Dracula who?
Stubborn, meticulous, comical, hot headed at times,
Flame retardant suit and gloves
Samuel Lark was an average teen who discovered he had super speed at the age of 15. However Samuel couldn't control his powers heat and it burned his clothes when he ran in hot environments, for a long time, or at maximum speed, so his parents got him a black flame retardant suit. He was often looked at as a freak in his town and was sent to a special academy for unique individuals just like him at the age of 16. During this time Samuel learned to master his power and using friction he learned he could make fire. This was also around the same time he met Malice. They'd started dating the second day of their time at the academy. Just months before graduation, the academy had closed down as hate for unique individuals like himself grew.

Samuel lived well in a mansion hidden away in the Colorado mountain range. He was able to dodge The Organization by staying in that secluded area.
The Organization inevitably caught him during his days of luxury by invading his home. He was brought to a facility where he was kept prisoner for a short amount of time thanks to a massive breakout weeks later. After escaping he joined a group that set out to take down The Organization, which they did succeed in doing, but not without heavy loses. During this war Samuel found Malice had been brainwashed into an Organization puppet. Samuel rescued her by running at his maximum speed which caused his skin to burn intensely, so much that he was barely recognizable. Shortly after her rescue Samuel admitted to her that he wanted to be with her forever and he wanted to become a vampire along side her.
After the defeat of the Organization, which some details remain unknown, Samuel and Malice had a moment of peace...
