So Kevin doesn't show up as an area of intense cold to thermal vision?

Oddly, no.

Its a power from the Cold Profile.
Infrared Invisibility: Concealment 2
I didn't out the details in, but he simply doesn't show up to Infravision. A little late now, perhaps a change out of danger, it might be useful only in human form. Taking on ice form might make him too cold. IIRC, the idea behind the power was that your base temperature simply blends in with the ambient temperature, or you lower your temperature to match the environment.

I could see it more at home on a reptile or fish person. More unusual on a guy who does cold. ::shrug:: hardly matters.

oh, i would have thought he'd show up as intense cold, since that's kinda literally how infravision works, you see things based on their relative heat to what is around them. I think cold powers got their science silly.

And holy shit Redline is clearly smuggling horseshoes.

Hmmm... This may or may not affect what I have her do. Is the rain everywhere, including over Ana and Kevin?

Yeah, Storm is trying to quash down the smoke with moisture so she rolled in a rainstorm.

Remind me to put way more points into perception once we have the spending power...

I would tend to agree, but if you see intense cold, then he's not really concealed from it. I'm reminded of the Byrne era Superman explanation of XRay vision - people assume he can't see lead, but he can't see through it which makes it stand out. This is the reverse. Infravision cannot see him.

It's one of those things that sounded cool when I put it in, and now kinda wish that I put in an Environment effect or two in his array instead. :lol:

And hey look, Storm is doing exactly what I wanted to do with a snowstorm. :D

She trusted you with her favourite hoodie, and you just go leaving it behind. D;

She's blaming Kevin now if something happens to it.

*snrk* Okay, I didn't notice that. I suppose that's as good a way to keep it safe as any.

She was carrying two unconscious students that she just tossed aside according to the narrative. The hoodie is small potatoes.

I'm sure they'll be fine. :P

But I should probably edit that so that she hands them off to other kids to take inside.

Edit: There we go, all good. No kids being tossed aside here.
