History

Pre-Steelheart

Calamity is an inhuman being whose origin is mostly unknown. He is a part of group of similar beings who for some reason want to prove, by experimenting in different universes, that humans always misuse power.[1] Calamity is born on Earth as a human, and finds life on the planet painful and confusing in comparison to the place where he originated. After ten years of living on Earth, observing mankind, Calamity decides that he has had enough, and starts living in the International Space Station, which he turns to glass.[5] He uses his limitless abilities to glow brightly, making him appear to be a star from the viewpoint of people on Earth. At this point he begins gifting powers to humans, creating Epics who are corrupted by him as they receive his hatred for the human race.[1] Shortly afterwards, Calamity sends a clone of himself to Earth.[citation needed] He pretends to be an Assumer Epic who people name Larcener. He joins the Coven and takes over the city of Atlanta, which he renames to Ildithia.[citation needed]

Firefight

Regalia communicates with Calamity and asks him to make particular people into new Epics. Regalia and Calamity attempt to give the powers of Steelheart to David,[8] but he rejects them.[9]

Calamity

Prof attacks Ildithia with the goal of becoming the city's new ruler, so Calamity's clone Larcener takes refuge with the Reckoners in their base.[6] Larcener is very whiny and cowardly and doesn't want to be helpful to the Reckoners or do anything but hide.

Later, during a final battle with Prof, Larcener unexpectedly shows up and attempts to take Prof's abilities back.[10]

Obliteration teleports David to the International Space Station to confront Calamity.[5] Calamity reveals himself as Larcener to David, who proceeds to detonate a bomb made from Obliteration's powers.[1] Calamity instantly reverses the effects of the explosion and tries to kick David out of the space station. Prof and Megan teleport into the space station to rescue David, and then Megan sends David and Calamity to the alternate reality where the real Firefight exists.[2] David shows Calamity that the Calamity of this reality left after making people into Epics, and they do not corrupt while using their powers; they actually are heroes. When Calamity realizes that the corruption that he claims that humans have is actually just his corruption, he collapses and disappears.[11]
