Biography
Jonothon "Jono" Evan Starsmore
Several years ago, he took his girlfriend Gayle out to a party where he went to kiss her in a coat room when his powers first manifested in a traumatic manner. (Weapon X v2 #16)
He received an invitation to join the Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters by Professor Charles Xavier who offered to evaluate Jonothon's condition. Upon arriving in America, he was at Logan Airport at Boston where he was to meet with the X-Men as he was invited to join Generation X. Before he met them, he was attacked by Emplate who wanted to feast on Jonothon's powerful Mutant genes but was overwhelmed by his preys power. This along with the aid of Generation X led Emplate having to flee. (Generation X v1 #1)
Overview
Personality and attributes
It was said that he was a private young man. (Generation X v1 #1)
Ever since his powers manifested, he suffered from bad dreams of the moment they left him in incredible pain and leaving untold damage to the area around him at the time. (Weapon X v2 #16)
He felt that being a Mutant had taken much from his life and believed it was a cost that was more than anyone had to pay. Jono felt a sense of kinship with Penance for this reason as he saw that they were both victims of the horrors of their bodies. (Generation X v1 #3)
Powers and abilities
He generated a bio-nuclear psionic biokinetic field inside of him. (Generation X v1 #1) This created a rampant psionic energy that inhabited his body. (Generation X v1 #3)
After the 'incident', it was said that communication was initially a chore for him. Without a mouth, he was able to speak psychically to others. (Generation X v1 #1) He was able to telepathically send messages to people to the other side of the planet. (Uncanny X-Men v1 #407)
He could use the bionuclear energy within his body to feed the furnace within him. With this power, he could dismantle every atom and disperse it across space. Such an attack could destroy an opponent's body but it destroyed Chamber's body as well thus seemingly killing him. However, unconsciously, he was able to bring back his disjointed energy and reform himself. This saw him restoring his body exactly to the state he remembered of himself. (Generation X Annual v1 #1997)
