Epilectra is our heroine.  She leads a team of unique heroes called SEEZ who all have turned disabilities into super-abilities.  Her disability is epilepsy, and she shoots lightning from her fingertips.  She's also as fast as the speed of light when the situation calls for it.

Eden is Epilectra's human counterpart.  She's a 5th grade social studies teacher who lives in New York City, and she develops epilepsy after being struck by lightning at a family Thanksgiving dinner in Philadelphia.

Logan is Eden's younger brother.  He's hit by the same lightning at the same family dinner as his sister.  He's also a New Yorker and an electrical engineer who, after being struck, becomes paralyzed from the waist down and an engineering savant.  Logan manages SEEZ's computer systems and builds its one-of-a-kind gear.

Angel is a wealthy, attractive, mid-50's Latino gentleman who lives in the 30th floor penthouse of Eden's apartment building.  He's searching for something meaningful in his life and after becoming friendly with  Logan and Eden, he helps them to establish SEEZ.  He also becomes an integral part of the organization.

Insulator, whom Epilectra initially meets as Jane, is the first superhero to join SEEZ other than its founders.  She has diabetes and is "insulated" from natural forces such as water, fire, heat, cold, and disease.

Aupticus is an uncomfortable communicator because of his autism, but also is remarkably intelligent, especially in the areas of mathematics and science.  Though he rarely makes eye contact, when he does his remarkable super-ability allows him to exercise neuroplasticity, rewiring a villain's brain and changing the course of his actions.
