Heatstroke

Origin

The redheaded beauty named Joanne and taking up the masked title of Heatstroke is a bit of a mystery. It is known that she and her fellow member Coldsnap of the mercenary group Masters of Disaster were at onetime lovers and continued to have a love connection. Apparently Coldsnap experimented on their genetic makeup and changed them, giving Joanne the meta-human powers over heat and fire around her. However Joanne could not control her own body temperature, and since Coldsnap had given himself cold based abilities neither could touch each other anymore. In hopes to gather enough wealth to be able to somehow reverse their conditions or at least allow them to control them better they took on the identity's of Heatstroke and Coldsnap. Selling themselves as mercenaries for hire they only joined the Masters of Disaster in order to gain enough money to find a cure and return to being lovers once more.

Powers

The fiery red headed Heatstroke has been genetically altered and now has the ability to raise the temperature around her and create extremely high levels of heat. Now her own natural body heat is considerably high, always causing small enclosed spaces to feel quite warm. Due to her high body temperature which she generates she is unable to physically touch her former lover Coldsnap. She is also extremely sensitive to cold temperatures and can be seriously injured by such an attack. This particular control over heat allows her to also send fiery blast from her hands, create thermal uplifts which can carry and propel her in the air and fly, a usual tactic of hers is to do aerial attacks.
