Vincent Chamberlain, also known by his hero name Hephaestus, is a senior at Harmonious Hero High School. He is the first student from HHHS to get his Professional Hero License before graduating. He is the protagonist of High School Hero!
Vincent is the average height for his age, standing at about 5'9". His posture isn't the best, so sometimes he appears shorter. He has a round face and short, brown hair with a right part (on his side). He was born with heterochromia, his left eye a greenish-blue and his right eye brown. He has fair skin, cursed with burning instead of tanning in the sun. Due to his profession, his body is toned, and he works hard to maintain it.
Vincent's every day wear consists of a beat up pair of black converse, cargo shorts, and a band t-shirt of some kind. When it's cold, he'll add a red jacket and replace the cargo shorts for baggy jeans.
At the beginning of his hero career, Vincent's hero disguise was a skin-tight suit. Near the neck and shoulders, a gray v-shape with a lightning bolt extends downward. It jumps from the gray to a deep red, where it tapers off into orange and yellow, like a fire. A black belt shaped like an X is settled on his waist solely for aesthetic purposes. He also wears a mask that is half-black and half-red to cover his identity. It shouldn't really work that well, but since Vincent looks like every other white guy, it somehow does. His black shoes can turn into rollerblades with red wheels for a speedy getaway.
His current hero outfit is a similar color pallete to his first design, but with a more loose, breathable fabric. The sleeves are now as short as a t-shirt's, and the pants are as short as his cargo shorts. He still has the black X-shaped belt around his waist, and the same black and red rollerblades. The colors of his mask have been swapped, now a half-red and half-black mask. He added fingerless leather gloves to the design.

Vincent is your typical popular high school boy: confident, cocky, and obnoxious at times. He loves cracking jokes at any given moment, even during his job (though it's toned down immensely for professionalism). Being around people boosts his energy and silliness. When he's alone, Vincent is more calm and carefree, able to keep a level-head if the situation calls for it.
Vincent is also very emotionally driven. He thinks with his heart instead of his head, acting on impulse most of the time. He doesn't think about the consequences completely before acting. He finds it difficult to control or supress his emotions. He is an open book emotionally!
Flame Manipulation: Vincent was blessed with Fire Manipulation, hence his hero name being Hephaestus. The name is pretty self-explanatory: Vincent is able to manipulate flames. This includes naturally occuring flames, manmade flames, and flames that come from other people's abilities.
Increased Heat Tolerance: Vincent's heat tolerance is higher than the average person's. He can even physically touch flames for a brief period of time. This doesn't mean he is entirely fire-proof, as he can still get burned or singed if exposed to flames for too long.
Feed the Flame: Vincent can grow and shrink flames by manipulating the heat and oxygen around it.
