History
A long time ago in a Galaxy far far away, two space-traveling species met and immediately began waging war on each other. It turned into a battle to extinction, as neither side could gain a decisive advantage and neither side was willing to surrender. Finally one side developed a doomsday weapon. A human-shaped android of tremendous power, whose only goal was to defeat the enemy. This terrible artificial being became known as Adamant. Invulnerable, massively strong, incredibly fast, able to fly and survive in just about any environment, perhaps even the center of a sun, his creators built in a single weakness - exposure to the rare element auronite would cause him pain and eventually destroy him. Adamant's own destructive actions revealed another weakness, but the enemy was unable to exploit it. Adamant convinced his masters to set a trap for the enemy. In a solar system midway between the homeworlds of both enemies, they massed their forces, supposedly under a cloak of secrecy. The enemy realized that massive forces were being deployed, and began a matching build-up of their own. Adamant's side then withdrew their forces, and Adamant flew into the system at super speed. He flew into the sun and dropped a bomb of his own design. The other side launched their most powerful weapons against him, and thousands of enemy missiles plunged into the sun as well. The resulting explosions drove the sun to become a super nova. The blast was millions of times more powerful than Adamant's side had expected. The powerful energy released by the super nova crossed space and induced novas in all the surrounding stars within 100 light years, totally wiping out both races. The electromagnetic pulse severely damaged Adamant and he was thrown into deep space by the explosion. He drifted for millions of years, crossing the void between galaxies. He eventually drifted into the Milky Way galaxy, and came under the influence of the Sun's gravity. By happenstance, when he crossed Earth's orbit, he was captured by the gravity of Earth. He crashed to Earth in a cornfield in Kansas. Over the millions of years he had drifted, his self-repair function had restored much of the damage. All his mechanical functions worked correctly, but his artificial intelligence remained damaged. As a result, Adamant is much less intelligent than he was originally.
