Odell Decarter was tough and determined, strong and durable, but he lacked the finesse and dexterity needed to play sports on a professional level. In the end, tough is tough, but the talent is eventually a necessity. Odell vowed that were he even given a chance to compete, he would take it no matter what. Odell, however, was never one to waste an opportunity and he made it through college on his football and wrestling scholarships, graduating with honors with a dual degree in chemistry and geology with a specialty in minerology. After getting a lucrative, but boring job with a major petroleum firm, Odell still craved physical competition. It was then that heard of companies looking for volunteers for Q-implants. Odell jumped at the opportunity, moving to Kentucky and joined Team Exxon, gaining the opportunity to participate in the 2020 Q-Games. Odell did well and it was no surprise he made the cut to attend the 2022 Q-Games for as part of the Team Duel and Open Combat along with the individual Duel and Team Rescue events.
Odell was at the Q-Games when Gothmog and his minions attacked. The massive Q-pulse that caused nearly a quarter of the attending Quasar's powers to go into hyperexpression hit him as well, and he went through what Dr. Brooks referred to as "Quantum Sublimation", where his powers concentrated and expanded. Odell felt a primal connection with the earth and all surrounding minerals, and he found he could control those elements with mere thoughts. Odell saved a dozen lives that day as he protected innocents from Gothmog's elementals using earthen and crystal spheres, but the effort nearly cost him his life. AEGIS evaluated him and classified him as an Omega-level power. Afterward, he was approached by Dr. Anson about becoming a superhero -- but he saw how they treated Team Daedalus. Odell, now working with Exxon public relations to brand himself G-Ode, decided on the comfortable life and career of a celebrity Quasar, enjoying the prestige and influence of a star – something he had always dreamt of.
Things changed when Odell saw Dr. Anson murdered by Indemonity Claws during the Daedalus hearings. G-Ode knew he could have protected the doctor – and the idea that a great philanthropist like Dr. Anson died because he chose an easier celebrity life tore at his conscience. Worst yet, The Chicago Tribune published an article about how the late Dr. Anson asked for your help and how he could have saved him had he been there. Odell dropped out of public view, eventually being fired from Exxon and threatened with imprisonment if he didn’t find someone to sponsor his Quasar persona.
Odell went through a crisis of conscience, heavily drinking and living an apathetic existence for months. Under the guise of Stone Deth, he took part in underground street fights between Quasar powered and Q-tech augmented fighters. Stone Deth took on some of the most dangerous challenges out of a sense of guilt, seeking punishment for his dereliction. Stone Deth did well but left after he refused to take a dive and his sister was hurt because of it. His sister, Anissa, convinced him that he was being a fool, punishing himself out of a sense of guilt. Odell couldn't help but feel that Dr. Anson, and many others, could still be alive if he had chosen to use his powers for the greater good. It was then that he was approached by AEGIS Director Elaine Battle, who stated that she was moving forward with the creation of a new US-based team sponsored by AEGIS. Since then, G-Ode has re-dedicated his life to training and using the talents of both his body and his mind to help others.
