Dr. Sunder

Powers
In short, Sunder uses a unique type of electrical discharge into a corpse to bring it back to life. At the point of reanimation, Sunder is given a chance to rewire the electrical signals in the subject brain. They resurrect believing they are whoever the Doctor decides they are. Though this power is useful and powerful, the doctor is a pacifist and has no real combat skills.

Backstory


Doctor Sutherland was an ambitious man, his time spent alone doing research in the field of electricity during the late 1800’s. He saw beyond the obvious applications of this relatively new science. He wanted to push the limits, and see how pure and powerful condensed energy effected the stability of reality. But like a moth to the flame he was doomed to be burned. Foolhardiness left him in the line of fire of his biggest experiment yet. 100 million volts of electricity burnt him apart in a tenth of a moment. His body became sundered, cracked and separated, but at the same time super charged with energy, the immense conduction and electro-static keeping the pieces together. Dr. Sunder was born.

At first he revelled in his accidental discovery, but soonturned to dismay as the consequences loomed. Electric bursts with everything he touched sending his equipment flying. His appearance altered, and voice unrecognisable. Dr Sunder was no stranger to solitude, he vowed to cure himself or die trying. But soon enough he discovered neither was an option.



One hundred years pass. Still alone Dr. Sunder brooded in darkness. His head perks up as the television reports of a virus which is killing virtually everyone it comes in contact with.

The cruelness of it all…

Death had not come for him. Not yet. Another year he sits in silence. Absolute silence; the television dead. A noise stirs him. He peeks out the door for the first time in months to be utterly surprised. Humans, but not like before! These were all different, in very unique ways. Slowly he approached them; his appearance didn’t unsettle them or scare them off in anyway. Muted in awe, Sunder merged in with the small group. Having finally noticed him they asked his business. Still mute Sunder was unable to reply. This suspicious party chained him and explained he was being taken to their faction: The Leader-Kin.

The Leader-Kin were impressed with Sunder’s talents and requested his aid in their cause against the dangerous other factions lurking in the waste. Sunder paused as he eyed the very powerful looking folk currently in his company. “On one condition” he said, “When you no longer need me, you will help me to die…
