The H.I.V.E.: Cell 179

Lightning Bug Genus: Modified human Entymology:Lightning Bug's first memories are of stumbling out of a back alley, naked, tired and in pain. Stealing enough clothes and a coat to mask her startling appearance, she mastered her powers and became a defender of the other homeless people in the city in which she found herself before coming to the attention of the H.I.V.E. She volunteered for the Special Missions Corps under King be, hoping to find some clues about her past as she travelled through known space. Insect Traits: Lightning Bug has had a metallic second skin grafted to her, which emits a constant high voltage field, to the detriment of anyone around her. The skin also provides excellent protection from conventional damage. She is able to control and channel her electrical field in the form of electrical bolts, statically charged cages or a gigantic explosion that leaves her drained afterwards. She can also use the electrical field to fly within a planet's magnetic field.
