History

Chad Davis served in the U.S. Army before sustaining debilitating injuries. He was offered a second chance when Advanced Idea Mechanics approached him with an offer to restore his body with a gene-controlling process known as Extremis. He accepted the offer and became a human test subject, grateful for the restorative effect it had on his body.

Davis in the Army

Although he was pleased with the new life the Extremis virus had given him, Chad grew increasingly concerned about its side effects and procured a file containing information on himself and other Extremis test subjects, which he took with him to his parents' home town of Rose Hill. Before he could do anything with the file however, the Extremis within him went critical and killed him, incinerating another five innocent bystanders in his vicinity.

Attributes

Powers

Extremis virus: The Extremis virus injected into living tissue results in a wide range of effects within the host organism. The intention of Extremis was to enhance, although the compound was flawed. In all hosts it causes intense pain until it either bonds with the host successfully, or destroys the host in a violent explosion. Even in cases where the Extremis virus has successfully bonded, the host organism may be at risk of the compound becoming unstable and detonating with sufficient force to burn nearby bystanders to dust, and crater solid concrete underfoot.

• Enhanced Agility: The Extremis virus enhances musculature to become more powerful in its motion, granting the host marginally enhanced agility.
• Exothermic Reaction: Hosts of the Extremis virus are able to consciously raise the temperature of parts of their bodies. The effect can be controlled to the extent that it might only scorch skin, or increased to the point where it can cause steel to turn into a molten state.
• Superhuman Strength: The Extremis virus enhances the muscular power of the host considerably. The extent appears to vary within marginal limits, but most have demonstrated the ability to hoist the weight of a human male effortlessly in one hand and hurl such a weight across a room.
• Tissue Regeneration: The Extremis virus imparts incredible restorative capabilities upon the host organism. Superficial wounds close over and heal completely in a matter of seconds, and severed limbs can take minutes to regrow.

Weaknesses

Terminal Extremis infusion.
