Description[]
Delinquent - Formerly, the Infant Terrible.
Not much is known about the mysterious Elan race. They are immensely powerful beings that can alter reality to their whims. A very long time ago, an Elan whose name has never been revealed was one of the Protectors of the Universe chosen by Eon.
The most well known member of the Elan is the so-called Infant Terrible, a young Elan that found its way to Earth where it encountered the Fantastic Four. The Fantastic Four's leader Mister Fantastic succeeded in contacting the Infant's parents who recovered the child before it could turn its power on the Earth in a fit of rage. The Infant returned to Earth shortly thereafter where it ran amok in the African Repbulic of Karunda before being recovered by his parents again.
