Veronica "Tesla" Fitzgerald

Once a scientist, Veronica Fitzgerald was exposed to the virus that was unleashed upon the world and her heart slowly began to fail. She was brought to hospital for immediate attention and after jumpstarting her heart again, she was exposed to electricity which was stored in her body and discharged, nearly killing her in the process. Veronica woke up to a slightly dark hospital room and scared responses from the staff. It came to her realization that without notice, she absorbed not only electricity from the equipment available in the room but also bioelectric power from the other patients.

Later after hospitalization, she returned to a destroyed home, penniless and jobless (the laboratory she worked at also was destroyed by flooding). Taking the little bit that was left to her name, she now migrates from place to place with whatever could be salvaged, now working as a m ercenary.

Powers

 * Peak Human Reflexes - After being reawakened from the virus, she gained near super-human perception, allowing her to sense attacks before they land and offer time for dodging. This also allows for some defensive feats to be pulled off with more ease and allow some chance against any super-speed foes, or normally unavoidable attacks, such as gunfire.
 * Bio-Electricity Manipulation - The user (her) is able to use bio-electric currents existing within the nervous system as well as heart and muscles of a body rather if it is hers or another's. The electrical energy can also be channeled in order to make attacks or to take away the energy of another being. To some extention, she can also use the electrical power of some machinery as long as her body is capable of accepting it. With that said, she cannot absorb energy of very large machinery or too much concentrated electrical energy.
