Description

Name: Victor Morrison 
Alias: The Spark
Alignment: Hero
Nationality: British and Romanian
Eye color: Gold (originally Green)
Hair color: Black with bronze highlights
Age: 25
Powers: Electricity powers
Personality: He is rather kind and is overall somewhat friendly, but some people find him a tad socially awkward and standoffish in most situations since he doesn't do well in crowds due to lingering feelings of anxiety.
Flaws: Suffers from occasional panic attacks if people mention something that reminds him of the experiments that gave him his powers, causing him to uncontrollably discharge electricity.

Backstory: Victor used to be a normal child raised in London by his parents, until one day when he was 10 years old, a cult captured him and performed horrifying experiments on him. While he was eventually saved, his hair was permanently tinged bronze and his eyes had been changed to gold, but despite this, he seemed to be alright. However, 3 years later, he started having horrible nightmares about the experiments done to him and his parents started taking him to a therapist, but after a few sessions, the therapist accidentally brought up a rather painful memory of the most horrifying experiment that was done to him that caused his powers to manifest, sending him into a panic attack and uncontrollably discharging electricity around himself and ended up electrocuting the therapist. His parents heard his cries and ran into the therapy room, only to see him curled up in fetal position in the middle of the floor surrounded by charred papers books, and the still smoking charred body of the therapist in corner of the room, when they approached him, he screamed in fear and tried to tell them to stay back, but they didn't listen and he accidentally discharged electricity again, and while his parents survived, Victor fled in a panic and ran away from home. After several weeks of hiding, he eventually hitched a ride on a cruise ship bound for the United States, thinking that the only way his parents would be safe, would be if he remained as far away from them as possible. When he made it to the United States, he hopped off the boat and kept his distance from the other passengers that were exiting, after wandering around the harbor, he found that he ended up in New York. He didn't have much money on him, so he wasn't really able to find a place to live, only being able to stay at a local homeless shelter after he offered to do volunteer work there in exchange for a place to stay. He finally thought he could live a somewhat normal life, even considering writing to his parents to let them know he was alright, that is until one faithful night...
One evening when he was sweeping the lobby of the homeless shelter, 2 men in ski masks burst in and held him at gunpoint demanding he give them the shelter's donation box, he began to start having a panic attack again, beginning to hyperventilate and he started to glow with electricity, but he didn't want to kill anyone again so he strained himself to calm down, but it didn't completely stop his powers from activating, instead he released a weak electrical pulse the knocked the guns out of the hands of the 2 criminals, giving Victor the opportunity to knock them both out by whacking them both over the head with his broom and tying them up with a hose from the janitor cart. Once the police arrived, they saw Victor standing over the 2 captured criminals, they congratulated him on capturing the duo and after unmasking them, the police said there was actually a cash reward for their capture from a wealthy CEO that they had robbed earlier that year. After he received the cash reward, he donated the majority of the cash to the homeless shelter, he wanted to donate all of it, but the person who took him in insisted that he keep some of the money to find a better place to live, so he rented a room in an apartment not far from the shelter. While he still worked in the shelter, in his spare time he would practice focusing his powers and even started going after criminals at night, typically ones with a cash reward so he could pay his rent. Over time, he started to gain some mild notoriety as a local hero while still keeping his identity a secret, the people at the homeless shelter even gave him the nickname "The Spark" based on how he took down criminals with subdued electric shocks. The only one who actually knew his secret identity was the person who ran the homeless shelter since he saw Victor take down the criminals that tried to rob the shelter, he later even suggested making some kind of hero costume and taking nickname the people gave his vigilante persona, even giving him a mask and scarf to go with his outfit, but Victor typically only wore those if he did any hero work during the day since a hood usually hid his identity fairly well at night, but he did start wearing gloves when out in public since over time his electricity powers started to stain his fingernails black and it became rather noticeable. 
By the time he was in his twenties, less people were offering rewards for capturing criminals, so he also got a job working as an electrician during the day, using his immunity to electricity to his advantage, but he still would go around capturing criminals at night, even though he was no longer paid for it. He eventually also heard about another vigilante, someone who wore a green poncho and was supposedly invincible, and decided to seek this man out, thinking that if there were more people like him and this unknown man using their powers for good, then there might also be people using their powers for evil, and he'd probably need some assistance.
