Documented Superpowers

I fry watches, which is my mine has a nylon strap that goes between it and my skin. This makes it die more slowly. But I can also cause clocks to scatter time just by walking into a room. We once watched three timepieces separate -- some speeding and some slowing -- in just a few minutes.

When I take my clothes off in a dark room, sometimes I make a thunderstorm of dancing blue sparks.

Yeah, I can send a shockwave zapping through several people. I was bemused to read that a taser jolt travels less than a foot through human flesh.

Fascinating. The amperage of my static must be higher than average then. It's not unusual for sparks to leave pink spots on my skin, or occasionally someone else's. Blisters are rare but I've had that happen. (I wore that piece of metal jewelry in the winter once.) Most people don't seem to raise enough of a spark to do anything.

>>The pink spots are plasma burns, produced by localised heating of the skin... and yeah, to get that you'd have to be generating 10-20 milliamps, and at least a thousand volts. That's 3 or 4 times more than average.<<

Fascinating. Any idea what minimum (in temperature or milliamps) it takes to raise a small blister? That was with me wearing rhodium-plated chain and hematite beads over the back of my hand, on a day with a lot of electricity in the air, and then there was this store with a wool carpet and my then-very-young cousin got mischievous. I wound up with the netting imprinted in pink and a blister under every bead.

On the less-harmful side, I can control the light flow inside a plasma ball without actually touching the glass or setting it to audio response mode. My field is strong enough to make the plasma flow react, usually half an inch to an inch away with my fingertips. With my palm above the top of the glass, I can call all the discharge upward, too.

>>So.. Electra as a super-hero name?<<

I'm not actually a lightning elemental, though. That's just one aspect of a hyperdeveloped personal energy field.

And Reality-Wrecking-Ball is so much less elegant.
