| “ | When I blast into battle with a tank full of fuel, things REALLY get hot! | ” |
Blast-Off is a courageous and enthusiastic individual, fueled by a genuine desire to help those in need. He thrives in high-pressure situations and brings an unwavering resolve to any mission. While his boisterous personality can sometimes grate on his teammates, his unwavering dedication and expertise are undeniable assets. Blast-Off possesses a unique Bio-Armor suit, a groundbreaking fusion of bio-engineering and mechanical weaponry. This advanced suit offers exceptional protection against fire and hazardous materials while granting him enhanced strength and dexterity. The suit also boasts an internal fuel tank, allowing Blast-Off to unleash powerful incendiary attacks when necessary (though his motto might suggest a more frequent use of this feature than necessarily prudent).
History[]
Pre-MUX History[]
Born in Kirkwood, Missouri, Jeffery Thompson grew up to become one of the foremost firefighters in the state. After single-handedly putting out a forest fire after other firefighters had long succumbed to heat and smoke inhalation, Thompson was approached by Gung-Ho to join a special squad of Mega-Marines to hunt the monstrous creations of Dr. Mindbender. Thompson worked with the Joes for a year, starting in 1993, adopting the codename Blast-Off. He was given special Bio-Armor, a breakthrough in bio-mechanical armament.
In 1994, when the Joes shut down, Blast-Off returned to firefighting, but remained on call if the Joes needed him.
MUX History[]
In 2011, Blast-Off was called up for search & rescue operations during the Great Flood and has since been assigned to the Pit for safety and security detail.
In 2013, Blast-Off received zero-G combat training and was assigned as fire-control officer for Star Brigade in addition to his other duties.
In 2021, Blast-Off was reassigned to Space Station Delta.
In 2024, Blowtorch, Charbroil, Ice Cream Soldier, and Blast-Off were added to ECO Force, and Deep-Six, Snowstorm, Barbecue, and Outback moved to ECO's reserves.
OOC Notes[]
Since Blast-Off was recruited by Gung-Ho to be a Mega-Marine, on the MUX he is a member of the Marines.
