Character Info
Profile
An American teacher who at their lowest point in life was suddenly summoned to become an intergalatic space cop due to their sheer force of will. Which would be fine if they didn't have the social decorum of a silverback gorilla pounding its chest.
Timeline
Timeline:
* 1994: Born in Baltimore, MD
* 1997: His father descends into alcoholism and abuse
*
2006: Years of abuse take its toll, Guy starts acting out in school and becoming a juvenile
delinquent
* 2012: Guy's older brother Mace who has joined the police catches Guy stealing a car
and beats him badly, but it comes with a pep talk and loan of cash to get him into college.
Strangely this seems to work.
* 2017: Guy graduates and lands a job as a gym teacher, the same
year his father passes away and the two manage to make peace a couple weeks before his death.
*
2018: Guy is injured in a car accident and hospitalized but meets a therapist Kari Limbo with whom
he strikes up a relationship. While in the hospital his brother is killed by drug-dealers and
identified as a dirty cop. Still hurt Guy leaves the hospital to find the dealers and exact revenge,
but is overwhelmed and beaten into a coma.
* 2019: Guy awakens after several months. Kari has
left him and he's told he's suffering from some brain damage. He recovers though in the early parts
of the year and takes to physical training like never before. Near year's end he's selected as a
Green Lantern candidate and taken to Oa for training.
* 2020: Gardiner returns to Earth after a
year's training. Despite a higher number than usual reprimands during training it's decided the high-
conflict planet needs another Lantern Corp member.

Personality
Sense of Honor:
Despite his anger issues, Guy does not believe in killing his foes unless no other options are
available, and he has strong feelings about beating those who cannot defend themselves which tends
to bring up memories of his father he'd rather forget.
Stubborn Pride:
All Green Lanterns are chosen in large part for their willpower which serves to strengthen their
bond to the Green Light energy. It's rumored Guy's willpower may be the strongest of them all, but
at the detriment of his rather, abrasive personality. Once Guy has decided on a course of action
it's difficult if not impossible to convince him otherwise. He KNOWS he's right and will inform
everyone of such and has no fear of breaking rules, codes of conduct, or faces to get his
way.
Temper:
Raised in an abusive household taught Guy that acting out when you're angry is, well typical.
While he's not a child he is quicker to anger than most grown men, potentially violent so, something
that grows scarier with the power of the ring.
Character Sheet
Powers
Power Ring:
Guy Gardner's powers are derived from the Green Power Ring he wears and has bonded with. Using
it he can create constructs out of green energy which have actual mass and with enough
practice/knowledge/creativity function as well. While some have rated Hal Jordan as having the
greatest willpower of all, Guy is oftentimes seen as right there with him if not exceeding at times.
Unfortunately Guy is also...one of the least creative Green Lanterns which can heavily offset this.
The bond with his ring does have other benefits as well though, allowing him to communicate with
Oa/other Lanterns, sense the ring even when it's off his person, and call it back to himself among
other minor abilities.
Skills
Lantern Training:
For better or worse all of Guy's most useful skills have come with his year-long crash course
training on Oa. While the Lantern Corp training is intense and covers a wide variety of combat,
space knowledge, and intergalactic law, it's still only 1 year. He spent 4 earning a liberal arts
degree which while useful in a teaching position, is unlikely to have much application in hero work.
Resources
Lantern Corps:
While Lantern Corps members usually operate alone it is not unheard of for them to request help
if need be from other nearby members or reporting to Oa directly in terms of dire emergency.
Weaknesses
America First:
It's one of those 'I'm not racist but...' moments with Guy. His abusive father did more than
instill a violent temper in Guy, he would often go on about damn foreigners being responsible for
why things were so bad. Hearing it so often eventually some of that took hold in Guy's head. One
would think working with the Lantern Corps of all things would have helped break this but instead
it's only extended and deepened it to aliens as his frequent conflicts with his fellow classmates
and teachers demonstrated. He's perfectly able to work with non-Americans and aliens of course, he
just happens to have a smug superiority complex about it when he does and is even less likely to
listen to them.
Brain Damage:
The year before becoming a Lantern, Guy was badly beaten into a coma by a bunch of thugs he was
going after for the murder of his brother. The head trauma exacerbated some of his worst personality
traits. Stubborness, violent temper, other anti-social behaviors. While not limiting his
intelligence necessarily, it's rather assumed it's also responsible for his very limited imagination
as well, Guy's constructs tending to consist of 'large object to physically beat opponent with.' How
he got through Lantern training like this is anyone's guess. On top of all this it is occasionally
causing migraines which don't help matters in terms of his temper.
