Razor is lightning incarnate. It is a living being, capable only of unleashing its tremendous electrical power to anything and everything nearby. The only indication of sentience from it is its ability to control its surges, which never seems to actually strike any it would call friends. Like its namesake, it cuts to the bone, with speed and accuracy, sometimes jumping from one thing to another. I

The score stayed 4-3 until the 5th, when with two outs and nobody one, thr
