Character
Personality: Blue does what he wants. He has used his powers to push people around and get his way most of his life. If anyone gets too close, he will burn them, both figuratively and literally. Because of his rough childhood, he tends to come across as manipulative, dark, and broody. There isn't much of a soft side to him at this point. He is just a twisted soul with a pyromaniac burning in the core.
Hobbies/ Interests: Blue likes to play guitar, and other musical instruments, which goes against his very "anti-people" attitude. He has no interest in a career or paying bills the normal way, he would rather push people around to do things for him. He came to New York to get away from his father, and is finding more resistance in the city than his old hometown. He may have to pick up a new hobby or two.
Job or part time job and description: None currently
Fears/ phobias/ concerns: Blue is afraid of his father, and also a bit of the dark, but he is always on fire so he never really has to deal with that fear.
Special talents: Blue is a good skateboarder, and very nimble.
Morality
Good/ bad/ neutral/ other: Blue is bad. He was raised by a father who despised him, and ran away as soon as he could. When his powers adapted to the point he could actually burn people, he used to to his advantage and took advantage of peoples kindness. Blue can manipulate if he wants, pretend to be a hopeless mutant down on his luck. But don't let him fool you, he has one interest in mind, and that's himself.
Mutations
Mutation description: Blue is always on fire. Literally. His body is constantly releasing blue flames that remain connected to his body. Unlike normal flames, they have a very low heat, and they tend to 'curve' away from objects. For instance, if Blue is wearing a shirt, the flames would appear down his arms, up his neck, face, and anywhere skin is exposed. If he is sitting on a couch, the flames would curl away from the couch. They only extend about 5 inches away from his body, losing substance the further away they are. The flames have light to them, so he has learned to cover his eyes when he sleeps with a mask. If he ever had to share a room, he would be like a fireplace constantly flickering.
The flip-side of his mutation is Blue has the ability to turn his flames 'on'. If he gets angry, the flames become normal fire, and react, burn, and scorch just like real flames. He is immune to fire himself, but his clothing, surroundings, and other people can then be impacted by them. He has burnt many articles of clothing losing his temper, so he has come to be fairly confident in his figure. If you're going to end up naked a lot, you need to stay in shape.
Blue's flames are not impacted by water, ice, or other elements when attached to his body. This is why he is known as "pilot". He is the pilot flame that never goes out. Water will react much like clothing, causing the flames to curl in toward his body or compress to a thin film. If he is completely submerged, he and the flames will both be "holding their breathe. Anything he sets on fire, however, can be put out.
Strengths: Blue is, first of all, immune to fire, and immune to cold. His body absorbs heat and turns it back into his flames, recycling energy for his own purposes. This also functions to prevent him from feeling the cold by his natural heat. If he is feeling tired, he could curl up in a fire and let his body take in some of the energy. Flames are his friend! Blue is also able to breathe smoke. When he is hanging out in a fireplace, he isn't slowly killing himself with smoke inhalation.
Blue also has two 'special attacks' he has managed to generate, each taking a significant amount of energy. The first attack is simply a fire blast. Channeling all his energy toward his palms, he "releases" his flames and the fire ignites outward. The torch has a temperature of around 800 degrees Fahrenheit, and can last for about 30 seconds. He can blast this about 5 feet from his body. The second is to concentrate his flames into one hand, creating a "butane torch", if you will. This pinpoint of heat can reach almost 1000 degrees Fahrenheit, and can last for almost 5 minutes. It is very small and concentrated, no more than about 4 inches from his body. Great for cutting through metal or breaking into things, but not good for large scale attacks.
Weaknesses and Limitations: Blue only has control of the flames attached to his body. Once they ignite anything near him, they are separate. If he lights wood on fire, he could pick it up and throw it, but cannot cause the fire to redirect on it's own. Blue also has to stay well fed, whether by heat, fire, or calories. He steals a lot of food and eats like a teenage boy constantly growing. Fire is hungry, and especially during seasons where it is colder and he has less heat to absorb, he can feel tired and weaker.
Physical Abilities Blue is fairly fit. Think, athletic but not body builder. He likes to look good, and is very smug about his appearance.
General Physical Capabilities: Above average strength, average speed, above average flexibility. He is built for endurance, not single powerful attacks.
Fighting Style: Let them burn! When someone pisses his off, he lights what he can on fire and watches the show. Blue would rather sit on a log and let the world burn down around him. The flames make him feel energizes, and he basks like a happy little salamander as everything falls apart around him.
Fighting Style Pros/Cons: Blue doesn't have to do much if he can just let the fire do the work. What's to worry about when you aren't going to be hurt by the fire? If someone else is, that's not his problem.
History Of Your Character
Blue grew up in a tiny town in Utah, with his deadbeat dad. His mom was jailed shortly after giving birth to him, and eventually ran out, never to return. Blue has had powers since the moment his mother gave birth, earning him the name "Blue". He thought it was awful original too. His dad wasn't bad in the beginning, but grew frustrated with the annoying light show his son seemed to constantly have.
By the time Blue was 7, his dad became more violent. He would drink, hit things, hit people. Blue learned to stay out of his way, and eventually, he learned to ignite his powers to avoid his father's touch. At first he could only burn people, letting the flames generate heat, but as he grew, so did his flames. Now, he is 25 and his flames have a will as strong as his. He is looking for a new place to settle, and is willing to push away those who would stop him.

Sample RP:
New York was bigger than Blue expected, which gave him a small sense of thrill. The buildings stretched above him, people flooded around him, and even the bravest seem to give him a wide berth as he walked down the street. Blue was wearing a short sleeved shirt, arms exposed with the dancing flames he was known for. He was comfortable even in the chilly weather, enjoying the subtle thrum of his own powers rushing through him.
Humans were idiots, really. They scurried away from his fire as if expecting him to spontaneously ignite. He walked into a restaurant, and walked out with a fresh steak without even lifting a finger. Then again, few chefs wanted to fight when they saw a human flame coming near their gas lines. It didn't take much to threaten people these days.
As he walked, someone gave a curious look, longer than most. Blue responded by staring right back, leaning forward with a sneer. "What's the matter, luv? Afraid of a little fire?"
She jerked backward, and he grinned wider.
"I'm sorry, I just, the colors, I thought they were pretty."
"Pretty?" He frowned, letting the heat carry down one arm, reaching a palm out toward her. A little fireball gathered there, licking eagerly for something to feast on. "Fire is a lot of things, dear. Wild, angry. Dangerous. I wouldn't get so close if I were you, though." He reached forward and she screamed as the sleeve of her jacket caught fire. A few strangers quickly helped put it out, before trying to get out of harms way. Blue just clicked his tongue against his teeth. "Shame really. Fire likes to burn."
