Powers
Radiation absorption: Shiro's mutant powers enable him to absorb solar and other radiation to generate the process of ionized matter through a mentally-triggered unknown biochemical process so that it is converted to plasma. He can sheath his body in flame. Solar shielding psi-field: He is protected from the heat and radiation he emits by a short-range psionic force field which automatically comes into being whenever there is air friction and also prevents excessive amounts of light from the plasma from reaching his eyes so as to blind or damage them. However, it is speculated that he can generate power in excess of his natural protection.
 * Flight: He can use his powers to create super-heated air currents which push him forward through the air, enabling him to fly. Sometimes, this super-heated air is visible as a trail of flame behind Shiro. The upper limit of the speed Shiro can achieve in flight is not yet known, although it is known to be greater than 150 miles per hour.
 * Plasma blasts: He has the ability to project the flames he generates as powerful blasts of energy.
 * Plasma emanation: Shiro can generate plasma temperatures which match those that can be generated by the Human Torch, reaching about 1,000,000 degrees Fahrenheit at maximum level. He can also use his power in a massive blast, similar to the Human Torch's "nova burst". However, Shiro has much more control over the area of effect, enough to where one person may feel like they have been sun-bathing all day to total incineration of another target.
 * Heat signature sense: He has the ability to sense beings by the heat signatures they give off.
 * Plasma shield: He has the ability to manipulate the plasma around him to form an aura that can melt incoming bullets or stave off other attacks.
