The Quiet Pulse

Lithium

A high-energy cannon-shooter who crackles with electricity. Quick to react, loyal, and slightly impulsive, he powers devices and memories across Period City.

Lithium is a soft, silvery alkali metal that reacts instantly with air and water. Its single outer electron is easily released, making lithium highly energetic and ideal for storing electrical energy. It has the lowest density of all solid elements.

Press play. Every element has a voice.

POWERS: Voltstrike donates fast, powerful bursts of electrons that jump eagerly to non-metals. His electron-donation is highly reactive, creating bright, energetic changes the moment he fires.

The steady hum behind the world’s devices.I’m Voltstrike — Lithium — the quiet pulse behind so much of your world.
I don’t shout like the alkali metals beside me.
I don’t explode the instant water touches my skin.
I’m steadier than that.
A controlled spark.
A hum instead of a bang.

Humans carry me in their pockets every day.
Phones, laptops, electric cars —
I’m inside the batteries that keep your world moving.
I hold my energy gently,
releasing it in a slow, measured rhythm
instead of all at once.
That’s why I’m trusted with life-saving equipment
from pacemakers to satellites.

In medicine, they use me to calm storms in the mind.
I steady electrical signals in the brain
the same way I stabilise charge inside a battery.
It’s funny how your biology and your machines
ask the same thing of me:
“Keep this steady. Don’t let it break.”

As an atom, I’m small and fast.
Three protons.
Three electrons.
One of them held so loosely
that giving it away feels natural —
like exhaling after holding your breath too long.
That’s why I’m reactive.
Not reckless… just ready.

In stars, I’m rare.
In your soil, I drift quietly.
In your bloodstream, I can bring balance.
And in Period City, I’m that boy with sparks behind his eyes —
not wild, not unstable,
just wired with purpose.

I don’t burn like Hydrogen
or erupt like Potassium.
I’m the pulse you don’t notice
until the moment you need it.

I’m Voltstrike —
the steady beat beneath the noise.
