Many years ago, in a misguided attempt to salve his conscience and keep the 'neers from cutting power to some hab compartments, Torch (with a little help from Cipher), destroyed the systems and codes that enable the 'neers to selectively control power distribution. Unfortunately those same controls managed the day-night cycle in the ag dome, causing a disaster called The Great Bake. Torch was ritually exiled from the 'neer clans at that point.

The Flock
Secrets
What Swan knows:
- Torch has a reputation for being a psycho who loves to hurt people, but it's not that simple. Torch's... issues... have left him uncomfortable with decisions. Being Swan's bodyguard requires him to constantly decide who's a threat, who's not a threat, and how to respond to all the potential threats that present themselves. When he finally gets to stop worrying about all that and get to the fighting, the relief from the pressure of making decisions leads him to overreaction and excess.
What Absinthe knows:
- Torch is completely asexual, not just behaviorally, but medically. He's not capable of sexual desire or activity.
Lives near Swan in Ring 23, which is an unpowered wide ring.
