So this may sound very dumb but I’m a writer/illustrator of science fiction novels and I’d love to get some legit opinions on a concept I’m working on…
Basically I’m working on a concept of a race of people with the ability to produce electricity from their bodies much like eels.
Generally I’m going to make their anatomy and pathophysiology similar to the eels and give them an appealing humanoid look for their powers to make sense
However…I want to push the boundaries of their powers…
So I guess my question is, what would a creatures anatomy and environment have to be like for them to develop the ability of electrical manipulation?
