Pyre: A theocratic vigilante organization that performs mercenary work on the side. Created by a fanbase of psuedo vigilantes, the organization was formed a year ago through the vigilante actions of the most famous members of its organization, the Sparks. Each Spark is someone that is perceived as being a supernatural messenger of good fortune, praised and honored like a hero of prophetic legend, the Sparks of Pyre are essentially considered its legendary heroes or saviors. Juan, is one of these Sparks.
The Pyre Organization itself is led by the Sparks. Juan, and several other members make up the heads of this organization. Despite being a small group of a little over a thousand, the organization itself has a diverse number of mutants, cybernetic individuals, humans, and even a small number of Omen. In the last year since its official creation it has been launching a campaign in attacking gangs that have been harassing communities and making examples out of those gangs in a variety of ways.
Personality
Gus as he tells most prefer to refer to him as, is one of the most casual people you will find despite being a member of a rumored theocratic group. To summarize him in one word, Gus is enigmatic. You'd never guess from his behavior that he's the sort of person that has actually been through a lot- but then again in a place like Hell City, who hasn't at one point or another? An odd ball in the purest sense that he's rather kind and friendly for someone who used to be related to one of the worst villains in Hell City's history- Juan is quite the kind fellow, classic jokester, and jovial tease. His tendencies of friendliness and motives to remain polite and reserved are however ways to keep himself in check.

Occupation: Private Investigator / Mercenary
Goals: Make Pyre become a recognized force; Eliminate the stains in Hell City
Juan was born in District 66. The District that knew Gaul, his father. Gaul's real name was Antonio Aengus. And like any Aengus, Antony had built his name up through grit and determination. Born in one of the roughest Districts in Hell City where he was trapped there for years with his siblings till his twenties, where he became the only one that survived the horrors in District 12, Gaul made it out of District 12 and into a more stable District that feared the influence of the great Godfather Lucifer, where he'd spend for several years before finally escaping Hell City with the help of some close friends he made along his journeys and ordeals.
Marrying into a family of prestige in another country, Antonio never intended on going back to Hell City- what drove him to return was him finding out about the death of one of the people that had helped him leave the cursed little sovereign state in the first place. Murdered mysteriously with no clues as to what or how a few years after he was beginning to settle into his new life, Juan's father felt the pull, a calling to return to his cursed, bloodstained home- and his wife, Mariette, refused to allow him to go alone; knowing or fearing he may never come back.
Long story short, Juan's birth was a accident, but a happy one. The intent had never been to have children in this forsaken place but sometimes...things just happen and Antonio, after spending several failed months hunting a group of killers that kept alluding both he and his allies efforts, he was invigored in establishing a safe life for his newborn son. And so he did what any parent desperate for the security of their child's future would do- he made changes to his life, and did so by force.
Gaul, became a feared name in District 66. Antonio picked the District for the sheer fact he had more allies in the area, less so than the actual safety it provided. For his wife and his son, he desired their safety, but like him, Mariette was stubborn as she was honor bound by her own code- and often times, for most of the time- Juan was raised by a trusted hand for his few years of infancy. His father only took a real interest in his upbringing when his mother was killed, and even then- he only really began taking an interest in Juan's upbringing when a project that was supposedly capable of figuring out Omen's and their abilities cropped up.
At the young age of 8, Juan would be put in this program to help him develop his abilities. Antonio always meant well for his son, but his methods in achieving that were often tinted grey at best. And putting him in the program would be the catalyst that would lead to his son's own life getting flipped upside down. Spending two years conducting tests, Juan's abilities began to finally show sign when he was about to turn ten. It finally made itself appear when the scientists conducting the experiment managed to convince Antonio to allow them to put his son in faked danger. In that experiment, Juan's powers manifested in a way that was so eye catching, Antonio himself removed him from the projects immediately when it became obvious that what they had originally thought had been babbles of a child, muttering nonsense, had actually been hints towards his unique powers of detecting emotion.
Life for the next three years, from ten to thirteen, would be a headache for Juan. By the time he was twelve he'd moved around District 66 more than seven times, and each time he began seeing less and less of his father. It put a wedge in their relationship, and made things difficult for them to connect. So when the day came that Juan's father was killed and the news reports made it known that Gaul had been murdered when he was just thirteen, Juan had no idea how to feel. All he felt was cold. And it only got worse when the attention turned on him.
After Gaul died, life for Juan would be a mess. For all the lack of appearances Antonio had made, it was due to him playing up the fear factor as Gaul in keeping his family safe and helping his allies secure control over the District. When he died, that tenuous hold left with him and Juan's life for the remainder of that year, was filled with several attempts at being kidnapped. Had it not been for his father's friends looking out for him, Juan's life would have been very different. So in an effort not to lean on others, he was given training to be able to handle himself. Sheltered but not dull or naïve, he dedicated himself to becoming someone that would be capable of handling himself in the streets. From thirteen to eighteen, he worked hard, and then began working to figure out who was behind his father's murder. It carried him out of District 66, and across other Districts for the next two years. During his journeys Juan tested out his powers through acts of vigilantism. Acts that would make him become the Spark of Honor.
Power: Negativity Evolution
Juan has the power to gain strength and evolve from conflict, negative emotions, or violence. His power is at its weakest when he is the only source, but it is at its strongest when he uses his environment to fuel it.
With his power Juan can read the negative emotions of individuals through the aura they radiate. With his empath ability he is particularly skilled in detecting hostile intent directed towards him.
Divisions Of Power
War Empowerment: Allows Juan to evolve physically whenever he is in hostile area. This activates whether he is conscious of the hostility or not
Aura Reading: Grants Juan the power to read / sense the negative emotions of others, their dislikes, etc. Through this he can charge up.
Evolution: Activates either automatically when he is not actively using it or can be activated willingly and is deactivated through willpower. Juan can alter the kind of evolution he undergoes granting him different capabilities. Otherwise he automatically defaults to a more defensive physical state naturally and this will not change unless he makes it.
Limits
- Juan gains strength and the ability to evolve himself through negativity; ranging from negative emotions, to violence, danger, threats, etc.
- Juan's aura sensory ability is always active, he can always see aura's on living beings.
- Ironic twist is his power gives him a sort of strange glow that makes him physically maintain a slightly younger appearance.
- His power automatically reacts to any threats whether he is conscious of it or not, however it only provides him a slightly better defense and does not make him immune to harm. Just harder to kill.
- Juan's evolutionary abilities do not allow him the power of regeneration. They simply increase his healing factor or enhance his durability in different ways, which exerts more of his energy and makes him more likely to retreat due to fatigue.
- Juan's power to evolve can negatively affect him, by altering his own emotions and putting him a fanatic state of aggression. Making him a liability
- Due to the nature of his power's effect on him, Juan is less likely to utilize his evolutionary states for long periods of time as it requires a powerful level of self-control not to give into his darker urges. As a result he has only used the full potential of his power twice: Once when he was a child when his powers were discovered, a second time when he found his father's direct killer and slaughtered him.
Strengths
- Emotional Intelligence: Juan is very self-aware of how he acts and is more observant when it comes to dealing with people. He has learned to use his power to pick up on things on a person, even without it, he has gotten quite good at reading scenarios and maneuvering them.
- Marksmanship: While not a master, Juan has learned a decent amount about guns. He is an excellent mid-range shot. And relies more on firearms than diving into the greater applications of his power.
- Integrity: Gus has a set of rules he does his absolute best to never break. His integrity and sticking to a flexible but strict honor code, is what makes him the Spark of Honor.
- Quick Thinking: Juan is skilled in thinking under pressure and on his feet. A lot of that has to do with the various dangerous scenarios he put himself into back when he was a wanted trophy of science.
- Years of combat training and real life experience has put him ahead.
Weaknesses
- Hesitancy: Despite his power making him hard to kill, Juan has placed quite a bit of restraint on himself when it comes to using his powers. This is due to his own fear of his power`s raw potential for harm.
- FRENZY: Juans power has the negative impact of emotionally inciting him into a deeply disturbed and hard to control state of aggression if he uses his power of Evolution for an exceptional period of time. This state is why he plays it safe.
- Conviction: Despite his amicable approach, Juan is someone who would rather see your actions speak for you than your words, and as a result does not trust that many people until he's personally evaluated the kind of person you are. This applies to even the friends of friends, where not even someone he likes vouching for you will matter to him in any shape or form.
Fighting Style
Despite living a somewhat sheltered life in his childhood, Juan has spent most of his life learning how to fight. His father was his first instructor then later he gained new ones in the form of those he interacted with on the battlefield or the family friend willing to give him the time. In combat Juan prefers to keep himself at a range from his opponents, but ultimately has no real problem facing anyone in close-quarters. His preferred weapons of combat are usually his pistol, or a weapon he calls Saber, which has the capability of doubling as a combat knife and also a sword.
Gear
- Saber: A compact weapon that was designed specifically for Juan.
- K47: Is a double-barreled pistol that Juan had remodified and designed for his use. It can hold a total of two clips and hold twenty four rounds.
Relationships
Gaul: Gaul was a renown 'criminal' in District 66 and even outside of it. As Gaul, Antonio was well known for making an example out of his enemies. And for a long time his identity went unknown for the duration of Juan's ignorance to his father's outings. The only reason Juan knew his father was Gaul was because he had been unmasked when his body was discovered in a secluded, torn up building under a pile of rubble, where three teenagers were found near his body, alive.
Westley: Is the guardian that oversaw most of Juan's life and is a close family friend.
Camilo Nilsen: Is the Spark of Justice, and one of the Sparks of Pyre. He is a good friend of Juan's even if the two of them often clash.
Scar Histories
On Back, Across right shoulder: Juan gained this scar from trying to use the philosophy of 'might makes right', during one of his ventures outside of District 66. Confronting a group of raiders that had been known for bullying an area in District 43, he attempted to fight the leader of the Bloody Pearls. Inexperienced, at the age of twnety he thought he was invincible, and learned how wrong he was in the fight when the Captain of the Bloody Pearls, pierced through his armored skin and sank a bladed edge into his back when he made a cocky and miscalculated move.
Above left Eyebrow: Juan gained this scar from a training session with Westley. Due to cockiness on his part.
Left Hand: A shallow scar, barely visible in the light. Achieved this through a street match between himself and a fighter named Guerilla.
