DC does not make figuring out Kon's age easy. Kon has been alive for roughly four years. Because he is a clone, he was grown in incubation tube where he was physiological and biologically aged up to 14 years old. He currently looks like he is 16-17, since he spent around a year unable to physically age.


Birthdate/Sign: Kon does not have a canon birthday. However, when he was first released from his incubation tube, the weather suggested it was around summer time. Metropolis goes through four full seasons, and people were comfortably running around in shorts and shirts.

I am going with Leo.
Willful: One of his good friends, Bart Allen, once said to Kon “Come on, Kon! You've always been the rebel out of all of us!” While Kon can be a great team player, in the end, he does what he feels is right in his heart. Sometimes this means ignoring direct orders he is given by the leader of the Teen Titans or someone else, to do what he thinks is right. He also likes to think of himself as the muscle of the Titans and has no problem being the one to get into the thick of things and throw down.

Arrogant: When Kon first left the incubation tube, he was the epitome of arrogance. He wanted to be Superman, and he wanted the rest of the world to acknowledge him as someone special. For well over a year, Kon was known as “the hero of Hawaii” for fighting various bad guys and saving people in distress. At the time, Kon had his own PR manager. His publicist would sensationalize Kon's heroics and make a nice profit off of Superboy merchandise. These days, Kon has become much more toned down. He tries not to let his arrogance get the best of him, but it still likes to shine through when he gets into a battle with bad guys or he meets someone he doesn't like.

Honest: For so long, Kon kept his thoughts and feelings to himself for the most part, only opening up to a few people. Before he died, he discovered that half his DNA came from Lex Luthor, megalomaniac and villain extraordinaire. He kept it that side of him a secret for months, and when he was ready to tell, Lex Luthor took over his mind causing him to go on a rampage. After that, Kon struggled for awhile between being like Superman and Luthor. In the end, he decided he was his own person, and he was a good guy, which meant it was time for him to be open and honest with people.

Hard Working: A strong work ethic is the cornerstone of Kon's daily activities. The majority of his week is spent either helping out on Ma Kent's farm, volunteering in shape or form with the Smallville community, and tackling any problems that required Superboy. On the weekends, he goes to Titan's Tower and teams up with the Titans to take on problems that are too big for one person.

Responsible: Up until his death, Kon had a knack for blowing off his responsibilities. He just wanted to go out and have fun or do whatever it was he wanted to do. When the entire multiverse was at risk of falling to pieces thanks to a violent, younger alternative universe of Superman, Kon was faced with a daunting task; risk life and limb to save the day. He sacrificed himself for the greater good and literally saved not only the world, but multiple universes. Since the events leading up to his death and his death, he sees things differently. If he had been responsible and confided in his friends, he wouldn't have hurt any of them. When he is responsible and takes a situation seriously, he can make a huge impact.

Tattoo: Kon's tattoo will be three inches and on his right shoulderblade.
Suitability: Kon is psychology and physiologically 18.

Power: As a half-krytponian, genetically altered clone, Kon has a handful of powers.

Tactile-telekinesis: A psionic, telekinetic force field that he can manipulative throughout his body and outwardly to do a number of tasks, including; create a protective shield, grant him super strength, flight, disassemble machines, and focus his t.t.k. To create explosive and solid attacks.

Kryptonian powers: Due to Kon's alien genetics, he is able to absorb solar energy from the sun, granting him super powers, including; heat vision, x-ray vision, super strength (able to lift around 50 tons), flying at supersonic speeds (he can travel from Europe to America within a couple of hours), arctic breath, super hearing, and invulnerability.

I would like Kon to keep his t.t.k and have it significantly nerfed to about 10% of its usual capabilities. Nerfing his powers to 10% will make his powers more like a buff than a ridiculous power. For example, instead of being able to fly, he'll be able to jump the same distance as an Olympic long jumper. When he puts his shield up, it acts more like wearing armor equivalent to what someone in the army would wear in a war zone.

Personality:

“Keep it simple” was Kon's new mantra. For much of Kon's life, he felt like he should be working towards being as iconic and powerful as Superman. Being stuck in a Smallville aka Snoozeville was just about hell on earth for him. He was created to one day be Superman, yet he was stuck on a farm, watching yokels attempt to go cow tipping. Where was the justice in that? Then he died saving the multiverse during the second crisis and everything changed. Gone were the days of wanting non-stop-action. While Kon still wanted to make a difference in the world using his powers and took a great deal of pride in being Superboy, he also wanted to learn how to be Conner Kent. He wanted a normal life at school complete with typical high school shenanigans and romance. More than that, he wanted to keep himself grounded and center. Focus on whom he was keep his mind clear, and become the person he wants to be.

For the first time in his life, he didn't feel like a clone of Superman and Lex Luthor, he felt like his own person. While being a clone was still be a sore spot for him, for the most part he had accepted it and was ready to move on. Now more than ever, he believed that he could be happy and live a fulfilling life. This attitude helped foster a sense of confidence in him rather than arrogance. In the past, he was partially so over the top with his arrogance because he wanted to use it shield his insecurities. When a clone specific disease lead to his aging process being held, he was afraid he was going to be stuck looking like he was 15 for the rest of his life. The other part of his arrogance came from immaturity. He never grew up with a family, friends or going through the normal experiences must people go through by the time they are clones. The only person he felt like he had for the longest time was himself, so he focused on himself. In more recent times, he knew he had a family, a group of amazing friends, an even more amazing girl loved him, and a place to belong.

Feeling like he belonged, lead to  new found sense of optimism in Kon. Not to say he wasn't optimistic before, but he started to understand how Superman views the world. A former Titan once mentioned that Kon was too much like a boy scout because of his optimism and wanting to be a good, honest person. While he didn't want to be Superman, there were traits Superman has that he wants to model. Being in Smallville helped show him how everyday people, without any fancy powers, can get a lot done when they put their minds to it. They showed him how a community of people can come together to help those in need and not ask for anything in return. Seeing such kindness helped peel away some of the jaded layers Kon had.

Even before he went to Smallville, optimism was grown in his heart because of his relationship with Cassie. Despite the constant flirting Kon does, deep down inside he wants a serious and loving relationship. He found love for the first time at the age of fifteen, with Tana Moon, an older woman who reported on his antics as Superboy. The two were on again, off again lovers. When she died in front of him, it made him realize that you might not always have the chance to make things right with the person you love. Which is why when the world was getting ready to end, he didn't want to hold back with Cassie. He told her that he loved her, and the two shared their love for each other physically. The experience was such a positive and loving experience for him that it sparked the creation of a soul inside of him.

Granted, Kon was a teenager and half the time he didn't know what it is he wanted with love. In the past few months, there was a lot of relationship drama. He broke up with Cassie because the two kept having heated arguments. He wanted to be more affectionate with her and talk to his friends about their relationship, whereas she wanted it to be more private because she was the leader of the Titans and didn't want anyone to view her differently. She also told him she was having a difficult time focusing on what she had to do in battle because she was terrified he would die again. Kon decided to cut things off and had a hard time dealing with the aftermath. To make matters more complicated, he also had feelings for his-sort-of-cousin-but-not-really-because-he-is-a-close and his team member, Ravager. While genuinely cares about them as people and their character are a huge draw for him, he is definitely a sucker for a pretty face and rocking body. Flirting is something he's never had any problem with and likely never will have a problem with it.

Romantic interests aren't the only people Kon has a true-blue devotion towards. Superman, aka Kal-El, was the one who gave him the name “Kon-El”, initiating him into the House of El. Before then, Kon was trying to find his footing around Supes and figure out their relationship. After Supes gave him a name, all of the confusion was cleaned up: Superman's family. The same could be said for the rest of the family, especially his best friend Tim. When it came to his friends, Kon could be very protective. Nothing ignited his anger quicker than someone he cared about being in danger. Tim has quit being Robin a couple of times, and Conner refused to call anyone else Robin. He even went on to say “You'll always be my Robin”. When he broke Tim's arm, it haunted him for days. He constantly beat himself up over it and isolated himself from all of his friends. When he came back to life, he caught up with Tim when Tim was in his super broody stage. Tim was trying to find Batman, aka Tim's adoptive father—Bruce Wayne. No one else believed Tim when he said that Bruce was still alive. Kon, however, believed in Tim and told him as much. He also picked up on how Tim was behaving figured out his new armor and attitude was a way of punishing himself. He tried to be supportive towards Tim and try to relieve some of Tim's guilt. He wasn't sure if it worked or not, but at least he tried.

Even though Kon is a half-alien, half-human, superpowered clone, at heart was a teenager. Often times when he speaks, he uses modern slang like “dude”, “do you wanna do this or that?” “that's so messed up/sick/epic”, etc. He liked throwing in wisecracks with his friends or whenever he got into a confrontation. Some of his favorite places to go to include the gaming restaurant, Dave and Busters. He liked playing video games, was obsessed over Wendy the Werewolf slayer stalker a couple of years ago, had fun visiting the Olympics when his friend Cissie was competing, and liked playing fetch with his buddy/canine companion, Krypto.

✖ SAMPLES:
"Zodion" First-Person Network Entry:

[When the feed flickers to life, a confused looking teen's face appears on it. He has short, cropped black hair, bright blues eyes, and his lips are twisted off to the side of his mouth while his mind tries to make sense of what's going on.]

So, 'sup? Apparently this is a network that allows me to connect with other people who have been dragged to this place. [Sighs in annoyance.]

I mean, don't get me wrong. The place has some sweet digs, and it beats a lot of the other places I've been to, but it's not the kind of place I want to hang out long term. I want to be back home, with my friends and family. Something tells me I'm not the only one. I mean, I'm sure the Twelve are doing what they think right, but that one was one seriously creepy message. I mean that's the kind of creepy message you expect someone to send you in an MMORPG, before offering to run you through a dungeon. Not someone asking you to help them save the day. [Shakes his head.]

I am guessing if there was an easy way out of here, people would have already taken it. Is there any way out of this place? And what is it they want? Apparently, they can drag me halfway across the universe but they can't make the time to tell someone they brought here what is going on.

[Watches the feed anxiously, hoping that one of his friends will connect with him. Part of him wants to ask him for right away, but if they are in hiding or whatever, he doesn't want to give them away. That being said, if he doesn't hear from anyone soon, he is going to start making a lot of noise.]


"Zodionlogs" Third-Person Prose Entry: (200 word minimum)

“Seriously?! Come on, universe. Give me a break already.” Apparently, it wasn't enough for him to do battle with several cloned versions of himself and that psychopath, Superboy-Prime. Giving him a break after something like that would be too helpful! Kon studied his surroundings, trying to make sense of them. From what he could tell, the style of the architect and surrounding area was reminiscent of Themiscyra.

“Red Robin!? Wonder Girl?! Kid Flash?! Ravager?! Anyone here?” A quick surge of anger bubbled through him. If whoever brought him here did anything to his friends, they were going to pay. All he wanted was a few days to kick back with his friends and enjoy themselves. Was that too much to ask? Ugh. The worst part was they were probably worried sick about him, especially Cassie and Tim. If they thought for a second anything serious had happened to him, they'd freak out.

“Come on, self. We gotta think of a way outta here, my friends are—OW!” Kon swore under his breath, reaching for his shoulder. Raw pain is not something Kon often felt. Thanks to his Kryptonian genes and tactile-telekinesis, most pain was diluted or erased all together. He stared at his shoulder in disbelief, spotting a strange looking glowing tattoo on it. Glancing over his shoulder made him aware of the letter nearby. Finally, some answers! He scoped it up and began to ready it.

“Okay, this is getting weirder and weirder. I am out of here.” The letter was tossed off to the side, the device pocketed, and Kon bolted down the stairs. When he reached the bottom of the stairs, he jumped into the air expecting to take flight. Instead, he let out an undignified yelp as his body awkwardly dangled about in the area and he slammed onto the ground with an “Oof!”.

He officially wasn't in Kansas any more.
