August Heart is a speedster from the future year of 2049 known as Godspeed. He is the arch-enemy of the youthful speedster XS.

## Backstory

August was born on August 16, 2021. He attended Central City South High School and graduated three years in advance with a grade point average of 5.2.

In adulthood, he attended Central City University and studied biochemistry engineering.

Sometime in the year 2049, August became Godspeed after having experimented with tachyons to give himself speed.

## Biography

Godspeed began stealing chemicals to make Velocity-9, a serum that could greatly enhance a speedster's already impressive speed. However, his theft was foiled by a young female speedster, who's later revealed to be Nora West-Allen, who he actually met when he visited the Flash Museum.

After awakening her speedster powers, Nora would go on to attempt to stop Godspeed's robberies, but he angrily knocked her down with a lightning bolt and then defeated her in speed combat, after which he then murdered Nora's best friend Lia Nelson for taking what he aimed to steal.

After learning from the Earth-X Eobard Thawne, Nora fought and defeated Godspeed by tricking him into getting in the way of some radio waves that disrupted the V9 in his system, thus cancelling out his speed powers indefinitely. August was then taken into custody by the CCPD while his Godspeed suit was taken to be an exhibit in the Flash Museum, much to his irritance.

He would later escape and steal his Godspeed suit and almost killed Nora, but she is saved by Hulk.

## Personality

Similar to Hunter Zolomon, August is obsessed with his speed, also like Hunter, August is extremely arrogant, self-obsessed and egotistical to the point of having a god-complex, as he proclaims himself the "God of Speed"; believing himself incapable of being defeated by other speedsters and meta-humans.
