Ian

Ian is a member of the Electroclan. Along with McKenna and Abigail, Ian was held captive by the Elgen for many years because he refused to follow Hatch, but was tortured 'less aggressively'. He joined the Electroclan after escaping from the Elgen Academy's prison, known as Purgatory. His greatest regret is that he believes to be the reason of Wade's death in book 3.

Powers
Ability to see using electrolocation, which is the same way sharks and eels see through muddy or murky water. He is able to see through anything that electric signals pass through, unless Nichelle is around. He does not believe himself to be blind.

History
Though the books are not very descriptive with timelines, it is presumed that he has spent the better part of his life in the Purgatory.

The Prisoner of Cell 25
Ian was found and rescued by Michael along with Taylor, Abi, and Mckenna in a cell in the "academy" and helped Michael shut down the academy once he was freed.
