Crucible:Horus

From Crucible Codex

Real Name: Harold "Harry" Piffle

Background: Magical forces have swirled around Harry Piffle his whole life. And so has trouble! 

Growing up in Pacific City wasn't easy for young Harold. Awkward, bookish, and nerdy, he was easy prey for other kids at Nathaniel Nova High School.  But as Wonderos, Teenage Wizard, he was a different person: powerful, confident and clever. He soon joined up with other local teenage heroes in the Supernova Squadron.

For a time, using the name Magicker, he was part of the national superhero strike force called the Corsairs, with his former teammate Banzai. But he didn't care for the team's methods and left to pursue a solo career using the name Horus.

Later, he met up with Watchstar when that team was in pursuit of Madam Winter. Saving his hometown Pacific City from demonic marauders, he was offered full team membership. He has proved a valuable asset to the team time and again.
