(Plasma is a super-heated stated of matter such as exists in the atmosphere of stars.)  The Human Torch can generate shapes composed of fire from any point on his body. (He usually employs his hands to "sculpt" the flames.) He can form fire into long streams, spheres, or even more complex shapes like letters in skywriting. These flames-objects will only remain their shapes as long as he concentrates upon them. The objects will only burn about 3 minutes before expiring unless the Torch continues to infuse them with energy. The temperature of these fiery projections is generally around 2,800 F (near the melting point of iron).The Human Torch's plasma has a high hydrogen content, and is surrounded by an exuded cloud of mono-atomic hydrogen atoms. This hot cloud provides sufficient positive buoyancy for him to float. With mental stimulation of his flame, he can provide enough lift to carry 180 pounds. By forming a jet from his feet, directed behind him, he can achieve speeds up to at least 140 miles per hour.The Human Torch has the ability to mentally control the ambient heat energy within his immediate environment, even when he himself is not aflame. He can reduce objects' temperatures (if they are in a normal range for existing on Earth's surface) to about 30 F, raise them to several hundred degrees, or extinguish open flames. His radius of influence is about 80 feet. The heat energy he takes from the environment is absorbed into his own body. If he takes in a critical amount while he is not aflame, he will become aflame. There are unknown limits to the amount of flame he can absorb into his own body harmlessly while he is himself aflame.[Extras: Elemental Movement (Fire - grants Flight), Shape Element, Elemental Absorption; Power Stunts: Energy Blast (Lethal), Create Element, Destroy Element Source: Cosmic Radiation; Cost: 5pp.]Energy Field (Fire) +10:The Human Torch can choose to engulf himself in flames, causing harm to any of those who touch him.  He can also “go Nova” releasing all his stored energy in one concussive blast.[Extras: Selective, Nova* (see below for details); Source: Cosmic Radiation; Cost: 4pp.]CharacteristicsReal Name: Jonathan (“Johnny”) StormHeight: 5’10”Weight: 170 lbs.Eye Color: Blue.Hair Color: Blond.First Appearance: Fantastic Four #1PersonalityThe Human Torch is a hothead in every sense of the word. He’s often cocky and somewhat arrogant, and likes playing practical jokes on people.HistorySee <a href="http://www.marveldirectory.com/individuals/h/humantorchii.htm" target="_blank">The Marvel Directory</a> for a detailed history of Havok.*Extra - Nova: By “going Nova” the Torch can release all of his body's stored energy in one intense, omni-directional "nova-burst," which can reach about 1,000,000 F, and which is similar to the heat-pulse of a nuclear warhead detonation. This is an area attack, centered on you, that affects all targets within (Energy Field rank X 75 feet). Targets make a reflex save (DC 10 + Energy Field rank) to avoid taking damage. If failed, the Nova blast acts as a Lethal attack with a damage bonus equal to twice your power rank in Energy Field. After this act, the user immediately becomes exhausted and is unable to use any powers without at least 12 hours of rest. This attack can only be done once a month and lowers the users Energy Field rank by 1 per use.</blockquote>
