Description
At a glance, this being seems to be a robot, or at least a humanoid in an armored battle suit. Its stature is man-sized, maybe about six feet tall. The armor has a blank faceplate marked with three grooves that meet where the bridge of the nose should be. The grooves are lit with blue light. The armor itself resembles an old fashioned suit of armor -- it looks like golden plates attached over the man's form. Beneath the armor, visible at his fingers and at the gaps between the armor plates, the man appears to be clad in a black body suit.
Background
Powers
Reportedly, the Promothean can wield a vast array energies through reconfiguring its systems. However, the reconfiguration process is lengthy. Upon its arrival on Earth, the Promothean possessed the ability to manipulate gravitic energy. In addition, the Promethean has strong mental powers, capable mentally recruiting normal people into its service. At one point, it had most of the population of Monkey Island help it with its scheme.
The Promethean possessed a ship capable of interstellar travel and a team of six walking war machines.
In a recent fight, a single blow from Sword Dancer's blade brought the Promethean to its knees, signalling that perhaps the robot was somehow vulnerable to the attack.
Personality
The Promethean is a robot. It follows its programming singlemindedly without remorse and without thought of the impact to others.
Relations
The Promethean has no known relations.
History
The Promethean first appeared on Earth in October 2056, as part of the Attack of the Promethean story. A group of heroes including Random Factor, Kibin, Lightning, and Sword Dancer defeated him at his stronghold on Monkey Island. After its defeat, the Promethean was turned of to the custody of Star Hunter Ultima for extradition to a Guild of Planets penitentiary.
