What do they do with their power?:
With powers as potentially dangerous and powerful as Volt's, one would expect the python dog to act as some sort of super vigilante, however the python's choice usage of his ability is pretty much the opposite. Volt works as a part time mechanical engineer, in which he uses his powers to recharge and fix broken electrical objects. He is often found recharging phones, as there is a large need for the fixing and recharging of phone batteries and the python dog has been known to make a little extra by following around those who use their phones all the time and recharging them when they get low. Another part time job that Volt occasionally takes up is the job of working at a powerpoint. Volt loves the feeling of being surrounded by all that electricity and power, even if he can't use or tap into it. He's especially helpful to have around when the call of a downed power line comes in as he is resistant to electricity enough to be a big help in getting the power lines back up and running. So while Volt may occasionally assist with more vigilante style work, the python dog is perfectly content with doing ordinary jobs and making a difference in that way.
Personality:
Shy// Volt is very shy, something that has resulted from his powers and a feeling of being different, a feeling that resulted in him developing social anxiety which has led to his shyness
Kind// Volt is very kind and gentle, something exhibited in his soft spoken almost childlike voice, and the python dog is always the first to say something nice and the last to criticize
Helpful// Volt is extremely helpful, always willing the python dog to help anyone who needs it, a feature of his that is commonly taken advantage of as he doesn't quite seem to know when not to help
Creative// Volt is very creative, a trait he tends to exhibit in his usage of his abilities, trying to use them to help others without causing the ruckus that vigilantes cause, something he has usually avoided by focusing on helping with power generating rather than crime fighting
Lonely// Volt tends to feel rather lonely and isolated from the rest of the world due to his powers and the negative ways he has been treated because of them, this has led to a seemingly never leaving feeling of loneliness and being just all alone in the world
Supportive// Volt is extremely supportive and if you want to do something he will support you to the ends of the earth and do everything in his power to help you achieve your goals, regardless of whether he believes in them
History:
Volt was born on a planet inhabited almost entirely of python dogs, very few other species daring to live there. Volt's parents were two normal python dogs and when he was born with electricity powers, it came as quite a shock to them. His parents saw they way he was teased as a really young pup, so as he grew up they showed him how to hide and conceal his powers so that he could be normal or at least pretend to be. The charade last for a couple months, but after one accidentally loss of control, everyone knew what Volt could do and everyone chose to view him as some sort of unholy monster, a screw up as one python put it. Society verbal abused the young python, and soon even he began to view himself as nothing more than a monster, despite what his mother, the only one who seemed to understand, told him. Upset with his life, and no longer even trying to be a part of society, Volt left his home planet, running away without so much as a goodbye, not even to his parents. Eventually he settled on a new planet, a planet where he put his powers to use as a mechanical engineer, and despite his not being entirely qualified at first, he soon picked up on it and found himself surprisingly good with machines and anything that ran on electricity. That started the path Volt is currently on today, still working as a mechanical engineer, and doing his best to help others, his way of making up for the monster he feels he is.
Relationships:
Mother// Volt's relationship with his mother was quite good when he was younger, always feeling like she understood him and that he could go to her for anything, after the accident however, everything changed and Volt no longer felt safe around her, worried that he might accidentally hurt her or someone else, then after he left the relationship just vanished as he still has yet to talk to her since, though he does know she loves him still and he still loves her
Father// Volt always had a bit of a strained relationship with his father, especially since his father was the one who taught him to conceal his powers and try to be normal, putting expectations on the young python that he never felt he could reach, and after the accident his father stopped talking to him entirely, leaving very little remaining in that relationship by the time Volt left, so unlike his mother, Volt really doesn't feel his father loves him or could ever accept him for who or what he is
Hathan// Volt used to be best friends with this python dog, always playing together and having fun, up until the accident where Volt got angry at Hathan for accidentally breaking Volt's favorite toy and zapped him, causing Hathan to fall deep into a coma, a coma he had still not woken up from when Volt left; Volt's current relationship with Hathan is zero, and Hathan is the source of Volt's biggest regret and feeling of being a monster as what else but a monster zaps their best friend
