ALIAS(ES): The Weapon, Project Kr, Tommy Terror, Dean Danger, Superboy, Boy of Steel, Carl Krumbett, and Kon-El
BIRTHDAY: March 21st, 2010
BIRTHPLACE: Cadmus Labs
CURRENT: Mount Justice
FAMILY:

• Clark Kent “Brother” (Kryptonian DNA sample)
• Lex Luthor “Father” (Human DNA Sample)
• Match “Half-Brother” (Clone)
• Kara Zor-El "Cousin"
• Martha and Jonathan Kent "Adoptive-Parents"
etc.

ALLIANCE: The Team
RANK: Member of the Team
WEAPON: N/A
POWER:

• Kryptonian Physiology: As a partial genetic clone of Superman, he has most of the physical abilities of a Kryptonian who has absorbed the solar energy of a yellow sun. However, due to the human DNA supplied by Lex Luthor, he lacks the more advanced powers of flight and heat vision and presumably is incapable of ever acquiring them.
• Super Strength: This is one of Superboy's main abilities, allowing him to easily pick up or carry heavy objects.
• Super Leap: To compensate for his inability to fly like Superman, Superboy uses the super-strong muscles in his legs to jump incredible distances and heights.
• Invulnerability: Like Superman, Superboy is nearly indestructible. This invulnerability allows him to rush into dangerous scenes with little care for what might actually happen. Out of all his teammates, Superboy has taken the most punishment from their missions but has displayed no lasting injuries. He has been tackled through walls, shot with guns and explosives, had his feet dipped in lava, and has come out with no obvious physical damage. He has yet to be permanently injured, but he does experience pain.
• Super Hearing: Superboy can pick up the faintest of sounds over long distances, as well as high frequencies not audible to regular humans.
• Infrared vision: This ability allows Superboy to visually detect heat signatures, allowing him to easily see in the dark.

BLOOD TYPE: Half-Kryptonian | Half-Human
ORIENTATION: Heterosexual
PET:

• Wolf : Wolf is a large white wolf native to northern India. He was enhanced with Kobra-Venom by the Brain that made him stronger to the point that he could go toe-to-toe with Superboy. Like most Kobra-Venom subjects he has areas of muscle exposed by torn skin, but they are limited to the insides of his legs.
• Sphere (Super-Cycle): This piece of New Genesis technology is actually a "she" that bonded with Superboy. Some months later, Sphere's abilities were brought to light.

MENTOR: Clark Kent | Superman; Dinah Lance | Black Canary
SCARS AND MARKINGS: N/A
COLOR(S): Black and Red
UNIFORM: Nothing special, just a black short-sleeved shirt with Superman's logo (though it's sometimes interchanged with a longer-sleeved version) on it, blue jeans, black finger-less gloves, and brown or black combat boots with a large belt buckle.

DESCRIPTION: Connor stands at 6'6" in height and weighs 220 lbs in terms of weight. He has short black hair, blue eyes that vary in intensity depending on the lighting, and a muscular athletic build, though not bodybuilder huge due to his Kryptonian physiology. He is considered very handsome by most girls in his physiological age group and is typically seen with a frown on his face, rarely with a smile. However, with the passage of time like with all things, he has started to smile more and be open to generally anyone he bonds with. He also has more of a friendly-aura about him too, having gotten rid of his cold or 'stand-offish' demeanor that he normally displayed years before.

PLAY-BY: Ian Somerhalder.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Fear: Not being able to live up to the ideal of Superman, failing his comrades and friends, and losing them all together.

Desire: To up live to the ideal of Superman, continue to help others, and beat down evil wherever it rears its head.

HABITS: He loves food and eats a lot, but due to his fast metabolism he can't gain weight. He also has a tendency to close himself off from people every now and again when he's nervous, scared, or shy. Though whenever he realizes he's doing it he tends to apologize and has made conscious efforts to stop doing it, often having to remind himself now that he's mature and needs to act like it.
PET PEEVE: Anyone who threatens his friends, family, or the Earth, so usually bad guys.

STRENGTHS:
OPTIONAL
• Hand-to-hand combatant: While normally relying on his sheer strength, Superboy has developed highly proficient combat skills from his training under Black Canary. He is especially good at grappling and takedowns.
• Genomorph programming: While Superboy was being force grown, G-Gnomes telepathically fed him information in lieu of a traditional education.
• Multilingualism: Superboy can understand and speak many languages outside of English. He is at least fluent in Spanish, Atlantean, French, Korean, Arabic and Russian, among other languages.
• Encyclopedic knowledge: Likely due to the G-Gnomes, Superboy has an encyclopedic knowledge of World History.

WEAKNESSES:
OPTIONAL
• Kryptonite: Due to his Kryptonian DNA, Superboy is vulnerable to the unique radioactive properties of this green mineral.

TRAITS: During the first year after his retrieval from Cadmus Labs, Connor had severe anger issues. Having spent his first sixteen weeks of existence as a science project and mind-controlled puppet, Connor was defiant and did not like being told what to do or being dismissed. He often behaved with an air of extreme confidence, due in large part to the fact that he is Superman's genetic clone, and was created in order to replace him. This made him exceedingly overconfident in his abilities to the point that he ignored the help of others and impulsively threw himself into situations that he could handle on his own. Despite this confidence he worried about living up to his namesake, Superman.

Due to the fact he never really had the opportunity to interact with anyone until recently, Connor was somewhat anti-social and had a hard time getting along with others or showing his emotions. As such he constantly behaved in a confrontational manner to all people, even those who were attempting to be kind towards him. Even simple things like making amends with people who he had wronged was a tough concept for him to understand. However, he had learned quickly and has become not quite so silent, to the point of even carrying on a conversation without getting angry.

Since the defeat of the Reach and Vandal Savage, Connor has only continued to mature. He's much more mellowed out and in touch with his emotions than he's ever been. Rarely do things upset him as much as they use to and he approaches combat with a more tactical mindset in mind rather than running in and punching it to death. He's also started to display traits more in line with Clark's personality as well, such as his strong sense of justice, kindness as well as his remorse over his mistakes though he's kept Lex's educational learning, and his willingness to help others. He's also developed a love for food, not just junk food.

HISTORY: Connor's life began on March 21st, 2010 after he was discovered by Robin, Kid Flash (Wally West), and Aqualad during an investigative attempt to uncover what they were up to. This led to his release and him ultimately joining the team. After that he faced many trials as a member of the team. He didn't trust anyone at first and got angered at the slightest things. He was also quite impulsive and had a nag for punching things to death first, but as the months passed and he grew slightly older he began to mature as a young adult. He started training with Black Canary to develop his martial art skills and went on plenty of missions with the Team. During their escapades, they encountered many villains such as Vandal Savage, The Reach, the Light, Amazo, Ivo, the Injustice League, and so on. It didn't culminate to an end till the Reach invaded Earth and attempted to bring about the apocalypse.

There, he fought the Reach and the League of Shadows agents with assistance from the Team. At the same time, the Justice League had been called before a court to stand trial after a mission went haywire, only for it to later be revealed that they had been framed. However, even without the Justice League the Team managed to put an end of the Reach's efforts and got them off of planet Earth. They also prevented Darkseid's invasion of the earth and destroyed the Light, or so was originally believed once they reemerged years later stronger than ever.

However, before their reemergence Connor had retired from the team after a few months. He decided he wanted to give living a normal life a try outside of constant crime fighting. So he applied to Metropolis University shortly after graduating from the high school he attended alongside Miss Martian and Robin. He also made an attempt to travel across the world during the summer when he was off from college to help build his social skills as well as his maturity. A year later, Connor had grown to miss the team and all of the interactions he shared with them as well all of the butt kicking he did, so he got his membership reinstated and currently provides assistance to the Team and the Justice League whenever they need him.

RP SAMPLE:

Man, evil never stopped did it? He had stopped counting how many times they had invaded either one of Cadmus secret bases or one of the Light's bases scattered across the world. Everywhere they went they found something or the other related to the cloning of super-powered beings. It reminded him too much of his time at Cadmus labs or when he uncovered the fact that they were continuing the cloning of Superman in secret. Most of these clones had no idea what was going on and it infuriated him. Additionally, lots of times most of them were just thrown to the wayside if they didn't turn out perfect or was mind-controlled to do the Light's dirty work. They had no right to be doing that.

Though as time progressed, Connor was unsure sometimes if they would be able to stop them. I mean, every time they got close they just found themselves digging deeper into the rabbit hole. It was obvious that this had been going on for several years underneath their nose and Connor couldn't help but wonder just how many of these beings they had in secret. It could lead to a massive cataclysmic war between themselves and these beings, and Connor didn't want that. He couldn't imagine how many of these beings would die uselessly.

And that wasn't the kind of life they deserved to live. As a result, Connor had set out on a personal vendetta while working with the Team to put an end to the Light's plan for he didn't want to see anyone get unnecessarily hurt nor for any clones to submit to the life he originally had.
