## Image Gallery

**Chandra Hume** (チャンドラ ヒューム, *Chandora Hyūmu*?) is a Choujin who made his appearance at the very start of the first chapter. He's commonly known as the plane terrorist attacker. He is known as the **Smoke Choujin** (煙の超人, *Kemuri no Chōjin*?).

## Appearance

Chandra is a tall man, who appears to be in his mid thirties or forties. He has a thin face with visible cheek-bones, and relatively crooked nose, as well as slick, combed-back black hair. Perhaps his most notable facial feature are his completely white eyes.

Chandra can be seen wearing a black suit that fits him rather perfectly, as well as a watch on his left hand.

## Personality

Due to his appearances being rather scarce, we don't know what type of person Chandra is. However, judging from the scene at the start of Chapter 1, we can surmise that Chandra has a rather short temper, as he tried to hit an old lady, who wasn't able to unzip her belt quickly enough. He also doesn't seem to have a problem with violence, as he killed several passengers with his ability, for no apparent reason.

Furthermore, after having his swing intercepted by Ely, Chandra stated that his actions weren't "beautiful" and that he'd rank that as "second-rate". Immediately following those words, Chandra said that "first-rate would look more like this", as he proceeded to unleash his Choujin ability and slaughter innocent passengers. It's currently unknown what he meant with these statements, though one can assume it has something to do with his violence.

## Background

Currently, nothing is known about Chandra's background, besides the fact that he was seemingly headed to an important gig, right before the start of the main series. Once again, the nature of his words remain as vague as they can be.

## Plot

### Uncrossed Paths Arc

Chandra is first seen waking up on a plane looking at his watch as he is late for an unknown appointment, he tries to get past an old lady but she takes too long taking off her seatbelt and he attempts to strike her, being stopped by Ely. He unleashes his choujin powers and burns a lot of people in the plane alive, infecting Ely with his powers.
After leaving the plane, he burns a person alive who was trying to help Ely, asking if he should escort Ely instead, she instantly makes a run for it and he uses his smoke abilities to propel himself in the air and seemingly fly. He quickly catches up and over takes Ely, she steals a **"Roller Boy Yay-Yay"**, Chandra also steals one and chases after her, after meeting with a gang wearing sheep masks, he offers a phone if they capture Ely, as they debate it, Chandra burns one of them alive and says that he is impatient. They are all seen chasing after Ely, and is very pleased as Ely uses her smoke powers and burns them all, he rebuilds himself with his smoke, remarking that that was what he wanted to see and tells her that she was infected with his smoke and says he'll teach Ely all about her powers and how to use them, Ely calls his powers worse than a turd, in which he gets furious and grabs her and pins her against a wall and threatens her. He is interrupted by Hoshi, who uses his choujin powers to stop Chandra, he uses his smoke to attack Ely so Hoshi stops it but in the midst, Chandra got away.

Chandra is next seen inside Omega Tower, talking to a giant beast, she asks Chandra does he feel it and says that she feels the birth of one of her beasts.

Chandra remarks that Mother continues to weaken, as he sits on a bucket drinking. He notices that his smoke hasn't been as forthcoming as it used to be which is probably caused by his age, he says that he needs to find the beast that Mother seeks first before Noh Mask, saying that he is the only one that should be receiving Mother's affection.

## Abilities

Chandra is able to generate super-heated smoke from his fingertips in large quantities and for dozens of meters, enough to even slow down the descent of an entire airplane down to a relatively safe level and prevent its crash. By accumulating the fumes instead of releasing them naturally, he is able to release a large explosion that sends fire projectiles flying in every direction. While normally he controls his smoke to stay between the temperatures of 200 and 250 degrees Celsius. during their highest output they can even reach over 3000 degrees. By raising the temperature of his smoke, he is able to engulf his body in flames that incinerate anything that comes into contact with him, while also producing toxic fumes.
Chandra is able to fire a quick series of huge columns of smoke that move fast and with great accuracy. The fumes are hot enough to instantly engulf in flames his targets.
Chandra is able to transform parts or the entirety of his body into clouds of smoke, allowing him to ignore certain enemy attacks and evade them thanks to his gas form and then reform his body and catch them by surprise
Chandra is able to create smoke clouds to propel himself forward and upward, allowing himself to fly to high altitudes, at high speed and for an extended period. Covering himself in his smoke he can transform himself into a fire missile and cause an explosion on impact.
