Ivan Zharkov

Ivan Zharkov is a New Human and primary seatholder in the Council of Supreme Elites. As a child, Zharkov bullied William Crestmore. Even though the hatred became mutual throughout their high school years, their rivalry became known around the New Human population and was exemplified as they both became members of the Supreme Councils.

Zharkov's parents immigrated to the United States after New Humans began to be persecuted in the Soviet Union. Due to the hatred that New Humans suffered through in the Soviet Union, the Zharkov family all supported the Supreme Elites in their goal to exterminate the entire human race.

New Human Ability: Radiation Generation
Zharkov has the ability to manipulate the movement of subatomic particles, thus generating and emitting toxic radiation from his body. Due to being raised with strict parents who forced him to train with his ability every day, he quickly learned to control his power and it developed rapidly. The radiation that he emits has a negative effect on the environment and organisms around him. He can burn others, cause cancer if others are exposed to radiation over an extended period of time, boil liquids, burn or set fire to matter, disable electronics, cause explosions, and kill plants in his general vicinity.
