Background:
Brian Joo, came to this world 24 years ago in a car in New York during a traffic jam. Born in the city he wasn't brought up there as his parents were part of a moving circus. They traveled from city to city, performing, both his parents being acrobats. Brian loved the circus, it was always crazy and fun, meeting people from all over the country. Brian always had been a curious and rather mischievous kid, him and his two year older brother Darren playing pranks on everyone and basically being a pair of naughty kids, his brother dragging him into everything and often doing it so that Brian was the one to blame and not him. Brian didn't care as he gave as good as he got and the older they became the more they began to try and play the worst pranks on each other involving as many people as they could.
Brian didn't found out about his powers until he was eleven, where he sat hidden behind a trailer, having stolen a cigarette from his father, curious what it was like and trying it out. As he played with the lighter, flicking the fire on and off his hand suddenly caught fire. He freaked out naturally, screaming and waving his hand around in shock but the flame disappeared and after a minute of panicking on his own he realized that, it didn't even hurt. Shocked at first it took him only ten minutes to find it incredibly cool and awesome, something to prank his brother with. It was because of that prank where he pretended to be on fire around his brother, flames dancing on both his hands that his parents found out about his powers too as his brother had been beyond hysterics because of this prank. He admitted what he could do, hesitant at first to tell them, scared of what they might think but he worried for nothing as his parents, both circus freaks from the start found it rather cool. Strange and unusual but cool. He wasn't the only one with powers as that night his brother also admitted having a power, being able to bend in every angle possible. Because of them both having powers they became even closer, trying to outdo each other and giving each other nicknames resembling their powers.
When Brian was fifteen years old, in control of his power he began to perform in the circus using that power, he loved performing and using his powers in the public under the excuse it was all a fake, the magic that was the circus as people didn't searched anything behind it anyways. But he didn't perform for long as the owner of the circus past away, leaving all of them with a lot of debt they had no idea they had. With it all paid they were completely bankrupt and had no choice but to give up the circus.
The Joo family suffered from it big time, as it was all they knew and loved. They decided to move back to New York where they went back to ordinary people. Only not. Brian could not fit in school, people knowing about his background and bullying him for it. Not only that but he also just hated school, he wasn't stupid or a bad learner he just didn't like it. He began to play pranks again only on teachers and students this time, the pranks getting worse and worse each time as he tried to surpass himself to a point where he got expelled. He barely finished high school and didn't even bother with college, immediately going to work.
Him and his brother were still close, always partying and hanging out but still there was a void inside of them they couldn't fill up until one day his brother Darren came with the idea of starting a bar. They both loved partying and they loved the circus so why not mix it up? They did, started a bar called Freakshow that was circus themed (imagine the dark circus style of cirque). Within two years they had paid the debts they had made by starting this bar and were both living rather comfortably as the bar was doing great, the weird design, music, people who worked there with occasionally a show of acrobats a great hit in New York city.
Brian is a crazy guy, he loves to pull pranks on his friends, tell jokes and act like a fool. He also thinks he is hilarious and the coolest guy around when really he is just an idiot. He likes to film himself whilst dancing or ask other people to do it and take pictures of himself. Brian is full of energy, a flirt and likes to have a good time. Oh and he loves eating a bit too much.
To come back on his power Brian cannot create fire, which is why he always carries a zippo with him just in case (also because he likes to play around with the flames). He needs to have a source to get fire from, often by lighting his own hands or using candles. He can how ever control it that being any sort of fire, on his hands or surrounding him.
