## Biography

### Max Dillion: 1980 - 2002

Max Dillion grew up without knowing his parents having spent his time with his uncle while his early life wasn't charmed he seemed to have grew up watching his uncle usually experimenting with various electricity devices. While he was an average student with the lifestyle he had seemed to grow a fondness over engineering having gained a schloarship to the recently rebuilt Empire State University. During his time at ESU he would meet his sweetheart, Francine Fyre. He would also major in various electronics courses, there he would land a job at Oscorp under the role of a electrician.

During his time working under Oscorp the job had paid well and allowed him to support himself and Francine, though his life would slowly come to break apart however after discovering Francine had began to abuse drugs as a way to aid her. Max used whatever money he had from his paycheck to send her to rehab, once the annual fee for their apartment was due Max seemed to have used a majority of it to maintain Francine's debts that she owed. Due to money being burnt through, Max spent whatever time he had in a bar, which would lead to Max being fired from his job opting for a smaller and cheaper job as a freelancer.

Eventually this would lead to Max becoming more and more desperate deciding to pick up smash and grab jobs, eventually Max's greed would slowly get the better of him as by the time Francine had returned he often ignored her or barley gave her the time of day. This led to a divorce between the two, having caused him to lose his job, eventually causing him to become a goon for Wilson Fisk, one a job however Max was exposed to an open electric cord which powered his metagene. Frying all the cops near by and making his escape, giving himself the name Electro.

### Electro: 2002 - Present Day

Max spent the last year or so as a common mob enforcer for whoever was willing to pay the right price, eventually Max would come face to face with the newest hero on the block, Spider-Man due to the young heroes inexperience he was able to easily and leave with his score. Eventually the two would fight once more though Spider-Man had used rubber gloves to aid him in giving the criminal a couple of loose teeth and a broken nose.

While Max went through a couple attempts of going straight he seemed to have been unable to put his past behind him, he would continue to often be a pain in Spider-Man's side he would often do his cliche robberies often robbing a bank or cutting off power to a plant. All these attempts would be null and void however, though he seemed to grew enraged after being constantly bested he broke out into a murder spree. Having killed several officers who were behind his arrests in an attempt to gain the respect he deserved. Attempting to frame Spider-Man as the one who helped him the two had fought which landed the city into a complete and utter blackout.

Following his arrest in Rykers, there he seemed to have finally get his life back on track. Though it didn't last long as he was tasked to join the Sinister Six in 2010. There he joined, Doctor Octopus, Shocker, Rhino, Vulture, and Mysterio to finally kill Spider-Man, while the group seemed to have been close to doing so before Spider-Man pulled through. Since then, Max has gone in and out of Rykers.

## Strengths

* **Lightning Bolt Projection:** The simplest manifestation was the emission of a lightning-like electric arc from his fingertips, which could propagate through air or other conducting mediums. This discharge, whose total voltage can be regulated within certain limits, travelled at the speed of lightning, about 150,000 feet per second. The course of the electrostatic bolt, like lightning, did not always follow a straight line since it could be influenced by conducting substances like metal or other electrical fields. If his target was not grounded, his electrostatic bolt would have had little effect. The maximum effective range of his bolts was about 100 feet.
* **Electromagnetic Propulsion via Electrical Lines and Bridges:** Electro could propel himself along the accompanying magnetic lines of force in objects that have great electrical potential, such as high-tension electrical lines. He generated light, eddying electrical fields around his legs, which developed an intense, opposing magnetic field that could support him above the electric cable's magnetic field. By creating imbalances in his field, he could ride along on magnetic ripples at speeds of up to 140 miles per hour, the maximum speed at which he could still breathe unaided. He could sometimes create electrostatic bridges to traverse upon, although the expenditure of energy is enormous. To a limited degree, he could also mimic Spider-Man's wall-crawling ability, using his electromagnetic field to become attracted to the fields of iron bars in buildings.
* **Electrical Detection:** Electro's electrical powers also granted him certain sensory and manipulative abilities. By "feeling" the course of electricity through the circuitry of any electrically powered device, Electro could override the system and make the device obey his mental commands. Electro could disconnect alarm systems, control computers in a limited way, or overload any electrically controlled system that was insufficiently shielded.
* **Electrocution:** The electric flux of Electro's skin was such that when his electric charge was at a maximum, a person touching him was in danger of being electrocuted.

* **Recharging:** By using an external electrical power source to recharge his body's energy reserves, he could expend electrical energy indefinitely without diminishing his personal reserves.
* **Electrical Conversion into Enhanced Physical Attributions:** The electricity coursing through his altered body augmented his strength, speed, and recuperative powers. When fully charged, Electro was able to lift (press) about 500 pounds.
* **Metal Ionization:** Electro was taught by Doctor Octopus during a stint in prison that he could ionize metals.
* **Disruption of Wall-Crawling Abilities:** Electro's powers also can disrupt Spider-Man's electrostatic ability to cling to walls.

## Weaknesses

* **Water:** When he was fully charged, Electro was extremely sensitive to anything that may "short circuit" him, such as water.
* **Exhaustion:** Electro could lose control over his powers, which caused him to burn out and collapse.
