Malice

Malice (Otherwise known as Norman Hartz) Is a solitary supervillain in Diegen City. Driven only by a desire to use his powers Malice is something of a wild card.

Personality
Hmmmmm......obsessive, manipulative, sadistic, and cruel I think are the words people use most. As for me I'm just a joy seeker. I love to have a good time, and making other people suffer is always a great time.

Power Description
I don't have to shout it out or anything. I simply draw on the peoples hatred and/or fear to create fire. I can of course manipulate that fire at will, though this does not extend beyond the fire I create. Of course when everyone gets evacuated it makes it harder to use my power. The farther away a source of fear or hatred is the less I can draw form it. I'd say you need to be within a standard city block of me for me to draw out the full effect of your hatred or fear. On the other hand those superheros are pretty good at providing plenty of hate towards me in the people's place

Backstory
Hmmmm.....Not much to say. I was one of the later experiments in in giving people pyrokenesis. The team was working with another group that was working on some kind of conversion for emotions into energy. There were several experiments with things like water, wind, and obviously fire. All the tests were broken into two catagories: negative and positive. They tested negative fire on me and some other guy got positive fire. Unsurprisingly the most successful emotions for negative fire were fear and hatred, specifically other people's fear and hatred, hatred more than fear obviously. While hatred is pretty obvious, with fear its probably because its in human nature to act with hostility to the things that scare us. Albeit those reactions aren't always violent more often than not that hostility is in the form of avoidance. At least that was the old man's theory. Before I burned him alive. Before that I was just a schmo, I moved here for the experiment. They promised to pay me well, and they did. Believe it or not I was a delivery man for brown box shipping ltd. But nowadays I work for the local postal service. Tell anyone that and I'll burn you alive.

Trivia
Contrary to popular belief, the faceclaim for this character is NOT Skelator. It is in fact an image taken from the Real Time Strategy game: "Warlords Battlecry." In that game the "Heroes" can choose from several professions, this image is used to illustrate the profession pyromancer and was choosen as Malice's faceclaim because it's an actual pyromancer. As opposed to me just saying it's a pyromancer.

Fun Fact: Norm ordered his cutlass on Ebay.
