and has fairly sporadic, agitated posture due to her ADHD. She mostly wears skinny jeans and tops with various game jokes on them. She either wears her hair back over her shoulders, or up in a pony tail.
MUST HAVE APPAREL:Lydia normally has a dark blue hair band tied around her wrist, it's heavily elastic and resistant to electricity, so wouldn't be ruined by her power.
PERSONALITY: Lydia is known for being incredibly impulsive. She doesn't like remaining still, so people have classed her as ADHD, in fact, funnily enough the term 'Static' suits her rather well. In addition to being impulsive, she has quite a bad temper and although she is at heart, a very kind person, if someone insults her friends or hurts them she becomes furious, that coupled with her mutation and her slightly poor level of control over it makes for an explosive combination.
She loves to read, a ridiculous amount. In fact, it is literally one of the only things she can sit still and do for an extended amount of time doing. The only other thing, is working with computers, she loves it. And she is good at it. VERY good at it. Lydia figures out technology like it's part of her hand.
Deep down, she is a very caring and warm person, she can just occasionally comes across as easily angered or volatile. But to people who know her, the real her. She is always doing her best to smile and be friendly around.
She is scared to let people get close to her sometimes... physically. Because she has been known to give people rather nasty shocks when she is in a bad mood.
EXTRA QUIRK: ADHD not being stillness?

WORTHY MENTIONS:
CHILDHOOD:Lydia was born to a small family in Nevada, specifically in Las Vegas. She did not have any siblings and her father was almost always away on buisiness trips. They had a comfortable family life and she spent most of her childhood life either at school, reading or playing games on her computer.
ADOLESCENCE: Around the time she was 13, Lydia began to experiance strange things happening around her. It started with simply people around her getting stinging static shocks, a few of her friends joked that she was the cause of this as she had such a 'Sparky' personality, she didn't take well to this.
Lydia also began to notice around the age of 14, when all of her friends were talking about attractions to the opposite sex, that she didn't feel anything of the kind, which made her begin to question whether or not there was something wrong with her, combined with the fact that there were near constant power outages near her. She was getting annoyed.
Lydia spent gradually more and more time attached to her computer, either reading in her room, or she would sit at the keyboard typing away on various sites, also teaching herself how to write code at the same time.
Eventually her power surfaced fully, when she accidentally blew up the school computer's case when trying to fix it. Thankfully nobody saw, but she did. Soon after she became more stressed and she was giving more and more people static shocks when they touched her. She had an occasion when a guy from her computer club got a little to grabby and she accidentally tasered him with her hands.
Shortly after she stayed in her room for around 2 weeks, refusing to leave. When her mother tried to approach, she lost it and her field expanded and took out her street's power. Soon after the Bellfonte Acadamy contacted her family, and after a member of staff made a commute to see her, she was convinced and decided to attend the academy.
