Personal Style: Appropriately tomboyish with the prevalence of t-shirts, shorts, and even jeans. But when wearing formal attire or even a dress, Ardere is completely unrecognizable. Strangely enough, she has a complete aversion to long sleeves and long pants, even in the coldest weather. Not unless she was directly told to wear them, Adere will not wear them by choice. The only exception to wearing thicker clothing was to put on the appearance of conformality and heed her parents' words. Color-wise, she gravitates towards neutral or dark tones in monotone patterns. Very rarely she would wear something more exciting than a polo shirt with a breast pocket.
She enjoys covering her face with a mask she made at home for a Halloween costume. While rumors would suggest she loathes her own image, Adere likes to wear it to scare people. She enjoys October 31st because of it.

Personality: To her few friends, Adere is hospitable, a dependable auditor, and diligent at work. To her numerous detractors, one crazy weirdo - an isolationist troll. She doesn't spend the effort to pretend to be nice, she often ignores and keeps silent about the people around her but inside her mind, her thoughts are rampant and diverse with a thousand opinions forming from her observations. Instead of parties and fashion, Ardere sticks to her books while secretly loathing her absence to exciting social gatherings of her peers. Seeking knowledge as a way to compensate for the lack of personal connection. A complete reverse of her usual behavior from 6 years ago.
No longer accustomed to how to vent her anger in healthy manners, Adere stores her rage, her disappointment, and her envy inside of her, building up as time went on. The effects of a breakdown are quite explosive as such a flood of emotional discourse would cause her powers to activate in spontaneous combustion. Amazingly enough, that quick release of fire and flame reset her attitude back to a milquetoast of contentedness.
Privately, she likes to cook food for others to eat. Always joyful to see that her meals put smiles on her family and friends. The potluck during her childhood was one of her favorite memories. Adere eats like a starving glutton when she's hungry. She likes to pretend in her own mind that not gaining excessive weight is her superpower.

How did you discover your powers: Her powers were discovered when her house burned down unexpectedly. Right after her father sends Ardere to her room after ruining her older brother's theatre project, the smell of smoke starts waffling heavily throughout the house. Panicking, Epherem evacuated the house with his family only to realize Ardere was still inside. Before he could go back inside to drag her out of her room, the house was consumed in flames only for Ardere to run out unscathed and without any burn marks on her body or pajamas.
General History: If there was one theme that could describe her life and her family, it was paradoxically unremarkable and fascinating. While having no heritage of mutant or alien heritage that could be considered her ancestors, Ardere's mother is an entrepreneurial career businesswoman with 30 years of experience under her belt while her father is a former Disney artist; though found a new career in Rick and Morty. Boring as it was compared to the superheroes, Ardere nonetheless found the exploits of her parents infinitely more fascinating than the Avengers in their missions.
Never would she consider being one herself at age 14 given her interests in the mundane competitive world of artistry. Her biggest worries lay in the tests she didn't study for, not saving the world from one armageddon after another. Yet, Fate would suggest otherwise as Ardere would discover her powers in the least convenient manner: at home indoors, within her room, surrounded by flammable material, as her power was unleashed in a fit of unrelenting rage and exponential wrath. Being sent to her room was humiliating enough but seeing the furious disappointment in her father's eyes after scoring poorly in math class in the final year of middle school one too many times had led to a fierce shouting match, making her more bitter than she ever felt before.
The collection of manga she has been collecting for the past four years going up in smoke was the first indication of her powers of heat generation being unleashed. Followed by her bed and wooden desk turning black as a small fire erupted and quickly grew to engulf her room as the temperature reached scorching levels. After making her family homeless indefinitely, it was decided for Ardere to attend Avengers Academy. Not an easy decision as she would be well and far away from her home state but since her newfound powers are here to stay, it was seen as necessary in order to learn the skills to keep her heat generation from spiraling out of control.
While the house would be rebuilt, Ardere will live like a college student, going by the comments of her father and brother.
Proposed Arc:- Living in the shadows of her family's legacy and achievements, both good and bad, Ardere is at the point to starts thinking about what she wants and who she should become.
- Find friends, make friends, break out of her shell and socialize.
- Experience something new. Her world is not in books or in maps, it's found out there waiting to be encountered.
Character Quote: "It doesn't matter how much people respect you when they're on fire."
Favorite Song: TimeAnything Else: Sensation and WonderI like Peter parker Spiderman though I feel like he looks too old to be considered a teen.
