Electric manipulation

Electric manipulation
Elle creates electricity.
Originally held by:	Elle
Absorbed by:	Peter Petrelli
Ability to:	Generate electrical energy
Examples of electric manipulation

Lightning is the ability to create and direct electrical arcs.

Characters

• Elle has this ability.
• Peter has absorbed this ability from Elle.

Limits

Users of this power can generate electrical arcs between themselves and other people or objects within a range of at least a few meters. The amount of current that such arcs can carry is not known. Users of the power are not usually harmed by electrical currents that they create themselves, although they can shock themselves if they attempt to generate arcs under unfavorable circumstances, as when Elle electrocuted herself when she was wet and her feet were immersed in water. (Cautionary Tales)

Noah states in Cautionary Tales that the brain is not meant to handle the amount of electricity generated by this power, hinting that this is at least in part why Elle has such an unstable personality.

Elle

Elle has extensive control over her power. She is able to adjust the strength and power of the electrical arcs she generates, such as creating a small spark which causes flinching, a medium bolt which stuns or a massive surge which kills. She does not need to use her hands to use her power, as seen when she zaps Peter with her mouth. (Four Months Later...)

Peter Petrelli

Peter can throw bolts from his hands capable of knocking people they strike unconscious.

Selected Examples

• 
  Peter knocks Tuko off his feet.
  (Four Months Later...)
• 
  Peter shocks an Irish thug at the Wandering Rocks and sends him back a few feet.
  (Lizards)
• 
  Peter successfully produces electricity, after saying Caitlin's name.
  (Petrified Lightning)
• 
  Elle uses her power on a shipping container in Cork, Ireland.
  (Fight or Flight)
• 
  Elle welds the lock of Wandering Rocks Pub.
  (Fight or Flight)
• 
  At a New York hospital, Elle takes Peter out with a blast of electricity.
  (Four Months Ago...)
• 
  Elle sedates Adam by sending a blast of electrical energy his way.
  (Four Months Ago...)
• 
  Elle's lightning is strong enough to set Peter's clothing ablaze.
  (Four Months Ago...)

Notes

• Peter describes the ability as "sparks" from his hand.
