Personality:Roberto is a very good kid who gets put into situations that make it seem like he is a troublemaker. It happens so often that he embraces the persona of the rebel of the 'respectable' member of the South American community, which he finds to be most enjoyable as he strongly dislikes his father. This dislike comes from the fact that his father wants him to join the family business, and by want his father means that he demands it of him. Roberto doesn't like this idea as he shows no interest in the world of business. Roberto is more interested in spending his time outside under the sunshine, which is why he likes taking courses that allow him to be outdoors.

Loyalty to one's own family is something that Roberto holds very dear, which means that he will protect his father and side with him even though he doesn't like his father at all. The main thing that keeps him in the same house as his father is his mother, who is currently going through the process of chemotherapy. While Roberto has friends, he is not very close to any of them and therefore won't step in to protect them or help them out whenever they get into some serious trouble. It seems kind of cruel, but they all believe in the idea of natural selection, where the strong survive and the weak must fall. It is the only thing that he has in common with his father, but Roberto will never admit that to anyone in public.
  • Likes: Sunny Days, Girls in Bikinis, Fast Cars, Mountain Climbing, and Surfing
    Dislikes: His Father, Alcohol, Shady Areas, Guns, and Boredom
    Strengths: Roberto is good at getting people to like him, acting, science, sports, and cooking
    Weakness: He is extremely bad when it comes to math and things that would be useful to his father's company.

Power Name: Solar Radiation Absorption
Power Type: Physical
Power Description: absorbs solar energy and can utilize it for physical strength. The cells of a normal human body convert energy from foodstuffs into a form of energy usable by the body. This energy is stored through converting molecules of adenosine diphosphate (ADP) in the cells into adenosine triphosphate (ATP); the energy is released when necessary by breaking a chemical bond in the ATP molecules, converting them back to ADP. Apparently Sunspot can store solar-derived energy in his cells through the same, or a similar method, and release it when necessary to enhance his physical strength. His body is cloaked in darkness because he drains all the ambient light from his skin.

Power Name: Solar Rechanneling
Power Type: Mental/Physical
Power Description: ability to re-channel the solar energy which his body absorbs, by which he takes the solar energy and uses it for a variety of related purposes.

* Flight: ability to fly by propelling himself thorough the air, by force of will, by generating thermal updrafts. Bobby has also refined this ability to be able to hover in the air without leaving a heat trail, and can reach speeds of up to 150 mph maximum without over exerting himself.
* Thermokinesis: ability to project heat in intense waves when he absorbs and re-channels solar energy from any part of his body to raise the temperature. Roberto can also absorb heat into his body to lower the temperature in his immediate area. He can also project and absorb heat directly into/from people, causing intense discomfort at their fluctuating body temperatures.
* Limited Photokinesis: ability to project light in intense waves when he absorbs and re-channels solar energy, and absorb ambient wavelengths.
* Dark Solar Plasma Blasts: ability to project concussive dark plasma energy blasts from his hands, with about 20 tons of force behind them at their most powerful.

Power weaknesses: His powers are directly connected to the sunlight that he absorbs and stores in his body, so once it runs out he is done until he can soak some more in. Individually using one power, Roberto could last up to six hours without recharging. Different combos have different time limits, so he had to be extremely careful during a fight.

Hometown/Birthplace: Rio de Janerio, Brazil
Skills and Talents: Fluently speaks Portuguese, Spanish, Askani and English
Occupation: Student
Education: Going into his senior year
Affiliation: Hellioins


Family:
Emmanuel da Costa (father),
Nina da Costa (mother)

Friends: None

Enemies: Whoever Dislikes his Father

History: Roberto was born and raise in Rio de Janeiro where his father had a lot of influence over the goings on in the area. He never had to want for anything as his mother spoiled him until he was five, when she began to get sick. She was hospitalized the following year while doctors ran tests on her to find out what she had. With her out of the picture more or less, Emmanuel made sure that Roberto focused on his studies, which seemed pretty extreme for a child who was six years old but that was the kind of parent Emmanuel was. Roberto was subject to spending time with tutors and his father with no contact with anyone else.

For seven years, Roberto was nothing more than an academic protege of his father, who was trying to shape him into a carbon copy of himself. This constant pressure drove a wedge in the household. He began acting out in small ways like purposely ditching his tutoring sessions and doing things that his father didn't like, and by the age of fourteen, Roberto was playing soccer with normal kids, surfing on the beaches of Brazil, and taking the blame for crimes that he didn't commit. He spent several nights out with friends instead of coming home, which finally made his father snap to the point that he gave Roberto an ultimatum. Emmanuel said that if Roberto wanted his mother to get proper treatment than he would have to move to the states.

Roberto heard it as his father saying that if Roberto didn't do as he was told then his father would stop paying for his mother's chemo, and this got under his skin enough that Roberto finally realized that he hated his father. He complied with the ultimatum and got back to doing as his father wanted for the next four years, which included Roberto taking outdoor classes to keep some part of his former self alive. There were many things that Roberto also began to do during this time like acting as a way to deceive his father about how much he enjoyed the whole be like me saga of his life. He also began to learn to cook using his mother's cookbooks, which helped him keep in touch with her even though he was forbidden to see her. It was like his father was keeping him on a much shorter leash than his own dog. A more important thing that happened during this time was his powers emerging during a fight that his father had setup in order to punish his son. It turned into a one sided battle as he became cloaked his shadow and surrounded by a yellow-ish aura that allowed for him to have super strength.

At the age of seventeen, Roberto found out something about his father that would make most people be appalled, but not him. His father finally admitted to him that he was apart of the Hellfire Club's Sao Paulo branch. Roberto believed him right off the bat as he knew that his father was some evil man that wanted to rule the world. Emmanuel told him that he was being shipped to the states for further testings on his powers. Roberto was going to refuse, but he knew that his father would play the sick mother card against him. He yet again complied with the only hope being that the distance would loosen his father's hold over his life.
