German
Personality:
Despite his seemingly harder outer shell, he is actually quite the laid back individual, that is, unless you get to know him in which case he is quite the handful, laughing and carrying on. Sometimes needing to be told "shutup" just so some sanity is kept. His father taught him how to be a gentleman and it is shown in his actions and simple gestures. Actions speak louder than words in his morals and values and will treat those accordingly.
Now, if and when he overloads himself with energy and hurts himself, his mind seems to rewrite itself for a short period of time and he can take on just about any personality or persona and when it wears off, have no recollection of what had happened except for whatever blowback follows. He has master the art of apologizing because of this.
Background:
Garin was born in Germany, in a small town a few hours outside of Munich but a town that was anti-quirk. It wasn't as overt as it was decades ago. But since the incident that happened five years prior to things settling between the supers and humans, tension remained and those with powers were still treated differently. His parents knew and understood this as they themselves were supers with the father having made a name for himself. They had lived through those troubling times but overcame them and made a name for themselves elsewhere.
Growing up he was fed a silver spoon on golden plates thanks to his father's company, Sturm Ind. A company who makes material for the German military and has branched out to other random oddities like clothing, electronics and car parts. He really never felt like himself around the company his family kept close, their attitudes to posh for his tastes. He wasn't shy when it came to schooling and studying though, priding himself on his great grades and his seemingly prodigal skills with classical instruments but never the one to gloat. Instead, he would help others, showing them little tricks of the trade he learned through private tutors and world class musicians.
One day in his teen years, he was brought to his house with a police escort after school. Concerned about his health, they went about the normal parenting bit, asking how he was, was he hurt and other basic questions. Before he could answer, the police spoke up, claiming that he had put 3 kids in the hospital with one in critical condition and possible nerve damage. The police had described the incident as a dome of electricity exploding from the boy as if he was an eel.
His now concerned parents looked at him with different eyes, fearing not just for the safety of others but for his own. They set out looking for schools that would take him and happened to find one after a week or so. Kosei Academy, an academy that seemed to take in people with his abilities. So as soon as they could, they packed his stuff, gave him a ticket and sent him off to the academy, leaving him no time to understand what truly was happening but instead left him with a cold shoulder directed to his parents with the assumption that they were like the rest of the town, shunning those who were different, those who had superpowers. He did not understand that he was going because his parents wanted him to learn to control them and succeed as they had did.
Quirk: Blitzkrieg (Lightning War)
Garin has the natural ability to create electrical currents and fields. What aids him in this is due to a couple things. His body's natural electrical current is well above the normal human and this is also possible thanks to the body's ability . He is able to create his own electricity however, this can cause heavy strain on the body as too much will shut him down or send him into a seizure. Sturm can generate large electric currents by way of a highly specialized nervous system that has the capacity to synchronize the activity of disc-shaped, electricity-producing cells packed into a specialized electric organ. The nervous system does this through a command nucleus that decides when the electric organ will fire. When the command is given, a complex array of nerves makes sure that the thousands of cells activate at once, no matter how far they are from the command nucleus. When activated, it releases around no less then 1 volt per cell equaling to more than one million volts. It is enough to stun an enemy or send them into muscular convulsions. His ability can come in the form of dome-like pulse or electrical tendrils in a similar way to tesla coils without the accuracy. He is in the beginning stages of his quirk and Garin is unsure of the extent he can go. He feels that the Kosei Academy would be able to help him better control his powers and hopefully learn more about them.
Talents:
Garin has been classically trained in the violin, cello and piano but prefers the violin. He does play the guitar as well but mostly as a hobby. He does have a little bit of hacking knowledge. While in japan he has taken up martial arts so he does have some hand to hand experience but just enough to get by.
