Earth 489: Teddy Knight

(A rarity for me to do this, but it's necessary, trigger warning, there's some mild mention of rape in this characters bio)

Born Kyle Theo Nimbus, Teddy Knight is the result of a non-consensual encounter between Jack Knight, the second Starman, and Nash Nimbus, the second Mist. His mother intended to raise him to be a villain, all while taunting his father about his existence. But thankfully it was not meant to be. In a tragic turn of events, Nash was murdered by her own father, her dying moments spent giving Jack their son. Renamed Kyle Theo Knight, the young boy would grow up with his father and step mother, as well as a half sister.

Teddy lived a happy life, though he knew of his maternal origins and family. He worried that his bloodline would corrupt him, turn him into what his mother wished for him to be. It was only when a third Mist, one unaware of the baggage the name once held, came to be. This young "Andie Murphy", a member of the Outsiders, inspired Teddy, gave him the courage to use his powers for good. With the Cosmic Rod belonging to Stargirl, and his grandfather's Gravity Rod long destroyed and the blueprints gone, when the time came, Teddy became the fourth person to call himself Mist, and the second to carry the name into the light.

Teddy joined the third iteration of The Justice Society, where he would meet Courtney Whitmore's successor, her sister Patricia Dugan. Although initially hostile towards her - unintentionally so, as he had some latent dislike for her using the Cosmic Rod - the two grew close and through time, their relationship took a turn for the better. With some help from another time period, Teddy and Patricia rebuilt the Gravity Rod and he became the next Starman.

Notes

Teddy was a bit bare bones when I first decided to add him. I admittedly hadn't actually known much about him or his history at first, but his appearance on the new JSA series inspired me to explore him more in depth. @lesbianbrainwave had some great posts that helped me along, mostly with me deciding to make him Starman rather then sticking with Mist, as I originally intended.

Teddy and Patricia was a crack ship that just came to me all of the sudden. The idea of two familial legacies connected to the stars converging together was appealing to me, and after realizing they were similarly aged, I just went ahead with it.

Andie Murphy is from Young Justice. Originally, I wasn't going to add her, but when I found that she was semi-popularly shipped with Livewire, I couldn't resist. I thought she would be a nice segway from all the horribleness that is the first two users of the Mist name.

I mean, he lost his dad, he lost his brother, you know, he lost everything. And I think what he's got in San Francisco is dear, dear, dear to him, and I think he's content. || Jack Knight retired, Helena. He's raising a family. He has a son. || He's somewhere where there's good light, good north light for painting, as when we left him he had become an artist.

Ruminations on Jack Knight's present day.
