APPEARANCE AND PERSONALITY
Appearance:
Cody has a very tanned, toned look to his body. He tries to remain relatively fit but doesn't overdo it to the point that he becomes nothing but muscle. His eyes are deep gold in color, and his hair is black. Across his body are a bunch of cracks that have formed into scars over time, but they have a weird clear-white colorization to them that make them quite easy to spot compared to his more tanned skin-tone.
Due to his scars, Cody wraps his body up in bandages in an attempt to keep this weird look hidden. Of course he leaves a space in the bandages for his mouth and eyes to ensure that he can keep his senses about him.
For his clothing, he typically wears a black zip-up hoodie with no undershirt as he finds the bandages to be enough. He wears black pants with black combat boots completing a relatively mute color palette that he enjoys since he hates being in the spotlight.
POSITIVE
✔ Sympathetic: Cody does his best to understand those who have gone through a rough situation. He does not like beating up people who are down on their luck already and may be swayed to not act against those who he feels don't deserve more bad in their life.
✔ Cares for Children: Cody has a great distaste for those who treat children, or minors in general, poorly. This mostly extends to people in their lower teens and younger, but even those in their upper teens can be given a pass if they seem misguided at best. He doesn't forgive anyone, even those he might consider a friend, if they act out against young ones.
✔ Hardworking: Knowing that hard work beats out being lazy, Cody desires to push himself to be the best him that he can be when he doesn't need to cool down for his Quirk. While it may be misguided into where he puts this effort, it is impossible to say that he doesn't go all out where possible
NEGATIVE
✖ Vindictive: Cody is known to be quite overzealous in his desire to get revenge on those he feels wronged him. Smaller slights can be overlooked but if he feels betrayed or misled, he is quick to try and bite back against the person, even if they might not have meant to betray him.
✖ Malicious: If Cody gets a hold of someone who doesn't get a pass from his anger, he can be quite malicious and evil towards them. He is not beneath resorting to mindless torture and acts of violence to people even if he doesn't want anything out of them himself.
✖ Small Fuse: It is very easy to set Cody off, as his upper limit of what he can tolerate has been broken quite a while ago. People who even unintentionally bring up things he hates are quick to learn that he is the yelling type. This might not lead to him trying to kill, but he wont hesitate to talk someones ear off about it.

Personality:
For the average person, Cody has a very laid back and uncaring personality. He likes to reserve most of his effort for actual work rather than talking to others leading him to be quite aloof in most situations. When it comes to children, typically around or under the age of 15, Cody tries to be quite kind and loving as he sees them as poor little souls who haven't quite gotten into the world just yet.
If someone is his friend he might have a change of mood, talking more openly and happily to them as if they are on equal terms even if one of them may be above the other. He doesn't see everyday people as too much of a hassle and doesn't hold much personal malice towards anyone. He just finds that the deeper he gets to know most people, the more he hates them. As such it can be easy to get on his bad side.
Should someone get on Cody's bad side and they fall victim to him, it is rare that he will try to kill them right away. Instead, he savours his time with them, trying to do whatever he can to break them and make them feel a level of pain he finds sufficient for whatever they did to upset him. This is often exaggerated as he wants to eventually kill them.

HISTORY
Born in the United States, Cody lived a fairly cozy life for the fair majority of it all. By the age of six he manifested his quirk which didn't really do too much to sway his family's opinions of him. Outwardly, nothing really happened so it was hard for them to even notice what was going on. Cody could tell almost immediately that things were going on inside of his body, though, as he felt his insides begin to burn hotter than anything he felt before. As bad as that could sound, it wasn't exactly an unpleasant feeling. The flaming heat inside of his chest only helped to remind him that he was different from others and that it made him special to some degree.
The first winter came after his quirk awakened inside of him, which led to him noticing the downside of his power. Going outside in the cold would quickly shut down his body, with the heat burning inside of him dimming until it was snuffed causing him to become nothing more than a motionless statue. His peers and family would rescue him, but it marked a terrible aspect of his life that he would never be able to live down.
The years passed by, and Cody learned more parts of his quirk that he never even expected to see. With a buildup of the heat in his body, he could propel a black smoke out of his mouth that could ignite after he released enough of it into the air. As he used this power more and more, however, his body started to break apart leaving deep cracks in his flesh. These didn't bleed but instead glowed as he prepared to fire this breath from out of his body. And with time the cracks also healed over into clear-white scars that still glowed when firing his breath. It freaked him out to a degree, so he would start to wrap his body up with bandages every day making an attempt to hide what was showing on his body. Many people assumed he was just in an accident, but he of course knew it had everything to do with his quirk.
More years passed and while Cody was trying to live a normal life, he started to go somewhat mad with power. His technique was flawed but powerful. While his parents were perfectly fine people, noticing his close friends around him get hurt by their family for various reasons sent Cody into a rage, feeling like he himself was slighted by their actions. He wanted to get back at them in any way he could.
Seeing as he had the power and Quirk to back it up, Cody went beyond a point that he couldn't turn back from, and he began to senselessly torture those he felt were out of line in his community. Slowly but surely, his brain snapped and he started to love it. Every bit of torture he dished out upon those in his circle filled him with joy but this couldn't last forever.
Beyond a point it was far too much for even those he considered friends. TheyC turned his actions over to the local police. This was an extreme slight by his books, and the rage it fueled him with led to him pushing over the edge and going as far as to kill the only friends who were just trying to protect him from going too far. Of course they were far too late to do this, and his mind was beyond saving.
He regretted his actions, realizing he killed people who really didn't deserve it... he just, snaps when he felt betrayed like this. He couldn't control himself but still, it felt horrible. And he knew he couldn't stick around with the Police already having known of his actions.
Sticking around in America wasn't good enough, either, he had to ditch the country. He took only the bare essentials with himself as he fled the country, stowing away on a freighter ship to England. It was across the waters but also meant he didn't have to push himself to learn another language right away, a simple solution as he didn't have any others under his belt.
Cody spent the next few years, until he was 23, committing petty crimes and studying up on foreign places. For a while he thought about hiding away in Russia next, or even heading back overseas and trying to get into South America. But of all of the options he went through his eyes were drawn to Japan. It definitely wasn't the best idea but the sounds of opportunity there just brought him in.
For the next year, he focused in on learning Japanese, and stowed away once again to find his way to Japan. He didn't even really have a name anymore, and he had no identification on him. Living here normally wasn't an option... but he could just try to mingle himself into the underground of this place. It was the best plan he had, and with all of the time he had to soak in what he did in America he knew, to some degree, he loved the thrill of fighting and killing. All that mattered was how he was going to go about doing it here and who he would find himself allied with.
Deciding to go by the name 'Meltdown' after his Quirk, Cody set off into Japan with the desire to find something, or someone, to get by with. Now all he had to do was find himself some 'work'.
