Crucible:Firestorm

Real Name: Lloyd Lamm

Background: Juvenile delinquent Lloyd Lamm discovered he was a parahuman as a teen. He broke out of the Unity City orphanage that was his home and set it on fire, and although he tried to flee, he tripped and was trapped in the flames. He somehow survived without a burn! The Unity League put out the fire before the orphanage could be destroyed and rescued him and the other orphans. The League had no idea that Lloyd had set the fire.

He soon learned that he could not be harmed by flames...in fact, he could make them on his own with no matches. Calling himself Firestorm, he became a terrifying supervillain and fought the Unity League repeatedly as one of their most dangerous foes. Later, he was recruited by Brainwave as one of the Fearsome Five.

Group Affiliation: The Fearsome Five

Powers: Firestorm can generate flames from his body, and maintain precise control over those flames. He can use his flame powers to fly.

Skills: A habitual criminal, Firestorm is very familiar with the Unity City underground.
