Cole MacGrath

Cole MacGrath was a normal bike courier in the metropolis of Empire City, but there was something special about Cole buried deep deep down: the conduit gene. The next stage of human evolution. On its own it wouldn't make him any different from any other human, but once he was tricked into activating the Ray Sphere, a bomb that decimated 5 city blocks and killed thousands to channel their energies into him, Cole became something much much greater. Cole now has the ability to create and manipulate electricity, all that's left is for him to decide what to do with it.
