History
Manuel had the ability to sense and manipulate the emotions of others. He was first seen in a battle that pitted the New Mutants against the Hellions. It was during this contest that Empath and Magma supposedly fell in love with each other.
Magma eventually left the New Mutants and joined the Hellions to be with Empath, and later the couple left the Hellions together and moved to New Roma. After a long and harrowing storyline Magma left Nova Roma in search of her real family, and Empath disappeared for parts unknown.
