CLYDE RUSSO

rank. villain age. twenty gender male sexuality. pansexual

accessories/scars. one pierced ear, and a flame tattoo up the side of his neck.

appearance. clyde is tall with a muscular build and a prominent jawline. he has sharp, thick, dark eyebrows with round, doe-like, cinnamon-brown eyes. he has short, slightly wavy side-parted black hair. often wears dark clothing, preferably a leather jacket or just a black t-shirt.

personality. clyde was always a hard-working and good-natured boy when he was younger. however, once his parents died and he became an orphan, he began to not care about the world anymore. he doesn't talk much, mostly because he doesn't have the amount of confidence like the other villains do. he ignores any empathy he gets, or self-doubt about what he's doing, and instead uses his flames and built-up anger as a distraction. he's loyal to his friends, albeit not trusting people easily, but also hard-headed and won't back down from a challenge or fight. truly thoughtful and caring at heart, but now brash and selfish, clyde has lost himself in a deep hole of dark hopelessness, trying to throw away his emotions by just calling them weak and hiding from the truth. he has grown over time to become a pessimist who's given up on humanity.

powers.

> positive - combat knowledge, the ability to use any fighting skills; he has quicker reflexes as well as knowledge of any fighting technique, including weaponry. however, he learns over time from experience and other people using the techniques.

> elemental - pyrokinesis, the power to manipulate and control fire. he can use it to manipulate heat, incinerate if the opponent is kept still, as a defensive shield, and encase it on his body. however, too much of the heat can cause his own power to turn on him and overheat his body; potentially burning himself in the process both inside and on the outside.

> negative - magma manipulation, the power to manipulate and control magma. must combine his fire and earth to do so, however, to use it, his body will morph with the power. glowing cracks of magma will form along his body and light up his eyes. it can give him shielding and strength, but take away speed and agility. the negative side effect is it wears him down after a while as heavy armor would.

illnesses. anxiety

history. clyde grew up with two wonderful parents as his role-models, giving him a kind and generous heart. however, that all left him on the unfortunate day they had both died due to a drunken driver crashing into them at night. clyde was put into an orphan home, not having any close enough and stable relatives to watch over him. often bullied in school, and then left to be alone in the orphan home, clyde began to grow in resentment to the people who "had it all". the home often ran out of money to keep it going at times, feeding onto clyde's growing dislike for the wealthy and privileged. finally, at the age of eighteen, clyde left the home and found a part-time job; living his life in a small apartment, but it was home for him. he got involved in underground business and found out about his powers in a gang fight in some alleyway. ever since he's gone incognito and later on joined the villains after one of them found out about his powers and recruited him.

extra notes.

- big time pessimist

- often plays around with his fire to distract himself of his anxiety

- secretly a softie but will never show it
