Bio:
During his twenties and thirties, Drayton was a solo hero named Deluge, a fierce fighter and tough-loving father of a rebellious son. But later in his mid-life stage, he saw that his strength was weakening bit by bit and he decided to form a team of superheroes. He based the group on the signs of the Zodiac, and each member would display qualities representing a different astrological sign. He then became Aquarius, the water bearer. His son Lawrence grew up to become the supervillain Fathom, displaying half of Drayton’s powers. Lawrence at some point in his misadventures fathered two daughters, one of whom Drayton was able to rescue, and one he lost to evil. Drayton raised his granddaughter River emotionlessly and sternly, allowing her little freedom or personal space and always looking on her with a disapproving eye. When she discovered that he was a powerful superhero and that she had acquired a quarter of his powers, it was decided that she would join the hero team the Defenders. To this day Aquarius leads the Celestials and pushes River to be tough and unforgiving.
