Pariah

ORIGIN

Pariah, a brilliant scientist who discovered a weather-control system and "conquered all disease" from his Earth, discovered the existance of a multiuniverse and an antimatter universe.  He wanted to learn the secrets and origins of the Earth and would do anything to find them out.  He was warned against it, but was ignorant and only wanted knowledge.

He built an antimatter chamber to see how Earth was formed, and watched the beginning of time play before his eyes.  But by stepping into the antimatter chamber, he set off a chain reaction which destroyed his Universe.  He learned that positive matter and antimatter could not live together.  And as it happened, the world's most brilliant scientist destroyed all life except himself because he was in the anti-matter chamber.  The explosion reverberated throughout the antimatter universe and freed the Anti-Monitor.  When his positive matter universe was destroyed, the antimatter universe expanded to fill the void.  The Anti-Moniter realized that when positive matter universes die, he gains more power.

The Monitor found Pariah and used him to beat the Anti-Monitor.  Pariah could somehow sense destruction, and being immortalized, he was pulled to wherever the Anti-Monitor struck, showing the Monitor where his brother the Anti-Monitor was.  Pariah was than forced to watch as countless Earths from multiple universes were destroyed.  On one in paticular, Earth-6, Pariah forcefully rescued Lady Quark from the destruction of her universe, leaving her the sole survivor.

Of course as it turns out, it wasn't Pariah's fault the Anti-Monitor broke free.  With the aid of countless superheroes and villains, Pariah was witness to the success of Alexander Luthor's plan to save the Earth from the Anti-Monitor's battle.

Pariah's immortality was only effective with the original Multiverse so he was finally able to be killed, and he was ironically killed by Alexander Luthor.  However, death would prove to be temporary as Pariah was raised by a black power ring and became a Black Lantern.   How his resurrection as a Black Lantern may effect his eventual resurrection as a witness to the end of the universe remains to be seen.
