PROTOTYPE 001: SCORCHED

Scorched emerges as an ominous figure in New Miami City with tough skin and a literal hot head. Programmed with an attitude of indifference, he navigates the dangers of the city with reckless abandon.

His origins trace back to a classified laboratory where he was created as Prototype 001, an experiment to be developed as the ultimate weapon by a shadow government organization (later revealed as G.E.N. Corp). Prototype 001 and his titanium body were developed in secrecy and darkness, crafting him in solitude. However, when The Phenomenon strikes during his early development, the lab explodes, leaving him as the sole survivor; immune to fire.

Confused and alone in a world he was never created to understand, he wanders the streets of New Miami City. One day on his lone journey, he encounters The Renegades in intense combat with G.E.N. Corp. Invited by Vector to join their squad then given a new name, Scorched joins forces with The Renegades and uses his abilities to turn the tide of battle in their favor.

As he fights alongside his newfound allies, Scorched discovers the true extent of his powers. With the ability to manipulate heat and transform his arm into a plasma cannon, he becomes a force to be reckoned with, unleashing devastating attacks on his opposition. Despite his strengths, Scorched harbors intense dislikes for cold temperatures and places without WiFi, relying on connectivity to stay updated and in communication with his team.

Now, as a member of The Renegades, Scorched stands as a dominant force in a world consumed by mayhem and corruption. With his fiery temperament and impenetrable abilities, he fights tirelessly to protect the innocent and stand against oppression. Although he experiences fulfillment working with The Renegades, Scorched remains haunted by the mystery of his creation, embarking on a seemingly endless journey to discover his true purpose.
