Parasite (earth-7)

Something arrived on Earth hidden within the aftermath of a fallen conqueror and it was never meant to be found.

Now, buried within corporate secrecy, it grows, adapts, and waits. It is not driven by instinct alone, but by something far more dangerous: purpose. 

Biography 

Early Life

Rudy Jones was nothing more than a janitor working for LexCorp, tasked with cleaning the remnants of conflicts far beyond human understanding. During one such assignment, he accidentally came into contact with an alien organism that had been improperly secured within a weakened containment unit.

The creature had arrived on Earth years earlier, carried within the same meteor that marked the coming of Starro the Conqueror. After Starro’s defeat, the remaining biological material was contained through efforts associated with the formation of the Justice League, while LexCorp was brought in to erase any trace left behind on the battlefield.

Unlike what many assumed, it was not the creature that studied humanity. It was Lex Luthor who dedicated years to studying the organism, carefully analyzing its properties, behavior, and potential. Through this research, he reached a critical conclusion: the creature could not truly survive without a host.

To control it, Lex ensured the organism was kept in a fragile containment state, one that could be easily compromised by anyone unaware of its true nature.
