Personality ` Holocaust is a fiery demon. A aggressive, intelligent, cunning and dangerous individual who has no qualms with taking the live of innocent men, women or children if circumstances so demands. A life-long gang-member, Holocaust has the typical pathos of a criminal of his background. Coming from a low-income working class without strict parental guidance or adult mentorship and growing up in an atmosphere of violence and iniquity forge a strong will and drive to succeed. This drive is prioritized over other concerns and is used as justification over other moral or ethical factors. In short: " It's all fair because I say so. "

Power, the obsession to secure it and resulting feeling of impotency without it, is one of the purer motivation that Holocaust possess. Another, his anger, comes from the lack of power Holocaust felt as a youth. The inability to control his circumstance created a well of rage within the man that seems to serve as the source of his fearsome rage, as well as the psychosomatic source of his powerful pyrokinesis.

History ` Leonard Smalls is the illegitimate son of Dakota Mayor Thomasina Jefferson. A superhumanly strong pyrokinetic, Smalls left the Syndicate after a leadership struggle with Texador, and chose to abandon the small-scale world of gangs for the greater possibilities offered by organized crime. As an initiation ritual, he was obliged to surrender something of great value to him: his name, and the reputation that came with it. Unable to call himself Holocaust, Smalls renamed himself Pyre. As Pyre, he tried to reform a new Blood Syndicate of his own recruiting: Boogieman, Flashback, Mistress Death, Bad Betty, Fade, Tarmack, Bubbasaurus, and Rocket (who was undercover).
