History
WikiBoy became a member of the LNH, and was almost immediately used as a combination of comic relief and plot device.
During Beige Midnight, he was instrumental in stopping Hex Luthor from gaining the power of the Cosmic Plot Device – by being edited into a piece of the device, and reverted at a critical moment. Similarly, when the LNH was infected with a virus that was turning them into Dorfs, WikiBoy was edited into being able to cure individuals while the Legion hunted for the Dorfs' weakness.
Over time, he has built bonds of respect with some members of the Legion, and grown as an individual, separate from his edits. He ended up joining The Core LNH.
Personality
Generally pretty passive. Overall, tries to take his strange fate with good humor, but gets frustrated at those who abuse his powers, though he tends not to express this directly. Conversely, is quite grateful to those who take his own opinions and preferences into account.
See also How To Write WikiBoy.
Powers and Abilities
Has the ability to be edited by any LNH member, changing his physical attributes, powers, and abilities, as well as outward personality. Said edits are achieved by saying, for instance, "WikiBoy, you're a truck," causing him to transform into a truck. These edits may be reverted at any time, and other wiki-esque changes may be performed, including page locks and temporary account bans.
Appearance
Variable. Usually male.
Descriptions include:
- "young-ish, male-ish, with a confused and vulnerable air to him. But beyond that his appearance was hard to pin down. Or rather, he seemed to be a lot of things potentially at once."
- "remarkably like Tobey Maguire, but shorter, schlubbier, and with a beaver's tail"
- The Core LNH #1.0
Awards
In the 2006 RACCies, WikiBoy won Favorite Hero/Protagonist and Favorite Supporting Character, winning the latter again in 2008. He also received a single last-place vote in the 2007 LNH Election.
