Biography

Smart, athletic, a leader, these were the most spoken characteristics that Ethan's teachers mentioned at Ridgefield High School in Connecticut. Straight A student, President of the Student Council, and the unessential quarterback of the Ridgefield Tigers that helped get his team down state. With a Scholarship to Western New England College basically locked in, Ethan's future was a sure win ... Until something happened during their Homecoming football game.

Little did Ethan know, his ability to store electrical energy was quietly siphoning off the energy around around him. It had been building up for months and the odd flickering of lights, small electronic devices fizzling out, and rather sharp painful jolts of static electricity really went unnoticed. Try and tell that to David Scianno who tackled Ethan during the first quarter, suffering second during burns on his arms and consequently fell unconscious from the shock to his system. Everyone was confused and scared at what happened. Some thought it a freak accident. Others scorned Ethan and started calling him a freak, even though they had no idea how he was able to do that ...

Now enter Dr. Gregory Cullen, one of America's top geneticists. He had learned what happened to Ethan and opened his eyes to a world full of endless possibilities. The world of a mutant. Cullen was an incredibly smart and gifted scientist, though not a mutant himself. His life work was unlocking the mysteries of the X-factor gene and finding others mutants to train, to guide, to teach ... To prepare for a world not ready for the next evolutionary step.

Ethan became one of Dr. Cullen's first students and with being ostracized by his parents, Cullen also became a father figure to the young man. That was why his death by an unknown assailant devastated him. Having a former student and friend betray him almost destroyed Ethan, but he refused to let Cullen's life work die. As sole heir to Cullen's estate, Ethan continues to teach young mutants how to control their abilities and offer them a home in Westchester, New York. He also has built upon the wealth that was left to him and funded Argus Pharmaceuticals. They continue the Doctor's work, mapping and unlocking the genetic code in hopes to find cures for the incurable diseases. Many would use this information for ill purposes, so Ethan keeps a watchful eye as CEO and President of the company.

Over the last five to seven years, Ethan has grown into a self-assured leader, a far cry from the quiet and meek teenager that first entered the school. Even with all of the responsibility placed upon his shoulders, he has not lost his sense of humor and finds peace within the laughter of children that fill the schools halls. He holds a lot of power in his hands, not all of it mutant ability, and it's his duty to protect the children of today in order to secure a place for all mutants in the world of tomorrow.


Powers

Ion is a living battery of electrical energy. He can absorb and store electricity for an indefinite amount of time, which can be used for various abilities, mainly for discharging electric bolts and disrupting electrical equipment. He can also manipulate an electrical field that can be used as a shield, as well as sense electricity in a 120ft radius.

Once Ion runs out of juice, he is powerless. He would have to seek out an energy source to replenish his power. As for how much energy he can safely absorb? No one knows, but it has been proven that the more energy he absorbs past his comfort zone, the harder it is to keep that power contained within him.
