Biography

Keli Quintela was a female human born who lived in La Paz in Bolivia. A month ago, the 11 year old Keli was searching the junkyard with a boy named Marcos where they were looking for items of value that they could sell for money. The pair were present at the scene where they witnessed a man killing an alien seemingly dressed in the attire of a Green Lantern. Afraid for their lives, the two would flee the area with Keli going home and using her sister's phone to search the internet about Green Lanterns. She would later return to the junkyard where Quintela found the dying alien named Iorl. Before he expired, he gave her a gauntlet like device to Keli telling her to make the world her own before throwing the device in fire but expired before he could reveal anything else to her. Due to his clothes, Keli came to believe she had been deputised to be a member of the Green Lantern Corps. Unable to sleep the night, the next day she went to Marcos to find out what he knew about the incident though he claimed to had known nothing except that bad people were involved. She then revealed the gauntlet to him where he believed that it was a hack of a Green Lantern Power Ring and tapped into the same source of energy. Marcos believed that Keli should surrender the device to a Green Lantern but she refused as she intended to learn how to use it and leave La Paz to meet with superheroes. Tapping into the gauntlet, she was able to fly from La Paz where she decided to travel to Metropolis. (Young Justice v3 #9)

Overview

Personality and attributes

As a superhero, she decided to take the name Teen Lantern for herself. (Young Justice v3 #1)

At her home in La Paz, she was friends with a boy named Marcos whose mother told him to speak to Keli with more respect. Marcos tended not to talk to many people as he saw bad people everywhere. (Young Justice v3 #9)

Powers and abilities

Keli Quintela was a human born on Earth with no special inherent powers or abilities. This was until one day she came to acquire an alien gauntlet created by an unknown advanced extraterrestrial being. (Young Justice v3 #9)

Whilst wearing the gauntlet, one could feel a kind of button there but could not see it. Marcos believed that the user controlled it bionetically whereby the skin contact allowed the device to tap into the person's cerebral cortex. Thus, the user was able to direct it with the speed and power of thought. (Young Justice v3 #9)
