Flint Gordon Sr. was killed in a house fire when Flint was eight; the cause of the fire is unknown but may have been caused by one of the Gordons, both of whom are known to have manifested pyrokinetic abilities. It should be noted that it is unlikely Flint manifested his ability at this time. Flint was separated from his sister and lived in at least six group homes and with several foster families in various states (AR, TX, TN, MO) before running away.
At seventeen years of age Flint was charged on multiple counts of robbery and arson in West Virginia and Maryland. He was later released on bail by his sister, and dropped off the grid shortly afterward. He has since been linked to a number of other arrests for petty crimes under various aliases and has strong ties to at least two murder cases.
In late 2006 Company agents captured both Flint and his sister Meredith in Memphis, Texas. The Gordons were placed aboard a freight train bound for Odessa, where they were to be delivered to Primatech Paper, but en route Flint was able to help his sister escape, at the cost of being recaptured himself.
Flint was briefly detained in Primatech Paper and interrogated by Director Thompson to determine if he knew the location of any of Meredith Gordon's safehouses, but after it was determined that he had no information of value he was relocated to the more secure facility at Primatech Research in Hartsdale, New York. En route to Primatech Research Flint was able to overpower his guards and escape. He currently remains at large.
