Tristram Teraff

Tristram Teraff was your average high-school student. He was smart-mouthed, a gamer, and a sugar addict (and yes, I mean actual sugar, he didn't do drugs). He lived with his Dad and Stepmother in the city of Chicago in 1999. He didn't have many friends, but he cared deeply about the ones he did have. This willingness to protect those close to him manifested one day on a walk home from school, where Tristram and his friend Claude were held up in an alley. Tris tried to stop the criminal, but was far weaker than him. So, having no other options, he cried out for help... and something answered. From deep within his own soul, a shining suit of armor with boulders for arms appeared and punched the gunman senseless. Tristram stood in awe as his knight in shining armor stood there motionless, as if waiting for an order. Claude was as confused as Tris was shocked, as he only saw the gunman fly away, and didn't know what his friend was looking at.

After this event, Tristram fought crime whenever he saw it happening, mastering Stone Cold's speed and power. Though, this would all suddenly change, as the realms draw closer...
