Origins

Dr. Corey Booker was born with physical limitations, but not aspirational ones. He is a human dwarf, but went on to achieve his PhD in Astrophysics specializing in solar research. His work became highly regarded and he was eventually recruited to NexU.S. labs to develop plasma infusion technology and design the next generation of metahumans.

Unfortunately, that program's objective went awry and Dr. Booker became the first human accidentally mutated into living plasma - a walking, talking dwarf star.

Working quickly to help him, and their program, NexU.S. developed a magnetic containment suit that helped him channel and funnel the nuclear energy his body now emits at a constant level. The suit is highly resistance to punctures, rents and tears. There are certain points where the gravimetric field can be stretched and his nuclear energy flows through these. The obvious points of field stretch are his hands and eyes, but the seams in the suit allow for limited spherical discharges of coronal energy for defense purposes.

Currently

Currently, having completed some self-experimentation and careful monitoring by NexU.S. labs, Dwarf Star has joined NexU.S. Blue under Watch Leader Exarch, but has made it known he would be available for NexU.S. Black team.

He continues to work in the astrophysics field but is maintaining a very low and introverted profile due to the fact his current appearance no longer matches his public biographies and vitae. He only consults by voice and uses data transfers to mark the progress and results of his scientific endeavors. At this time he is considering hiring someone to be his 'public contact' for in-person meetings. An agent of sorts who fields requests and can moderate voice meetings.

Further Information

Dwarf Star's containment unit prevents nearby beings from being exposed to solar radiation, thus helping him maintain his own physical and mental cohesion when interacting with others.

The gravimetric fields allow him to create a variety of solar flaring events. Limited, short term pulses that create a feedback loop from his own fissionable source to the target and back. Two different controlled flares can be used against either a single target or multiple targets. His lenses allow him to focus the fission into a tightly controlled burn that will melt the defenses and atomic structures of anything within line of sight.

The vents on the armor give him a gravimetric point to create solar winds and flight. Additionally, these can maintain and expulse defensive spheres that melt attacks or fling opponents away.
