Electrokinesis

**Electrokinesis** is the ability to mentally and/or physically manipulate and control electric currents and static electricity.

## Description

Electrokinesis is a very powerful ability to have. One with the ability can summon lightning, electricity, or even make a static shock powerful. They can electrify their weapons in order to make their weapons more effective, causing more damage. They are also unaffected by other types of electrical blasts, or are at the very least, more resistant to them. It seems to be an ability possessed by the children of Zeus, and his Roman counterpart, Jupiter. This ability can also be possessed by powerful children of Poseidon, and his Roman counterpart Neptune, as they are able to create strong storms that can generate lightning.

## Caspian Portal and The Old Gods

### *The Titan's Bane*

After Zamaya Reynoso is upset that Caspian and Naomi Portal did not follow her orders to guard the flag, a simple touch sends an electrical current through his body. This ability is displayed in numerous other places as well. This event happened when Zamaya was emitting static from her body. She uses this also when battling the Nemean Lion and Andrew James.

### *The Final Deity*

During Typhon's rampage across the United States, Zeus used his power over lightning to repeatedly try and stop Typhon, even going as far as to use his Master Bolt. But Typhon is so powerful, that the powerful electricity merely just annoyed him.

Thalia also uses a bolt of lightning to defeat a Laistrygonian Giant in Central Park, summoning it from the sky. This action appears to tire her when used.

Later, while fighting Hyperion, Percy summons a hurricane with that emits lightning.

## The Saviors of Olympus

### *The Missing Soldier*

When Tempest Leos is sitting around the campfire, in order to prove to the others that he had already been claimed, he summons a bolt of lightning from the sky to strike his lance. When he was fighting Lityerses, he summoned a bolt of lightning and destroyed the roof. Later, while fighting Enceladus, Tempest strikes the giant with his spear and asks her father for help, resulting in a lightning bolt (presumably from Zeus) splitting Mount Diablo in half. Tempest, like Isaac and Zamaya, can emit static from her body as she did to shock Khione, and many others. Summoning lightning from above, however, taxes their strength more than using their other eletrokinesis abilities. Both Isaac and Tempest mention and show signs of fatigue after calling lightning down.

Later in the story, King Midas turns his friends into gold, which makes Tempest mad. So Tempest says that gold is a great conductor of electricity, so she uses electrokinesis and blasts the roof of the gold house and defeats Midas for the time being.

### *The Half-Blood Journals*

In the *Diary of Andrew James*, it is said there that Zamaya almost killed Andrew when she summoned lightning. Zamaya summoned lightning to make the Greek Fire.
