Codename: Volt
Age: 18
Mutant Ability: Electricity manipulation. When David is near an open source of electricity, he starts to crave it.When he starts absorbing electricity, it gets harder to resist. When he uses his powers at all, his whole body is almost consumed in electricity due to his lack of control. He does have a naturally high amount of electricity flowing through him that he can use if needed, but his action will not be as strong and will physically tire him if he uses too much. He can heal using electricity, but must be using an outside source. He can't send out just a single arc strike, but instead must send out large amounts of electricity at a time. He also has developed a split personality when enough electricity is absorbed, dubbed Freakshow. Once it gets to the point to where his bones start to be able to be seen through his skin, Freakshow is taking over. This alter ego is crazy, and will kill everything. To stop him, he must be drained dry, by either using his power up or being drenched in water. David can overpower him if enough emotion is put behind it. With training and the right amount of control, he can learn to do the following: Use the electricity to tighten muscles/increase muscle strength , create a wall/shield of electricity that incinerates oncoming projectiles, and sense out electricity nearby.
Extra Abilities: David was the star football player, and as such has an athletic build. Even though he was a sports star, he was very interested in academics, and came 2nd in his class.
Appearance:
David has dark brown hair an hazel eyes. His hairstyle is short. His expression is that of a soft and peaceful one, always having a very slight smile and a calm look in his eyes. He stands 6 feet tall.

Personnel History: David has been a mostly normal boy his whole life. His mother, who was abusive, left when he was 10. The only memories he has of her are her calling him a loser and a failure. His father raised him alone, and they did a lot together. Eveery sunday during the summer they would go fishing. David was a great athlete from when he started baseball at 8, to his high school football career. He was also an exceptional student, being only outsmarted by some girl who he never liked. There was no sign of his mutation until his high school graduation. It was held in a nice bulding, with a big stage. When David walked up to the stage and was about to givehis speech, he noticed large wires that were running under the stage, and could be seen through an open latch that was meant for maintnance. One of the wires was stripped. He zoned out, and had this strange urge to touch it. He walked over to it, confusing everyone. when he reached to touch it, an arc hit his finger. After a second, the arc got bigger. A few seconds after that, all the wires were shooting out electriccity at David. He was covered in electricity, and it was shooting off of him in all directions. The crowd screamed and ran. He started to hear a voice in his, a whisper at first, then it was yelling "I'm taking over!". David lost control, and Freakshow started frying everything in sight. The the crowd all pretty much left before Freakshow came fully into control. Everyone left but one, his father. His father walked up to the stage to try and stop is son, but Freakshow struck him in his rampage. David, realizing what had happened, overpowerd Freakshow. David ran to his father, but it was too late.
The police arrived and took him into custody. He was given temporary insanity and was put into the care of Xavior's School.
