Tattoos/piercings: It's a hard task just finding someplace on his body that isn't covered in ink. Tribal tattoos practically clothe his upper torso, which he loves to show off. Piercings-wise, he has his right eyebrow pierced, and each corner of his lower lip.


Appearance: A very intimidating figure, Josh stands tall and has a very well-muscled body. A rather feminine face, with large lavendar-colored eyes surrounded by thick lashes, lush lips, and prominent cheekbones, underlies his ferocity at first glance. A shag of jet black hair sits atop his head, and usually falls forward over his eyes. His skin is a naturally olive color, giving away his hispanic descent, along with his hair and facial structure.

Personality: A very domineering and controlling person, Josh doesn't back down to anyone. Life must be done his way, and there is no other option. Although, he will put on a front of sincerity and kindness to lure women into his life, he does a complete turn around once he has them where he wants them. Generally a hardworking person, he excels at his job, because he loves the sight of destruction- and he does it outside of the law on occasion, as well.

History: Born to a drug addicted mother and continually absent father, Joshua was left to fend for himself more often than not. As a child, he was forced to help pay the bills by his fiending mother by selling drugs after school. He was removed from his parent's custody at the age of eight, when police officers found him selling marijuana on school grounds.

Once taken into the system, he didn't fare much better. No foster family would keep him more than a week, because he didn't get along with other children, and was constantly suspended or expelled from every school he attended.

Then, as he hit puberty, he found out he had the ability to set things on fire with merely a thought. At first, the power was limited to easily flammable objects, like paper or dried leaves. As he grew and learned to control this power better, he found that he could set small animals alight, and then he made a huge mistake.

In his sophomore year of highschool, a bully tested his patience one too many times. In front of a crowd, Josh set the boy himself on fire. He was never charged for it, because no one could prove he'd done it.

After that, paranoid that he would be caught for it evenutally, he fled to the south, finding himself in Texas. There he got into the demolition business, by finding himself an easily moldable female by the name of Justine Lonsdale. Her father handed over the demolition business when he retired, and life was going good.

Until Justine left him, which caught him off gaurd so much so that he was determined to track her down and force her to submit to him. He left the business in the hands of a friend and took off after her, following her from place to place. He lost track of her after a month or so, but word has it that she's now living in New Orleans. Subsequently, that's where Joshua himself has now landed, determined to reclaim what he believes is rightfully his, or die trying.

Strengths: Very skilled at controlling his powers, able to direct it with accurate precision. His physical strength is always handy in a fight, since he usually refrains from using his fire abilities in combat (he learned that lesson the first time around). Very quick on his feet, and a fast thinker, he usually can come up with any lie at the drop of a hat to keep himself out of hot water.

Weaknesses: Usual human weaknesses. Very paranoid, when it comes to dealing with the law. Reckless and defiant, it's caused him to do stints in jail numerous times.

Quirks: He has a very soft spot in his heart somewhere, but he hides it by being big, loud, and calloused. Justine failed to touch it because of her submissive and kind nature, but any woman willing to stand up to him might just earn his respect and love.
