Mmm, a little, I must admit. It's almost been pleasant.
An ally with a gift for thunder magic and I have tested the combining of our abilities. I supply magnetized earth in large chunks and they provide the electrical current. Spin the stones and a powerful electro-magnetic field forms. A magnetized steel slug of sufficient size can be shot through it before exhaustion sets in.
It's... essentially a railgun, only an artillery placement. That kind of power might take a lot for us to produce, and not be quite as potent as what Sharona and I used to do, but I am certain it could devastate most of the threats we face here, even the large ones. A pity we couldn't test it on a Kaiju. Basically we could combine the power so each of our strength focused on half of the effect, more than doubling the resulting power.
