Biography =
Jamie Adeyemi is a radiant hailing from the Peckham district in London, England. Growing up, Adeyemi attended a Performing Arts school in the area but was later suspended. Recruited into the VALORANT Protocol as its ninth agent, "Phoenix", Adeyemi was heavily involved with the Protocol's activities from 10 AFL onwards. With much information kept from him as need-to-know as a recent recruit, he was unable to prevent a spike detonation in Venice whilst on a solo mission. Phoenix was given another opportunity to stop one the next day when another attack occurred in Rabat, and it was here that he first came face-to-face with the sole perpetrator, his own Omega counterpart. Frustrated with how much was being kept in the dark, despite going on to prevent the detonation this time with the help of a team, Phoenix was finally filled in on the threat posed by Omega Earth.

===Personality===
A duelist by role and nature, Phoenix is brash, impulsive, and has a lot of confidence, never hesitating to charge into a fight head-on despite not getting a full grasp of the situation, much to the chagrin of his more collected teammates. If he gets himself in a sticky situation caused by his own impatience, he is more than capable of quickly adapting to the circumstances and turning the tables around, before rubbing it in the faces of teammates who initially doubted him. 
His lack of patience is only confirmed by Sova, who reminds him to learn the virtue before they can enjoy a strategic game of chess. However, Phoenix does take his allies' insights into consideration as shown in "WARM UP," wherein he rethinks his strategy after Cypher noted that sacrifice plays for victory's sake was initially not the Brit's style. 
Despite Phoenix's hasty ways, he is known as a prodigy (claiming that it wasn't his own words), and he always proves it one way or another.
===Appearance===
Phoenix is a dark skinned, youthful tall man of Afro-British descent who wears a black long sleeve shirt with a white Phoenix graphic underneath his white jacket. He wears dark baggy pants with straps that hold bullets shells and a pair of black sneakers that have white soles and orange laces. His jacket notably has fiery-colored lighting on its inside. His hair is in short black dreadlocks, bright orange dyed tips and shaved sides. Phoenix's facial features are undoubtedly sharp, having a strong jawline with high cheekbones. He also accessorizes with gold earrings and a ring with a crown emblem that matches the patch on the right shoulder of his jacket.
In the WARM UP Cinematic, Phoenix instead wears a dark green long sleeve shirt with a crown graphic in the center under his jacket, which he reveals that he buys in bulk.

== Trivia ==
*Phoenix is a sneakerhead.
===Development===
* The earliest known concept of Phoenix is the scrapped agent, Shatter.
* An old game file from a very early stage in development shows the names of some of the agents at the time. One of the agents, 'Grant Galloway', had the call sign 'Phoenix'.Pre-Beta VALORANT Lore Dialogue
** Because this comes from a very early stage in development, it is likely that Grant Galloway and Phoenix may be completely different characters, even if they shared the same call signs or abilities, as evidenced by other agents from this stage also sharing call signs with current agents' code names despite appearing to have different nationalities and genders from each other.
