Orion
Species: New God
Enemies: Darkseid & Apokalips
Orion is the son of Darkseid, so one would have naturally assumed he’d follow in his father’s footsteps. However, he is one of Darkseid’s three sons. Thus, as a child, he was traded to New Genesis’ leader, the Highfather, for Highfather’s son, Scott Free. The idea was that by trading sons, a peace pact could be reached between New Genesis and Apokolips. Highfather lovingly taught Orion how to control his rage and learn how to focus it for good. Orion grew to love New Genesis, not just for how the Highfather treated and helped him…but also how others did the same.
The New Gods were also a huge asset, particularly Lightray, who helped Orion control his dark powers. That led to Orion becoming a top-tier warrior and hero. His impressive fighting skill and stamina make him a top threat. Yet his relentless and ruthless nature on top of this makes him almost impossible to stop. Of course, Orion’s enemies tend to be anyone who threatens New Genesis but the top enemy on his list is his father. Due to being Darkseid’s son with training from Highfather, Orion has become one of the most powerful galactic characters in DC Comics.
