H.E.R.O 2.0

#### **Hammond Magnus/Hero-Man**

   Born to Maximus and Sybella Magnus, in the early 1990s, Hammond Magnus had a future set out for him before he could even walk. As his parents, who's heroic alter-egos of Maximum Man and Symbolik, the leaders of the Heroic Evil Retaliation Force, or H.E.R.O. led multiple lives--Hammond lived a normal one. Growing up at Magnus Hall, a vast residence where a young Hammond would get lost from time-to-time, until he soon discovered a love for some of the little gizmos and gadgets that his father would bring home from Magnus Tech--at one time one of the largest tech companies in the 1980 and 90s. His father, Maximus saw Hammond's clear fascination with anything electronic, and soon found his son's love of technology the perfect pathway for the child's future.

As Hammond went to private schools for most of his years, he met Steven Johnson. Hammond, who'd skipped from the Fifth grade to Eighth, showed his intelligence knew no bounds. The two didn't share much in common as they got older, but remained friends up through the pair graduated College. Hammond, by now a full fledged tech geek, was also incredibly smart, and helped his friend whenever he needed. In exchange, Steven would teach Hammond basic defensive combat, as well as get Hammond to join a few athletic clubs at school. By the time they both graduated, Hammond was in the top 10 in his class, though Hammond was two years younger. It was shortly after this that Maximus and Sybella, under the masks they wore as the members of H.E.R.O had disappeared into the Void Portal that Neuro-Hawk had sent them into, the night he betrayed them.

After members of the AGENCY, who had known the Magnus' family friends, the Bellingtons--who's son, Julius, was set to join, tried to keep it a cover-up, saying the orphaned teenager's parents had died on a research mission for Magnus Tech. Hammond, who was too young to accept the inheritance of his father's multi-million dollar company, let it fall to the shareholders, and moved out of Magnus Hall. Having more than enough savings, he moved into the City, and began working more on gadgets and gizmos like he had always done growing up.

Agent 11, who had known the Magnus' for years, reached out to James, who's son Julius was in the AGENCY. James, who's wife Kathleen was ill at the time, was still watching over Hammond from time-to-time. Hammond, who had bought an apartment building, through one of the Magnus Foundation accounts he was in charge of when he turned 18. Living in it, as a normal tenant, while none of his neighbors knew how wealthy the 20 year old in Apartment 5-H was. Agent 11, who kept tabs on Hammond himself, watched carefully in case any members of the SOCIETY decided to hold Hammond for ransom, or any other gain.

Getting a job at a corner computer store, where he was one of the best and smartest repair techs, he slowly began to forget about his parents. One day he went to the nearby coffee shop. Inside, as he worked on an anti-hacking virus, one of the baristas, Angel Stargazer, was bringing him is hot chocolate, when she lost her grip and spilled it on her laptop. She over-apologized, and soon the two began to talk. As time passed, and he became a regular every night after work, the two began to talk more and more. Their first date was at a local Taco Kingdom, but soon they began to tire of the same food and Hammond offered to cook for her back at his apartment. Several months later, as rent got too high in her own small apartment, he asked if she wanted to move in, and she eventually did. Living together for over a year, Hammond and Angel grew more and more in love.

One fateful day, after he and Angel spent an afternoon in the park, they were on their way home when Angel realized she'd forgot her paycheck back at the coffee shop. As Hammond returned home, and was checking the Magnus Tech's satellite grid, he detected an incoming energy--a Void Portal. Using a modified tablet he'd designed(the prototype for the "Hero-Pad") he located the source. Upon tracking it down, he discovered a strange Alien Cube, known as the "Power Cube". Knowing it was safer with him, he took it back to the apartment he shared with Angel. As he looked at it closer, and it mysteriously activated, sending a strange energy into his body, and changing his hair and eyes a bright green. (See "Hero-Man Adventures" a Prequel Comic Series)

Now full of new powers, including lightning fast reflexes, minor telepathy/Hero-Senses, and increasing his IQ to well over 200, Hammond Magnus became Hero-Man. Now donning his traditional yellow mask and shirt, blue cape, and other wear. Little did he know of his true lineage. His father, Maximus Magnus was a descendant of the Ancient Kings of T'Roa. While his mother, Sybella was Atlantean, and herself the daughter of Lord Vidé. The Power Cube itself had been foretold in a collection of texts and scrolls discovered by Vidé, once known as Alexios Chronos, of Atlantis.

   As the events happened, Hammond soon discovered that Angel Stargazer had been kidnapped by several robotic drones, Neuro-Drones, that were under the command of a former member of H.E.R.O.: Neuro-Hawk. Shortly after receiving his powers he was attacked by a pair of Neuro-Hawk's drones. He was amazed by the newfound agility he had. Once donning the Hero-Costume, he set out to investigate, and was met by Agent 11 of the AGENCY. Agent 11, not aware of the truth, had believed the AGENCY files on Maximus and Sybella--that they'd been killed in action, years earlier by Neuro-Hawk.

After confronting Neuro-Hawk, Hero-Man was sent into "Void Haven", being saved from the potential Mental Prison that Neuro-Hawk had intended to send him to. Inside the Haven, Hammond met his parents, whom he believed had in fact killed by their former ally-turned-traitor. Maximus and Sybella told their son that it had been His destiny to become a Hero as well, and was soon sent back by Lord Vidé, His Grandfather and Master of Void, to finish off Neuro-Hawk.

In the final fight, Angel Stargazer, after being contacted telepathically by her Grandmother, Luxia, a Flamium Goddess, she became aware of her own true destiny--to become a Flamium-Incarnate, a heroine named "Firegazer". She managed to escape the Holding Chamber she had been placed in, and joined Hero-Man, her true love, in a fight against the kidnapper. Upon defeating Neuro-Hawk, by sending him into a mysterious Void Portal, Hero-Man and Angel were about to kiss, when the fire that now flowed throughout Angel's being wasn't easily controlled, and she burnt him. Out of fear, she knew what she had to do. And left her boyfriend out of fear for hurting him more, she left for the Void Haven herself, to learn and meditate, and to save herself. Mostly Hero-Man.

With his new powers, Hero-Man began his quest to defend and protect the City, which ultimately led to running across the brainwashed Dark assassin, Kid Shadow. Hero-Man was able to convince the duped Nasharian, and turned him onto the side of Good. Thus, Hero-Man and Sidekick Kid's Adventures together were now just starting. The two would team up as more foes began to surface, starting with the "Un-Good Gang", led by the former AGENCY Scientist, Dr. Julius Bellington/Servo. As the series progressed in the short-runtime Season 1, the storyline culminated in the first "Movie", which had been preempted by Episode 15, where Hero-Man was cornered by Servo, Pumpkin Head, and The Twins.

   Imprisoned in "The Fortress of Bad Things", where Servo kept him prisoner, Hero-Man was surprised to see Sidekick Kid show up--but in his Kid Shadow uniform. Even more surprising was Sidekick Kid seemed to be back under the control of Servo, until he convinced Sidekick Kid to take a randomly left-out bag of Taco Kingdom tacos...the result was Sidekick Kid regained himself, and released Hero-Man. The two allies then teamed up to take out the Un-Good Gang, and put an end to the evil that had plagued the City. As things seemed calm, a new threat arrived not too long after--the Repscallians of Nashar, led by Lord Skarn and Commander Cazz. Season 2's storyline took a lot more turns than expected, and as the Nasharian threat took place, Hero-Man was thrust back into his own past, as glimpses of Angel Stargazer came back to his thoughts. As Agent 58 delivered the flash drive with the H.E.R.O. files on it, he soon begun to dive into more on his past. Things began to get more cryptic and bizarre as began to feel a telepathic connection to Angel Stargazer, as she slowly reached her own destiny as Firegazer. It was one final shared vision, in which Angel warned Hero-Man about the things to come, including the return of the Darkness. A message similar to one he'd receive soon from a Tolarian pilot, Rahz Vin, who had escaped pursuit by a Nasharian ship. Recalling more now, Hero-Man was looking for more answers, when Sidekick Kid returned, with yet another warning.

    The final few hours in the Hero-Cave, Hero-Man, Sidekick Kid and Frostbite were surprised when another orbiting ship contacted them. It was an Octembrian craft, having likewise escaped. Commander Bralik of the Octembrian Rebel Fleet brought a static-filled message referring to Skarn's apparent defeat, having fled through the Portal System. This was further brought to light when Yash-Ti showed up. Wounded, and seeking refuge. He told them about Skarn's plan, but then nearly succumbed to a vicious bite from Cazz's venomous fangs. As Yash recovered, another unexpected visitor arrived--Mutaform. He, fully able to shape-shift, had a message and gift for Hammond Magnus. The message was that his parents were alive, news He knew already. The gift was an Atlantean Amulet that He'd remembered Sybella wearing. He felt an immediate connection to it and somehow his memory and connection to the amulet led to it opening a Void Portal. Mutaform explained it would lead them all to "where THEY needed to go", and Frostbite then Yash-Ti entered. Soon Sidekick Kid. The Hero-Man, saying a brief prayer to Angel Stargazer, knowing this was what she meant.

As Hero-Man, along with the others arrived through the portal, in the ruined and wrecked former House of Bellamere, on the world of Nashar, Hero-Man only waited for the next move. Knowing Angel was going to arrive soon, and the two would be reunited.

#### **Pico Bellamere/Sidekick Kid**

    Born in the 4th month in the season of "Remnant"(Winter), in the year 5349(Nasharian Calendar). Pico was born into the House of Bellamere on the 14th World of the Iglesian Order, Nashar. Nashar, being one of the most powerful worlds in the Iglesian Order, was ruled by the House of Bellamere, the lineagewas once an interplanetary order of worlds that are all governed by a representative government that brings equality, justice and peace throughout the Order. The House of Bellamere was once one of the most honored and respected Clans in the Order. His parents, the Monarchs of Nashar--father Erisan and mother Pralana--were the last in a line of Bellamere's that had ruled Nashar, and led to peace across the Order for many centuries.

Pico Bellamere had a passion for logical games and puzzles as a child. But as he grew, and grew more impulsive, Yash-Ti, one of his father's most trusted allies, and Captain of the Royal Guard, soon took Pico under his wing, and taught him to channel his energy into training. Yash sensed greatness in the young Pico, even at a young age, but had a hard time keeping him in check. It was during one training exercise in the Nasharian mountains that Pico earned the nickname "Kid", something Yash-Ti jokingly called him to get under his skin, but soon it became Yash's name for him. This sparked Pico to return the favor, and started calling Yash, "Old man".

When the truth about Yash-Ti's past was revealed by the Hetalians to the Monarchy, Pico was greatly saddened as Yash was sent to the mines for his prison sentence. As Yash was imprisoned, Pico began to hang out with a few of the kids who's families worked in the palace. One, an Octembrian boy named Guran, became one of his best friends. As he grew older, and rumors of the small uprise in the Repscallian camps became more known, Guran and his family took a transport ship back to Octembris. Pico's mother tried explaining the political issues, and that one day He himself would become Monarch, and have to take up what his father had to do as ruler of Nashar.

Upon the arrival of the Mercenary Hive to the Iglesian Order, Pico was rushed to safety as the contingent of Merc Drones, led by Arcad's Drone #0001, The Royal Guard contacted the Hetalians who had suffered first from the invading cyborgs, but combined with the Octembrians, the Order was saved. Yash-Ti, who had returned, saved Pico and his mother Pralana from nearly being captured by Drone #0001. Soon after, the Mercs returned to the world of T'Roa.

   As Pico matured, and the beginnings of the Repscallian Insurrection took shape, Pico once again began to train with Yash-Ti. When the outcast distant relative of the House of Bellamere, "Lord" Skarn found a series of catacombs leading to the Ancient Nasharian Reliquary, the Rebellion began. The attacks were brutal, and cost many lives, including Pico's parents. Being led by Yash-Ti, as they escaped to a desert encampment, Pico, who's left eye was greatly injured, he finished his training. Years passed as Pico waited for the tides to turn. As several camps of survivors who had scattered across the Iglesian Order prepared, Pico joined the battle, with Yash-Ti at his side. The combined forces from the neighboring worlds of Hetalia and Octembria, were more than enough to storm the Regal City, and Monarch Palace where Pico had lived his entire life within. Skarn, leading the former slave faction, now known as the **Repscallian Army**, knew all about the Destiny of Pico Bellamere, but since he claimed his own legacy, as a Bellamere himself, he had used the **Bolarian Staff**(one of the Staffs of Power) to summon the Ancient Powers of the House of Bellamere.

    Storming the Palace, Pico, Yash and hundreds of other Nasharians and Hetalians took out as many of Skarn's forces as they could. It was when Pico got separated from the rest, when he ran into Cazz, one of Skarn's ranked and more intelligent soldiers. Pico, using the Boomerang Yash had given him, and took out Cazz, damaging the snakes eye. Trying to find Skarn, he stumbled upon a horrific sight---Yash's scarf pinned to the wall by an axe blade. He soon looked down to see his mentor and friend on the corridor floor, dead(or nearly). Feeling the anger, sadness, and other emotions taking over, he rushed down the corridors, through piles of debris, and the fallen soldiers on both sides. He soon discovered Skarn using a Void Portal Generator. Skarn, who knew more than the enraged Bellamere, was about to open a Portal to Earth, when Pico attacked. The two battled, Skarn's Axe sliced into Pico's left arm, while Pico picked up a fallen Hetalian's ice-phazer and blasted Skarn in his chest, causing internal injuries. With his last bit of energy, Skarn activated the Portal Generator, and as Pico held his wounded arm, distracted briefly, Skarn fled. Pico, seeing Skarn disappearing into the generated Void portal gave chase, and arrived seconds later where Skarn had arrived. But with a slight gap in the space-time continuum, Skarn arrived on Earth a week earlier.

    As Pico arrived, badly injured, a pair of strange looking beings captured him, Ice-Guy and Captain Patches. Ice-Guy used a freezing gas to knock out the captured Nasharian. Awaking hours later, Pico tried to fight his way free. But his wounds were too great, and he was weak. Servo and Ice-Guy had used adapted Mercenary Tech to rebuild a new robotic arm for Pico, as well as replace his damaged eye. All Pico saw, hours later after being repaired was Servo. Pico was then sent into an Energy Chamber, and was enveloped by a Dark Energy that warped his mind, turning him into Kid Shadow, a Dark Assassin. Servo also replaced Pico's badly damaged left arm with a cybernetic implant, and equipped him with a Dark Cannon. Now powered by pure Dark energy, Kid Shadow was chosen by Servo to put his plan for world domination into play. The SOCIETY had warned Servo to be careful, but Servo's ego was too large to be swayed away. Upon one of Kid Shadow's early missions to the City, he ran across Hero-Man, and was convinced to drop the life of evil, rather easily, and showed his first signs of a soon-to-be love of Tacos and other Mexican Food. He is still haunted by his past, but does everything to prove to himself that the darkness is gone.

    As Season 2 progressed, Sidekick came to terms with the fact that Yash-Ti had not been who'd he'd believed him to be. But upon Yash-Ti breaking the implant that Lord Skarn had wired into his brain, the mentor of Pico Bellamere broke free, and made his way to the Hero-Cave. He then proved he was once again the same man that Sidekick Kid had known and trusted for most of his life. Side-by-side, the two readied as they entered the Void Portal that Hero-Man had opened in the Hero-Cave using the Atlantean Amulet. As they emerged on the other side, the emotion of seeing the green hued sky of Nashar gave a feeling of returning home to the lost Nasharian.

#### **Angel Stargazer/Firegazer**

    Born to Jason and Lashell Stargazer, Angel's life was never one of much peace, as her family was constantly on the run from a dark agency, who had targeted the Stargazer's due to their Mythical lineage. Following his family ancestry, Jason became a scholar of Ancient texts, focusing on those of the "Flamium Archives", due to his grandmother, Luxia, a Goddess who became a Flamium, through the sacrifice of her mortal body. Lashell, Angel's mother was a veterinarian who met Jason in College.

    Jason's father, Vezek, who was the half-mortal son of Luxia and a man from the 1920's, Edwin, had gone into hiding, with his wife, Sapphyria. The Stargazer family(surname derived from Edwin's admiration of Luxia gazing at the stars, and calling her His "Star-Gazer"), had tried to live a private life, and had little social lives. It was when Lashelle found out she was pregnant, with twins, that things changed.

Jason told his father, Vezek, now the Director of the AGENCY, the seemingly good news. But with Vezek keeping an eye out for members of the shadow group known as the **SOCIETY**. He was present at the birth of what he knew were Destined Twins--Angel and Shallisa. Shallisa was soon taken to the Realm of Light, as a Priestess(who had been corrupted by the returning darkness of Vilos). Angel had only feint memories of her twin, but once she moved with her parents to the City, she was given the most normal life Jason and Lashelle could give her.

It was years later, as she went through her school years, that she made a few friends and was never aware of her lineage. As she worked her way through college, at a coffee shop, she was handling a full order, and accidentally spilled a cup of hot cocoa on the laptop of a customer--Hammond Magnus. The apologies were endless, and once the two got to know each other, they realized how many interests they shared. After a few months dating, he asked her if she wanted to move into his apartment.

Together for years, all was as peaceful as could be, until the last day they spent together. It was a peaceful one, in the City's park. A quiet moment they had together, as they recalled how they'd met. Upon parting ways, Hammond took a quick trip to the local grocery store. Angel was heading to pick up her paycheck, she'd left back at work. That night she was captured by Neuro-Hawk's drones, she was held in a stasis chamber in Neuro-Hawk's lab, where she discovered she was in fact destined for much more than she could have ever imagined.

Neuro-Hawk knew this as well, as he had acquired the ancient texts pertaining to Luxia, from the Flamium Archives. His own greed for power became his eventual undoing, as Angel and Hammond Magnus(now Hero-Man) defeated the foe. As she knew she had to achieve her destiny, after being contacted by her great-grandmother, Luxia, Angel willingly sent herself to the Void Haven, a place outside of all time and space, where she spent years(in linear time, but from her perspective it was mere days or weeks) meditating and learning how to control her Flamium powers. Upon her time, she had several visions of Hammond Magnus/Hero-Man, including one of a future Christmas, and her future son, Max Magnus, named after Hammond's father, Maximus.

    When Lord Vidé arrived in Haven, Angel knew it was time to set forth on reuniting with Hammond Magnus, but also to fulfill her Destiny. Once she had full control over her Flamium Aura, she was given the name "Firegazer" by Lord Vidé--which would've been the Flamium name of Luxia, if Luxia hadn't sacrificed her own body to defeat Vilos. Angel, or Firegazer, engulfed herself in a "Fire Shield" and emerged in her all knew outfit, and was sent by Vidé to the world of Craxia.

Feeling a connection to the world's core element--Terrylium Carbonide--Firegazer was surprised when a pair of Craxian Merc Drones--part of the Harznian Imperial Alliance's contingent, keeping the innocent, and captive population at bay, with over 50,000 drones, as well as 6 Harznian ships in orbit--were awaiting, having detected the Void Portal. The crystal elements inside the "Temple of the Oracle" she arrived in, not only enhanced her inherited Flamium powers, but was what she needed to finally understand her Destiny as Firegazer. Vidé arrived shortly after she'd defeated one drone, and forced the second to retreat. He then opened a new portal, sending Firegazer to where she'd arrived in a mere matter of seconds, where her destiny and Hammond Magnus would await for their long-awaited reunion, on the world of Nashar. (More Soon)

#### **Gerish-Mo/Frostbite the Hetalian Dark-Sider**

    Born Gerish-Mo, on the darkside of the Iglesian Order world of Hetalia, in a frozen climate that never saw the sun, Gerish lived a rough life. Hetalia had lost it's rotation millennia ago, due to a shift in it's poles, and was stuck with half the world in constant darkness, icy and frozen, while the "Bright Side" was nearly uninhabitable due to extreme temperatures. The population had to adapt to the permanent darkness, and soon became a center for advanced technology in the Order. Gerish, along with his younger brother Melas-Mo, were two young recruits in the Galactic Exploration and Science Academy.

Gerish became a top pupil, achieving award after award. His parents, Dekkar and Rayla, who lived on Nashar were extremely proud of their son. Melas, knowing he wasn't cut out, quit the Academy and joined a Mining Corporation. It was when he was in his late teenage years when he met a fellow Dark-Sider, Taliana-Lin. She was a Botanist at the Academy, and helped Gerish pass a few courses he couldn't quite get through. But as the Order of Planets became the center of the first wave of Mercenary Drones, that had arrived via a Void Portal, the two fled the Academy, along with thousands of others. Soon, the Mercenaries turned the vast repository of technology into a Conversion Center--and those that were in the immediate vicinity were converted into a new army of Hetalian Mercs.

Gerish, Taliana, and hundreds of others tried their best to fight the Cyborg army--Mercenaries. But most were captured and turned into another wave of Drones. The lead drone, chosen as always, by the Mercenary Hive's creator, Arcad, was Drone #0001, a.k.a. Warper. Drone #0001 was as brutal on Hetalia as he led a relatively small number of drones, but that number doubled in just a few days as a Conversion Chamber was built. Gerish led a few dozen free Hetalians to destroy it, losing his uncle, and Taliana losing her father and mother.

The Mercenaries remained on Hetalia, but with limited resources and most of the original contingent of drones unable to adapt to the climate, Arcad commanded Drone #0001 to find another inhabitable world in the Iglesian Order--Nashar. Though the Mercs didn't stick around for long, Drone #0001 stayed, and led as many of the Hetalian Mercs as he could through the streets of the Nasharian Capitol, Regal City. As the insurrection on Nashar occured, Gerish's family was killed in Repscallian raids for minerals and highly-valuable fuel sources on Hetalia, causing the brash Dark-Sider to grow angrier with each attacking wave of pirates. He soon began to fight back, and spent the next several years becoming more and more brave and daring.

    Serving on an old Mining Frigate, he earned the moniker "Frostbite" for his "bitterly-cold" attitude, and no remorse for killing any and every Repscallian that crossed his path. He had even earned several prices on his head, as he'd killed over 50 Repscallians in a raid attack on Nashar. Joining the combined Nasharian and Hetalian forces upon the attempted retaking of the Monarchy Palace in the Regal City on Nashar, from Skarn who had since spread the Repscallians across the Iglesian Order. As Skarn fought and coerced Yash-Ti, blackmailing Yash with evidence that could wind up getting the former Captain of the Royal Guard executed, Frostbite fought through wave after wave of Repscallian soldiers.

The events sending Skarn, then Pico to Earth took place. Yash, who Pico had thought had been killed by Skarn, awoke and thought he'd deleted traces of the holographic evidence Skarn had tried to blackmail him with. But Frostbite was a computer expert, and recovered enough to potentially convict the murderous Captain. Frostbite, seeing the Portal System had been used, tried to go after, but then he saw Yash, along with several other Hetalian and Nasharians, and knew he'd have to wait to go after the murderer.

As he returned to Hetalia, he left his position as one of the Chief Technicians at the Academy, and joined a Freight Crew. During this time he travelled all over the Order, and even to the Tolarian System. Years passed, and after he had returned briefly to Hetalia, he and Taliana were wed. The celebration was brief, as the wedded couple were on a holiday to Feruhntia, when the Resort they were staying in was attacked by an Tolarian Attack Fleet, under the command of Lord Draco, who had become Overlord across the Tolarian System after capturing Prince Luhxon, the next-in-line for the Tolarian Crown. As the Resort patrons and staff fled, Taliana was caught in an explosion. Later, he discovered that Lord Skarn had given Draco the defensive grid keycodes, which normally kept the beautiful world protected. Taking no time, Frostbite took a shuttle back to Octembris, where Commander(then Ensign) Bralik met him. It was then that she told him of the treachery of Skarn, and that Yash-Ti had returned to Octembris as well. She knew of Yash's crimes, and helped Frostbite as best as she could. He then told her of what had happened to Skarn, as well as Pico Bellamere. Bralik led Frostbite to another Portal Generator, and he was able to trace Yash's remote coordinates. He entered the portal, and soon found himself on a new, alien world.

Arriving in the City, Frostbite set out to track down Yash-Ti, and bring the traitor to justice. He soon realized that Yash-Ti wasn't the only being from the Iglesian Order on Earth. Commander Cazz had sent Repscallian Drones to assist the traitorous Yash, who quickly fled, as he was summoned by Lord Skarn. Frostbite was quick to fight off the drones, when Hero-Man and Sidekick Kid spotted the Hetalian. After aiding in the defeat, the three made their introductions. It was then that Frostbite recognized who Sidekick Kid was--Pico Bellamere. He realized they all shared the same common goal--to defeat Skarn before the Repscallian leader could destroy Earth the same way he'd destroyed Nashar.

As Frostbite told more, he recalled the events that led, though told little to either of his new allies. He still fought for his "Pahrosa"(Beloved) Taliana, knowing that her death, as well as those closest to him, would not have been in vein. Fighting alongside the Heroes, joining their cause to take down Skarn and his clone army, he soon became aware of an apparent Earth Delicacy--Sushi Nachos. Frostbite soon joined the investigation, aiding them in tracking down Skarn, but only to find out alongside Hero-Man and Sidekick Kid that the technology Skarn had stolen had rendered his Fortress seemingly invisible. Doing all he could, he would be vital in helping identify the Tolarian Captain, Rahz Vin, who he also recognized as a former Mercenary Drone. Helping Hero-Man solve another mysterious connection to the AGENCY.

Soon after, as Commander Bralik of Octembria contacted them in the Hero-Cave, from an Octembrian ship orbiting Earth, Frostbite helped connect the frequency, and the message claiming Skarn's defeat was briefly celebrated. Feeling Sidekick Kid was falling into the treachery of Yash-Ti, who he still didn't trust, even after Yash had broken free of Skarn's control, he was quick to warn the last Bellamere of the Darkness. Mutaform appeared, gave Hero-Man the Atlantean Amulet, and once the Void Portal opened, he knew he had to return to Nashar, and hope one day he would return home. Yash, feeling regrets, extended an apology to Frostbite, who reciprocated, and smoothed some of the animosity between the two near-rivals. As he watched Yash enter the portal, he soon followed. Seeing the irradiated green sky of Nashar again, he knew his Destiny was nearing as well.

#### **Maxwell Magnus**

The son of Hammond Magnus and Angel Stargazer(born at the end of the eventual 3rd Season).
