[edit] Fictional character biography

G-Type is one of the Shi'ar's Imperial Guard, and is also an alien. He was engineered in the stellar nurseries of Hodinn and was conposed of a living solar plasma, with a constant surface temperature of 6000 kelvins (about 10,000 degrees Fahrenheit or 5,700 degrees Celsius). Because of this G-Type wears a specially-constructed suit of armour which assists him in retaining a humanoid form, and containing the incredible heat he generates. G-Type can focus the intense energies that his body generates through a pair of wrist-mounted flamethrowers. G-Type is also a telepath, although the nature and extent of this telepathy is unknown.

His mind, like the minds of many other Shi'ar soldiers, was overtaken by the telepath Cassandra Nova. He was defeated by Cyclops and the entity known as Xorn, whom he was planning to fire into the Earth's atmosphere.
