Incendiary

"I'm sick of bein' told what to do! I'll blow shit up when I want, wherever I want! And that includes you, you fuckin' hear me!?" ~ Incendiary threatening Rasmus Clypeus during their mission to take down Vivienne Heart.Incendiary (Real name Joseph Watts, also known as The Serpent's Teeth) is a Super, convicted war criminal, and member of the Four Kings, working under James Adnoartina in his faction of Kata Tjuṯa. He is one of James' top bodyguards, and James usually chooses him to accompany him on negotiations, usually because his power is ideal for quickly dispatching enemies if a negotiation fails, but also because his physical build and attitude can help intimidate a rival organization into joining them or stepping down.
== Appearance ==
Incendiary is a caucasian male of average height and has a bulky build due to his over half a decade of military training. His body is littered with numerous battle scars. His hair is a deep ginger, his eyes glow a piercing orange due to his Aura. 
Incendiary typically dons a military uniform, with a short sleeved military shirt depicting his name on its breast pocket, and a pair of military pants with several pockets for holding various items, which Incendiary usually imbues with his explosive Aura. Atop of his head, he is usually wearing a military beret. 
== Personality ==
Incendiary is incredibly volatile, becoming enraged at even the slightest of insults and consistently threatening to blow up his allies. His most common victim of this is Déplacé Temps, due to his disdain towards her for climbing to second-in-command of Kata Tjuṯa, despite her joining over a year after he did. However, Incendiary usully never acts upon his threats towards his allies, denoting at least some form of self-control. 
Incendiary's most defining trait is his intense passion for causing havoc and anarchy. His power compliments this, and he often disobeys direct orders in favor of taking the most violent route possible. 
In battle, Incendiary's nature truly shines. He will attempt to overwhelm his enemies with the destructive force of his explosive Aura, and typically never shows mercy to a defeated foe, sometimes even killing them in turtorous ways such as blowing their limbs off one by one.
Incendiary enjoys inflicting pain and causing havoc, and claims that there is nothing more fulfilling. It is unknown when or why he developed these tendencies, but he likely always had them before he even developed his powers, though his powers more than likely had a part in fully bringing out these traits.
== Backstory ==
Not much is known about Incendiary, other than the fact that he was born Joseph Watts, Dec. 4, 2030. Born in Austin, Texas, Joseph joined the US military when he was 20. For six years, Joseph trained and nothing too eventful happened, however in his last year, he would spend most of his time defending the American-Canadian border from Alliance troops. In 2056, Joseph suddenly snapped for unknown reasons, and opened fire on his commanding officer and his squadron during a firing practice session. He killed all but one of his squad, and was subdued by another soldier as he looked on in disbelief at what he just did. 
Joseph was immediately discharged and sent to the New York City supermax facility, where he would face the death penalty for his actions. However, on the night of his execution, the great cataclysm known as the Spellplague took place. It was then that Joseph awakened his powers, and described it as "the most absolute, raw, euphoric sensation you could possibly feel". The prison erupted into chaos, prisoners and guards alike awakening previously hidden abilities. Suddenly, a rogue prisoner busted open Joseph's cell, and charged at him in a frenzy. Joseph put his arms up, blocking the strike and preparing to have his arms snapped. However, they weren't. In fact, the man's fist had bounced off the arm. Joseph opened his eyes to witness a bright orange, glowing energy emitting from his arms. The prisoner charged at him again, only this time Joseph lashed out and grabbed him by the throat. He witnessed this orange energy flow into the prisoner. He dropped the prisoner, only to see him erupt into an orange light, before exploding, sending blood and guts all over the cell. However, Joseph was not horrfied at this sight. In fact, he had enjoyed it. He used his new found "explosive" powers to bust his way out of the prison. 
Sometime within the next three years, he would adopt the nickname "Incendiary" join the Four Kings.
== Equipment ==
* .44 Magnum: Incendiary carries a .44 magnum revolver on hand, and usually infuses the bullets shot with explosive energy. The exact reason he carries a .44 magnum revolver specifically is because "it is satisfying to pull back the hammer and blow someone's brains out".
* Bowie Knife: Incendiary carries a large bowie knife on hand, which he usually uses to brutalize his opponents.
== Powers and Abilities ==
* Aura Manipulation: Incendiary's main ability is to control Aura. He is able to coat his body in a protective layer of Aura, as well as transfer it into someone.
** Bomb Creation: The special property of Incendiary's Aura is its ability to turn people and objects into bombs. If transferred into someone or something, they become volatile explosives that can blow up on Incendiary's will. Incendiary is able to infuse bullets with this explosive Aura, causing them to become explosive projectiles. Incendiary can even infuse other Auras, as seen in his battle with Vivienne Heart, though this is only due to the fact that Aura is excellent at transporting other powers. The power of the explosion produced by an Aura-infused object varies depending on how much Aura Incendiary injected into the object in question. Incendiary can only infuse an object or person with his explosive Aura if his hands are making physical contact with them.
=== Significant Traits ===
* Soldier: Incendiary has over half a decade's worth of military training, and is proficient in CQC and firearms training. He has above average strength and is very athletic. He also has an unusually high tolerence to pain.
