HISTORY
A known crimnal on his unidentified homeworld, Whitefire led his gang in a series of thefts. The robotic police force suspected him, but could not prove the thefts due to lack of evidence. Whitefire had cleverly utilized a cross-dimensional mass exchanger to hide his ill-gotten gains on Earth, specifically in the New England town of Fairfax.
Items on Earth would trade places with the alien loot, leaving Fairfax's law enforcement to dub it the work of the "Pack-Rat Thief."
Once Whitefire believed he had eluded his local police, he went to Earth himself to retrieve the loot, switching laces with Fairfax detective Greg King and unknowingly attracting the attention of resident teenaged super-heroes Chris King and Vicki Grant. Using their H-E-R-O-dials, Chris was able to defeat Whitefire and an accomplice on Earth while Vicki defeated the rest of Whitefire's gang back on his homeworld. Forced to retreat, Whitefire and his gang were caught by their world's robot police as the stolen items appeared in their possession.
POWERS AND WEAPONS
Whitefire possesses advanced alien tecknology, notably a mass exchanger to swap the places of an item or living being across dimensions. It is presumed he has access to other advanced weapons, but this has yet to be seen.
