The Tesla is a lightning creature that lurks in abandoned power plants, radioactive areas and in rough terrain, where thunderstorms are common.

It lives off electricity but can and will eat everything as they have an insatiable hunger. Its bile is black and poisonous, the kind of poison depending on the poisonous food it has eaten (for example it can be arsenic or radioactive).
Its breath is static.

It's able to guide and use electricity through his hands and feet, hence the vein like lightning pattern. Because of constant electrical conduction at the end of its limbs, its joints and wrists have become swollen and mutated.

The Tesla itself is immune to electricity and it can shut down his electrical system to appear invisible in the dark. However, its eyes always shine like car lamps, so it has to walk blind when stalking its prey.

Tesla are fairly bigger than humans, standing 7 to 8 feet tall. They are awfully skinny and their limbs are long and thin and appear blackened. Their hair, mouth and tongue are also black or a very dark blue. They have no other facial or body hair. Their tongue can be up to 3 feet long and is used to 'taste' the air to search for electricity. Their skin is white and feels wet and cold.
The bright lightning pattern is white or a blueish white.


It is said that Tesla used to be humans, but were cursed by god and struck by his lightning, which they barely survived. This is because their DNA is 99,99% alike.
(in reality they are humans which bare a strange disease, which slowly alters their body and mind).
The first Tesla was discovered in Colorado Springs, by scientist Nikola Tesla, hence the name. The Tesla was drawn to his experiments like a moth to the light.
It is not known whether they can talk, but they can make sounds like thunder or crackling electricity, probably to warn other Tesla. They use little to no tools and live primitively.
Tesla live solitary and with success - there is never more than one Tesla in one area. There have been records of Tesla swimming across seas in search of a new home.

Tesla are very dangerous and cannot be killed with bullets. They have unnatural strength and endurance. Extreme caution is a must in areas where a Tesla is known to live.
