Background

Ian is a transmigrator who retained memories of a previous life, including having scored over 700 on a college entrance examination before being forced to “re-roll.” At fourteen, he awakens a system that digitizes his abilities, professions, skills, and world recognition rather than providing conventional quests or a shop. His initial fear stems from being classified as a “Common NPC,” which he interprets as evidence that he may be an expendable sacrifice for the Kent family’s character development. 1

He lives with Clark Kent and Lois Lane alongside Jonathan and Jordan. Ian realizes early that he is not Clark and Lois’s biological child, though Clark attempts to present Ian’s unusual awakening as merely different from Jordan’s Kryptonian powers. Bruce Wayne later challenges Clark over Ian’s true origin, noting that Ian’s history appears inconsistent with having simply arrived in a spacecraft. Clark refuses to reveal the truth, insisting that he must protect his child. 1 97

Ian’s nightly experiences in ruined, frozen alternate settings and his encounters with beings from other universes drive his obsession with becoming powerful enough to survive. He initially pursues strength through his Berserker class, deliberately taking damage to gain experience and Rage. 3 6 7

Personality

Ian is highly self-confident, calculating, and intensely self-preserving. He frequently frames dangerous or selfish choices as logical, righteous, or necessary, including calling theft “righteous requisition” and redefining cosmic interference as an Ultraman’s duty. 320

Despite his self-centeredness, Ian’s strongest consistent priority is his family. He refuses to involve Batman in a crisis because he fears exposing the Kents, seeks methods to return his displaced brothers to their own time, protects Jordan from Doomsday’s power absorption, and later corrects temporal anomalies around the world without seeking recognition. 28 126 319 452

His humor, grandiose self-image, and bizarre logic often frustrate Clark, Batman, and other allies. Ian regularly invents titles for himself, exaggerates his importance to the Justice League, and treats frightening supernatural entities as resources, experiments, or potential employees. 77 197 320 327
