## Concept Lore

Unholy Natureman's journey from a beacon of hope to a harbinger of chaos is a twisted tale of manipulation, tragedy, and an irreversible descent into darkness.

In an era where the guardians of the universe forged rings of power to protect and serve, Unholy Natureman was once a proud member of the Green Lantern Corps, wielding the emerald light of willpower to uphold justice and maintain order across the cosmos. His true name, known only to his fellow Lanterns, was Alden Verdan. With a heart brimming with courage and the unwavering will to protect, he patrolled the far reaches of the universe, extinguishing the flames of evil wherever they flickered.

However, fate can be cruel, and it was during an assignment to the planet Earth that Alden's life took an unexpected turn. As he patrolled the skies of Gotham City, he was ambushed by the seductive and deadly Poison Ivy. Her mastery over plants and toxins proved too much for Alden, and in a moment of vulnerability, he fell prey to her powers. Ivy's toxic touch not only stripped him of his Green Lantern abilities but also ignited a newfound connection to the natural world that she so passionately controlled.

Awakening from the encounter, Alden found himself irrevocably changed. No longer able to wield the green light of willpower, he discovered that he could now manipulate the forces of nature itself. The verdant energies that surged through him allowed him to bend plant life to his will, harness the power of the elements, and wield the very essence of life and death. The irony was not lost on him: once a guardian of order, he now held dominion over the untamed chaos of the natural world.

However, this transformation came at a cost. Ivy's toxic influence lingered within him, warping his mind and corroding his sense of morality. The once-noble Green Lantern Alden Verdan was consumed by a newfound darkness, fueled by the very nature he now commanded. No longer bound by the oath of the Corps, he adopted a new identity: Unholy Natureman, a force of twisted nature and malevolent intent.

It was during his downward spiral that the enigmatic and deranged Joker caught wind of Unholy Natureman's turmoil. Recognizing the chaos that churned within him, Joker saw an opportunity to exploit and manipulate Alden's fractured psyche. Joker's siren call resonated with the darkness that now thrived within Unholy Natureman, luring him further into the depths of villainy.

Embracing Joker's twisted guidance, Unholy Natureman learned to wield his dual weapons with ruthless efficiency. His flight through the skies was now marked by an aura of corruption and decay, his very presence a blight on the natural world he once sought to protect.

With each malevolent act, Unholy Natureman's connection to the natural world deepened, further entwining his fate with the chaos he embraced. He became a living embodiment of the paradoxical fusion of life and death, growth and decay, order and anarchy. As he stood by the Joker's side, he revelled in the havoc they wreaked upon Gotham City, a city that had been the catalyst for his transformation from hero to villain, from protector to destroyer.
