Veridian (Earth-1)

Veridian was a mysterious villain that arrived in New Locktown, He attacked Brawler and he revealed that he was a clone of Nick created by ATLAS and Tristan Lopaz before his death. He fought Brawler and nearly killed him but stopped and brought him back to Atlas labs where they where going to experiment on Brawler but he was saved by the Young Keepers Berserker, Molten, Hex, Omega, Obsidian, and Fenris. During the fight Veridian was exposed to The Orion Force thanks to Brawler using it and Veridian since he was a clone of Brawler learned he could use it too. He escaped and stole a prototype suit from the lab and later on attacked the Keepers again now with him in control of his powers and was only stopped by the combined powers of Brawler and his time displaced daughter Diamond. After this battle he was transported across time and space and was forced to become a gladiator in The Slotherai Empire's arena of War. He fought for years on the planet but to the rest of the galaxy it was only a few months. He then led a revolt against the Slotherai but after they failed he had to fight a war against other aliens and after he defeated them he came back to Earth to help defeat Nemesis and his Conquers.
