Origin: Mutant
Powers:
Pyrokinesis: The ability to control ambient heat energy and the physical ability to transform her entire body, or portions of her body into a fiery, plasma-like state of will. The cells of a normal human body convert energy from foodstuffs into a form of energy usable by the body, adenosine triphosphate (ATP).
Using this power, she can via concentration and focus, generate and control fire (including external sources of fire, even if they are mystical, like holy fire, or hellfire), and achieve flight by entering a plasma form and generating controlled heat thrust.
As a result of her powers, she is unharmed by heat of any kind and does not sweat, as her body has no need to cool itself down. She still experiences muscle fatigue, but can push herself harder as she will not overheat.
When she enters her plasma form, she does not need to breathe, and most diseases and toxins in her body are burned out of her system, including hair dye. The process also causes her entire physical body to be "reset," as she explains it. While it won't undo all manner of injury, it does reverse a very limited degree of her natural aging process, an hour here, a day there--meaning as long as she enters her plasma form often enough, she could potentially live forever--on the other hand, unless she is already naked, entering plasma form will burn her clothes.
Note: Ceara does has only recently discovered her powers. She does not currently know how to control or use them effectively--the above entry lists what she can potentially do in time.
Weapons:
A sword, pair of knives, and some weird blade thing she's picked up along her travels. As yet, she is unaware of them having any special qualities.
She is not a trained combatant as yet, but likes having access to weapons, as revealing her mutation is not always the best option.
Weaknesses:
-
Powers do not work in a vaccuum.
-
Powers burn her clothes unless they are fire-proof. Currently she possesses none, meaning she often burns her clothes. Shut up Joe.
-
Has issues using firearms since her powers often can ignite the gunpowder inside them.
-
Cannot control fire that is already under the control of another, unless her control is stronger (this is decided between typists).
-
Powers need concentration to be effective.
-
Her body naturally generates a high temperature, making her easier to detect with infra-red and heat seeking weapons.
