Blu Jay

*"I always wanted to be a hero."*
―Blu Jay
***The Boy Who Never Stayed Down***

## Biography

### Early Life

Blu Jay was left at the door step of a gang of street vigilantes when he was only three years old. He grew up alongside the members of the gang, and frequently his friend Pink Minx, where he learned the streets of the city, as well as honed his skills in combat and acrobatics.

However, an accident at a factory at the age of fourteen left Blu Jay without a family once again, but it was not all bad. The accident awakened latent abilities, making Blu Jay stronger than before, while also bringing him together with a future lifelong friend, Lightstreak. The two worked together for the next two years as a team, serving out justice on the other side of the law as best they could.

## Personality

Blu Jay sees himself as the leader of the Q-Listers, but his impatience, impulsiveness, and smart-mouth personality tend to make that a bit more difficult for him. Having spent most of his free time watching movies and reading comics, he is incredibly genre savvy, sometimes able to get out of tight spots simply because he recognizes it from some place else. However, it means that he will actively avoid certain situations and stubbornly pursue others if they line up with the stories he’s read or watched, regardless of what the outcome of it might be.

Blu Jay greatly values the relationships he has with his friends and allies and can sometimes become saddened or angered when he feels that those relationships are dwindling. In most situations, Blu Jay values the lives of his friends far more than his own and will surrender himself to what appears to be certain death as long as it ensures the safety of his friends.

However, much of his snarky behavior is to the hide a massive inferiority complex bundled with survivor's guilt, pushing him to seek approval from those around him. This has turned him into a perfectionist and someone who can grow frustrated quite quickly should something start to turn south. Despite his cocky and smart mouth exterior, Blu Jay often greatly underestimates himself and his abilities. However, this makes him only more determined to fight even harder and prove himself as one of the best heroes in the world.

## Powers & Abilities

*"Go on! **Dare to defy me!**"*
―Blu Jay
### Powers

* **Uncommon Physiology**
	+ **Longevity**
	+ **Regenerative Healing Factor**: As an Uncommon, Blu Jay heals at a considerably faster rate than a normal human. He is also able to heal from wounds normal humans reasonably shouldn't be able to heal from, such as healing completely from complete spinal destruction over the span of just a single year.
	+ **Superhuman Agility**
	+ **Superhuman Durability**
	+ **Superhuman Strength**: Under normal circumstances, Blu Jay can only lift around the same weight as an uncommon of his age, which clocks in at around 10-15 tons. However, it was later discovered that his emotional state could influence his maximum strength. When entering either a state of unbridled rage, calm tranquility, or pure determination, Blu Jay's strength can skyrocket and allow him to hold up a collapsing building.
	+ **Superhuman Senses**
		- **Superhuman Hearing**
		- **Telescopic Vision**
	+ **Superhuman Speed**
		- **Superhuman Reflexes**
	+ **Flame Synergy**: Due to his relationship with his friends and state of mind achieved through intense training with Dino and Shinovi, Blu Jay can channel the emotional flame that flows through him, allowing him to "hold" and wield elemental energies such as fire and electricity. However, wielding an element, like fire, directly from a willing and consenting Tractactori, like Maia, allows his impacts to carry a massive concussive blast. This effect is very much absent when he wields a naturally occurring element or one from an unconsenting Tractactori.

### Abilities

* **Acrobatics**
* **Athletics**
* **Leadership**
* **Martial Arts**: Blu Jay has spent much of his adolescence training to be one of the best fighters on the planet, having studied multiple martial arts from multiple teachers, such as the Ethers, Dino, Raia Yuki, Frae Angel, Shinovi, and Bingo. He has even studied a few martial arts that have originated from other planets. He also claims to have mastered arts such as the Mishima-Ryu, Turtle School, Hokuto Shin Ken, and The Way of the Spider, which is Spider-Man's unique and personal fighting style. No one has been able to prove or disprove this claim.
