Atlas the Traveller was a member of the Interdimensional Pride Council. Some bad blood existed between him and Dorian Gray, meaning that newly-appointed member the Man in Grey's letter of recommendation from Dorian turned out to be quite counter-productive. (PROSE: A Series of Queer Events)
Behind the scenes
Atlas is an open-source character, created in 2015 by Brandon Longstreth, requiring no attribution license or Paragraph variant. His original profile on the Public Domain Super Heroes Wiki described his backstory at greater length:
He was born a cartographer's son in 8th century Basra. He was the mapmaker for all of Sinbad the Sailor's voyages, including the secret ones. Sinbad was Atlas' lover and trusted him so completely that he entrusted him with Sinbad's personal copy of Al Azif. Sometime after he was given the book he stopped aging and has wandered the world as a mapmaker and adventurer ever since. On one of his many adventures, the goddess Celestina bestowed upon him the Celestial Sword made from a piece of her own essence. Atlas is extremely long lived. He stopped aging at around age 50 and is at the peak human condition for someone that age. The Celestial Sword cuts through the fabric of reality allowing instant travel across any distance. |
