When life started

Gnarrks life started thousands of years ago. He was a 19 year old cave man who enjoyed watching the night sky and the lights in the sky. One night, a comet crashed before him, imbedding a chunk of crystal into his chest. Somehow this caused a transformation in him expanding his mind and his understanding of what went on around him. Soon a volcano erupted and the shard protected him by encasing him in a chunk of ice. Centuries passed, and Gnarrk remained in his ice tomb.

During this time his mind still worked and he dreamed of a better world. He could cure diseases and wanted to use them to help people.

While still encased in the ice he sent psychic flashes out to someone and Lilith found them and followed them. Through the bond they held Lilith even though being involved with Dove still found a attraction to the gentle soul Gnarrk had and helped in his escape from his ice cell. And joined the Teen Titans.

Shortened Life

It was found that Gnarrk was dying and scientists from STAR Labs wanted to dissect him but the Titans wouldn't allow it. Lilith used her powers to establish a mental rapport with Gnarrk. During that time, she found out his true origins and his noble intentions. The two formed a unbreakable bond but their love was short lived.

Gnarrk was put on life support for over a year, but finally he succumbed to his ailment and died. When the scientist did an autopsy they found that the shard in his chest had faded away when he died, its powers went with him.

Powers and abilities

Being a Cro-Magnon, Gnarrk possesses greater strength, dexterity and endurance. When a comet imbedded a chunk of crystal into his chest, it caused a transformation in Gnarrk - it expanded his mind, and his understanding. The full range of his expanded mental abilities were uncatalogued.
