Gold Lantern

 

At some point after the 21st century, the colored lantern corps, including the Green Lanterns and the immortal Guardians of the Universe, ceased operations.
In their absence, a new group of Elders, beings of golden energy, inhabited the planet Oa. They claimed that the collective powers of the "emotional spectrum" held greater potential: it could bring true balance to the galaxy. 
In the 31st century, they sent an emissary named Gdon to choose Kala Lour as their standard bearer. Lour was a spiritual teacher on Apploza and was visually blind (as are many in his world). At first, he declined their offer, not wanting to be part of a military organization. They reassured him that he was the first of a new breed of Lantern. He then accepted their offer wholeheartedly.
The power of the Gold Lantern appears near-limitless and benefits from having a wielder who is practiced at self-control. It also enables him to fly unaided in space, at speeds faster than light.
I haven't done any Legionnaires in a long while for multiple reasons, I hope this makes up for it, at least a little.
Long live the Legion!
