History
Like all Elders of the Universe, the Runner's true origins are lost in antiquity. He is the sole survivor of a race that inhabited one of the first galaxies formed in the wake of the Big Bang. He professed to being five billion years old.
Although both his galaxy and his race died long ago, the Runner found some key to longevity that enabled him to escape the fate of the rest of his species. The exact nature of this key remains unclear, but it seems related to total freedom. On one occasion, he professed that had he been forced to endure captivity on one planet, he would have died.
During an encounter with the hero Moondragon, the Runner informed her that a star would go nova in a decade or so. When Moondragon asked him to warn the inhabitants of the planets orbiting the star, Runner responded, "Alas, I don't think I have the power to do that. I gave up much when I chose the path of freedom." It is unrevealed whether the responsibility for warning the occupants of the star system would interfere with the freedom that seems the key to his immortality.
Runner lives to see all there is in the universe and derives his greatest joy in the simple act of running through the universe. Presumably, he does not wish to die until he has seen the entire universe-a task close enough to impossible that he will not lose the will to live for billions of years.
