Full Name: Taneleer Tivan
Fandom: POTO, original, other (specify)? Marvel in general
Age: hella
Hair:
Eyes: dark?
Nationality: ahaha!!
Job: professional space hoarder
Personality: Chill and inscrutable and kind of a troll. Also, frequently vaguely huntin' for babes.
Life Story (as much as you want us to know): A member of one of the last species to have lived in the previous universe before our own, Tivan was allowed to stay into this one as a living relic. Despite the whole being unable to get older or die thing, this worked pretty well for him, even leading to his marrying a member of one of the races that came into being in the new one and spending a few thousand years with her before she ended up withering away from lack of purpose. In order to have something to do with his own time and cope with his grief, Tivan decided to extend the preservation effort that had started with himself to other beings by trapping them as living specimens in his collection alongside non-sentient valuable objects. His resolve was only strengthened when he became aware of numerous omnicidal threats to the future of the universe, giving him quite the savior complex in the process, but that's a bit hard to pick up under how much his personality has gradually flattened out with the weight of having seen and experienced pretty much everything. That said, just because it takes the discovery or acquisition of a new shiny to really amp up his enthusiasm doesn't mean he's riddled with fashionable ennui- he loves every moment of the acquisition process with a weird passionate investment, and doesn't feel the slightest angst about all the millennia he's seen fall like dominoes in front of him.
He's also, by human standards, pretty shockingly amoral, but there isn't a power-hungry bone in his body. He just likes owning stuff. A lot.
