Ulrich Stern

Brainiac's invasion awoke something inside me, something that I never knew I had. A power that scared the hell out me and my friends. My parents, however, weren't fazed by this sudden power, in fact, they had been dreading this day for years. As it turns out, they weren't my parents at all, at least not my biological ones anyway. As it turns out, they found me in a downed spaceship in the countryside and took me in before the government arrived on the scene. They wanted to tell that I wasn't human for so long, but after Superman's Regime began, they were afraid that I would either try to fight him or join him.

Rather than try to go on a quest to find my real parents, I used these powers to help the other heroes to fight back against Brainiac's army and eventually defeat Brainiac himself. after I ended that monster's attack, Superman tried to get me to join his side in an attempt to make a new Regime. I wasn't hot on the idea of putting that bastard back in power, but everything changed when he released Zod out of the Phantom Zone to back him up, or as I soon came to know the General as: my father.

According to Zod, I was birthed in the Phantom Zone by my biological mother, Ursa, before being put on a ship that was designed to pass through the barriers between this world the Phantom Zone where I would not only be the first solider for their invasion, but also have my ship be a beacon that would allow Zod and the other prisoners escape into our world. Zod wanted me to join his army and help him build a new Krypton on Earth, to which I responded with a fist to his jaw. It goes without saying that dear ol' dad didn't like my rebellious streak and decided to have my head crushed and eventually replace me with a more obedient child.

We beat the shit out of each other until I finally put my fist through his face. He may have been my father by birth, but I wasn't about to let him destroy the earth like Brainiac wanted to. With Zod dead, his followers surrendered without a fight, seeing who was truly the better fight. They, along with Superman and his Regime, were put back into the Phantom Zone. After that ordeal was over with, Batman offered me a spot on his Justice League, but I refused. I had enough of these costumed guys and their politics, but on the other hand, I couldn't ignore who I was either. So, my friends I decided to create our own team to protect our side of the world. It was easy to transfer the weapons from Lyoko to Earth, and soon enough, our new team was created.

I was born Val-Zod of Krypton, but that's not who I am.
