Banero
CharacterBanero is a C-Class criminal and habitual arsonist who wages his crimes with molotov cocktails. A former acrobatic barista, he pours that dexterity into hurling firebombs, and his masked face glows and twists into the grinning pepper emblem stitched across his hoodie.
Appearance
Banero is a tall young man with dark hair, a rounded face, and a pair of oversized canine teeth. He sports fingerless gloves and a heavy down jacket layered over a red hooded sweatshirt, the hood bearing a leering jack-o-lantern pepper that conceals his entire face. When he fights, his features light up and warp until they mirror that grinning pepper crest.
Personality
Fire is an obsession for Banero, a pyromaniac with a long record of arson and a habit of carrying concealed weapons. That fixation makes him reckless, bold enough to take on the entire twenty-strong Blizzard Group single-handedly.
History
Once a skilled acrobatic barista, Banero puts that agility to use flinging molotovs wherever he pleases. His downfall comes when twenty members of the Blizzard Group spot him on a busy street and box him into a back alley, demanding he give himself up. After a brief exchange he attacks, but the group overwhelms him almost instantly and beats him unconscious, then falls to bickering over how to divide the credit.
