Firestorm (Earth Twenty-One)

**Firestorm** is the name used by the transmuted people that were mutated by the Particle Accelerator in a specific manner. The duo to form Firestorm is Ronnie Raymond and his husband Ace Raymond.

## Personality

The personality of Firestorm is determined by the manner of how the individuals merged. If the individuals merged while fighting it, they result in an unstable form. While the more intellectual mind is in control, they still feel the consciousness of the other mind weighing on them. They also are unable to control their powers properly.

When merged while accepting the merge, both minds are consciously communicating with each other with the youthful mind in control of the body while the older mind can give advice to the youthful mind and guide them.

## Powers and abilities

### Powers

* **Nuclear physiology:** Firestorm gets his powers from the nuclear energy his body creates. This energy is the source of his pyrokinetic powers.
	+ **Nucleokinesis:** Firestorm is virtually a living reactor, and as such, creates great amounts of nuclear energy via the numerous atomic reactions constantly occurring in his body. That and his mental capacity to process both fission and fusion, allow him to harness the energy emitting from his either his own body or any near source of energy that's near.
		- **Flight:** Firestorm has so far seen to have at least two methods to achieve flight. The first and most common is when he uses fires nuclear blasts downward at a consistent rate, thereby generating enough force to defy gravity and allow for stable propulsion and gliding. This flight style is his preferred and most practiced choice. The second method is unclear, as he is shown to be able to fly at impressive speeds without the need of his blasts. How he achieved this skill or how he even does it is unclear. Also, Firestorm is able to cause an explosion by colliding with an object or surface, allowing him to perform feats such as blowing up nearby vehicles or bursting through a wall.
		- **Matter transmutation:** Firestorm can manipulate matter at an atomic level and arrange its subatomic structure into a different substance all together.
		- **Nuclear absorption:** Firestorm has shown the ability to not only generate nuclear power, but also contain the energy coming from outside sources by absorbing its output.
		- **Nuclear pyrokinesis:** The amount of energy being processed in his body is often released through his head and hands. He can use his control over the energy to project it willingly in the form of concussive blasts, in the form of fire. These "nuclear blasts" are often shown to be quite powerful and have shown to be able to knock unarmed humans out unconscious and are hot enough to burn through solid structures and even cause harm to meta-humans. Also, Firestorm is able to cause an explosion by colliding with an object or surface, allowing him to perform feats such as blowing up nearby vehicles or bursting through a wall.

### Weaknesses

* **Intense wind:** While Firestorm is on fire, he is extremely vulnerable to sheer wind as exposed by Eobard Thawne.
* **Ionized radiation:** The Firestorm Matrix can be destabilized by bombarding its cellular structure with ionized radiation, temporarily disabling Firestorm's powers and weakening him.
* **Quantum splicer disabling:** The Quantum splicer that allows for Firestorm's two halves to merge was disabled for at least a day by with an EMP-like device, leaving the two halves, Ace Raymond and Ronnie Raymond, without their powers.
* **Intense pain:** When 'Non shot Firestorm with heat Vision, Ronnie and Ace separated automatically, although the arrow only remained in Ronnie's shoulder with no indication that Ace was injured.

## Equipment

* **Firestorm suit:** Ronnie and Ace have started wearing a suit while merged as Firestorm. The suit contains a color scheme for bright yellow and orange and still includes the splicer on the chest. It is unknown at this time where the suit came from or what it is made of, since it only appears when the two are merged.
