Quirk: Lightning Rod

type: emitter

This quirk alows the user to absorb and store static electricity from the air around them, they can expel it by covering their body with it, for instance, if they focused it all into their hands they could create shapes from the electricity, like a claw.

It is very useful, it could be used to make long weapons too, but the farther away the electricity is from the user, the harder it is to control it. they can use it as a projectile but it requires so much energy the the blast totally burns them out.

It can enhance strength and speed my stimulating the muscles with jolts of electricity but if the quirk is used too often, the user can lock up their muscles or even burn them out and cause permanent damage.

an idea for a hero who has this quirk: they would be mostly quiet and a bit laid back but when they activate their quirk, their body gets stimulated and they become bouncy and energetic which leads to them losing focus in battle. they have two support items, a belt with many batteries which can store their energy for later use, and a pair of gloves which make it easier to control their electricity.
