Biography
Origin
Glorith of Baaldur was a non-powered henchwoman of the Time Trapper who was sent back in time to the 30th century. She attempts to destroy the Legion by transforming them into children. However, when the pre-pubescent Legionnaires managed to defeat her, the Time Trapper de-aged her until she reverted to protoplasm.
Post-Crisis
Glorithverse
Ultra Boy began to suspect that Glorith had manipulated the timeline to replace another being (the Time Trapper) and steal his power, and that she would soon reach omnipotence. To stop her, he tricked Mordru into attacking her. Although the battle was essentially a draw, it cost her enough power to prevent her from conquering the universe. Eventually, Glorith learned of Ultra Boy's covert operations. To punish him, she sent his fiancée Phantom Girl a thousand years back in time (where she became the amnesiac Phase and joined L.E.G.I.O.N.), and made it seem that Phantom Girl had died.
Post-Infinite Crisis
Overview
Personality and attributes
Powers and abilities
Glorith has complete control over time itself. She is able to freeze it, alter it, and even separate parts of it, thereby allowing her to (paradoxically) maintain the Time Trapper's pocket dimensions. She has the ability to age or de-age living beings to a seemingly unrestricted degree. At its extreme, this power can easily end one's life. She can send individuals forward or backward in time. Unlike the Time Trapper, her powers are partially based in sorcery. Thus, she also exhibits abilities such as mind control and manipulation.
The current incarnation of Glorith has training in the use of sorcery, but is still a novice in the mystic arts. She has certain magical abilities that can be used spontaneously, but apparently requires prior preparation or the use of rituals for more significant effects.
