    Description;Zeke is a scrawny, unkempt looking guy. His body looks around 12 years of age, but he has an unbelievably high threshhold for pain. His face is covered in scars. The most prominent scar is from ear to ear, crossing the middle of his mouth and leaving a knotch in each cheek. If he would ever bother to smile, it would give him a frighteningly deformed grin. His wardrobe usually consists of old black jeans, an overcoat, and black rubber golashes. Chaotic, confused berserking child imbued with strange, supernatural forces; as likely to attack the senshi as the enemy. Called "LctriKal SToRm."

Likes: Zeke likes it when he loses control of himself. Then he can stop feeling and thinking so much... He also likes electricity, metal, his pet, Gentle, industrial, techno, and visual kei bands.

Dislikes: He dislikes most everything else. He dislikes people (esp. ravers), his uncle (father's brother, his only living relative), himself.

Hobbies: He has developed a habit of hurting himself, be it emotionally, physically, or otherwise. He's very skilled at manipulating and playing with electricity. The thing that brings him the most pleasure is driving himself into a frenzy... usually with the end result of lots of property damage and serious injuries to everyone near him.

Personality:While Zeke is a very bitter person, and rarely speaks, he isn't what you would consider rude. Suprisingly, his social skills aren't terrible, either. He tries to be as polite as possible, though rarely has enough interaction with people to say or do much. He lacks compassion, but has an acute sense of sympathy, and is hyper-intelligent. He's very self-concerned, and has only a modicum of respect for life. Another thing, is that he's fairly apathetic and nihilistic; so sometimes in the middle of a brawl, he just stops caring and walks away. o_o His powers have done a number on his mind, so he's sometimes not operating on all six cylinders... which usually results in him being confused for a few days. He stays in his bed of wires, completly oblivious to the outside world. Or he'll wander the streets, not even stopping for traffic (He's been hit by cars quite a few times.) Nobody at work really notices his absences, anyway...

History:
In short, Zeke's life is a tragedy, which he finds hysterically funny. He's a Gen X-er through and through; he has the scars from childhood to prove it. His parents both grew up in the slums of Tokyo, and both were addicted to various forms of the drugs and vice available on the street. When he was 7 monthes old, his father, a particularly dangerous, drug-addicted schizophrenic, shot his mother while she was nursing the baby. He then took a razor blade to his only son, slicing him up pretty badly before slitting his own wrists. Zeke's uncle found them in the dark apartment a day later, the baby cradled in the gashed arms of it's father. His uncle, an alcoholic, child-abusing pervert, raised him up until Zeke was old enough to run away without being caught. Finding a place to stay and a job proved to not be too difficult; a single room, cramped flat, and a job as a custodian at a dirty, corrupt bank sufficed.

His fascination with electricity began when he was young, and ever since he was 'enlightened' with these powers, he has developed an obsession of sorts... his apartment is crawling with electrical wires 'collected' (*coughcough*) from various places.

NPCS:Late one night, he came upon a twitching heap in the gutter. He picked it up, and after clawing and shredding the skin of his arm and face, the creature calmed down. When he finally got a look at it, it wasn't quite clear what it was. It looked like the deformed bastard of an electric eel, a rat, and a foot long tadpole. It was about the size of his forearm, which it gripped tightly, leaving a trail of blood as he brought it home. He cleaned it up, and tried to feed it; it turned away fruit, meat, condiments, liquor, and even his own blood, though it was willing to atleast sit in it's bowl of water. He went to sleep, wondering if the thing would be dead by morning. To his suprise, when he woke, the thing was on the ceiling, wrapped around the lightbulb (which was off), apparently asleep. When he looked around the room, he noticed that every metal piece had been gnawed on slightly... The doorknob, the various chain and bolt locks, doorhinges, screws on the light switches, buckles on his jacket... He looked up at the thing, and noticed that it hadn't really been asleep, but carefully gnawing on the glass of the lightbulb, trying to break in. Completly bewildered, Zeke continued to watch, until finally the bulb burst and glass went flying everywhere. The creature made an almost cackling noise, looked down at Zeke, and said.."N.e.e.d...t.u.n.g.s.t.e.n...t.o...l.i.v.e...," afterwhich it completly devoured the tungsten of the bulb. Thusly began the great friendship between Zeke and Gentle, which the creature later told him was her name.

Transformation: Y'know werewolves? How their changes are synced with the changes in the phases of the moon? Zeke's transformations are dependant around the changes in weather. His motives for unleashing his powers upon the city and her people are much like a bloodlust of sorts, which he can't help. According to the situation that the city's weather is in, the powers that Zeke has been blessed domain over (or which the powers that have been blessed domain over Zeke...) are channeled into his spirit and body, frying his brain and sending him into a supraconscious state. His physical appearance changes, and his personality is shoved behind whatever power posesses him. This state can last anywhere from a few minutes to weeks at a time.

The transformation itself takes anywhere from the blink of an eye to almost a day of long, excruciating, painful distortions of his body until the power has found it's most comfortable way of inhabiting his body. His skin is replaced by a solid-electricity net of wires and webs, constantly snaking around him and pulsating. The scars in his face are ripped open, revealing a pulsing blue light from within; the scar across his mouth opens, and his smile is stretched to the size of his face. Speaking in crackling whispers, his breath becomes currents of sparks, and his tongue looks like liquid lightening. His personality then affects the appropriate changes to his garb to present the person that we all love and know as LctriKal SToRm.

When he reverts back to his normal state, he moans, shudders, and curls up into the fetal position. His skin turns to ash, and either falls off or blows away to reveal the human form of Zeke, somewhat fatigued.

Uniform: He wears plain black golashes, black jeans, black rubber gloves, rubber coif with a wire mesh face guard, and he always carries around a roll of electrical tape, which he binds around his torso and forearms.

Powers/Attacks:

He has the potential to wield complete and utter control over electricity in all it's forms, but that sort of mastery would take a degree of control which he simply does not possess. He's found out a few nifty parlor tricks at his disposal while transformed...

Anything wood he touches is set on fire. Anything metal he touchs that isn't grounded is charged, so that anything else touching it is electrocuted. Anything except things that are protected by heavy duty rubber or some other similar non-conductor is severely damaged.

He is nearly invisible to all magical, mental, spiritual, and technological detection automatically, and can cloak himself visually with little effort.

As he discovered with various strays and a homeless man whom he'd accidentally killed, he can bring animals and people back to life with a touch. However, it leaves him very drained, and he immediatly reverts to his normal human state.

EMP. BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA-- er, ahem.

He can create a net or fence of electricity, trapping anything or anyone within the boundaries of the fence. By using this power and various manipulations of magnetic currents, he has also been able to levitate small(gun sized) to medium objects (bicycle)-- he tried it with an animal. Sadly, froggy go die die.

Weapon: He LOVES his weapon; it's one of his most important posessions, and he feels naked without it. It looks like a half-circle, with blades shooting out from the inside to create a comb of blades. It's the length of his arm and width of his forearm.

Miscellaneous: He was originally dubbed by the HUGE raver community of Tokyo, which sort of developed a cult of worship because his appearance created quite a few interesting light shows; This drew alot of unwanted attention, so now he abhors ravers and has been known to attack flocks of them. The news stations picked up the name "LcktriKal SToRm," and he's never been able to get rid of the name, though he doesn't mind it as much as before because of the fear it strikes in the heart of the ravers. He is kind of wishy-washy when it comes to taking sides... Though while he loves manipulating electricity, he doesn't do it to people. This means that most of his interactions with the other characters would be honest and true to whatever impulse he felt at that moment.
