Dr Flame Character Sheet - Tony Rico - Fire-Sprite
Tony Esmeralda Rico
Nickname: Fire Sprite, Los Grillo
Height: 4'4"
Weight: 100 lbs
Hair: Black
Eyes: Green
Nationality/Ethnicity: Mexican
Sex: Male
Age: 17-18
Rank: C-Rank
Appearance
Tony has proportional dwarfism (average adult height around 4 feet). He has an average build, tan skin, medium-length black hair, green eyes, and a small mole under his left eye.
At the beginning, he usually wears his school uniform: a white collared button-up shirt, red sweater vest, and black slacks.
When working with Dr. Flame and Lion-Gal, he switches to his tennis uniform — a short-sleeved collared shirt with large red-and-yellow checkered patterns, red shorts, tennis shoes, yellow wristbands, and red sweatbands.
Early on, he often wears referee shirts or sportswear because he sees himself as smaller than the larger-than-life superheroes around him. As his confidence grows, he begins wearing city sports jerseys and more casual outfits, trying to look “cool” while still keeping his humble nature.
Backstory
Tony Esmeralda Rico is a born mutant raised by his grandmother, Gabriela, after his parents died during a cruise accident. He only knows them through stories describing them as free-spirited activists.
He discovered his powers at age four. Afraid he might hurt himself or others, his grandmother trained him to control them and encouraged him to use his abilities responsibly.
At school he became popular with the basketball team after performing impossible slam dunks — his fire powers made his body lighter than air, earning him the nickname Los Grillo.
Before finishing 11th grade, he saw news coverage of Doctor Flame. He became inspired, believing he could one day help people alongside a hero who represented someone like him.
With his grandmother’s blessing, he crossed the border into San Diego, California — immediately getting caught in the middle of a major superhero battle. After being rescued by Dr. Flame, he was harshly scolded and belittled by the very hero he idolized.
Disillusioned by Andres’ personality, Tony instead found inspiration in Lion-Gal. He saw her as disciplined, moral, and respectful — the kind of hero he wanted to become. This admiration quickly turned into an obvious crush.
After negotiations with the SSDF (State Super Defense Force), Tony was allowed to stay and train as their sidekick. He now trains under both Andres/Dr. Flame and Angelina/Lion-Gal, frequently clashing with Andres about what being a hero actually means — and complicating matters with a one-sided love triangle.
Personality
Tony is timid, cowardly, polite, and extremely helpful. He often reacts to bizarre situations with exaggerated expressions and panic because he is still adjusting to superhero life.
He begins insecure but optimistic. His hobbies include cooking, comic books, and sports. When pushed, he can become argumentative and ramble passionately.
He is also diligent and strong-willed. He obsessively takes notes about hero work, carrying stacks of index cards in his pockets. Because of this habit, he developed a sharp analytical mind and can create battle strategies in seconds, factoring in allies and enemies alike. Angelina has noted he could easily succeed in business or marketing.
Tony is deeply compassionate and will rush to save someone even when he knows he is outmatched and if the potential danger is terrifying. Ironically, he becomes reckless in emergencies despite normally overthinking everything.
He is loyal to a fault, guided by a strict personal honor code. He is clumsy, stubborn about helping people, unintentionally blunt, and hopelessly romantic. He has a temper — but far milder than Andres. His defining traits are kindness and sincerity.
He also wants recognition and sometimes uses cheap popularity tactics, like wearing local team jerseys wherever he goes.
Powers, Abilities, and Fighting Style
Fire Mutation
Tony possesses extremely refined fire manipulation — in pure control and precision he actually surpasses Andres.
He can:
• Create and shape fire constructs
• Form sports-themed weapons (baseball bats, basketballs, frisbees, javelins)
• Superheat his skin to near red-hot metal temperatures
Superhuman Physical Ability
His fire powers reduce his body weight dramatically, allowing:
• Jumps over 120 feet high
• Extremely powerful kicking attacks
• High endurance and pain tolerance
He can continue fighting after severe injuries. He once survived a broken neck and forced it back into place without long-term damage.
Spiritual Awareness
Tony can sense ghosts and spiritual presences and can see them while asleep. This ability functions as a form of danger sense.
Intelligence
Tony’s greatest strength is his mind. He excels at observation, planning, and tactical improvisation. He frequently designs strategies that maximize his allies’ abilities rather than relying solely on his own power.
Skills
• Cooking
• Basketball
• Baseball
• Track & field
• Volleyball
• Boxing
• Pole vault
He fights like an athlete — mobility, angles, positioning — more “sports physics” than brawler.
Weaknesses
• Water
• Lack of oxygen
