Nickname: Ace Van Rose(he changed his name,but Matthew Daniel Greystone is still his legal name. Named after Ace Frehley of KISS, Eddie Van Halen of Van Halen,and Axl Rose of Guns N' Roses)
Codename:Dragon
Affiliation:X-Men
Powers:Create and control fire, more obviously he can fly,and his fingernails are hard and sharp enough to act as a lethal weapon. His skin is also very durable,almost nothing can pierce it(bullets,and anything with a sharp tip traveling at great speeds can pierce his skin) He can also withstand tempatures of up to 45,000 degress ferenheit. His skin also acts as a heat conductor,if it wasn't for his skin he would freeze to death in tempatures that would make most humans and mutants suffer heat strokes. Perhaps his body intolerabilty towards tempatures below 200 degrees ferenheit is linked to his body tempature,a scorching 856 degrees ferenheit.

Personality:He's a big guy with a heart. Despite his almost demonic looks he wouldn't hurt a soul unless it was to protect someone else. He's a great guy to be around,and he always knows just what to say when someone is feeling down,he also loves to party.
History:He was born in Detroit,Illinois the infamous rock city. His parents were both very gifted in the musical arts,his mother played flute for a world renowed local choir,and his father was also in the choir playing the acoustic guitar. At the age of seven Matthew began to take great instrest in learning to play an electric guitar. By the time he was nine he could play several songs that would take most people years and years to learn,he was able to play a song right off the bat as soon as he read the notes, in fact the first song he ever learned to play was Stairway to Heaven by Led Zeppilin. At the age of thirteen Matthew entered into the schools musical program, where his teacher learned that he was not only a musical prodigy,but he also had an incredible voice,that he could easily change to match the feel of the song. It wasn't until he was fifteen that his musical prefrences surfaced,his parents played almost nothing but classical music,and it was his best friend Ronnie Duran who introduced him to the world of rock,and rock he did. Within a week Matthew couldn't get enough of KISS, AC/DC,Van Halen and Guns N' Roses. When he was seventeen he decided to start a band, the band was untitled for a long time and that became the name,Untitled. People said that they sounding like KISS, AC/DC and Van Halen all rolled into one,and people obviously liked it. Their first album went gold,and their second one platinum. By the time he was nineteen his band had recorded five albums three of them sporting at least four number one hits,and the most popular song,staying at the number one spot for three months was the suicidal power ballad, Pardon Me(While I Grab My Knife) the medolic melody combined with the haunting lyrics made it wasn't hard to see why this song was so popular. However with most success stories comes a price, the band's bass player was a heavy drug addict,and at a concert lashed out and severly injured a fan,leaving Ace as he now preferred to be called,no choice but to fire him. Quickly they found a new bassist but he wasn't as good as their old one. Conflicts began to rise between the band members,and their seventh album wasn't gold nor platinum for the first time in the history of the band's creation. When Ace was twenty the band split up,most persued solo careers,and some didn't to anything with their lives. Unlike most mutants whose powers emerge in adolesence Ace's had been slowly evolving over his life. He was at a mall,signing autographs for herds of screaming fan girls as usual, when he fell to his knees in pain,several shoppers turning to stare at him. He felt as if something was ripping through his shoulders,and they were; two black angel like wings with red tips emerged from his shoulders,the wings were soaked in blood,but it didn't stop there. His skin began to fall off revealing black scales underneath,his finger nails turned black and began to grow and sharpen. He began to bleed from the mouth,and when he opened it his turned had turned pure white,and was splitting itself apart. Fearful,the shoppers began to charge at him, that was when fire shot from his hand,and killed twelve people,and severly injured twenty more. He fled the city,nobody would let him stay in a hotel and he was ran out of town almost the instant he got there. He had been living on the streets for about two months when he received a message from Xavier inviting him to stay at the institute,with the message was a black cloak,and a fake I.D with this he was able to get a bus to Bayville were he was picked up and brought to the institute. He has been for a month,and has proven himself to be a very effiecent team member
