Notable for her fire powers, super speed, eyesight, and levitation, Lilian Beck first adopts the name Housefires after she responds to a fire in her hometown of Liberation City, DA, and after being engulfed by the flames, gains powers. These powers come as the result of a gene she possesses which turns the fire inwards, and allows her to control it. After realizing she has numerous newfound abilities, including super speed and eyesight from when the rare gene was activated, Housefires promptly rejects her newfound abilities, attempting to contain them and to live a normal life. However, after Liberation City is destroyed by Tornado Man, Beck realizes she has a duty to her city and country to use her powers for good. Defeating Tornado Man in a major battle, Beck adopts the name Housefires, paying homage to the source of her powers. After, she begins to fight crime in Liberation City, the USQ, and around the world. In the 1970's fictional time, Beck joins the Knights of Life superhero group to help contain crime, and also cooperates frequently with ICEC and numerous other heroes.
