{{Tab}}Kyinha appears more or less human in the colder months -- dark brown skin, wavy black hair, and nearly black eyes, with a mix of African, European, and indigenous Brazilian features that strikes most people as devastatingly handsome. Most of the year, however, he is deep, dark, black from head to toe with the exception of his eyes and mouth, which are lit from within by a fiery glow that ranges from reddish-orange to white. This particular shade of black cannot be mistaken for anything like human skin or hair color. It is extremely non-reflective, so that light seems to just fall into it, making it difficult to to discern finer details (such as subtle facial expressions). His body temperature is always higher than human average, ranging from around 40 to 50 degrees Celsius. | |||

{{Tab}}Immensely famous in Brazil as the son of billionaire CEO Emmanuel da Costa who had been raised by his poor caboclo mother, Kyinha who gained infamy as an environmental activist in his teenage years, dubbed the 'Voz da Varzea', the voice of the lowlands. The emergence of his mutant powers caused him to be ejected from the movement to oppose the damming of the Xingu River, his childhood home. He's less well-known in the U.S., but his surname should still be recognizeable to anyone who pays the least bit of attention international or financial news. At Xavier's he's better known as the hellbeast math/biology teacher who's actually kind of an easy-going nerd, and as one of the more destructive X-Men. | |||

{{Tab}} | {{Tab}}Growing up in the varzea of the Xingu river basin, he is an exceptionally strong swimmer and pretty athletic in general. He plays capoeira, primarily for entertainment, although he is able to use it in unarmed combat (or to terrifying effect in combination with his powers). He also enjoys soccer, although he is not that awesome at it by Brazilian standards. | ||
{{Tab}}He is skilled at handling small watercraft and piloting fixed wing aircraft, but hilariously bad at driving land vehicles. He has extensive experience navigating and surviving (and keeping other people alive) in both varzea and terra firme rainforests. He also has a knack for operating, fixing, and sabotaging construction equipment. | |||
{{Tab}}He has a bachelor's in evolutionary biology and a master's in mathematics. His academic specialty is evolutionary game theory, and he is broadly read in the sciences and humanities, though not an active researcher in any field. His first language is a Nheengatu pidgin (derived from various Tupi languages), but he also speaks fluent Portugese and English, conversational Spanish, and just enough of most major indigenous Xingu languages to be polite. | |||
{{Tab}}Though not expecially talented, he loves music and can play the berimbau. He also loves food and, while not a great cook, can make reasonably palatable dishes out of pretty random ingredients. | |||
