1980s
An Australian mutant who can manipulate (but not create) fire, shaping flames into any form he can imagine. Pyro was a founding member of Mystique's Brotherhood and one of the most visually spectacular villains in the franchise. His death from the Legacy Virus was one of the era's most poignant moments — a villain given dignity in his final hours.
