Volta Joren

Volta's Life
Though she was an orphan, at a young age, Volta showed great skill in lightning magic without the need of a master teacher. She was adopted my a woman called Xi who gave her all the training she needed to become a lightning master. When she turned 14, her adopted mother allowed her to submit her name for the second tournament to practice her elemental powers and to make new friends.

Surprisingly, Volta's name was picked out. She watched on the TV at the protests in the Blood Wood led by Vampis Hemos. Volta wanted to not take part because the blood master seemed menacing but she could not drop out. Xi gave her adopted daughter for a day to winner of the tournament a few years ago, Spark. He taught her advanced lightning magic and showed her a skill of crafting a lightning bolt.

Spark even offered her a lightning lizard to assist her in the tournament but asked her to prove herself. Volta said 'no' and asked him on advice of how to make friends in the game. The champion suggested Volta to befriend the representatives of Cloud, Plant, Water and Fire. She was invited to go to the arena for a special ceremony where she would choose her weapon.

Erowp greeted her and Volta saw Vampis with her blood wolves and the earth representative Quake, wielding a hammer that shook the earth. The tournament leader explained she would choose a weapon to amplify her abilities. She looked at all the weapons and chose the bow and arrows in which she could quickly craft and lightning bolt with and shoot it through the bow.

Volta talked to water, Nukam, cloud, Colombia and plant, Borroe, but they were all not very nice. She then met fire representative Pyrozi and metal representative called Kera and they immediately became friends. Though it was the boy of the sand tribe who she liked most. His name was Shard and his magic was great, using a pointed staff to create sandstorms.

When Volta revisited Spark, he disapproved with her choice of befriending Kera and Shard. She becomes angry and asks for a lightning lizard. When Spark again tells her that she has to prove herself, she puts £20 on his desk, goes to the stable, opens the door and walks home with her lightning lizard. She names him Electra and meets up with Shard again where he introduces her to his sand serval Miran.

When they are attacked by haters, Shard helps her escape by sinking them into the sandpit and sending them back home. The sand boy also introduces Volta to his girlfriend known as Guja. The first match starts as Volta watches Kera fight to stay in the competition, flinging platinum shards at the enemy. She then takes part in her own duos match: her and Quartz against Gust and Quake. She eventually beats them by electrocuting them with her bow, Electra shooting lightning from his jaws and moving as fast as electricity.

The rest of the people do their first matches but Vampis and Nukam seem deadly. She fights her second match against Colombia, the simulation taking the form of a thunderstorm. Sadly, she is knocked out and watches as Vampis shows everyone her daughter, Blodos. Volta goes home and cries until Spark arrives, apologises and the two soon bond in a mentor and apprentice relationship.

Xi, Spark and Volta watch the final from her home and see Nukam decapitate Vampis unexpectedly. Pyrozi leaves to look after her mentor Infernos and Shard takes her to the sand tribe with him. Also, Guja gives birth to a son. She travels back home with her friends to see the Champion of Champions tournament in the third book and then fights with Spark, winning. Volta watches with horror as she sees the arena being broken into, Erowp captured, representatives hypnotised and Blodos, Aquala's apprentice, savagely murdered.

The Windon Warriors break into her house and threaten Xi, but they escape. Volta sends her mother to the Emeria Chamber in the metal tribe and finds her friends who then travel to the glacier tribe. After Chronia is defeated, the Windon Warriors arrive and she is told to leave with Nimbus, while Spark holds them off. Darko sacrifices herself to take down the guards and Ikol and Iron disable the weapons.

However, when the spider mech arrives, she tells the others to get to the Glacier Tribe Emeria Chamber while she helps Spark. Cryosis joins the fight and a warrior attacks Volta though Spark blocks a knife with his body and in his last breath, unlocks true power and electrocutes all the others except a plant girl wearing rubber armour, whom she finishes off. After Aquala brings down the spider mech, she goes back and enters the Emeria Chamber with her friends.

She comes back and finds Shard and Pyrozi. Shard meets his grand daughter and Volta gives a speech at Spark, Darko, Aquala and Blodos's funeral. Volta also sees an uninvited man attend the funeral. She recognises something about him but does not recognise that it is the Windon Warriors' leaders' grandson carrying on his grandfather's work.
