Heat Edge
CharacterHeat Edge is a swordsman who began as a B-Class professional of the Hero Association before jumping ship to the Neo Heroes. A webcomic-only figure, he fights with a pair of flaming blades and comes to see the Neo Heroes as the stronger organization.
Appearance
Heat Edge fights with two burning swords in hand and styles his hair into the shape of a flame. Over his clothing he wears a dark breastplate paired with a matching skirt.
Personality
He carries himself with steadiness and self-assurance. Even ringed by enemies he stays level-headed and keeps a clear plan in mind, and his admission that he spent a long stretch struggling toward A-Class speaks to a stubborn, driven streak.
History
Alongside Poison Punch and Locust Man, Heat Edge took on the underlings of Mastiking, a Dragon-level Mysterious Being, atop a rooftop. Cornered during the clash, he lost one sword when a minion bit through it. A squad of Neo Heroes swept in to finish the monsters while Blue personally struck down Mastiking, deeply impressing the onlookers. Afterward Blue handed Heat Edge a replacement blade, and Heat Edge, grateful, declared that the Neo Heroes outclassed the professional heroes in every respect and that he was weighing a switch.
He later did cross over, and as a Neo hero clad in a battle suit he fell under the armor's control. Together with Poison Punch and Locust Man he assaulted Chanbara Man, and when Suiryu tried to intervene nearby, his own battle suit seized command of him as well.
His registration as a B-Class hero marks him as well above an ordinary human. He is a capable swordsman skilled with his weapons, wielding a pair of fire swords, and after joining the Neo Heroes he gained a battle suit that sharply boosted his fighting power.
