General Bio
Name: Jason Salvatore
Nickname:Jace
Age: 22
Gender: Male
SuperpowerName of ability: Pyrokinesis
Description: The ability to speed up the vibrations of atoms to alter temperatures to the point of igniting a fire and possibly manipulating it.
Level one abilities: At level one, he could produce a small flame at the snap of his fingers or perhaps manipulate a candle flame. As for his body temperature, he is able to heat himself up slightly. Sometimes he can give people a slight sting with the touch of his hand but nothing hot enough to produce a permanent burn.
Level three abilities: Producing larger flames is slightly easier. He could blow at a candle and produce a small wave of a flame that was larger than what had previously existed. He can even create fireballs a bit smaller than the size of a golf ball but this occasion is rare. He can keep another person or himself warm with his body. He can withstand flames for a very short period of time and perhaps move through them without damage. However, this is for a short period and he cannot linger in the flames for too long without scorching himself. If he is allowed to hold someone's arm or touch their skin for a certain period of time, he can induce a minor burn.
Level five abilities: Manipulating flames is something that comes naturally at this point. However to create large flames that could cause destruction, he is dependent on a source such as a lighter to start it. He could create fireballs from this source as well to use as an offensive attack. His body is able to withstand flames for up to 5 minutes. This power has become very practical in keeping others warm in an emergency at this point. The longer he is allowed to touch someone's skin, the worse the burn can become. Once in awhile, he can use fire as a means to send himself high into the air.
Weakness/drawback: If used too frequently, he will be left with no energy. Especially if he is producing fire without a source to manipulate it from. This will leave him exhausted. He is usually limited to using only a source since most times if he creates flames on his own it will be small and not very useful in an event of danger. This power can be catastrophic at high levels. It can be very difficult to control fire and it can easily get out of hand. Additionally, he is not completely immune to fire. He can withstand it for certain periods of time but too much exposure will burn him like anyone else. Any water-related power will render him useless and oxygen is always needed to produce and maintain flames.
History History: Jason Salvatore grew up as the arrogant son of two movie stars who never seemed to have time for him and his younger sister Cassie. When you're born rich, you don't have a care in the world and your life seems to already be made for you. As a result, Jason never put much effort into school or his future. He spent much of his time lounging around, chasing girls and partying. Unfortunately, his life took an awful turn and his luck just about ran out. His mother died early on due to drug abuse and his father remarried a year or two after. When Jason turned seventeen, his father got into a car accident and passed away himself. However, to his disbelief, his bitter stepmother inherited all every bit of the money and then sent Jason and Cassie to live with their ill grandfather, who lived for only two years after that. Luckily, he was a kinder man and left his apartment and the small amount of money he had to the two of them. Jason was able to use this to enroll himself in a mediocre college. He got himself a job as a waiter and used whatever time he had at home to fend for his younger sister Cassie.
The day before the bus ride:
Jason stood in a black tux and red tie before the seated plump, tourist family. Two children giggled as they threw their menus across the table at each other, their grimy little hands up in their air, ready to catch the black book. He grimaced at the thought of having to collect those menus from them. Certainly their fingers had just been previously in their noses. Although Jason did like kids, he was about to pull his hair out if he had to deal with another spoiled brat who demanded he give them half the menu and another pair of idiotic parents who insisted he do it. Then the child would waste all of it as well as his parents money.
He couldn't really remember if he was that kid once but he wanted to separate himself from that spoiled, rich idiot he had been as much as he could. Living in a four room apartment had really changed his perspective on things in life. Well, not
all things. He threw a charming smile towards a pretty girl passing him, giving her a quick call-me gesture.
"Errmm..."The woman muttered, her heavily-colored eyes set on the menu before her as she flipped through the pages. "Is there anything to drink that's under one hundred calories?"
I bet she just made four thousand calories today and now just started to worry. Jason thought bitterly to himself. The woman was no light weight and no light drink was going to help her there.
"Well. There's water, ma'am."Jason told her, smiling lightly.
"Aw. Isn't he just a cutie patootie, Walter? Such a charmer. How come you weren't more like him at that age?"
"What do you mean?" Walter demanded, "What's so great about him?"
"Here we go."Jason muttered under his breath as yet the third argument of the day commenced and of course, yet again, he'd be pinned a troublemaker. Luckily enough his shift was pretty much over. He had an hour left but he just didn't have the patience to deal with these people. He tapped a nearby waiter. "My shift's done. Get this table for me, will you?" He patted his back, "Thanks, bud."
With that, Jason left the restaurant and made his way to the bus stop. He impatiently waited for fifteen minutes, tapping his foot and ignoring the glares he received. Upon his arrival to his home, he quickly changed into comfortable clothes and hit the couch exhaustedly. He hated working and he hated classes. Never in a million years had he thought he'd be stuck in this situation yet here he was. Jason found he felt more sorry for his poor sister than himself. Poor girl was stuck with a sap like him for a guardian.
