Name: Joshua Joseph Arrowsmith Alias:Avatar Age: 31 Gender:Male Skills/Powers: Joshua has the uncanny ability to absorb and channel Solar energy, this can cause him to do allot of things, one of his most basic abilities is to create fire and manipulate it, being able to start and stop it with a flick of a wrist, though it appears cannot manipulate fires created by other sources other than solar, for example it a kid starts a forest fire with a lighter, he is as useless as another match, but if it with a magnifying glass it will be gone before you can say "Stop drop and/or roll". he is also able to set his entire body on fire (see human torch for details), while doing this he can create small solar winds and fly. One of his smaller abilities is to project the suns raw beams to make plants grow at an alarming rate,or too give someone a boost of vitamin D. Whats also interesting is that Joshua has an exceptional healing factor. Equipment (Doesn't have to be weapons): N/A Personality: Joshua is a very outgoing person, always trying to make jokes too bring people's spirits up, he's the type of guy that would seem like a Superman in the making, but unfortunately being a 'hero' is harder than it looks, he didn't realize living his dream would kill his loved ones and thousands of innocents, and that was just him... The villains made him do it. Now he's a cold, ruthless "hero", killing anyone who dare hurt anyone else, or leave them with permanent burns on places noticeable. Weakness:While channeling the suns Ray's to make plants grow,etc he has a chance to get skin cancer, even though his cells are constantly dying and being replenished it can mess with his system, making him lose most, if not all of his powers for a few days,months or permanently. While wet he cannot use ANY of his powers, doing so it can cause steam and he could suffocate Hero or Villain: Anti-Hero?. If that's an option... History:Joshua was an astronaut, going through the training and everything,get ready to go up for the first time, until he was diagnosed with cancer, which cut his career short because he only had 3 months to live. Needless to say he was crushed,shattered. For the first month he just moped around and took his treatments. When someone came knocking on his door, it was a Doctor Silver, he said he had heard of his predicament and wanted him to test a new experimental procedure. For the first time Joshua's eyes lit up and agreed, he signed all the papers shoved into his face and in 2 weeks time was prepped for surgery. What was explained to him was they were going to destroy the cancer cells and put in these modified stem cells that would not only fill in for the cancer cells but would heighten his immune system by 100%. The surgery was a complete success. He made a full recovery and he was back on schedule for the launch. On the day of the launch they got up and out of orbit when a Solar flare was released that hit the ship, everyone inside was incinerated except for Joshua, who was somehow spared, he fell back down to earth landing somewhere in the desert, where he found a lost tribe that pulled him from the wreckage. He lived with them for a long time in royalty, until one day he saw a military Humvee driving by in the distant horizon, abandoning his tribe he was flown back to america after he got back to civilization. After many, Many tests it was discovered that the stem cells, instead of killing JUST the cancer cells it killed all of his white blood cells replacing them with the stem cells which took in the radiation from the solar flare and kind of copied that, changing his entire cell production, like it had done the cancer cells,Changing him. He took this opportunity to become Avatar, a new superhero. But it was not what it seemed, Doctor Silver did this procedure on another man, Andre Opp and it was a success, but Andre thought he could become another Helios, he exposed himself to uranium and became an abomination, a ten foot tall glowing green monster with the ability's too control radiation. He blamed Joshua and went after him. The monster slaughter his father,Mother,Brother and wife. Joshua confronted Andre, who lured him to a solar power plant,made Joshua Overload and cause an explosion wiping out a small town. Joshua survived the explosion but then went into hiding. Moving to New york after he discovered that Andre also survived in some Devil spun miracle and has come out of hiding to confront him.
