History

No doubt long and storied, but mostly unrevealed. He was active at least as early as World War II, as one of the Classics Squad, and was also a member of the post-war Challengers of the Abominable. His first sidekick, Bobby, made his debut in 1941 and died (or did he?) in 1943. Decades later, Gary Niceguy was his sidekick for a brief period.

In the modern day, he showed up to defeat Marshall LaRocque and joined the LNH full-time. He's known as one of the more community-minded heroes, often spending his time rescuing cats, putting out fires, etc. in Net.ropolis.

He's often joined in on modern-day adventures as a viewpoint of experience, or as a contrast to a more modern-day- or youth-themed member. Currently, he's a member of The Core LNH.

Personality

Thinks in terms of Golden Age simplistic morality and cause and effect. So nice he's annoying. Tends to talk in an old-fashioned, heroic way; what that means varies from writer to writer, but generally, it involves declaiming a lot, and saying things like "Halt, evildoer!"

Powers and Abilities

Similar to the Golden Age Superman or Captain Marvel. Also has the effect of interacting with his environment in a Golden Age way; for instance, if he lifts a building it will be flat on the bottom with no plumbing, wiring, etc. Draws on the Golden Force, a realm of pure signal.

In his somewhat off-model appearance as part of the LNH Friends, he had "Golden Telepathy."

Appearance

Sparkling golden tights, no mask, wavy black hair (with blue highlights), classically strong features. Has a subtle golden glow, which is more visible in the dark.

Relationships

Has some kind of evil twin relationship going on with the Psycho-Pyrite.

Greatly admires the well-known but little-appreciated net. hero Mr. Net.ropolis, who may be his first sidekick, Bobby – but if he knows, he's not telling.
