AKA Barry Allen.<br/><br/>One year ago, the first of a series of tragedies struck.  Wally contracted a mysterious disease that made his body age faster the more he used his super speed, forcing him into retirement.  Shortly afterwards, Professor Zoom killed Iris right before Barry's eyes.  As though that wasn't enough, the battle between Flash and Professor Zoom opened up a rift in the space-time continuum.  Barry's twin children, Don and Dawn were sucked into the rift and were never seen or heard from again.  Unbeknownst to Barry, the twins were sent into the 30th century, where they grew up into superheroes of their own right.<br/><br/>Barry Allen has spent the next several months hopping from one dimension to the next, traveling through time, searching throughout the entire multi-verse, asking the Green Lantern corp for help in investigating each and every individual planet in the universe, all to look for his two missing children.  While he was away, Wally condition was cured and he was able to come back out of retirement.<br/><br/>While Barry was still looking for his children, Wally took over his duties by protecting both Central City and Keystone City.  It eventually became apparent, however, that Barry Allen wasn't coming back and Wally was going to have to take over the mantle.  During an encounter with Reverse-Flash, Wally was forced to push his powers to the limit and break through the psychological block he had placed on himself.  To prevent himself from truly "replacing" Barry, Wally had subconsciously limited his speed so that he could never become his mentor's equal, but Reverse-Flash's bragging that he would become the true Flash forced Wally past this block as he feared Reverse-Flash replacing Barry more than he feared himself doing so.  This breakthrough was the first step toward allowing Wally to discover the Speed Force and his special connection to this extra-dimensional source of energy.  In the aftermath of the conflict, Wally took up the mantle of the Flash.<br/><br/>Four months ago, Barry decided to start his search over from scratch.  He returned to the present time, his own dimension, back on Earth to look for more clues.  At first, he was surprised when he learned that Wally had become the new Flash during his absence.  They agreed, however, that there was room in the world for more than one Flash.  Wally continued operating as the Flash of Central and Keystone city while Barry mostly operated as a member of the Justice League.<br/><br/>== Character Extras == Face Claim:<br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Rupert Grint</div><div class="spoiler_body">(http://galeri8.uludagsozluk.com/440/rupert-grint_685452.jpg)</div></div><br/><br/>Ons: Click here for my O/O's (https://elliquiy.com/forums/onsoffs.php?u=1549)<br/><br/>Offs: Click here for my O/O's (https://elliquiy.com/forums/onsoffs.php?u=1549)
