Eric Morden

"After thirteen pointless, meandering episodes of character-driven schlock, we can finally get to the show that everyone wanted to see in the first place... a superhero show! Right versus wrong... good versus evil... hero... versus villain... that's me!"

- Mr. Nobody

Eric Morden is a man who underwent an experiment by an ex-Nazi in post-war Paraguay to become a nigh-omniscient being known as Mr. Nobody.

Early life
During the 1930s, Eric Morden was a member of the supervillain team named the Brotherhood of Evil. During the 1940s, he disappeared while in South America.

Eventually, Morden was fired from the brotherhood and replaced by Monsieur Mallah, a super-intelligent gorilla that could speak French. Following this, his girlfriend Millie left him, declaring that he would always be a Nobody.

In 1948, Morden arrived in Paraguay seeking the expertise of Heinrich Von Fuchs, a Nazi scientist infamous for his "theoretical experimentation" on human beings. Morden paid Von Fuchs a great sum of money to be subjected to those experiments.

As they were conducting the experiment in a chamber, Von Fuchs instructed Morden to repeat "the mind is the limit" repeatedly as he exposed the man to an unknown energy source. As a result, Morden's body was distorted as he gained destructive powers.

He would go on to torment a group of heroes known as the "Doom Patrol", driving them insane and placing them in an institution.

Tormenting Niles Caulder
Some years later, in 2019, Mr. Nobody went to Cloverton, Ohio to torment Niles Caulder. While there, he opened up a portal leading to the White Space that began to envelop a large part of the road.

The New Normal
After his defeat atthe hands of Niles and the Doom Patrol, he and Ernest Franklin get trapped in a painting to serve as their prison for their crimes. However, by the times the Scants invade the Manor, the Doom Patrol find out from Ernest, that Mr. Nobody  is nowhere to be found.

Powers

 * Meta-human physiology: As a result of Von Fuchs's procedure, Eric Morden was exposed to other-dimensional energy, mutating his biology and granting him otherworldly abilities.
 * Vortex creation: Morden had the ability to create a vortex of energy that drew the nearby surroundings into it, teleporting them to his dimension.
 * Omniscience: Morden claims to be completely omniscient, as he serves as the narrator of the show. He further demonstrates this by revealing secrets about Rita Farr, Larry Trainor, and Cyborg when they are in his dimension.
 * Fourth-wall breaking: As the narrator, Morden is aware of the fact that he is a character in a show.
 * Time travel: Morden is able to display himself as a person or a narrator in any period of time by simply "combing through flashbacks".
 * Reality warping: Mr. Nobody has a somewhat limited ability to bend and alter the fabric of reality as he wants. He was able to create an alternate dimension inside of a donkey, create a buttocks-shaped balloon and turn police officers into piñatas. Mr. Nobody was also able to hack into Cyborg's mind and create fake memories so that he would slowly begin to turn against his own father.
 * Longevity: Morden has remained the same age since the 1940s.
