Norrin Radd/Silver Surfer:
In his travels through the galaxy, Gah Lak Tus gained a power to manipulate some matter and energy. An astronomer of the planet Zenn-La, Norrin Radd found an anomaly near their planet. Further investigation led to his discovering that it appeared to be a large humanoid being. Radd's people were great space explorers and had great technology. Watching in horror as a planet nearby died, Norrin realized that this thing fed off of planets. The destruction of a nearby planet caused calamity on his own as the gravity shifted. Thinking the thing was humanoid, he left to stop it, not believing there was any time to tell anyone. Radd left in an orbital ship and pushed it to its limit, reaching Gah Lak Tus. Gah Lak Tus, recognizing there was no weaponry aboard the ship, translated his energy into radio waves and contacted the young man.
Radd, frightened and surprised, but determined to do something, spoke with the being. Figuring out what the being needed, he offered his services, with his great knowledge of the planets and solar systems of the galaxy he could show Gah Lak Tus where to go. Gah Lak Tus, tired of wandering around needlessly, accepted. In return, he was to leave the planet alone, which he did.
However, the damage was done and Zenn-La was destroyed, as Gah Lak Tus fed off the energy of the sun. Broken, Norrin didn't care if he escaped, and in fact, would have died from the explosive/implosive happenings if not for Gah Lak Tus. He would not lose his new searcher so easily. To protect Radd, he manipulated his matter and energy into that of a Silver Searcher. His organs hardened into diamond and his skin was turned into liquid mercury.
Gah Lak Tus's Silver Searcher spent many months trying to find appropiate solar systems with little to no life, especially sentient life. However, these worlds did not hold the energy of worlds with sentient life, they contained the necessary components that fed Gah Lak Tus appropriately. Gah Lak Tus became angry and made the Silver Searcher find him planets worth feeding upon. When Radd refused, GLT, through the connection took all the information from his mind and cast him into oblivion. But, amazingly, Radd managed to survive.
Now, he travels through space, trying to keep one step ahead of GLT, he warns planets to evacuate before the destroyer of worlds arrives, he is a Herald of doom.
Without GLT, his powers are limited. He can't stay very near the average life form for his presence can be toxic.
He does not require food, but absorbs and processes energy, he does not need to breathe. He can withstand high pressures and negative pressures. He has limited energy manipulation and can project force fields or emit energy blasts. He can also become intangible with concentration. To move through space or levitate he needs an oblong disc made of a similar living mercury as his skin, his "surfboard."
Pyreus Kril/Firelord: Kril was a pyrokinetic humanoid from Xandar. At first, he had trouble using his abilities, and little control, but time in the military's special forces allowed him to train his abilities. However, with many battles being fought in space, he had little to do and grew frustrated. Eventually, after hearing of a being called the Silver Searcher being transmuted by Gah Lak Tus, he went in search of him. In exchange for being given greater power and the ability to use his powers in space, he would become a Herald of GLT. Unlike Radd, Firelord has little concern for other beings, deeming them deserving of their fate if they are too weak to fight GLT or even evacuate their planets.
He can survive in space, does not need to breathe or eat as he is fed energy by GLT. He has a "stellar fire" or "cosmic flame" which burns even in a vacuum such as space. Via his fiery staff, he can travel at speeds faster than light to find GLT a planet/solar system to feed on.
Nova Corps
-A Xandarian group of enforcers, Novas are given the ability to protect their home planets. Called, Nova Corps Centurions, or Nova, for short, these beings are powered by the Nova Force, an energy from the remnants Xandarian homeworld.
-A small measure of the Nova Force gives them\m superhuman powers including flight, superhuman strength, speed, and durability, as well as the power to absorb energy directed against them and release it as gravimetric pulses and beams, either from specific parts of their body or from their entire body.
-Novas also receive a link to the WorldMind, giving them access to records, strategies, and advice of generations.
-Novas are also issued a standard Centurion uniform that allows them to conform to their bodies and needs, including space survival (if the Nova Force is flowing through the body).designed to accommodate his powers without being damaged by them. The uniform is highly resistant to damage, including outer space conditions, and is airtight. The helmet contains a plexiglass-like plate that can be lowered to cover the lower face by cybernetic command, thereby making the helmet airtight; the helmet is connected to an oxygen supply concealed within the uniform. In addition, the uniform has a built-in life support function that can sustain Novas under the most extreme environmental conditions, including acting as a life-support suit by locking off the mouth and eyes of the helmet. The helmet contains radio circuitry enabling Novas to pick up radio transmissions, monitor transmissions, telescopic sights, night vision sensors, and heat imaging sensors, as well as overlay a visual heads-up display for tracking energy signatures. Novas' helmets have a rigid construction and shape when worn, but becomes as malleable as cloth when it is not, allowing Novas' to hide it in their civilian clothes when desired.
-Nova's also gain access to special gates that let them travel at highspeed through vast distances of space, traveling to other planets or galaxies in minutes.
Novas are chosen for their purity of heart and compassion for other beings. They must also have a trace of the Xandarian bloodline to become a Nova.
Every generaton, or until the previous one is deceased, a Nova-Prime is selected. This Nova is considered the highest ranking and the best of the Centurions.
When a threat supercedes all others, the Nova Force is is drained from all Novas, but one, the SuperNova. This is to ensure victory for that Nova, but the victory comes at great cost to other Novas, as they may lose their ability to survive in space or battle.
Some Novas have secret identities others are public knowledge.
Nova/Richard Rider:
This is not this universe's Rider. During an exceptionally intense battle Nova 0:0, tried to flee through a gate, and ended up in this universe/dimension. Upon meeting Richard Rider, he was disgusted. 0:0 was older, and he felt, wiser than this universe's Rider, so 0:0 managed to defeat him in battle and trap him in suspended animation. He explained to Rider that his world, his whole universe was destroyed because he acted as Rider did, and was too weak and he refused to let that happen here. He managed to trick the WorldMind because his DNA is exactly the same as Rider, and explained that he aged while trapped in a strange dimension that breached time. As Richard Rider, he travels the cosmos, using his cvery powerful abilities to quickly, almost brutally bring about justice and often works with the Starjammers and has an on-off-on relationship with Firestar
