Mental characteristics

Personal history

Titus the Traveler is the name he proclaims himself for his desire to learn everything he possibly can throughout history and the universe. The distant descendant of the Spiegel family, including the famed Doctor Quantum, he was named Asher Spiegel as such in honor of one of the family's most influential members.   As a youth, he belonged to a wealthy yet miserable clan who were among the elite on New York City's top brass. A young Asher Spiegel wanted to change, he wanted to improve. As a he learned more about history, and about other worlds, Asher came to the conclusion that someone had to improve them, and that he must be the one. What drove him to becoming the feared figure he is today was when his father would abuse him during his alcoholic binges. He could take getting abused by him, but he couldn't take it when he did it his mother.   After a fight broke out on one such instance, Asher committed the deed of executing his father, but this made him an outcast of the Spiegel clan. Lost and alone, Asher rationalized this the future could only be improved if he was the one who improved it. After a great deal of effort, Asher was able to secure a Gateway of his own that enabled him to traverse time itself. He also got a suit of power armor, considered far beyond that of our capabilities, and declared himself as Titus the Traveler.   He traveled to alternate timelines, to other worlds, and built the Titus empire. Using technology from all corners of time and space, Titus has created a legion of his own, and one day he set his sights towards Earth. In 1968, Titus the Traveler invaded Earth and proclaimed that he was their new ruler. He almost succeeded in taking over, but his arrival caused the formation of the Harriers. One such member was Doctor Quantum, his own ancestor, to which he felt betrayed. The Harriers did enough damage to force Titus away from Earth, but he would come back several times over the course of over sixty years, specifically 1985, 1999, and 2013. Each time he was only barely warded off.   The idea of Titus making his return is one that causes great concern, and in fact the United Nations have now formed contingency plans in the event that he invades Earth again. Considered one of the most dangerous supervillains of all time, Titus the Traveler will stop at nothing until all of reality is in the palm of his hands.
