**Mutation**

**Fire Manipulation:**
Arturo has the pyrokenetic ability to control fire. Unlike most elements, he has the unique gift to generate it; though he can also control and enhance flames nearby. He draws this power from the sun and other solar objects, such as comets, as well as the fiery core of the planet. He can possibly draw power from volcanic energy and lightning as well. Arturo uses his chi backed by physical movements as a source to produce fire and it's subsets; which in a way could be described as a martial art in itself.

* **Heat Manipulation:**

Arturo has the ability to control heat. Using this technique, he can heat liquids, heat metal until it glows red, or melt ice, or in reverse, cool things down, as well as many other things.
* **Lightning Manipulation:**

Arturo is able to generate and manipulate lightning by separating his positive and negative energies; produce and guide a bolt of lightning from his fingertips. It requires him to have peace of mind and a complete absence of emotion.
* **Lightning Redirection:**

He is also able to absorb lightning into his body as energy and release it in a more desirable direction.
* **Energy Reading:**

Arturo is capable of using fire to sense chi paths and interpret many types of energy. He uses this technique to ascertain the cause of many types of physical, mental and supernatural wounds or infliction's in a body.
* **Combustion:**

This ability allows Arturo to ignite objects with his mind instead of his traditional physical methods. He can concentrate the energy through the chi points located in his hands or forehead to project a ray of heat which detonates with great force, producing situated explosions with a great deal of precision. This technique is extremely effective and very destructive, capable of use at close and long-range; it can completely disintegrate hill-sized boulders and instantaneously evaporate large bodies of water with ease.

**Enhanced Condition:**
Arturo's mutation caused the myofibrils in his muscles to greatly increase resulting in amplified strength. The average human can press 70% of their body weight, however due to Arturo's mutation he can press over 100 times his body weight.
Because of Arturo's strength it also results in him being very fast. He can outrun cars on freeways and even manage to dodge quick projectiles.
Arturo's mutation enhanced his stamina far beyond an average humans. He can run for hours on end without getting tired from the physical strain.
Arturo's collagen fibers in his skin have enormous tensile strength thanks to his mutation. He is highly resistance to piercing attacks, meaning he is unaffected by knifes, swords, ect. Even bullets just leave a mild wound. Being hit by large amounts of blunt force can damage him extensively but not fatally.

**Skills & Abilities**

**Jet Propulsion:**
Arturo is able to conjure huge amounts of flames to propel himself at high speeds on the ground or through the air. With enough power the technique can be used for sustained levitation and flight.

* **Fire-Stepping:**

A more precise form of jet propulsion, by using small bursts of flames beneath his feet, Arturo can quickly scale any obstacle in his way.

**Flame Redirection:**
Arturo is capable of changing the course of an incoming fire attack and redirecting it back at the attacker or to any desired location using a fluid motion.
**Blocking:**
Arturo can defuse and extinguish an oncoming fire attack from another opponent by using a swift kick, jab, or any other defensive maneuver, allowing him to stop attacks.
**Blowtorch:**
Arturo is able to create a small pressurized output of fire from his fingertips resulting in a blowtorch like action. The flame is able to melt and cut through metals; most useful to cut metal chains or locks.
**Skilled Combatant:**
Arturo has practiced the Northern Shaolin style of kung fu. Aspects of his combat style can be seen through emphasis on highly technical kicking strikes, fundamentally strong movements, and the usage of swift, direct maneuvers. Northern Shaolin is an external style that he uses to exert long, aggressive techniques that explode and drive through his opponents.
**Acrobatics:**
Arturo is extremely agile and resilient, exhibited as he is able to run up walls and perform mid-air twirls. He is able to perform various acrobatic stunts while taking down his targets as well. He can effectively maneuver and fight on par with opponents much stronger than him as well. His reflexes are great enough that he can even subdue multiple targets by himself.

**Strengths**

**Equator:**
Arturo's power is at its maximum potential nearest to the equator. This effect increases significantly during the summer.
**Warm climate:**
Arturo is much stronger and controlled whenever he can draw energy from heat. The climate conditions of a battleground can turn the tides of the fight in his favor, if the weather is hot enough.

**Weaknesses**

**Cold Temperatures:**
Cold temperatures reduce or even completely negate Arturo's abilities. However, Arturo can gain control and use a fire technique to stay warm and keep using his abilities.
**Full Moon:**
A full moon weakens Arturo's abilities to some degree.
**Lack Of Defense:**
The major combat weakness behind Arturo's abilities is its confrontational nature. Due to its aggressiveness and pursuit of continuous assault, it lacks basic defensive techniques, which can sometimes leave him considerably vulnerable to enemy counterattacks.
**Lack Of Energy:**
Arturo's power consumes a vast amount of energy leaving him at a considerable disadvantage in a prolonged battle. However at times he has shown the ability to sustain attacks for long periods.
**Circumstances:**
Arturo's power may decrease in any situation which might extinguish his flames, such as being underwater or caught in the rain.
**Solar Eclipse:**
Arturo's connection to the sun results in a lessening of strength during the night and a complete loss of his fire abilities during a solar eclipse.
