His eyes will also glow in the dark due to his inner fires.<br/><br/><strong>General Appearance:</strong>Jonothon’s wardrobe really never changes in color. One can usually find him dressed in all black. While his shirts may change the combat boots and the black leather wrappings covering his missing body parts do not.<br/><br/><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong><span class="bbc_u">Who they are</span></strong></span><br/><br/><strong>Personality:</strong>Due to experiencing the very worst that nature could throw at him, it is no surprise that Jono is a very secluded, closed off, and even harsh man. Within him not only broils a furnace of energy but also a furnace of withdrawn emotion. The bandages wrapped around his body act as a metaphorical wall, hiding his emotions from the people around him. Being a highly intelligent man, Jonothon rarely speaks his mind. He holds his statements in reserve and listens to everything and if necessary he will contribute something to the conversation. Not one to back down from a fight, the man often got into bar fights and tussles.<br/><br/>After having mutated he locked himself away from the world and by that action he was left alone for many years. Jono sees himself as a freak and often times he forgets that other people have problems, so focused on his own that he loses track. He finds that he has more in common with physically altered mutants than regular looking ones. Though that doesn’t stop him from doing his duty or helping his friends when it is required, yet he usually remains by himself. Jono has the tendency to brood on the actions he has done, especially after what happened to Gayle. What he did has him thinking about how he can try and connect with the world again. So far it has left him isolated and alone much like before.<br/>Though every cloud has a silver lining and in Jono’s case he has a few surprises. Firstly he is a very loyal person to those that have earned his trust and those he calls his friends. He would gladly sacrifice himself to protect those he cares about and those he considers his family. Though his reluctance to allow people past his emotional walls, it makes him detached from those around him in a way. He fears that if anyone was to get to close he would hurt them both physically (by his energy) and emotionally (with his detachment).<br/><br/>Sometimes someone can see him sitting and playing, either an electric or an acoustic guitar. It is only to reminisce perhaps since it brings back memories from his band years. That was a time when everything was normal and simple, before he mutated and entered a life of hell. Jonothon does have a softer side, it’s just harder to find. As much as he tries to deny it, he does sometimes enjoy reading to the younger kids or helping someone with something. Though if asked, he would instantly deny it and tell them they are wrong. Consequently, Jono heavily values his privacy and tends to stand at least 3 feet away from everyone at all times. It’s for no other reason than to keep people at arm’s reach.  Jono understands why the government needs to protect normal humans from mutants that have the potential of killing or injuring innocents. However Chamber dislikes the actions that the Brotherhood takes and blames them for the way the Government acts towards mutants as well.<br/><br/>Jono honestly doesn’t see why Charles is so gentle in regards to the Brotherhood and the violence they inspire. It’s not like there’s a true prison to hold them if caught.<br/><br/><strong>Biography:</strong>Jonothon Evan Starsmore or more simply Jono to his friends was born in London to unpowered parents. Growing up Jono lived a somewhat normal life until his teenage years rolled around. Jono discovered the amazingness of rock music. Metal, goth, anything that you could play with a guitar he got into. It wasn’t long after getting into that type of music that he acquired his first guitar. From there his school work took a back seat to everything that rock music could do. Trying to form a band with his friends, racing motorbikes, going to parties, doing petty crime like picking locks. They were but a few things that Jono got into when he was in his rock and roll phase. Girls were a big thing that drove him to play music. One girl in particular named Gayle got his attention right away.<br/><br/>He met her at a rave with purple hair rebelling against her family and immediately they fell for each other. They attended parties, outings with friends, going to pubs and brawl fights. Since they were both young there seemed like nothing could stop the happy couple.<br/><br/>That was when life threw him a severe curveball. At a party one night after a gig, people were off doing whatever they wanted and the happy couple was in the coatroom aiming on taking off each other’s clothes and getting rowdy.<br/><br/>They hadn’t even gotten their shirts off when Jono noticed his chest heating up and smoking. He tried valiantly to push Gayle out of the coatroom to avoid injury but was unable to in time. In an explosion that took off his chest, lower jaw and half of the building, Jono’s power manifested in a very powerful way. Caught in the blast, Gayle was severely injured losing the use of her legs and leaving her unconscious for several weeks in the hospital.<br/><br/>In grief and horror he escaped to his family’s home and locked himself in the basement isolating him from the world for many months. He was beyond consoling, still horrified that his chest was now exposed and burning with what looked like fire, and that he had hurt someone he had cared about so badly. Over the next few months he came to amazing conclusions and ended up fleeing his house to wander aimlessly in his anger. Jono found that he no longer needed to eat, drink, sleep or even breathe but he was somehow alive. To contain the massive force in his chest, he wrapped himself in bandages that were somehow able to contain the furnace that he had become. As a side effect of losing his throat, he found that he developed the ability to communicate via telepathy.<br/><br/>Stowing away on a ship he came to America where he was attacked by some other mutant that called himself Emplate. Jonothon managed to fight the other mutant off, but drew the attention of the authorities. Given a choice Jonothon decided to head to Xavier’s school while going with the name of Chamber…<br/><br/><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong><span class="bbc_u">Superpowers &amp; Equipment</span></strong></span><br/><br/><strong>Class:</strong>Beta<br/><br/><strong>Psionic Biokinesis:</strong>Chamber is naturally composed of pure psionic energy. His body is just a chamber for what he truly is. The initial emergence of his powers blew a hole in his chest and lower face, completely incinerating most of his internal organs. Because of this, Chamber no longer needs to eat, drink, sleep or breathe. Strangely, his blood continues to flow through his extremities, as if propelled by a churning engine of psionic flame itself. Jono is sustained solely by the psionic flame that rages within his body. If it were somehow snuffed out, he will most likely die. As his flames are actually psionic in nature, and don’t rely on some form of fuel to continue to burn, they also don’t seem to be affected by conditions that would be adverse to actual flame (IE. lack of oxygen, water, etc.)<br/><br/><strong>Biokinetic Flames:</strong>Chamber constantly creates and can release psionic charges of energy that can strike with concussive force, act as generic flame, or cause inanimate objects to explode violently, by forcefully disrupting molecular bonds. Jono can't actively affect molecules containing Carbon in that same explosive manner, but those molecules are still very vulnerable to a direct hit with his biokinetic flame. It is unknown what he might be able to do if he could only reach his full potential.<br/><br/><strong>Projection Telepathy:</strong>Jono is a radio that can send out signals, but not receive them. Chamber can't read minds, probe thoughts, or see things that lie outside his line of sight. He can, however, use his abilities to 'speak' inside the minds of those near him. He can also create psionic illusions. For the most part, these projections are unfocused, and anyone within physical hearing (or viewing) range would be affected. Chamber is beginning to learn limited control over this, however, and is sometimes able to limit who hears and sees what he is projecting. Physical obstructions can't affect these projections as they will real sounds and images. For instance, a person on the opposite side of a soundproof wall would still be able to hear him, as long as she was close enough.<br/><br/><strong>Equipment Name:</strong>Jono tends to carry a set of lock picks with him just in case.<br/><br/><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 14pt;"><span class="bbc_u"><strong><strong>Flaws or Weaknesses </strong></strong></span></span><br/><br/><strong>His own powers:</strong>While Jono can take impressive amounts of damage to his physical body, his powers are also his biggest weakness. As his biokinetic flames are the only thing that keeps Chamber alive. If his powers are shut down by some power nullifying field his physical body would soon die. Also if for some reason he lost his telepathic powers it would truly make him mute.<br/><br/><strong>Human Body:</strong>Jono’s physical shell might be a chamber for his powers, but it’s still as fragile as any other regular human body. He can be wounded by regular means and can still bleed. His bones can break and it’s unknown if a bullet to the brain could kill him or not. Chamber isn’t ready to find that one out yet…<br/><br/><strong>Limits:</strong>Chamber naturally creates the psionic energy that keeps him alive. However, he can use up so much energy to where he is required to take a breather and recharge before continuing. Jono does have natural blocks to where he can’t use enough energy to where he kills himself, but passing out can happen.<br/><br/><strong>Little Control:</strong>Jonothon has very little control over his powers. Most of this comes from the mental issues that he has, there is times that he will use powers on instinct, but not be able to access them again. Jono also has to be at least medium range to use his powers effectively.<br/><br/><strong>Mental Issues:</strong>Chamber has had various mental problems since his own powers emerged. Chief among these being depression when he thinks about the things that he has lost. Jono is also quick to jump to the worst possible outcome, usually that others are ashamed to be seen with him or seeing himself as a monster.<br/><br/><strong>Isolationist:</strong>Unless required by the instructors Jono prefers to be off on his own. Most of the time this is simply to sit and watch the others interact. Other times it’s simply to sit and jam out on the guitar or work in the gym as the music blares. At night while the others sleep he watches TV or plays games on his own…<br/><br/><strong>Physical Flaws:</strong>Jono’s body has born the brunt of his own powers and to the normal people of the world he comes across as a mute burn victim. The black leather he wraps about his broken body hides the fiery blast furnace that is the core of his body. However the wicked scars can still be seen emerging from underneath the leather wrapped about his face.<br/><br/><span class="bbc_u"><strong>Other</strong></span><br/><br/><strong>Brawler:</strong>While his powers might max at a medium range, he is not defenseless for those that try to get in close. Jono has numerous bar fights under his belt and while he might not look it, he is content to sit face to face and simply trade punches. However Jono isn’t above incorporating fighting or pro wrestling moves into his fights.<br/><br/><strong>Musician:</strong>Jono is an accomplished guitarist who was part of his own band as a teenager. He has kept up his practice as the years have gone by playing everything from Stevie Ray Vaughn to Iron Maiden.<br/><br/>Jono doesn't know he's related to either Apocalypse or Blink.
