So I decided to start a thread to clear up everything about Spatks. It would probably be a good idea if the other artists did something like this, as well.
Sooo... yeah. Ask questions on anything you want to know, and I'll answer. Probably.

You should just ramble on about everything you know about Sparks.
Honestly, I don't know what to ask.

What does he like and dislike? What are his fears?

Does Sparks abilities enhance as he becomes used to them / further into the Z Legion story. I dont mean as in stronger, i mean in quantity of abilities Say, that not only emitting electricity, he can also drain electrical appliances, or use electricity to stimulate parts of his muscles to move faster (i think you've already hinted at stuff like this)

What does he like and dislike? What are his fears? Likes: Cold, dry air (Think, when do you get static shocks?); plants and insects; batteries (he has a small collection); machines; kind people; lightning; heights. Dislikes: Water; Humid or dusty air (think: when DON'T you get static shocks?); loud noises with no lightning involved; Zyrd; the Prison; the dark; resistors (rubber, dirt, glass). Fears: Evy's Draco-form; that the Prison has sent someone to find him; drowning; if his friends like him or not; large animals.

I dont mean as in stronger, i mean in quantity of abilities Say, that not only emitting electricity, he can also drain electrical appliances, or use electricity to stimulate parts of his muscles to move faster (i think you've already hinted at stuff like this) I think that Sparks would certainly improve in terms of accuracy and control under emotinal distress. He can absorb electricity from direct sources right from the get-go, and he'd eventually learn to controll his powers to the degree where he could definitly drain it from ambient sources like a running appliance or a car battery. Hell, he could probably use the elecricity inside of a living thing to stimulate the nerve endings and thus controll the creature (this would not work on zombies). He would also become able to push his electrical field out into the air around him, like an aura of sorts. This would be useful as a method to detect what's ahead of him, like an extra-large, super-sensitive personal bubble. As for the enhancing of his physical strength through absortion of electricity, yes, this has been one of my ideas from the begining. A lame idea that spawned off of that is that on incredibly rare occasions he would have so much pent-up power his muscules would fail to be efficient enough, transforming him into a kind of living lightning.

That actually sounds pretty kickass. Not like some lame supersaiyan form, but like....he'd appear to be made of plasma. I'm thinking this might put undo stress on his physical body, thus limiting the use of this form (typical excuse).

Actually, I was thinking of it being an example of his physical body working so near perfection, that it would take an extrordinary amount of power or concentration for it to happen.

Well that makes him seem godlike. Which is bad. We want our characters to have flaws. That's what makes them awesome.
Or not. Don't listen to me, I've got terrible characters.

Actually, I think giving him that ability in the very end would be... fitting... Looking at it with Reap's goal in mind.

Like I said, it would take huge amounts of power to get it to work. Like, four lightning bolts in a row. But you have a point, and maybe afterward he would be reduced to crawling in pain.
