Electric Eel

Motto: "We love the smell of burning insulation. It smells like victory."

Character Note:

ELECTRIC EELS are Moray troops who have been genetically altered by Cobra venom serum to enable them to carry an electric charge like their namesakes. A jolt from one of these elite underwater specialists can knock out an unprotected GI Joe team member instantly. Aside from their electrical powers, ELECTRIC EEL troops have nictitating membranes to protect their eyes from murky waters and a mutated nervous system to withstand the excessive amperage involved with their “high-voltage” sabotage operations. The bio-electric discharge of an ELECTRIC EEL is not only used as a weapon against personnel, but is also an effective neutralizer of security systems and communications equipment, and jams radar and sonar signals. They can also provide their own light source during night operations, but luckily for the GI Joe team, the ELECTRIC EEL troops flash uncontrollably when they over over-stressed, making them easier to spot.
