Quark

As a youth, Quark was a sidekick to the super-hero Starfighter.

History

Starfighter trained him to master unique skills by linking into a special force called the Cosmic Lorus. Unfortunately, Quark chose to brandish those skills in a brutal fashion. This prompted Starfighter to wipe the Lorus knowledge from his mind, presumably ending his super-heroic career. Since then Charlie's main means of financial support has come from convention appearances.

Years later, long after his crime-fighting days were done, Charlie pursued acting as a career. He was cast on a sitcom, called The Secret. The show focused on a group of friends, with the twist that one of them was secretly a superhero.

Powers

The Cosmic Lorus: Charlie could somehow sense the Lorus, and persuaded Starfighter to train him in its usage. However he could only memorize the patterns and had no real cosmic or spiritual connection to their wondrous powers.

Observations

  • During an promotional interview for the sitcom series he was starring in, the now adult Charlie Provost insisted that his stint as Quark was not a sidekick role, but rather as Starfighter's full partner.
