## Biography

### Kyle Rayner: 2000 - 2016

Kyle Arron Rayner, where to begin the beginning would be good presume, only child of single mother Maura Rayner, Kyle lived a good life and was often a friendly kid though he had trouble staying still and often got in trouble because of this with his teachers often stating how Kyle had lacked displine. Due to this, Kyle had quite the artistic talent and continued to draw throughout his childhood. By the time Kyle reached Middle School he masterd the skill of art and gained a schloarship for Metropolis Academy School of Art where he would come across Jessica Parker with her brother while backpacking their way into Gotham to look for their parents. With the two having a childhood romance during her short time with Metropolis due to their love of art.

While the follwing weeks they spent together Tommy made her break things off with Kyle before leaving for Gotham, being in quite a slump for a while though after a while he refounded his artistic style while working on a painting one night Kyle nearly avoided a beaten Hal Jordan falling from the sky during a battle with a series of Manunters attack on various heroes. Seeing the manhunter's approach Kyle steeled his resolve and took of Hal's ring before blasting away the approaching the remaining manhunter's, after taking Hal to a rooftop and he woke up surprised to see someone else doning his ring Hal was increibly shocked by Kyle's will being able to use Hal's ring.

After taking his ring back Hal returned Kyle home and told him that'd he be back once the manhunters were was done with, and Hal was a man of his word the following two weeks later Hal approached Kyle with a Green Lantern ring in hand telling him that he was needed on OA for his training. While Kyle did agree the matter of his mom was still in the air, which didn't take long as Hal called Bruce Wayne for a cover, under the ruse of an extended art program for the following weekends and breaks during the school year. And so with that the Lanterns gained a new member (despite John not fuly on board for having a fifteen year-old as a lantern) along with ring being able to refuse John's attempt to override the ring. After some thought Kyle signed up fatser than you can think and with cover being set up, Kyle spent his training on Oa with his will fitting the job, and did it.

### Green Lantern: 2016 - Present Day

During his training on Oa, Hal took a liking to Kyle and took him along with some missions to show him the ropes of being a lantern in the process and gained high marks due to his artistic nature and willed various inventions in the process, with him being the youngest human lantern in history. Kyle took had raw talent in the process because of this Hal would consider brining Kyle within the teenage teams on earth but not before he completed his training. While not always shadowing Hal he would work with John and Guy Gardner, while John saw the same talent that Hal recongized Guy seemed pissed that a teenager could outclass him (which is hilarous by the way.) It is also said that Kyle has more raw talent than any Lantern before him or since, at least in recent history and finished his training with nothing but high marks.

After finishing his training, Hal decided to take Kyle on as a protege of sorts while the two fought monsters and alien criminals in space alike along with the following summer Hal brought up the topice of bringing Kyle on as a member of the Teen Titans and Young Justice. To which the League agreed to Kyle followed Hal's example and donned a mask to which he debuted that summer as Earth's fourth lantern, making his presense known in Metropolis he made his stake as a beloved hero in his surronding neighborhood. Along with this during his summers in Jump City and Happy Harbor he made fast friends amoung his teammates even with Damian (which is shocking really) along with becoming bros with Tommy Parker.

On his personal life, Kyle continued with High School and found some work as an artist for the time along with passing his classes, along with running into Jesse a few times during his time at the Tower or Mt. Justice he attempted to ask her out a few times to which she kindly rejected before realizing that she began dating the second Spider-Man, Miles Moarles while he did seem heart broken he attempted to pursue an regular teenage relationship. While he did attempt to hold onto his relationships it's clear that his duties as an Lantern along with being a Titan and a member of the team put a strain on them and caused a break up after five or six months along with when on missions with Hal and would usually run into alien girls that were around his age would ultimately fail either to long distance or differences of cultural. Due to this Kyle decided to stick with earth girls I'm pretty sure that Emily Banks has a crush on him.
