{{Tab}}Anyone who doesn't live under a rock | {{Tab}}Anyone who doesn't live under a rock has likely at the very least heard Ryan's name; it's quite likely they'll also find his face familiar; any amount of pop cultural OR current events knowledge whatsoever and he's ''readily'' identifiable on sight. An enormously popular star in the music world, he was wildly successful first thanks to the magic of streaming services and social media hype even before a record deal. Loudly outspoken about his queerness, about his anarchist politics, proud of his Latine heritage and vocally supportive of a range of leftist politics, his brash rebel image was a large part of his appeal with his fanbase. He was the celebrity who first made popular the "Magneto Was Right" shirts (before he was openly mutant); frequently in the news for altercations with fascists or other assorted bigots. The paparazzi likes to call him a bad boy; he says he's just passionate. | ||
{{Tab}}His debut album was met with critical acclaim and topped the charts since its release; his shows sell out routinely, and he was the second artist in history to win all the general field Grammys in a single night -- following which he outed himself as a mutant on stage in his acceptance speech in February of 2019. As the first mutant celebrity at this level of national fame in the country it's been a rocky road since then -- losing his record deal, an upcoming movie contract, venues cancelling on him left and right. Several (very public) assassination attempts both overshadowed and augmented the publicity around his withdrawal from and then return to performing. | |||
{{Tab}}In 2023 he stirred up a media furor Yet Again, this time in connection with [[Prometheus]]'s return to the spotlight -- during the media spectacle around their ignominous downfall it came out that not only was Ryan an ex-inmate in the mutant experimentation labs, he had been working for a decade and a half with [[Jax|Jackson Holland]] to lead the team that liberated people from the labs. ''Severely'' injured in the publicized raid on Lassiter, he has not made much ''public'' appearance since Prometheus's downfall, though his PR team has released statements that he & his family would appreciate privacy as he recovers. | |||

*Though the ''full'' potential and range of his mutation is not known, it is well known that he can manipulate sounds and has some empathic abilities, which has lead many people to accuse him of "cheating" somehow in the music he creates or the enjoyment people get at his shows, up to and including petitions to revoke the many awards he has received. | |||

*Has very been the target of many high-profile assassination attempts since coming out as a mutant and quite a number of less well known ones -- the one that received the most press by far was a bombing at the 2019 Met Gala that killed several of his crew/band/backup dancers and nearly killed him. | |||
*Known to preferentially hire mutants for any position that works for him -- crew, band, bodyguards, etc; though it's harder to exclusively patronize mutant businesses for ''all'' the peripheral work associated with his music he goes out of his way to try that as well, which has directly led to a number of mutant businesses growing around the country that previously could not get off the ground. | |||
