↓ extra notes.
As a "Baby" Villain, he doesn't really do much within the league - well, y'know, aside from causing trouble and giving everyone really, really big and terrible headaches. He is, however, loyal, and easy to push around, which is why no one's yet gotten around to actually throttling him.
↓ full name.
Clyde Anthony Gilbert
↓ age.
Seventeen / 5th June
↓ gender.
Male / Bisexual
↓ appearance.
He's blond, five-foot-ten, and weighs about as much as a sack of potatoes, which isn't very much, actually. He's built lightly - lean and slender, but with enough strength in what little muscle he has to lift a few automobiles. He's also got a few scars here and there, which is basically everywhere. He has two long ones slashed diagonally across the right side of his face (one going across his right eye), another going around his right shoulder, and more on the rest of his body (which can, at this point, pretty much be described as one large scar with occasional areas of skin). Most of them are burns; others, like the ones one his face, are knife wounds, and the rest are bullet wounds, lacerations, etc.
He mostly wears things that are light, comfortable, and loose, but not loose enough to actually pose a risk of catching fire. He's partial to boots, mostly because he thinks they look cool, but usually settles for sneakers because they're lighter and much easier to steal. Footwear tends to melt at relatively high temperatures. Clyde is pretty much a walking furnace, and thus needs to change footwear more often than what's considered healthy.
↓ biography.
BIO GOES HERE (try to condense into three paragraphs maximum por favor)
↓ likes.
- Food. He will eat anything and everything he can get his hands on, except cauliflowers because they're terrible and disgusting and evil in a way that no villain living or dead could ever hope to compare. He also may or may not be slightly jealous of Swallow because of this.
- Setting things on fire. It's one of the few things he's actually good at, and he can't be called a pyromaniac (emphasis on maniac) for nothing.
- Causing trouble. It's not that he wants to actively hurt people. He just likes watching them run around and scream and panic because it's funny, and he likes funny things.
- His scars. Some people try their damndest to hide theirs but he's actually proud of his scars because they represent all the pain and hardships he'd ever experienced, and that he's strong enough to have endured them. He knows the stories behind each one, and he'd even tell you, if you'd like.
- Being a villain, because he can do what he wants without having to worry about whether people like him or not.
↓ dislikes.
- Getting wet. When your primary ability is setting things on fire, you'd hate it too. Except baths. He loves baths, actually, and pools, but getting wet without the intention of cleaning himself is completely out of the question.
- Boredom; his natural enemy. He hates it. He always has to be kept entertained, or there will be consequences - consequences which include, but are not limited to things catching fire and/or blowing up.
- Secrets. He likes knowing things, and he doesn't like it when people keep things from him because he hates not knowing things, and will thus actively seek out answers.
- Long-winded speeches/sermons. He has the attention span of a ten year-old and words both bore and confuse him.
- Thinking. Like actual thinking. Stuff that involves logic and whatnot. He may be a bit more intelligent than your normal human being, but he doesn't like using it very much because thinking is tiring and he'd very much go and actually do stuff instead of wasting time thinking of what to do.
↓ fears.
- Dying in a non-spectacular fashion. He'd always thought death to be both a very fantastic and equally frightening thing, and he would very much like to go out in a bang rather than, say, getting crushed by a falling car, or choking on his own spit, or other tasteless, boring ways to die.
- He has abandonment issues. He lived most of his life alone, and thus treasures each and every connection and friend he's managed to make. Especially now that's he's part of something. It would definitely kill him to lose whatever it is that he's got with all the other villains.
- Permanently losing his powers. He's entertained the thought in the past, and came to the conclusion that it's the single worst thing ever, and that suicide is the only answer should it ever occur.
↓ aspirations.
- To be recognized as a real villain and to do more than just drive people insane.
- To make an explosion large and powerful enough to be seen from outer space.
↓ extra talents.
- He likes making things from little bits of wood like carvings and such, and even small toys. He's quite good at it, and his works can be surprisingly detailed if he puts some effort into it.
- He's very flexible. He can put a leg behind his head, bend his fingers backwards until they touch his wrist and everything.
- If anything, he has a pretty decent singing voice.
↓ strengths.
- His abilities are heat related. That being said, he can heat, set fire to, and even blow up objects through sheer willpower alone. He can also turn his immediate surroundings a few degrees higher if he so wished, and even eliminating water molecules by applying enough heat to break the bonds that hold them together. However, he has yet to try this on human beings and other living things.
- That being said, he can also, to some extent, breathe fire, but since he's an organic being and therefore quite flammable, he always ends up with more scorched taste buds than he's entirely comfortable with.
- Fortunately, the above only applies to his insides. His skin is tough enough to withstand very, very high temperatures, and even direct contact with fire.
↓ weaknesses.
- He can set things on fire, but he can't control fire. At least, not yet.
- The degree and intensity of the explosions he creates is directly proportional to the size of whatever he's trying to blow up, and the how hard and how long he concentrates to make it blow up. Therefore, the bigger the object, the harder and the longer he has to concentrate, and the longer and harder he concentrates, the stronger the explosion. This can be very tiring, and so he can't produce more than one or two large scale explosions at a time.
