Character Info
Name: Larfleeze
Canon: Green Lantern
Age: Billions of years old.
Canon/AU/CR AU: Canon
Reference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Larfleeze
Canon Point: After the events of Green Lantern: New Guardians #11
World Information: The Green Lantern Universe mainly revolves around the Guardians and the various color corps. The Guardians are immortal aliens who decided they wanted a way to police the Universe so, after some false starts, they created the green power battery. The light of the green lantern is based on the willpower of the user. The Guardians began inducting members other planets into the green lantern corp, which granted them the use of a lantern ring. The ring is what allows them to channel the power of the battery. It provides a number of useful powers, the most used among them being flight and the ability to create hard light constructs. The more willpower the corps member has, the more powerful a green lantern they are.
Through a long series of circumstances, other power batteries were created in different colors: red, yellow, blue, pink, violet, and orange. Each battery has its own corps, its own leader, and its own emotion that it bases its power on. The corps often fight amongst themselves because they are all usually at cross purposes.
Personality:
Larfleeze’s main personality trait is easy to guess, considering he is the leader of the Orange Lantern Corps- orange being the color of avarice. Even before he came upon the lantern and its power, Larfleeze displayed a penchant for thieving, and the things he stole were not small. He was part of a group of other bandits that managed to pull off the heist of a small box, whose contents were rumored to be worth an entire star system. In the end, Larfleeze is the only one left of the original group, obtaining both the box and the orange lantern after killing his last comrade. The box he agrees to trade to the Guardians for, yes, an /entire/ star system of his own.
Ophidian, the entity of Avarice is even impressed by the depth of Larfleeze’s greed. Before he came, Ophidian tempted and enslaved anyone who sought the orange power battery. Larfleeze was the only one able to resist, being himself a creature of pure desire, and therefore Ophidian was the one enslaved and trapped in the lantern.
The reason for Larfleeze’s intense avarice probably lies in the fact that he was taken away from his parents as a young child and forced to be a slave until later in his adult years when he finally managed to escape. He’s not a totally reliable source, but Larfleeze claims to have been so desirous of possessions that he believed them to be following him around and begging him to own them. This claim may be slightly skewed by thousands of years of influence the battery has on him but it likely holds a grain of truth. Such prolonged proximity to the lantern has turned his thoughts only to what he can acquire, never satisfied, and forever hungry for more.
Living by himself on Okaara for so long has also influenced his behavior. He spent a ridiculous amount of time out of contact with other living beings, save for those criminals that fled to the Vega system to hide out- and those he simply killed to add them to his orange lantern corps. Thus, Larfleeze has become very out of touch with the rest of the galaxy. He has no manners, no knowledge of other cultures, no tact, and no concept of personal space. And this suits him just fine. He’s only interested in what he can steal from other people, not their approval or companionship. And considering how powerful he is? It’s more than enough to get him what he wants. Which means his selfish behavior comes off as very childish at times. Like a spoiled kid, he’s not interested in listening to authority, will employ violence without a second thought, and tends to yell until he’s gotten what he wants.
Abilities, Weaknesses, and Power Limitations:
The orange ring grants the user these powers:
Flight
aura projection – allows the user to breathe and not be crushed by the pressure in space/water
light constructs – can create things out light that exist as long as the user is concentrating on them
Identity theft - whoever is killed by a wielder of the orange light becomes a construct and joins the orange lantern corps under Larfleeze’s power.
Corps members: He has quite a few stolen dead people to serve as his army. I would be okay if he was restricted to just Glomulus? He’s the little blobby four armed one that tends to act as a scout/messenger.
Weaknesses:
The ring causes constant intense feelings of greed and hunger. There is no possibility for satisfaction when under its influence. All powers granted by the ring disappear when the ring is removed.
Inventory:
If nothing else, he must have his orange power battery and ring.

If AU, how is your version different from canon, and how will that come across?
Samples
Log Sample:
Larfleeze crouched in a steadily growing pile of belongs, scanning the extranet on the amazing glowing device he had been given. Given! He had just arrived here and already he was amassing possessions. Granted, everyone else seemed to have the same light machine- but no matter. That just meant he would have to take all of theirs as well.
The sound of tiny feet tromping on metal made him grin in anticipation, for it could only be Glomulus returning with a new haul to add to his collection. Sure enough, a round orange blob-like creature squeezed itself through the vent leading to Larfleeze’s secret room, all four of its arms clutching something shiny and valuable looking.
“Hoo!” it declared, saluting and handing over the items. Larfleeze took them eagerly, prodding and turning them over with long, filthy fingernails, examining each one to determine its worth. Glomulus had done well- some poor denizens would certainly be missing these.
“Good. Go get more,” he said, waving the creature away. It hurried to go press itself into the vent and back out into the marketplace. Larfleeze laid back on his pile, fiddling with a golden time telling device and humming to himself. It might take a while to collect as much as he had at home- but it was unacceptable to own any less. Preferable to own even more, really. In time, he was sure he could make the entirety of Omega his. After all, he always got what he wanted.
Network Sample:
[Viewers of the extranet will suddenly be greeted by a giant pair of teeth. They aren’t shiny, or white, or even /clean/. They’re gross and so is their owner, who doesn’t seem to be interested in scaling back the zoom on his camera. So enjoy the nasty teeth, tongue, and occasionally spit droplets that are assaulting your screen right now.]
I like this city. I like it a lot. It has so many different things from many different places. I want them all.
Hear this, Guardians! You and your Green Lanterns stay away from this place! It’s mine now! I’ve claimed it! If I see so much as a green SOCK show up here, I will send my Corps back to Oa. Again.
And this time, I won’t go easy on you.
