Background:
He was born
and raised in the poorer part
of Miami. His parents fought alot, but stayed
together for the children, himself and his three
sisters (one older, two younger), not the best choice.
The household was filled with screaming, crying and
threats. There was some abuse until Toby was 14, when
he slugged his father and told him never again. And
it was never again.
He was a poor student, more due to laziness nad lack
of motivation than actual stupidity, and was advanced
with his class due to his baseball talent. He was a
pitcher and was beginning to get scouted by colleges
and MLB when his junior year started. It was about
that time that he started to run fevers, though he
felt fine. Then one afternoon he was fighting with
some of the neighborhood guys. He picked up a rock to
throw it at one who was running away, and it was
followed by fire. Luckily the guy survived and had no
idea what happened, since Toby had run away. His
father discovered his secret when he went out back to
where Toby was, and saw fire dancing in his hand,
being thrown into a neighbor's kiddie pool.
A fight between father and son resulted, with his
father kicking him out of the house. Toby called his
older sister in Trenton, NJ, who had a secret of her
own. She was a low level empath. She took her
brother in, but soon learned neither one could control
his power, or teach him how to. He grew frustrated,
his sister is the one person who went on a limb for
him, and he was nothing but trouble, so he left.
Due to his attitude and personality, he ended up, not
surprisingly on the "wrong side" of the mutant war.
Personality: He's an angry young man who often stuffs
it down so he appears mildly pleasant, but things can
set him off. He's not comfortable with being a
mutant, feeling it has basically ruined his life, but
at the same time thinks his power is the coolest
Known mutant powers:
Pyrokinesis
~It appears as a stream from his hands until he shuts
it off. He can ball it up in his hands, but when he
throws it, it's still a stream. Obviously this won't
work in any environment that's not fire friendly, eg
vaccuum or underwater. And it can be put out like
normal fire, and behaves like normal fire. Once he
throws it, he has no control over it. He can throw at
targets he can visualize with accuracy (due to his
baseball background, not a mutant power). He can't
curve it to go around corners or anything like that.
He has a resistance to fire and heat because of his
powers, its a physiological adaptation. He can't be
burned by his own fire, and you have to use an
accelerant like gasoline to hurt him with other fire.
In that case he'd burn like everyone else. His normal
body temperature hovers around 101 F.
