Atlan (New Earth)

History
Long ago, Atlan was one of three children (the others being Haumond and Kraken) born to Atlantis' King Honsu and his queen Lorelei. As he grew, Atlan's hair turned blond, and many believed this to mean he carried the Curse of Kordax the destroyer. For a while, he was banished from the city of Poseidonis. When he returned home, Atlan told of life above the surface. His revelations led Honsu to invade the surface world.
A few decades ago, Atlan's spirit visited Atlanna, Queen of Atlantis, impregating her. The child, Orin, was born with blond hair and abandoned because of this. He grew to become Atlantis' king and the world's hero, Aquaman. Atlan then sired another child with an Eskimo woman. This child, Orm Marius, was destined to battle Orin as the Ocean Master. Atlan has also gifted Aquaman's adopted son Garth with formidable mystical abilities.
