“Surely heroes such as yourselves can’t resist a challenge... if the cause is just.”

Background

The Examiner is one of the Galaxars, a group of beings of vast cosmic power who often use that power in strange, idiosyncratic ways. No one knows where they came from, or even if they all came from the same place (or obtained their powers in the same way). Some scholars speculate that, like Supernova (page 130), they’re the recipients of the “gestalt energy” of entire extinct species (or even more than one species), or the last few remaining members of a species that was already ancient when the Malvans were at the height of their power.

Personality

The Examiner uses his power for one primary purpose: to test people, usually people of great power or will (such as superheroes). He’s fascinated by how beings of various sorts react to challenges, be those challenges physical, emotional, or spiritual. Sometimes he tells his victims (and make no mistake — all too often, that’s exactly what they are, for he’s quite pitiless once he sets a challenge in motion) what he’s doing. But just as often he sets events in motion and then observes, revealing his role in the situation only after the victim has triumphed or failed. He applauds, and sometimes rewards, those who meet their challenges with determination and strength; he scorns those who reveal “the flaws within” by crumbling in the face of his tests.

Powers

Like his fellow Galaxars, the Examiner possesses tremendous cosmic power. He can cross the Galaxy in the blink of an eye, withstand just about any attack, project nigh-irresistible bolts of force, transform people and objects into other things at will, and perceive just about anything. He has so much sheer power that he doesn’t need tactics; if attacked, he simply stands there, shrugs off the assault, and counters with an attack his attacker cannot withstand.
