Talents: Martial Arts, vehicles
Contacts: Hal Jordan, Teen Titans, Omega Men

First Appearance: Green Lantern Vol. 2 #141 (June 1981)
Background: One of the most honored freedom fighters of his time, Pren was born to farmers on the planet Euphorix in the Vegan System. A mutant, he developed psionic powers that made him an outcast of his people. A woodwitch clan took Pren under their protection and trained him until he became their Primus - The One Who Leads. Primus was invited to the Euphorix Royal Palace Guard, where he met Kalista, his future wife. Here, Primus conceived his plan for a united force to oppose the tyrant Citadel, a force comprised of rebels drawn from every Vegan species - the Omega Men. As leader of the Omega Men, Primus had a long and impressive career, fighting the Citadel as well as Harry Hokum, Lobo, the Psions and the Spider Guild. For a while, Primus' mind merged with a computer intelligence named Artin, who eventually was transferred to a separate robot body.

Primus finally sacrificed his life in battle with the Alien Alliance (I) during their Invasion of Earth.

Primus is usually level headed and intelligent. If he has a fault, it is that he is sometimes a bit indecisive.

First Appearance: The Witching Hour Vol. 1 #13 (March 1971)
Background: Billions of years ago, on one of the first planets in our universe to support life, a crew of human-like immortals (who would later become the Guardians of the Universe) increased their store of knowledge by studying and experimenting with animal specimens, such as the small green lizards they captured outside their cities. Thus was begun the evolution of the creatures called Psions. Millions of years afterward, the Psions were sufficiently evolved to take residence in the near-Indestructible cities of their creators, and began to puzzle out the strange machinery and tools the immortals had left behind. Raising themselves from savagery to civilization through this study, the Psions dedicated themselves to intense experimentation, suppressing other aspects of their nature until their minds divided into different levels, with all emotion and bodily functions relegated to the control of a lower brain unremembered by their conscious minds. The Guardians of the Universe learned of this evolution and were displeased. They banished the Psions to a distant space-sector. Humiliated, the Psions took residence on a world on their sector near the Vegan star-system, and subsequently used its life-forms as the focal point of their evolutionary experiments. One early Psion laboratory played a crucial role in Vegan history. The results of the mating between the Goddess X'Hal and the fearsome Branx warrior resulted in the birth of the Citadel Empire, an empire which at one time extended its control over all twenty-five Vegan planets. . The First Citadelian forcibly ejected his Psion allies (making war even on them) and used their machines to clone himself, creating the Citadel race- so the Citadel Empire grew, overtaking world after world, and terrorizing those they could not conquer. This made the Psions ancient alien enemies of the Citadel. They would remain enemies for centuries. Much later, an evil version of Raven tried to destroy her good self (which lay dormant in the body of Starfire). To ferret out Starfire, evil Raven incited a conflict in the Vegan star system. The attack by the Psions lead to the core of Tamaran imploding, taking the entire planet and whoever remained on it with it. As a result, Tamaran was destroyed. The H'San Natall is a very powerful and dangerous race, bent on conquering wherever they can. Their sphere of conquered planets numbered in the thousands. To this end, they use all sorts of tactics in invasion - including bio-engineering their own warriors. Years ago, the H'San Natall enslaved a group of Psion scientists. The Psions performed a number of experiments, including bioengineering the bounty hunter known as Jugular. Seventeen years ago, the H'San Natall abducted nine women - which the Psion scientists experimented on. Each were brought aboard a ship and subjected to scientific testing and impregnation. All but one of these women (Prysm's mother, who would later become Queen) were released with their memories wiped clean. Nine months later, on June 21st, the H'San Natall/human hybrids were born. These children were a new breed of sleeper agents. Their powers lay dormant until their sixteenth birthdays. Nine children were meant to be a new breed of sleeper agents. Their powers lay dormant until their sixteenth birthdays. The agents included members of the Teen Titans: Risk, Argent, Joto, Prysm, and Fringe. The Psions maintain vast floating laboratories where studies continue. Despite long years of research, the Psions have learned little about themselves. Whenever they get too close to the truth, It proves so painful that it must be suppressed. The Psions are locked in an endless cycle of self-deception, yet their cold compulsions and advanced science make them some of the deadliest creatures in the universe. Growing as a fierce race of people in the Vegan System, the Psions kidnapped the Okaaran X'Hal and mated her with a fearsome, brutal Branx warrior. From this came the birth of two children: a horribly mutated being who became the first Citadelian, and the human child, Lambien. The Psions tried to mate X'Hal a second time, but she slew the Branx warrior even as he killed her. The Psions took her lifeless body and, in a vicious experiment, converted her into a being of pure energy. At the moment, she became the goddess X'Hal; Lambien shared much of her power and later metamorphosed into the near-God Auron. X'hal's other son, the being who had become the first Citadelian, joined with his creators, the lizard-scientist Psions, and together they conquered Vega's twenty-five worlds before the sole Citadelian turned on his allies and claimed power for himself alone. The First Citadelian forcibly ejected his Psion allies (making war even on them) and used their machines to clone himself, creating the Citadel race-but the clones were imperfect and retarded. The First Citadelian directed them in concert with his other armies, and so the Citadel Empire grew, overtaking world after world, and terrorizing those they could not conquer. This made the Psions ancient alien enemies of the Citadel. They would remain enemies for centuries. The Citadelians themselves were demented madmen who held power through brute force and fear. From the barren, rocky world of Changralyn to the tropical paradise of Tamaran, nothing slipped through their iron grip. Still, their time would be limited and the great Citadel empire would one day crumble, just as the results of the great Citadel Wars would one day reach the shores of Earth and bring with it one of our most powerful heroines, Starfire. Though the back of the empire was broken, but many of the weapons, machines, and warriors remained. The Citadelians remain a brutal, conquering force in the galaxy. Outside the Vegan system, the Psions maintain vast floating laboratories where studies continue. In recent times, they took part in the Dominators' Invasion of Earth. Collaborating with the H'San Natall, they were also responsible for a group of Earth/H'San Natall crossbreeds, who later became known as the Teen Titans (II). Despite long years of research, the Psions know little about themselves. Whenever they get close to the truth, it becomes so painful that it must be suppressed. The Psions are locked in an endless cycle of self-deception. Yet their cold compulsions and advanced science make them some of the deadliest creatures in the universe.
