==Appearance==
Matsuoka Raita's current appearance hasn't been described, though he has been noted to have had plastic surgery to change it from his original appearance.
==Personality==
Most of his personality isn't known, though he apparently received psychological wounds as a result of the Fireball Case and was later quite willing to distribute videos to teach people how to commit arson-related crimes, as well as accepting money and doing similar jobs for others.
==Background==
In the past, in what would later be called the , surveillance drones kept bursting into flames or crashing. The electronics company involved, not wanting to conduct a recall which would cost them billions, falsely accused Matsuoka Raita of being the culprit responsible for the incidents. It was eventually discovered that they had fabricated the charges and they ended up having a rough time with the Civil Rehabilitation Law. However this wasn't enough to heal the psychological wounds dealt to Raita, who subsequently posted dangerous 'how to' videos online to teach people how to trigger fires and explosions without using an esper power, leading to various people committing crimes based on his instructions.
He was later arrested but due to Tsujinaka Kyouka, he wasn't indicted. He then got plastic surgery and slipped through Judgment and Anti-Skill's surveillance. Having trouble getting by without an ID, he was bought over by Tsujinaka.
