The Dark Masters: The Sinestro Corps War

Prologue: Prisoners of the Green Lantern Corps

Location: The Sciencells, Oa. Time and Date: Unknown

Our story begins in and at Oa space sector 0 in the Sciencells was where they keep every criminal the Green Lantern Corps captures. In the Sciencells were a group of the greatest evil beings that existed but also in the Sciencells there was… Music?

In one of the cells a pipe organ was being played, the one playing was human but certainly didn't look human at all. He appears to be a humanoid skeleton that resembles an old man of sorts. He has an oddly shaped skull; not resembling a human's but it is rather long and pointed in some places, notably on the bottom jaw. There being an extra bone attached to his forehead resembling eyebrows. There are two other bones placed on the sides of his upper jaw which protrude out to the sides. These two bones can rise up and down, mainly capable of allowing him to portray facial expressions. His nostrils are snake-like and eyes are a glowing red. He also wears a glass monocle over his right eye.

What is also strange is what he is wearing; a suit that one might find like a Victoria-era aristocrat's. His most distinctive clothes are a blue top hat which slumps over at the back. It had a purple piece of cloth wrapped around the bottom of the brim. He is also wearing a blue overcoat with a pointed collar and a rather jagged and bony appearance to match his skeletal appearance. The overcoat comes with shoulderpads resembling silver skulls and yellow rings around the end of the sleeves. Under the overcoat, there is a green shirt with a pointed collar, although this could actually be his collar bone. His ribcage is showing, and brown belt holding up his trousers, the buckle being a skull similar to the overcoat's shoulderpads. They are long light blue trousers with purple diamond patterns at the bottom. He wears brown shoes, shaped like coffins. His name is Lawrence Fredrickson but many do and have called him and know him as Lord Fear.

Next to his cell is what can be described as a creature that looked like a fat frog attached to a long stick. He had red glowing eyes and had small arms that held a glass orb above his head. He moved with the music and stretched his frog like legs. His name is Staff Head, Lord Fear's friend and trusted advisor.

"Such blood curdling music my lord and to think that you never took one lesson." Staff Head complemented in an Australian accent.

"You flatter me, my loyal staff." Lord Fear stated pleased he looked over to the clock and saw that it was 3:00 O'clock. It made Lord Fear grin, he then had his arm stretch out of his cell and into Staff Head's once they made contact Staff Head's orb glowed dark and opened a black fog covering them both, sending their minds elsewhere.


Location: Qward, the Antimatter Universe. Time and Date: Unknown

In the confines of Qward there is a middle-aged man with short hair and receding hairlines and a long, pointed mustache. His skin is in an odd color, but the most impressive thing about him is his eyes. They bled fear, this is Thaal Sinestro of Space Sector 1417. He was the greatest Green Lantern of all, but he became the only one that was ejected from the Corps for abusing his ring to take over his planet Korugar. Ever sense he has been an enemy to the Corps and to Hal Jordan. He was waiting for two new allies to join his own army, his own Corps which he would use to take over the Universe and bring it to Order.

In a flash Lord Fear and Staff Head appear behind Sinestro, and then a poof of smoke came a being that is wearing a black ninja suit that some part it are black leather, on his shoulder are purple scrolls used as shoulderpads, his eyes red and two katanas sheathed on his back. This is Onikage also known as the Devil Ninja, he is a prisoner of Oa and Lord Fear's ally.

Onikage and Lord Fear bowed in respect to Sinestro, Staff Head then asks "Mr. Sinestro when are we going to be freed from that prison?"

Sinestro laughs "Soon Staff Head, soon we will free you will be free and so will the others that can install great fear."

"How goes the Anti-Monitor's rebirth?" Lord Fear asks

"His rebirth is almost complete" Sinestro answers "The Corps is almost ready, what about you?"

"We are ready, just make sure your team has yellow rings for us and everything will go off without a hitch." Lord Fear reports

Sinestro smirks "Good now go." He orders

Lord Fear, Staff Head and Onikage all disappear leaving Sinestro alone at Qward.


Lord Fear regains consciousness finding himself back in his cell and Voz just crossed his cell.

Lord Fear decided to take this as a chance and ask "Excuse me Warden, but could you give allow me a request" Voz stops and looks at Lord Fear

"And what is the request?" Voz ask

"I would like to have a small party with my team mates and nobody else." Lord Fear states

"Is that it?"

"Hmm I think so"

"I'll think about it Fear, but you're going have to wait awhile. I have told you how these things work with the Guardians, remember how long it took to get your organ?" Voz asks

"I understand Warden Voz, I understand" Lord Fear stated


In another part of the Sciencells a man judging by his appearance, is tall and muscular with a well built body, a brown beard and brown hair, with a black fur hat on his head. He is wearing a red military suit which has a white circle with a red star in the middle. He also wore a pair of goggles over his eyes. His name is Sergei Scrots also known as Red Star, he was a hero that turned bad after the Soviet Union collapsed and lost everything blaming America for his misfortune.

He has powers that make him quite special, able to make red constructs but with one drawback he has a weakness due to Ultra-Violet Radiation. For if he is exposed to a high amount of it he will lose of all his energy and power. He is in a cell that keeps him surrounded by the stuff making him inable to escape from his 'special cell'. Also next to him is a man who wears a white lab coat worn over green scrubs, a stethoscope hanging from his neck and a pair of large spiral-patterned goggles over his eyes. He is Dr. Insano, your typical mad Scientist but his twist is that most of the stuff he makes is better than anyone else. He was playing cards against his cellmate his robot Neutro, who's basically been disabled from doing most of his functions.

"Do you have any 5s' Neutro?" Dr. Insano asks

"Go fish" Neutro replies

Dr. Insano picks a card up from the deck and puts it in his hand

"Do you have any kings' Doctor?"

Dr. Insano growls and gives Neutro a king of spades, Neutro puts the pair on his side.

"Neutro are you using your X-Ray vision to cheat?" Dr. Insano asked

"Uh no…" Neutro replies looking at Dr. Insano


In yet another part of the Sciencells there are four cells each one containing a different being, they are a part of the same team. They are known as the Carnival of Doom, Lord Fear's gang from right to left; the first one being Ms. Illusion is a woman who appears to be in her late twenties or early thirties. She has hazel-colored eyes and pale skin. On her head is a large silver helmet that looks like a green-eyed spider which covers Ms. Illusion's hair. She is wearing a catsuit of sorts her collarbone and part of her chest are exposed. The top part of the suit is dark red in color, with brown curved "tails" at the bottom of the shirt around the waistline. Her legs appear to be covered in tights, which are neon-colored (white, orange, yellow, green) and covered in a black webbing pattern.

The next one is the Googler who has an appearance as a jester or clown, with a humanoid appearance but to some extent, he is built like a reptile. The species is brought into question, due to the presence of a tail. He wears a metal mask that covers the top part of his face and head, only showing his yellow eyes. He has a large bottom jaw, jagged teeth, a small purple tongue and green lips. The mask features two jester headdresses, one red and the other blue, with jingling bells attached to them. He wears a grubby yellow short-sleeved top and three belts strapped around his waist, give it a loosened straitjacket look. He also wears blue trousers with frilly yellow ends. He also wears identically stripped socks and long sleeves, colored in green and purple. There is a similar cloth covering his tail, another bell attached to the tip. His footwear are large jester shoes, which are brown in color, and curled at the end, more bells attached to the tips. Two identical sock puppets, aside from their different color schemes, cover his hands. His most notable feature is the spiked shell attached to his back; it is unknown if this is actually a part of his body or not. Currently Googler is wrapped up in the shell like a ball, there is an eyehole in it allowing him to see.

After him we have Anvil who is a large anthropomorphic grey-skinned rhinoceros, and the tallest person of the Carnival of Doom when standing at full height, although he spends most of the time on all fours. He has a relatively small head compared to his huge, muscular body, likely due to his lack of brain power. He has small black eyes, two horns on his snout and two more protruding from behind his ears. He wears a short-sleeved orange and black shirt with a dark green collar, brown trousers stitched up at the ends with black threads, and another green collar around his waist. On his left arm he wears a black wristband. He has a huge four-fingered left hand, with thick yellow nails. On his right arm, he has a large iron anvil replacing his hand, a large wooden barrel connects the anvil to his right arm and a trashcan lid is placed on his right shoulder; kind of like his arm is made of different parts.

And last but not least we have Boarface Anvil's best friend and he resembles a humanoid wild boar. He has an overlarge, dark brown fur covered head with a mane and small pointed ears, red eyes that have yellow and black irises, a pink snout with yellow tusks protruding from each side and a large mouth filled with small crooked teeth and a massive tongue. He has a rotund body with large muscular arms with fat fingered hands on the end. He has fat stumpy legs with cloven feet. He wears a red and yellow striped vest, a brown coat and muddy jeans that have been stitched back together. Boarface has a tiny, curled silver tail poking out of the back of his jeans which resembles a bed spring. His jeans are held up by a belt with a silver skull shape on the buckle similar to that of Lord Fear's shoulder pads. Oh and one tip you don't want to call him a pig, trust me you will regret it.


Our final look around the Oa is one last place another part of the Sciencells but this one is quite different. This creature is evil, and is the Dark Beast of Greed this creature is known as The Globbor. The Globbor has a humanoid body made of dark blue ooze, he has claw, his head is in an odd shape, and is yellow in color also his eyes are black. He has the power to absorb energy and the powers of others. The catch is that he also gains a physical characteristic like for example if he absorbs the powers of Superman his body will shift and change gaining his own version of the Superman Costume. His weakness is that if he is exposed to direct sunlight he will turn to stone. In his cell he has been kept in direct sunlight which is having him remain in his statue like state, unable to move or speak or even feast. His hunger was unbelievable by this point, he was starving and he needed to feast.


Amongst this all Lord Fear takes out a Golden Locket and opens it, inside of it is an old Black and White photo of a woman in an old wedding dress and in the other part of it is a picture of a 15 year old girl that is wearing black shoes, an Orange Shirt that that had black cobwebs decorating it, long black hair and green eyes. Lord Fear looked at the two pictures, his face having a sad expression. He closed the locket and puts into his pocket, he looks at his cell. Thinking 'Soon I will see you again Felicia, and then we will bring her back, we will bring you back Cynthia. Just like I promised you Cynthia, my lovely earthbound angel.'

AN: Well there goes a story idea I have been struggling for awhile, now then this is a prologue that serves to introduce our characters. These characters are OCs I have made, and yes I am aware of the fact there is a good Red Star but there was two Dr. Lights so why not. If there any questions leave me in your review. Things will get moving in the next installment of the story trust me. This is Storyteller222 signing off, later people.
