static charge - arthur describes his semblance as “ advanced healing abilities ” –which isn’t inherently incorrect. his semblance allows him to absorb and store electricity from different sources, such as batteries or television sets, and expel it in different ways at a later time. this can be anywhere from hurling lightning at an opponent during a fight, powering machines with no fuel, and stimulating nerves to heal wounds without the need to overuse aura. however, after joining salem, she helped him to train and evolve his semblance, now allowing him the ability to temporarily bring people back from the dead. this secondary ability, however, does involve aura to a certain degree, as a corpse no longer possesses a soul. in the process of reviving someone, arthur ties a piece of his aura to them, meaning they must obey his commands and cannot stray far from him before they die again. killing these reanimated corpses hurts arthur, but does not break his aura.

good lord please open this guy in a new tab or click him for better quality, tumblr will not do him justice

anyway the only good thing about rooster teeth telling us about his semblance is that i am never wrong now.
