History
Jon Farmer, a hero from another dimension, was a member of the Monarchy.
Jon Farmer used to go by the name of Morningstar. A protege and second in command to C-Space's parallel-counterpart of Earth-50's Jackson king; King One and operative of the 10,000 SPB strong inter-dimensional fighting force called The Monarchy situated in a shift ship called The Throne. King-one and his precursor team were all subsequently wiped out by their reality's Abraham Dusk a.k.a the living quantum virus. To save his partner in arms King-One jettisoned the young page through the prism; a multiversal artifact which powered the thrones headquarters before detonating it; sending him hurtling towards The Bleed, a sort of gutters in the multiverse towards a backwater reality stream.
Morningstar eventually wound up on Earth-50 in early 1967 a hazy period in his life to say the least. At some point he was drafted into a superhuman task force rallied by Jenny Sparks to combat the threat of a living city from millions of years into the future. Then in 1981 after realizing the world was ill under it's own grief, decided to become a priest in order to help alleviate it but again his history from there on was still blurred. In the early 2000's Farmer went to the party on the carrier meeting various heroes primarily encountering The Authority's Apollo among others.
Stowing away on The Carrier as a bartender looking for other such superheroes in order to help him cure the world of it's woes. So far to no avail until the only prospect that came to his attention was Jackson King and Christine Trelane's reaching their epiphanies, respectively interacting with his own power set. Disparaged, he eventually returned to his own little parish in a church in downtown Chicago, only to have King and Trelane; the newly wedded couple search him out. A few months later. He was drawn out of hiding and had become a premier member of new Multiversal black Ops unit called the Monarchy.
In the times that followed he had been instructed by his new boss Jackson King; Now simply going by the moniker King, to act as a compatriot and moral guide for fellow Covert team member Union. Who after his own suicide was resurrected molecule by molecule By King & Trelane but with a majorly different persona from his previous life, having grown colder, darker and more willing to act on the dirtier assignments King issued out and took to pushing the guilty more than protecting the innocent. So in a nutshell King had assigned Jon to save the dark hero's soul.
During an attack by Chimera and consequently The Higher Power. This twisted alternate reality version of The Authority created from their multiple intervals within the bleed thus encoding countless worlds with their ruthless trans dimensional pattern. Jon Sacrificed himself to allow his Team to escape the crown and into a secluded dimension, but surprisingly (depending on your motif) Jon hadn't died but become some state of higher being as a creature of pure energy. He assisted King in his final battle with the Higher Power's Mistress Midnighter as a multicolored thought blade, and then helped him purge Chimera's taint allowing King to restructure the Alter world into a colossal shift ship called The Throne.Attributes
